I think it's just referring to the league's tight policy on ref criticism. They want stock answers regarding ref performance, so this seems Iggy's way of making his displeasure with the refs known without being fined.

Maybe. I think it's hard to see his "master" comment as anything other than a shot at Kerr, no matter what he says to try and reel it back

A reporter was also clarifying his comments for him on Twitter and he retweeted the reporters tweet and wrote "#fortheculture".

Just saw on ESPN the Warriors are scoring 103 ppg shooting 44% from the field and 33% from 3 without KD

It seems they've been running much less Steph-Dray pick and roll, or pick and roll with Steph in general. Does anyone know if the numbers agree with me here?

Even if that is the reason, going straight to racial undertones and talking about "master" and stuff is pretty damn idiotic and really inexcusable.

It doesn't surprise me though, this team is one of the most entitled, sore losers around. People got on LeBron for his comments after 2011 but anytime the Warriors have tough losses, they and their family members start talking like crazies. Anyone remember the Ayesha "I saw it live, this is rigged" comment after game 6 :lol:.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I also think this team is going through the malaise other title contenders do after winning a title. Yeah, they added KD but this is all a distraction for us fans during the RS. When the playoffs start, this team is going to run through the West assuming KD is back by WCF.

They seem to, though it's not a huge change either. Don't know about with Dray.

In '17 Curry has 5.8 per game, 0.90 ppp

In '16 he had 6.7 per game, 1.11 ppp

The igoudala thing would get nothing more than an eyebrow raise and shoulder shrug in normal times... but with the backdrop of them being in the middle of their worst regular season stretch in 3 years it's just going to be bigger

Really disappointing stuff by Iggy. I expect that from Draymond, but he's supposed to be better than that. How effing entitled and spoiled can you be. Not a good look at all.

Yes I love it. What will give in first? The mental grit or those legs from jacking up jumpers. Time to put Steve Kerr to the test. We've seen how these guys handle adversity already.

I think iggy has stopped giving a damn about what he says and is trolling the media about it.
I came here to do two things: get lost and slice **** up & I'm all out of directions.

If he's truly stopped giving a damn then he should say whatever is on his mind and stop acting like a race troll. :dontknow:

There were a million other ways to make his point but the whole master comment is very bizarre but I don't think it's him just "trolling", I do think there is something behind it especially when you consider Green's comments regarding Dolan and the Knicks. And I completely dislike Dolan and think he's a (Please Use More Appropriate Word) for doing what he did to Oakley.

Not worried at all. Curry and Thompson are slumping hard, but I'd rather them get it all out now than later in the playoffs. Add in the no Durant and awkward, long road trip factors and it's no wonder we look mundane. Bad luck compounded on top of more bad luck.

And you guys are making too much of the Iggy comments, but that's par for the course for this forum. Have at it.

Can't blame Kerr for resting his players.

They are probably going to obliterate them in the 2nd half, but now trailing at halftime at home vs Philly after all that has gone on recently.

Even without Durant, seeing this offense sink so low is mind boggling. This is the core of a team that won 67 and 73 games.

They're down double digits now. I still expect them to win this game, if they don't I would be legitimately shocked. Rarely can any result really stun you in an 82 game marathon, but with all that has been surrounding them of late and with the rest they've gotten I just expected them to take it out on philly tonight, all their recent frustration just unleashed. Point spread was 16 1/2. Philly has controlled this game all night

Wide open paint on defense, pass into the front seats on offense. What is going on.
