    Our #1 is Alpi. FVV thinking he is the #1 with more shots than anyone else is the problem.

    You don't need to trade assets. They got him for just 2nds. They traded him just to get him out of Miami. We have spare contracts in Jeff Green, Tate and Landale to match.... it would've been basically free.

    Green was allowed to bully as were the Warriors in general. They got away with the physical intrusion.

    I don't even think the game was crazy unfair by the refs. Jalen missed a ton of open looks and he kept trying to bait for fouls instead of finishing strong.

    Somehow he has it in his head that he is the veteran and that he would make the homerun play. He tried for it several times rather than moving the ball. He played very selfish tonight. I wish Udoka would of played Aaron Holiday 10 minutes rather than play FVV 40 ****ing minutes and let him shoot that many shots. That was ridiculous.

    Hopefully, this is a wake up call for Udoka not to trade cam.

    It was a frustrating loss, but this game was a carbon copy of several other regular-season performances: a bad offensive stretch fueled by turnovers, team-wide anemic shooting, spirited D, no composure at the FT line, and inexperience all around = loss.

    We might be able to wear down GS, but to get there, we'll have to plug some holes we haven't been able to fill all year.

    And the game ball goes to Steven Adams. What a performance.

    Jalen's babymama is messing with his head. Dude got used for a paycheck and now he can't focus on ball.

    the offense was so shameful

    only reason we didn’t lose by 20+ points is because we got a whopping 22 offensive rebounds

    the most infuriating thing is that we continue to get owned by Curry, and the Warriors aren’t even that good

    it’s literally Steph, Jimmy, and a bunch of bums

    they’re playing Buddy Hield for fcks sake

    we’re out here struggling to score 60 points after 3 quarters at home, it’s inexcusable

    SOSDD....We got a guy who hit all 3 of his shots,all 4 of his FT...then we got FVV who was 2/13 from 3 and 4/19 overall. He's going to give you a game with decent shooting % about 1 of every 7-8 games. ...but keep jacking them up.You have JG who is 0/4 from 3 and 3/15...more of the same. Amen 0/4 on FT...horrible defense on Curry...did hit 5/9 from the field.Good game by Adams and Bari and Sengun.

    Amen has his worst game in months and still flirted with a triple double.

    Jalen and Fred just sucked. Only thing they flirted with was the side of the rim.

    The 2 shots by Curry were will defended but I hate that it was due to poor officiating.

    They don't have offensive sets and they don't have shooters. That Amen/Adams/Sengun lineup was atrocious in terms of spacing. Say what you want to say about Jalen Green, certainly there are thing that he can do better, but I don't think he was put in the position to be effective.

    But you are locking the team in terms of cap space in the offseason when there are much better options. KD is 100 times better than jimmy butler even at this stage in his career.

    We aren't a championship contender even with Jimmy Butler on this roster. Celtics Thunder Cavs
