“I don’t know that. Apparently someone else does, but I don’t.”

This is it

I think Chris Paul is entering an era of his career where coaches trust him because he makes them feel safe when he’s on the court but in actuality he’s hurting the team

that's what it felt like when shaq was on the suns

Guess who was the mastermind behind that trade lol

full circle!

Thinking about how Steve Kerr couldn’t find a single minute for Jonathan Kuminga in the fourth quarter. But Michael Malone benched MPJ for Peyton Watson in the closing minutes.

Two dramatically different approaches. One that makes sense. One that doesn’t. https://t.co/W41R3yBQqq

After sitting the final 18 minutes of Nuggets loss, Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga has lost faith in Steve Kerr and no longer believes that Kerr will allow him to reach his full potential, sources say.

oof

kerr has given kuminga more than enough evidence to draw that conclusion

ffs

Yeah, Kerr's treatment of JK is indefensible at this point. I'm guessing we don't see either of them back next season at this rate.

wow not sure ive seen this kind of reaction to one reg season coaching decision before particularly re a non star player

its not one game
started last year

i mean sure but still

"The people around Moses are frustrated with the lack of a role and consistency...For the lack of a better term it feels like he's the 'sacrificial lamb.' Whenever there's a logjam, he's the guy that falls out."

celtics built their current team on trading pierce and garnett something for the dubs to think about

tonight vs the pistons should be.... interesting.

I guess a big question is if Kerr finishes out this season (at doesn't get re-signed) or Lacob gets impatient and fires him (and hires Luke Walton).

ive been a dray apologist long enough but not even i can stomach the latest pr spin. if ever there was a correct/justified instance of 'just shut up and play ball'... this would be it.

perfect opportunity to just play ball

he's really the ultimate version of a guy who can't help himself

Even if they make a big trade I just don't see this team making it to the play-in. All the vets look washed and their defensive philosophy is to dare the other team to shoot open threes.

steph is kinda showing signs of cookedness too which is the real problem

hes played much worse since dray was suspended without him they just dont have enough guys who can dribble

the rest of the team being bad is not great, but if steph isn’t steph it’s all a moot point

he’s not getting younger

gonna be sad to watch him wither away on a mediocre team

I kind of hope they lose a lot between now and the trade deadline to squash any temptation of making a win now move.

I mean they kinda have to? They owe it to him

steph is kinda showing signs of cookedness too which is the real problem

yeah he doest seem super engaged

I mean they kinda have to? They owe it to him

Well I'm coming from the cold-blooded angle that he should get traded to a contender.

thats objectively what should happen

steph has said he want to play til hes 40 and hes 35 now so whats the play

ownerships gotta be glancing between the win loss record and the luxury tax payments and wondering if its worth it, maybe theyll try to cut payroll and hope steph demands a trade so they can start over

As @sportklub just confirmed, Dejan Milojević has died.

huge bummer. jokic’s old coach in europe. warriors have canceled their game

wow man wtf

rip, jeez

same age as yours truly

that's awful

So terrible. Way too young.

Looks like they're postponing tomorrow night's game against the Mavs, too. It turns out they were at a team dinner when he had the heart attack, so all the coaches and players were there watching helplessly. Can't imagine what that must be like.

jesus

damn, how tragic :(

seems like this shook a lot of people around the league. by all accounts he seemed like a genuinely good dude.

the warriors next game is now a week from tomorrow, so theyll have 9 days off between games. hopefully that gives everyone a little time to grieve

whoa how did they end up with a week between games in the first place?

Well they’re supposed to play mavs tomorrow and that got postponed. So it was gonna be Friday- Wednesday
