When he joined the team.fact that he has nor improved much is down to coaching. He is still a better shooter than Podz currently.
I mean everyone is a better defender than Klay. Klay currently is a cone. His rebounding is horrific. Really I think Moody needs to prove that we don't need Klay for next year. He needs to make it completely obvious. It's obvious defensively, but Kerr for some reason doesn't care about defense now.
Is Moody a better shooter than Podz? Podz is a better on ball shooter, but Moody can get his shot off on more closeouts. Really it's probably a wash even though Podz has gotten more up than Moses ever has. But neither is really an elite shooter right now, though this being Podz 1st year gives him some room. Moses also hasn't had a solid rotation minutes so he's never gotten settled either so there's some room for improvement. But they aren't the next coming of the splash brothers.

Would absolutely love to start games like this, since for whatever reason in Q1, Dray has become a sharpshooter from deep. Closing the game would depend on how Moody/Wiggins were shooting that day, or if the team was protecting a lead. But that lineup has serious defensive potential. And if they want to go full defense for some stints, subbing out Kuminga for GP2 could work as well. Or if the opposing team has good defenders inside
Really it must be because he has his legs at the start of games. Then as the game wears on his legs are gone and he can't shoot.

Most teams without a decent big need to scramble a lot on defence. But warriors are only team that run and scramble on offence as well, leading to leg burnout very quickly and poor shooting later

Moody has had two very good games.
He's not yet Wiggins of the playoffs in 2022.
Team still needs that Wiggins, whether or not he plays again this season. And even if he did return fairly soon, no guarantee that Wiggins himself will regain that form either.

These two three good games against specific opposition will not cut it. Jk, Moody stink up games regularly and warriors are not good enough to compensate for that.
Also Kerr is master of deflecting blame on to the player. One of JK, Moody , will be blamed for any loss.
Kerr wants him to take a Looneyesque extension.Jester_ wrote:Sandy333 wrote:wco81 wrote:

I love that Kerr compared him to Looney
"If he works hard, he can be Kevon Looney!"
truly a masterclass in motivation

In the last 9 games before this one, his minutes are up to 19.1 and he's shooting 46,9/32.1/66.7 for 8.1 PPG.
That's like an average role player, never mind even a decent starter.
This is the guy people here wants to take away Klay's minutes? GMAFB.
You still have to score in this game and Moody's defense isn't good enough for the negligible factor he is on offense.
With Curry out, only Klay and JK can score. No gravity to create easy baskets either.
Even when Wiggins was shooting his best, his shot was barely reliable.
