How is this on Curry? The grizzlies literally doubled him all game and he still scored 39.
The non-steph/draymond warriors were absolutely horrendous

No way, not by that one shot. He's still a good/ decent NBA player. He'd be a starter still on most teams.tdotrep2 wrote:wiggins career might be done when his contract ends, this is not good for him mentally

He's still useful and fairly good, though in clutch situations you'd want to go to him as a last resort.

Curry played well, but at the end of the day, the opposing PG went off (even though Curry wasn’t the one defending him for the most part, but that’s part of the problem).
When you’re a superstar and you play the Lakers the way you played them the other day (even with LeBron clearly not 100% at all), you don’t lose to the Grizzlies (no offense Grizz fans) at home. You’re the leader. You get the praise, and you get the hate.
Steph Deserves all the praise and none of the blame. He was a bit loose with the ball, had 7 turnovers, but look who he's playing with.
He was doubled teamed basically entire 4th and OT. Draymond airballed a game winning layup. Wiggins airballed a wide open 3. Jordan Poole dribbles it off his foot out of bounds etc.
Without Steph, I don't know what the Warriors are except hot garbage.

I still think he is over hyped. I see a good player but not a great player. I still see Steve Francis. Hopefully he proves me wrong.

Ja's defense was mad underrated in this game too.

GSW never got a comfortable 5+ pt lead in the 4th for Curry to unleash his magic

Wiggins man. The game log of his last touches are dreadful. He completely choked.

Ummm. If you can’t say he has the worst supporting cast then maybe you should stop watching basketball. Dude does more for his team than anyone in the league right now
So the other night vs the Lakers, Draymond was still the best defender in the league, and tonight, it’s back to “worst supporting cast”. Okay.

Definitely. Let’s see what Myers does. He can’t sit on his ass this offseason. Moves need to be made

Draymond Green alone precludes him from having the “worst supporting cast.”
They should have traded Wiseman for a current player who could have helped and they wouldn’t be an 8th seed most likely.

One thing I noticed from watching Ja is his composure. From his body language you can tell the moment is never too big for him.

Tom Gores' Securus faced a class action lawsuit in 2024. The company engaged in a "quid pro quo kickback scheme" with county jails in Michigan which banned in-person visits in order to maximize revenue from voice and video calls.

1) It's less than the MLE
2) He can be traded later
3) It's only __% of the cap
4) The cap is going up
5) It's only __ years
6) He's a good mentor/locker room guy
