He's probably made himself about an extra $50M+ in the last 2 1/2 games, I'm not even exaggerating.

Ouch, that Ant 3 hurt. Defended by our allegedly 2 best defenders too.


More importantly, he's now valuable in a sign and trade, if the warriors don't want to keep him.

Sometimes, there's nothing you can do on a great shot. As you should know from watching Steph so much lol.

I feel this game is going away from us

GPII has to be one of the dumbest Warriors this decade. He's lucky he's so talented on ball. His long list of idiotic plays is endless. It's also hilarious to constantly watch him wander in the court like an idiot and have someone like Dray point where he actually needs to be.

Rookies on their first season have a better understanding of Warriors sets than this guy.

Gp2 defense has completely fallen off


Edwards hasn't had any issue working over a smaller defender in GP2. I thought Kuminga has done better. But Kerr is working off reputation.

IMO put Kuminga your best athlete on Edwards and let GP2 operate as a free roam help defender where his defensive IQ and anticipation holds value.

Thank you Kerr for ruined season. Guys get mln dollars and can't incorporate player like Kuminga and overplay veterans to injury level...

Also f... o... to all haters from this forum and I hope GSW wont get nothing for Kuminga this summer.

its pretty terrible...if thats the way Curry is defended he would score 40 every game. the trap needs to come much much earlier. They just invited him to step into a great open shot

Butler not having to shoulder the primary scoring load in the 1st half should bode well for the 4th quarter. Let's hope it pays off.

Imagine if Kuminga had a coach that knew how to develop young players

Kuminga is our leading scorer by a comfortable margin and he's tied for the 5th most minutes. Great job Kerr.

They need Kuminga's offense too much to risk him taking some quick fouls on Ant.

Kerr is using him the right way - against smaller defenders.. that Reid as C is a terrible defense that he can make plays.. He is limited against bigger defenders.

I’m enjoying watching this game, and seeing JK have some success, even though i dont see a path to victory. How are they going to outscore Antman in the 4th when Butler and Dray are exhausted?

no he is not a good finisher around the basket when defended by bigger defender, fewer fouls are called and he is not a great FT shooter. Thats a big part of his limited offensive game
