Blaming jk for not diving on a loose ball first totally legitimate.


Jk shooting 2/6 on fts created this situation.

Wow. I didn't even realize how obviously Podz hot fouled on that last shot. The league fixed that game. Shameful.

I dunno.. I blame Curry.. Why are you shooting with some much time on the shot clock? There was like a 3 sec game time to shot clock difference.. he shot at like 9 seconds.

4. GP2 throws ball away
5. JK Foul
6. BP hits side of the backboard. Nice

Choke job by the entire team.

This team desperately needs a 2nd option / all star

disagree, anything Curry puts up is a good shot comparing to all other options. This is the worst offensive team in the league by far!

And better coaching. Kerr's coaching since the chip has been questionable at times. I see why Thompson finally said F it.

C'mon man, so many mistakes to go around. It's not fair singling Kuminga out any more than Draymond or Steph or Podz. They all had multiple terrible turnovers and mistakes on defense.

We were up so we really didn't need to score so in that case. Running down the game clock would be more important.

No way they can call that a foul upon review.


I actually agree with what Kerr just said. There's no chance Bill Kennedy was about to reverse that call. 0%. If he's bad enough to make the call he's not going to go back on it seconds later. And they just showed that Van Fleet did the exact same thing to GP2.

it does not matter man, when you have a chance you try to get something on the score board....If Steph dont shoot , then Green/JK/Podz/GP2 will put up the threes which pretty much means nothing. Worst scoring team in the entire NBA

You're right. Curry lost perspective.

It was a terrible call. 99% of the time it’s a jump ball.

Dray was pretty bad this game.

But I don’t understand why Kerr is feigning being upset. He didn’t want to win this game. He was using this game as a development game to see what jk can do. Not pretty.

I can't remember the last time the Dubs had that many shot clock violations... Lots of bad TO's, JK 2-6 on FT, the missed time out, etc., etc. At least JK HAD 6 FT's. Dubs took 9 all night. With Wiggs out, there just wasn't enough offense. JK is not a reliable second option. Dubs played really well in the 3rd quarter and part of the 4th. They just started the game really badly, and finished it the same way. As said above, without a trade, or two, this team is out in round one at best.

Yeah I agree it was a terrible call, just saying there's no chance the awful ref that made the terrible call was going to reverse it if challenged.

Not worried about the rockets but it would’ve been nice to play okc in a meaningful game to see what we want to do. I guess we get to feature jk against the mavs instead.

Everybody here talks about 2nd option, but what about 1st? So far one of the worst from PO teams.
