So Boogie, Livingston and Iguodala are all out tonight. I hope Kerr at least has enough bodies to make it through the game or he may have to suit up and hit a couple of 3's himself!

For all the talk about "no more KD iso's", those voices are pretty quiet so far; we would not be in this first quarter without KD's iso's.

For me, KD is the best individual offensive weapon I've ever seen since Jordan. So damn talented. Honestly, if there are like 5 players in history that you would benefit from their ISOs, KD would be top 2 at least on that list which is why I don't think that complaining about his ISOs make much sense. There is none really that ISO better than him apart from probably Michael Freaking Jordan lol. ISO still shouldn't be be the main gamestyle of the team but imo there is no issue letting KD doing his thing.

Anyone else just not a fan of damion me and McKinnie? Every time they’re in I feel we are wasting roster spots. They’re regular season fillers

Lee and looney are terrible offensive players. Lee should not be shooting this many shots.

You are in the minority on this board. There are some posters that are pretty outspoken in their feelings about it. I'm not saying our first option is to run a KD iso and ignore the other 4 players every time, but on nights like tonight when Curry and Klay are cold, it sure is great to have the option of having KD bail us out.

to be honest, most of those shots are not iso's. We made sure KD was switched into a smaller defender so that he can step into his shots.

You may have a different definition of an "iso".

Curry is shooting 38% from 3 over the last 5 games. Hopefully he can regain his stroke after the break; maybe the 3-point contest will help him with his mechanics. We need Steph the sharpshooter back.

iso is when he dribbles all the way and "crossover" his opponents for more than 5 secs while all the teammates are watching. If KD ends up with a mismatch because of the ball movement and he steps into a un-contested shot, that is not iso.

This is a classic “schedule loss”...I’ll be very impressed if the Warriors can pull it out.

Green and his airball 3s LOL...might as well count it as a TO.

Once again, thanks to KD scores keeping us in the game. Without Klay and Green, I don't know how we can compete next year without KD. Curry can't do it all. I hate to "pray" for Klay to get his shooting back to normal especially in the playoff. :banghead:

Yup, what KD brings is just not something that can be replicated.

Just not Klay’s night. He’s been on fire for like a couple months now...it’s weird seeing him have a bad shooting night.

Klay's brutal shooting night is making him very frustrated.

Looks like too many things are going against us down the stretch.

Can anybody tell me why Kerr doesn't start the 4th with Steph or KD? The 4th always starts slow for the Dubs when both are sitting on the bench.
