So basically you can’t trade Schroder unless it’s for a guy like Porter

I swear it looks like his leg bends about the mid-calf in that one video. Guess it's just the angle or something.

First off: **** the Warriors for making us feel bad after whopping them.

Secondly: Russ is so out of shape, it's unreal. When Russell Westbrook gives up the ball at halfcourt and doesn't even look at the rim, you know he can't get there. I really hope he regains his condition soon.

Thirdly: I don't know how that's just an ankle sprain. It looked like his left leg was done for.

Fourthly: I like Dennis Schröder when he plays like this.

Fifhtly: I also like keeping Adams involved offensively.

Adams clearly didn't know how to deal with the double team at the start of the third quarter, if he keeps up his play he's going to start seeing them more often.

Hami only sprained his ankle?! The way he fell then behaved after the fall i thought he had haywarded his leg.

Great win. 1st time dubs have lost 4 in a row in the Kerr era! How sweet it is

What if it turns out the warriors were just Steph and Draymond and filler all along?

I’m so relieved about Hami’s Injury. It looked horrible in real time, but it just being an ankle sprain and not a possibly career altering injury is the best way to cap the night. Now I can go back to being happy about beating GS.

That's good to hear Diallo didn't suffer from any serious injury. I'm interested to see more of TLC who should take his minutes in the mean time, he has impressed in his few short stints.

He's being re-evaluated in December.

I think haberstoh did a piece on it, but they may just be Steph and filler. He is the only one of their stars to maintain an elite net rating without the others. I think it was something like with Steph on and the others off gsw is +14, and by contrast with KD on and the others off there -0.5.

The truth is that they have very little depth and are designed around what Steph brings so things look really bad right now.

So happy to hear Diallo is an ankle sprain. I was prepared for doomsday on that one. A 2 week injury or something like that would be amazing considering how that looked.

Great win. Schroder just gives this team another dimension. Between Westbrook, George and Schroder, they all can create shots. Even if the offense is still too heavy on "taking turns" at least you get 3 guys doing it so you can feed the hot guy and freeze out the cold guy. And the supporting players are as good as ever at filling in the gaps.

I did find myself yelling at the screen a few times at Westbrook. Get back on defense. Don't take that shot. WTF are you doing? I hope he gets his rhythm back as the season goes on. I imagine coming off surgery, having twins, getting hurt for a couple weeks and now coming back again makes it really hard. I will reevaluate in a few weeks. He shot horrible tonight, but only took 15 shots. Rather 5-15 than 8-25.
