Wolves shooting 20% from 3 and Warriors shooting 50% from 3 so far...I will take a 4 pt lead. Just having Curry on court is enough for generating so many wide open 3 pt looks for some of these other Warriors players

Bad first half from Ant. Hopefully he can pick it up in the 2nd

We need Ant to come to the party in the third. We know GSW thrives in the 3rd. We need our big 3 to weather the storm and keep it close.

V8 is playing with MCD and KAT. How is that different from playing with Randle and KAT?

Warriros are loading up hard to stop Ant. He needs to work around it but they are making that a priority, part of the reason why Towns is going off. Normally teams are trying to stop KAT.

Your half right. They are stacking the paint to shut down Ant. That said, he can kick to the corner for open 3. Ant needs to keep attacking and take what the defense gives him.

It’s definitely the next step in Ant’s progression. He’s gotten to the point where teams will game plan for him. His next step to be a superstar is to improve at learning how to beat a game plan.

Randle guards the paint, KAT roams and does his high wall nonsense. Dlo, Ant, V8 guard the perimeter. Works much better than what we have been doing.

Also Randle adds scoring and rebounding that MCD lacks. Even if you give up 10 more points on defense, you save at least that much in second chance scoring, and with the increase in our paint scoring.

Would love nothing more than to see us blow up in this second half and get a comfy win.

And now you’ve lost the defensive switching that has been so effective.

You must realize how much it would hurt to have two guy who hunt O boards in a lineup like that. We don’t need more o boarding in the starting lineup. On top of that if you don’t get the o board you now have even less defense going back on the break.

Nice 4 point lead at the half playing at GSW.

CarMax commercial about Steph being the 7th pick seems particularly painful for tonight’s game,
