Draymond, GP2, Moses listed as game time decision. For the Pacers, Nesmith out and Sheppard GTD.

This looks like a pretty good matchup, expecting a competitive game.

Also, is it just me or does it feel like there is never a game anymore where 2 teams are completely healthy, or very close to it? Feel like that used to happen a little more often.

Fitz crackin me up calling out TJD being a nice guy and asking how he can be more nasty/angry. It's 100% true though -- we need angry and aggressive TJD!

I'm curious to see how jk and podz come out to play. Do they figure it out to play better system ball or do they just continue doing their own thing.

Easier to just play them off the bench away from steph and dray. But that's just me.

The ball is moving well but the spacing is still terrible. They’re just hoping dray or tjd will shoot us out of it. And dray is obliging.

Dray is a problem. Sloppy on offense and not getting the defense we are accustomed to.

BTW Steph with 0 shots in the first 4 minutes... if Dray wasnt screening for him, no one is. But hey, TJD had 15 pts last game and a couple dunks!

Majority of fans are boxscore watchers. They see the blocked shots and 3 point shooting. But ignore how bad the defense and rebounding is on the floor with him.
