after 34 mins on Mon, if Steph plays more than 25 tonight, Celebrini might take a dump at midcourt in protest.

Dray not being able to play makes the starting lineup a really interesting decision to follow

Interesting. Sticking with Draymond TJD. Hasn’t looked that good on defense, so I don’t know the point.
This movie is like the Rocky Horror Picture Show where everyone knows all the lines.

I dont get it either.. he, like JK, showed out last year because the team was a chaotic mess on both sides. JK can at least fall back on his iso scoring (mostly as a 4). TJD.. he's a lob threat with spotty defense and really poor rebounding. I guess the thought is that since GP2 is in to slow down Mitchell, they need more of an offensive threat at C? But Allen could eat him alive

What is this Kerr featuring Wiggs to begin games? Same starting result as Wednesday so far.
