    Warriors really need to find a good player in the 2/3 spot and move Wiggins (good luck) or Oubre cause they're literally killing their defense and on offense it just look like they have no idea on how to play winning basketball.

    Maybe it's because of his age or rust, but Curry looks really slow and lacking any quickness.

    Even his shots don't have the same arc and effortless and quick release.

    He might have lost at least a step and it shows when he drives or attempt a layup.

    One positive for the warriors, most time curry runs a pick and roll, something positive happens.

    The negative (aside from oubre) kerr rather run his motion offense and have curry run around and screen MORE than. He has him handle the ball.

    Variety and being multi faceted is great, but with this roster, you might want to lean on the curry pick and roll more.

    Coming out of Halftime:
    "Giannas had a shitty first half, Herbie. . . please make up some **** to explain why it was not as bad as it looks. Keep this positive narrative going so we can give him a third near worthless MVP." - Commentor.


    Giannas misses a layup
    Herbie: _______
    Giannas gets a easy uncontested basket in transistion
    Herbie: As the game goes on Talent rises

    those are the excuses I would expect from curry stans. The fact is curry is playing in a situation in which top 5 player would have this team beating the bucks. Ben Taylor overrated off ball gravity when there should be new metric which dictates which players are the best at dictating the tempo at which a game is played. Guys like LeBron. Luka and harden would be near the top of this metric. Any decent to great guard can score a billion points, it’s the guards who can get you a big shot to stop the bleeding and get to the line to keep the score close. Curry also can not play defense and still have insane shooting numbers. That’s where he misses guys like klay, iggy, and even Livingston.

    Kerr doesn't seem to realize movement doesn't work when the other players can't shoot well enough and the ball handler is wiggins/oubre/pascal.

    Oubre is very disappointing. I expected more from him.

    Wiggins and Oubre should be SSSOOOO MUCH BETTER

    Are you really out here acting like the Bucks are some scrub team? As if they're not one of the best teams in the NBA, fielding one of the best players in the world?

    I get that you dislike Curry, but to say "[insert top 5 player here] + this Warriors team > Bucks" is completely farfetched.

    This isn't GSW getting destroyed by a Hornets team.
