Try to put yourself in Kerr's shoes...what do you think his actual issues with Moody is? I know he's a pretty average defender but Klay is a terrible defender, so sitting him for that reason doesn't hold any water. He's also a better passer, cutter, and rebounder than Klay. So that basically leaves shooting, Klay is an all-time great shooter but not anymore. He's basically regressed to Moody's level of shooting :lol:

Throw in la 2029 pick. I’d seriously consider it. Lmao that’s 2 players not in the current rotation

Seriously, I'd do it even without the pick (although I'd take it). Draymond and Moody are both valuable, but if they can't get onto or stay on the court anyway, what is there to lose? But I'd rather just trade Klay for the biggest expiring in the league so Moody could play.

When he got more minutes, Moses shooting went down or a lot of times, he didn't shoot nor attack the closeout.

Podz has earned regular minutes so it isn't that Kerr is against giving more minutes to young players.

Whose fault is it really that Moody has lost minutes to players like Podz? Last year he lost minutes to Lamb and Jerome.

That is why this thread was created, he just didn't deliver consistently.

Moody finally learned that in order to get playing time you have to publicly complain on this team.

He has to do it at the podium and the reporters have to pick it up I guess.

I think he needs to demand to go to Santa Cruz.

Have a string of 5 or 6 games where he averages 30 points + on high % shooting.

Let Kerr explain then. If the Dubs are rolling, no problem. If not?

That makes no sense bro. Literally no one cares about GL performance and he literally has already been there and done that.

Klay plays consistent minutes and is always playing with the Steph gravity well, Moses plays spotty minutes at best and always plays with the bench unit

Yes, he is a NBA caliber player and he's being completely misused. When Klay isn't hitting his shots he's next to useless. Moody plays a grinder's game. He's never going to be a star but he's going to be a guy than can get you 8-10 pts, some rebounds, a few assists, and will play defense and hustle. He's also not going play outside himself, which is something that Klay still does even at 33. Yes Klay can make some crazy shots, but at times he plays extremely selfish and doesn't reign himself in. Superstars when they aren't shooting well will get involved in other ways and will work inside out. Klay usually doe snot do that. He'll still take ill-advised shots.

He's basically a modern day Chuck Person

this is the organization's fault. they are accomplices of this situation. there's a coach who has clearly lost the plot, shows double standards, nepotism and missmanages the roster, and no one in the organization is doing jacksh** to address it.

Moody's also a rhythmic shooter... watching him at Arkansas, when he could catch, do his little dip and go up with a 3, he was money. He very rarely gets wide open 3s and when he does, he stripes at 40%

So what plays would work well there? A pick & pop with Curry, Klay, or CP3 could get him some really good looks. Since he'd be screening a guard's man, they likely wont be able to seriously contest his 7' wingspan shot.. you know who was able to work this genius idea out? ERIC **** MUSSELMAN

But nah, they just throw Moody into the corner, and no one looks for him, even on drives. He's played almost exactly like he did in college.. so the question becomes, what did they were drafting back then? Kerr treats him like a Klay backup only and since he isn't Klay, he therefore isnt needed. Zero adaptability, zero deviation from original idea, and now zero minutes and minimal trade value for a former lottery pick who's actually played well since the end of last season

Some fans were actually chanting for Moses and gave him a standing ovation when he was put in in the 4th quarter after CP got injured.

Then the first shot he puts up some weak under handed shot which is blocked easily.

Then a 3 off the back rim, was a good attempt off the catch.

Hope he can show improvement, should get some minutes.

But there surely would be players drafted later who’d be contributing more, like Murphy.
