I don't see great movement.

Try some prunes, or maybe Ex-Lax.

Not the best day, but happy we stink early on rather than later on. Championship hangover is real.

I find it suspect as **** that he gets into foul trouble now when it wasn't some huge issue during his long career. Saying that, he needs to not get those extra 1-2 reach-in fouls. It's really dumb & unnecessary.
Draymond has been playing like ass so far this year. I'm going to throw my chair at him if he shoots a 3 with 10+ seconds left on the clock. You're a below average shooter with the 3 best **** shooters in the league. STOP SHOOTING!

The biggest thing is that we don't want them to build bad habits. So hopefully they get all of their laziness out now at the beginning of the season and ramp up slowly down the stretch. I would totally be fine with playing .500 ball up until Christmas.

KD is averaging more than 6 TOs..umm he is handling the ball a lot more than he used to and i am not sure if that is a good idea.

Gary St. Jean says it may take 3-4 weeks to recover from the China trip.
Even before that, a lot of the players had a lot of demands on their offseason so they were all traveling internationally. Combine that with a shortened training camp and that trip to China.
You just have to hope they will get sharper. They're shooting well but defense is not there.

That's an easy one to fix. He shouldn't be holding the ball too much and Westbrook/Harden level TOs will never be acceptable. I better not see more than 4TOs next game out of him.
The GB board is comically hilarious in terms of people overreacting in the KD and Curry topic.

Wake me up and tell me what their record is about 20-25 games in... much better barometer.
While its disturbing to see this team play this horribly, its only 3 games in, not the end of the world, and a good wake up call to them that they are not going to waltz to a 67 win season.
What I find interesting is that so many other teams have gone fully triple down on shooting the 3.
I bet our first 3 opponents shot more 3s than the Warriors did.
If the Ws play good close out defense, those teams get destroyed.

Unless their egos have gone to the moon, it's inevitable. I think the 2-3 weeks as written above is a good number until the team locks in defensively. It's also good that the Warriors are the best 3 point defending team in the league for years now.
