Randle was hitting contested threes against us. Of course he misses wide open ones against everyone else.

Lol.

Lots of dumb turnovers for Minnesota late in that 1Q. If they cut those down, can easily be double digit lead by halftime.

Warriors employing the hack and grab strategy and hope the refs don't call it. And the refs are doing exactly that

Kuminga had Conley on him, but let's have Pjmski brick a 3 instead
