Aside from the misplaced passes, Iggy keeping the Warriors in it. Curry looks tired.

Draymond is such a beast. Easily an all-star this year.

Klay better come back quick, that 9 for 27 does not look good for Curry

The offball D on Curry is really tiring him out. He usually get's some space, but because Crowder has been all over him from the inbound all the way onto the other side, he is having a hard time getting the ball, and if he does the double comes so quickly that he can't even create his dribble with his lack of energy to get out of it to create.

Great D set up by Stevens.

This is what Dellevadova does to guard Curry; he defends him hard even when Curry doesn't have the ball.

I think teams will start to hone in on this.

The difference today though is when Steph passes out of the double usually, he has the second best 3 point shooter in the NBA in Klay to pass to, and without him, they don't have a reliable shooter.

Washington is 3 games below 0.500

The all power forward team had an amazing opportunity with Barnes and Klay out, glad they lost record wise.

Trade Barnes, trade Thompson, they're winning without them.

EDIT: Raps may be able to get in on one of those trades.
