    Only thing I like about the Warriors is that they are still anti-Trump and know the meaning of civility. Like the Eagles, the Warriors refused to visit the White in previous championships with Trump in office.

    Wait so Draymond isn’t ejected? A flagrant isn’t a technical?

    I’m so confused wtf?

    Isn’t that 2 techs?

    It is one of those series with the 2 Seed closer to the 5th seed and the 7th seed looking like a 4th seed.

    I’m honestly losing my mind watching this.


    Udoka has no idea how to generate buckets right now. We came into this postseason with zero expectations — this was always about growth and gaining playoff experience. So why aren’t we using that to actually experiment?


    This is the time to try different players and lineups. Play Cam. Play Sheppard. Play Holiday, Tate, even Uncle Green here and there — shake things up! It’s wild how stubborn Udoka is being with these rotations. We’re not even supposed to be contending right now, so why are we treating this like it’s Game 7 of the Finals with a locked-in rotation?


    Kerr has been switching up his lineups constantly, giving different guys chances. Meanwhile, we’ve got real talent just rotting on the bench. Cam, Sheppard, Holiday — we have weapons, and one rotation tweak here or there could’ve easily been the difference between being down 3-1 and being up 3-1.


    And I’m sorry — but Jalen Green? I’m done. He’s too much of a liability. If he’s not scoring, he’s dragging us down. Replace him with Cam and let’s start grooming a real two-way beast. Cam has the hunger, the power, the mindset. Jalen’s inconsistency is maddening. We can’t keep hoping he figures it out — let Cam eat.


    And don’t get me started on Sheppard. He’s our sniper — elite shooting, quick hands on defense, smart in pick-and-rolls. If Podz can get heavy minutes, there is no excuse for Sheppard sitting. Honestly, I’d bet Sheppard would be better than Fred if given the chance. And we’ll never know if Udoka refuses to try.


    This series could’ve been ours. But we’re stuck in ****ing neutral while talent sits unused.

    Forgot to reply to this earlier. You cannot have a flagrant occur in a dead ball situation. The whistle blew after the foul on green, ending the play. You can no longer have a flagrant, that does not exist. When he kicked eason, they had 2 and only 2 options.

    1. call nothing
    2. Give green a tech and eject him

    Calling a flagrant there is not legal, and was purely cheating to keep green in the game.
