    Not overly worried but I do think there are major deficiencies with the roster.

    You got to become a gold fish dealing with NBA games.

    One thing to be excited about.

    Good self awareness. As a team we are awful at recognizing how clogged the lane is. But things should open up once, though IF, we start shooting the 3 ball better. Still we need to learn to play the game with more feel. Jabari and Jalen in particular have very little feel in terms of seeing an open spot and attack it. They just do their go to move and once that's taken away, Jabari goes for a tough fadeaway and Jalen similarly, though his athletic ability sometimes saves him around the basket. They need to work on counters and not just go with their go-to move. On the other hand, Sengun could use a bit more of going to his go-to moves.

    Bari's only weapon is this turn around mid range jumper or fadeaway.

    You can win SL games with that but it is hardly enough.

    Moral Victory! I could see that being a theme this season while we're all still in the honeymoon phase with Udoka.

    I'd be the first to say that I respect his work ethic. It's well known that he he practices thousands of shots a week. That being said, he's too cocky and nauseating to watch for me so I skipped watching the game. I was looking at the box score and this video is a perfect example of why he just makes watching him annoying.

    Steph Curry is a great ball playing a**hole. I don’t know how anybody outside of San Fran and his family can actually like this guy. That was such a classless thing to do last night. Reminded me of that othe a**hole Kelly pouting at Correa.

    The NBA consists of fairweather fans, I think those people like showboating, it is only the die hards that really despise other players mocking them while mocking other players on opponents' teams.

    Most players want to rub it in your face, that is how the culture is......it is not Asia or Canada where people are apologizing for winning against you!

    Steph cooking the Houston Rockets only means Thanksgiving is near. Did the 'Know Ball' crew isolate another bust last night? Sengun couldnt do it all alone? Heyyyy 95% free throw shooting!!! POP CHAMPAGNE BOYS!!

    Sengun's our starting center, one of his responsibilities is rebounding. If we're constantly getting outrebounded then most of the criticism goes to Sengun.

    It's those Draymond dirty plays to get the man open is what I'm concerned about. Steph deserves credit for being great but he doesn't need dirty helpers.

    Correct. Sengun gets absolutely no blame for anything. I wonder why his fans continue this trend?
