Fortunately the warriors D is about as bad as ours.


Pat actually blocked a Klay three at one point but the majority of his attempts all came with us dying on screens. We have to be one of the worst in the league at that this season.

I'm hoping most of the Podz and Saric easy drives to the rim was just an effort thing because that was quite poor all night.

Defense improving, only allowing 118.

**** coach needing to play his stars way too many minutes to ensure victory against the dregs of the league isn't a good sign

Warriors should leave Atkinson behind so we can have him for the rest of the year.

Anyone think Brook is going to last all season play this many minutes at his age?

if we had to replace Khash who, in your opinion, would be a better fit for him?

Letting Ajax finish the game was another good call by Griff.

Some one who doesn't fall to the floor or dribble off his foot?:)

i wonder why Marjon isn't playing. He's had some bad games and some really bad mistakes at times, but he's also flashed a decent amount. We used a 1st on him instead of trading for a proven vet. We absolutely need to give him a chance to develop.

We don't need to trade Khris, we need to limit the amount of time he spends dribbling the ball at near shoulder-level height. Catch and shoot and quick 1-2 dribble moves off of screens. Cut the rest of his weird usage in half and let Dame do what he is better than Khris at.

When his stars won't do it in fewer minutes, having them learn to do to it in more minutes is more or less what any coach would do, so he can move on and teach/incorporate 6-9 into the whole schmear (see Green & Livingston minutes) and like it or not so the three stars get the burn they to climb down off old habits and sync up so's they can do it more efficiently.

His leash is WAY shorter than our other bench players. It's really unfortunate. Doesn't seem like we have much interest in letting him develop now the we have Andre. It's weird because I think they are both good at the things the other isn't good at and they seem to play well when they are both on the floor together.

With 31 seconds in the half Dame was on the line when Livingston came in and it looked like Dame rolled his eyes.. then 8 seconds later Liv commits an illegal defense lol.. I could have read that wrong idk

We've "showcased" him already and now we're keeping him healthy as trade bait.... just hypothesizing

I agree with this too... but who is going to tell KM to cease and desist? Also these suggestions help on offense but will he be healthy and fast enough to play playoff defense again?
