    Me too! This is the swagger I'd love to see out of him more often. You can tell he's playing with the thought of "I'm better than this guy." Jaygup's playing the same way against Kuminga. Almost like they're out to prove just how much better they are than them.

    The thing I'd like to keep up in the second half is forcing the ball to the rim. Who cares if you get blocked once here or there, or if you miss. Take it strong. These guys don't have the rim protectors to stop you. I was afraid we'd start forcing threes, but we didn't. We took 11, which is a small amount for us, and I think with the way they're playing D, that's what you do, take the ball to the hoop.

    Big thing Silas is gonna have to discuss is adjusting to their zone defense, and then on defense ourselves expecting a Steph flurry at some point and preventing him from getting into that roll.

    How did Red Panda discover she could do this? What situation are you possibly in that you decide to try to throw a bowl on your head using your foot while riding a really tall unicycle??

    They're gonna start setting moving picks for Curry in the second half

    I came to post the same thing. I have been very critical of KPJ, but I thought his last game was one of his best games of the year and this game is even better so far. He just looks very controlled, although 2 of his layups he forced and got swatted.

    I'm starting to get concerned about Green again, and now Senguin. I'm hoping once Gordon and Wood are gone, things will really open up.

    Wood stole the ball before the shot clock expires so that’s not a shot clock violation. Should have been a play on but the ref blew the whistle inadvertently.

    Rockets playing well for sure but the Warriors are also playing sloppy ball. Unforced errors galore.
