Sleep walking through the first quarter. Don't have their sea legs yet.

Jimmy looks old tonight.

Rough game so far. We look really small.

Draymond has been ass on D tonight.

Curry the only guy to show up so far.

Dubs look short and slow so far but it’s a long game. Magic suck from 3 but have hit a few….I would defend inside the arc and make them continue to make them.

I watched first quarter up until 20-24 magic. I said to self “self, despite the score looking close, this game is not at all close”. Then i fast forward to now and see GS down 15ish.

Im not sure 35yo Jimmy is going to be enough. This game is showcasing the limitations against a full squad.

Maybe this post can reverse jinx things and lead to a comeback win.

Good TO by Kerr. Curry looked gassed after that flurry.
