    Did you watch Eurobasket? It was intense, highly competitive and excellent basketball. Up there with the Olympics for high quality hoops.

    Ime is an idiot that would select Patrick Beverly over Stephen Curry because of defense.

    He cares nothing but defense and boss wife.

    This team is way to inconsistent to be a contender.

    100%. All the warriors fans that I know were surprised saying things like “Man, I thought Sengun would murder is since we’re so small but Draymond punked him” lol

    I think it's the opposite - they consistently do a few things well but otherwise succumb to the same problems because the roster construction was unbalanced can't survive the loss of FVV, Dillon and Jalen.

    So, they play slow, overrely on KD, bad spacing, rely on Anen to guard everything, turnover a lot/don't create TOs

    All predictable at this point

    Yeah you’re right they are consistent with that. I guess I just mean they go from beating a top tier West team to losing to likes of Utah, Dallas etc.

    Reed basically brought us back into this game and then Udoka benches him the ENTIRE overtime?

    What the hell is Udoka’s problem?

    We played well in the 4th quarter, until we didn't right at the end and in overtime, after playing well in the 4th quarter against ""contender"" San Antonio

    We're 1-5 in overtime

    I don't know man this team confuses me

    But I do know we look a lot better when Reed Sheppard is hitting three pointers and putting the fear of [the] god [of good spacing] into opposing teams, so maybe we should try letting him play a little bit more in crunch time

    Most of the losses have reoccurring themes:

    1). Turnovers
    2). Inconsistent defensive effort
    3). Bari’s poor shooting

    tonight our team was actually getting good looks and shooting well. Head-scratching loss.

    That’s cool. But next time when you’re not feeling it can you please stop giving the ball to the other team.

    Props to Alpi for being honest. The team was doing better when he was sitting on the bench in the 4th quarter. Some days a player just doesn't have it. What's not OK is missing most of the FT's.

    Capela was playing great and then gets 15 mins
    Reed got benched for all of OT. Jabricki on full display but plays 38 mins


    Our coach is the worst when it comes to rotations and Xs and Os. Thats why we are 1-6 in OT we lack any execution or direction when it matters most.

    I’m an Amen fan, but when he tries to go one-on-one - especially late in games - it’s a scary sight.

    i agree with this. That lineup was rolling. The lanes were open with no sengun clogging it.

    Ime didn't blame anything on Sengun.
