Podz hitting a 3 is a good omen.

Why not go with the tried and true guy in Looney? You gotta lock in early.

Stop being passive aggressive. We already know there's a rat's chance in hell of winning this thing.


I'm not sure how that's being passive aggressive? We're on the same side here lol.

Anyway, TJD looks pretty good so far for all the would-be NBA HOF coaches in this thread.

TJD just erased a Draymond defensive mistake letting Randle drive past him, good job.

My assumption is that he wants Looney available for closing situations, so he starts with TJD, as Looney unfortunately can't play the whole game. At some point, they need TJD to steal some minutes.

Better than a shot clock violation but that Buddy drive was rough.

JK played some pretty good defense on Ant and then Reid, but then reached in unnecessarily, gotta keep that hand out of the cookie jar.

Big boy defensive board from JK and finished with the slam on the other end. Great effort on both ends!

Smh Jimmy passes up the open corner 3 to Looney, only to end up with a worse Santos 3.

Seems like we don’t want a rock fight type of game.

Wow they didn't challenge that? Guess Kerr is waiting for one where Draymond clearly fouls someone and demands a challenge anyway.
