As for GS, i would rather Curry take a lot of those long 3s guarded than any other Warrior shooting a corner 3.

Yeah, Curry & Quinn are the only ones I’d have faith in. Maybe Cousins.

I’m actually surprised the Warriors bought it back this close before the half. Shows how much the Raptors aren’t even focused enough to smell blood. They were up by like 14 then shot brick after brick for like 4 minutes.
All while the Warriors scoring output looks extra shakes.


kawhi is too injured to takeover so everybody else has to do it and they're not always up to it. but i don't see how the warriors win. curry has 25 points on 53.8 shooting and 50.00 from 3, but the team as a whole is shooting 40.00 and 26.3 from 3. that's how bad everyone else is.

You guys gotta give some slack to DMC. How many guys look good coming back from a huge injury? Gordon Hayward's looked like turd all year.

So, re-signing Klay for the max is a no-brainer. Dray though? Tough time without floor spacers.
