@Golden State

We’re at .500 now. If we’re lucky we win 2 of those 5. Much more likely we win 1 and going 0-5 is very possible.
48 games in, will be 53 after those. We’ll be 25-28 or 26-27 when the roadie concludes.
This season has been a huge letdown.

Like they gave the guy two full weeks purely for reconditioning and he's been back playing for 17 days on top of that.
That's a month, ya know?
There’s nothing like real time my boy. Scrimmaging against your teammates all the time is not like playing different teams, players in a serious game.
Even still, this was his 9th game back. 3 1/2 weeks of real games at this point. Any sort of out of shape rust really should be gone.

KCP in 36 minutes is severely underwhelming in a double OT game if Herro is going to drop 30.

When is Paolo going to get fully conditioned? This was his 9th game since injury, almost 20 days have gone since he started and scored 34pts against bucks.
Today he just sucked, that's it. and i dont know what conditioning does he need to shoot better than 60% from the ft line?
I'm giving him some grace because man did miss like 30 games and majority of the time he couldn't do anything.....shape wise he's there but I don't think he has his rhythm back yet.... Before the injury no free throw issues he looked good... Since coming back he's been off but I think it's more of a rhythm thing not so much a conditioning issue, though that is a part of itbyeganyo wrote:RookieStar wrote:It was frystrating but not really mad.

He was +21 in 22 minutes.
