Thunder have scored exactly 35 pts in each of the first 3 quarters.

Really want to see them score exactly 35 again in the 4th quarter too.

OMG before looking at this game thread starters I did not even realize a negative PER was possible. That will change after todays game by a huge chunk! Good for him.

2017 Curry had more of a burst than this 31 yr old 2019 Curry. I think those long seasons of playing into June every season has taken its toll on his body especially when he’s been asked to do so much over the years.

Not everyone can be like LeBron and maintain the level of play after all these long seasons.

I realize the competition was g league but shai has some very good moves. Bazley looked good early but seemed to get rattled after a couple of mistakes. He has a bit of a side spin on his shot. Ferg played better. Adams looks lost. I want to believe in Diallo but I just don’t see it.

So weird how bad they looked. Curry, Dray, and Dangelo were all stars last season.

In regard to Dlo, fit matters. In regard to draymond, fat matters.

Also shows health and effort do matter. I do not care how talented guys are if they do not hustle they will not win too often.

Dubs might just get a high level lottery pick. That was next level bad.

If the warriors actually suck all season will steph get any criticism, or will it be all about how bad the roster and coaching is?

Forget Curry the guy I'm interested in is Draymond. For years a lot of people have said this guy wouldn't amount to much if you were on a bad team. I'm really interested to see how the narrative goes about him and how he handles it all season long.

Everybody except the 'enlightened' crowd already hates Draymond. There's no question he'll get heat.
