I thought the Warriors were done with losing 4th quarter leads.
Huh, surprised. I expected the Warriors to win this game.

I am not sure what the Warriors are.

Kerr is absolutely complicit.
I’m about to start blaming mdj for not sending Klay away whether by trade or send him home. I don’t care at this point.

I knew Kerr would lose the game , he is complacent and plays bad lineup, thinking we can close. We are going back to squareone


I absolutely hate it. It's been happening all year long. For some reason, he sits the starters at odd times during the 4th while the opponent always plays theirs.

ive been saying . Green needs to play 38 mins, Curry needs to play 38 mins.. we play the game like we dont want to make playoffs. Like what are we doing out there? We are out there like we are a 60 win team just wants to take a few days off...

What? Ignore the start and middle of the fourth. Did you skip the entire end of that quarter? Wiseman, oubre, and wannamaker combined hasn't had a minute stretch like that.

Maybe Kerr was jet lagged and needed to take a nap. It’s like he forgot that Klay should only play 24 minutes.

Dray minus 12
Kuminga minus 9 (it’s Klay’s fault)
Wiggins minus 9
Klay minus 7
Curry minus 6

Looney Plus 7
Podz plus 5
Payton plus 3

Quinones minus 1
Saric 0
Moody plus 4 (see, Moody should get Klays minutes and then we would have won this game)

Trace DNP, ( see, this loss is Kerr’s fault)

Powell killed us in the 4th. Open threes after open threes.

GP2 should have played 25 mins ... there is just so many dumb mins handed out to bad players as we dont care..i thought this team wants to make playoffs?

1. Klay
2. Kerr.
3. Kuminga

Those 3 were just brutal tonight. None of them should have gotten minutes.

Podz, Atkinson, and gp2 or moody in the 4th and we win.

Klay should play 20 mins ....these lineups are just flat out negative since we cant defend the three point line.

We also meant to lose this game...since Klay made 2 shots in the early 4th and then never made anything positive after. This has kept him in the game and made Kerr a believer. Sometimes missing shots could be a good thing and making them is bad..

I made a separate post, but I'll also say it in here. TJD getting minutes, especially in the 4th, would have won the game for the Warriors. He's their ONLY rim protector.

Just criminal that Kerr refuses to play this guy. And yes, of course, closing with Klay also cost the Warriors. We all thought he had figured that part out by now.

Kerr just continues to make the worst decisions imaginable and inventing new and different ways to lose games. What a shame because a good coach has this team fighting for the top spot in the West.

Another stinker from Steve Kerr. Trying to get plus minutes for Looney and Thompson. And we have some players like draymong involved as well. There is no defender within 10 feet of Looney whenever he gets the ball . It is 4 players plus one stationary object when he is playing.
The difference of the game was also Harden was able to command double teams and steph didnot

Check out Kerr's reaction. Steve, you got just what you deserved for having Klay in the game.

It would have been interesting if after the 30th drive & kick for an open 3 or all those offensive rebounds the Clippers ate up in the 4th, Kerr maybe tried to change something up.

Would have just been so so special. Just some small tweaking.

It shouldn't be that hard by now for him to figure out what the best lineups and rotations are. And yet, the answers continue to escape him because he's blinded by some strange loyalty to certain players.
