Golden State Warriors Thread


Montsta

Recommended Posts

Sorry, there is no general NBA forum so I guess this will have to work. Me and *freefua* were talking about it and we both agree that we are so glad the Dubs didn't throw in Klay Thompson to get Kevin Love. He masks so many of Curry's defensive inefficiencies and went off for 41 last night after signing a max contract extension.

I liked Mark Jackson a lot but it's looking like moving on was the right idea and going with Kerr looks brilliant so far.

Looking forward to seeing how this team (and this thread) moves along over the course of the season.

I really do see both sides of the Thompson for K-love argument. 

 

 

At the end of the day, Thompson is much better suited to play alongside Curry than he would be solo in Minnesota, whereas Wiggins fits on any team- so I think Minny actually got a better deal

 

 

Would the Warriors be better with Love? Offensively yes, defensively god no. 

 

 

They went with continuity and the chance Thompson develops into something special over score more points right now. Can't fault them for that

Considering this forum is dead I don't think it's going to kill anyone if me and Montsta have a W's thread.

@Rusty_SFChron: Steve Kerr said he will limit minutes of Ezeli, Livingston and Rush tonight. He'd like to limit more guys in the team's first back-to-back.

Yes! A possible Rush sighting tonight

Even in these couple of games so far you can see how much Klay's improved. He's taking the ball to the hoop more and he's gotten stronger.

Just need to trade for Greg Monroe and we're set!

I wonder if Detroit would go for a Lee/Monroe swap. Lee has one year remaining on his huge deal. Throw in Harrison if you have too. The Warriors have to dump either Lee or Iggy if they want to resign Draymond. Like the Panthers, we're already close to the cap for next season

41 points. Yea he sure is living up to it.

Charlotte fans are hyping their players but nitpicking others. Klay is a STUD. Worth every dime of that contract.

klay overrated. He's a shooter and a pretty good defender. He gets open from the defensive attention to curry/iggy/lee & also he flourishes due to have 4 good/great passers on the floor with him all at once in Curry Igoudala Bogut & Lee

No defense is worried about Iggy.

I'm guessing you don't watch alot of Warriors games? Klay's slowly becoming a beast in all areas of the game. I'm sure his 41 from last night is posted on youtube somewhere, go watch it.

    • I mean, you're acting like we don't see the tippy-toe bunny hops, jump throws more than normal (with both feet dangling in the air every which a way), and off-platform but off-balance throws that arrive lshort or sail high. Could that be bad mechanics due to being short? Could a seeming propensity to bail the pocket towards the sidelines early as opposed to sitting in the pocket tall and strong, surveying his reads be an attempt at trying to see an open throwing lane? I'm not saying that what you're saying isn't a contributing factor to what has been an underwhelming display of executing the QB position, but this is year three, and if the lightbulb hasn't switched on by now---if you haven't figured out that guys are faster, stronger and generally more athletic, then what's it going to take? It's hard to forget that "mental processing" was supposed to be Bryce Young's superpower. Are you telling me that he can't nail down such an easy concept as, "I can't get away with the things I did in college at the pro level," is that right? If he can't get past that, then that surely limits his ability to successfully execute all the other stuff.  Look, I'm not trying to be flippant. I acknowledge that playing pro football is more complex than a lot of fans realize, but all we can do, as fans, is observe. One of my favorite things to do is just look at the greater picture and think what part human nature is playing in the many decisions that are being made or have to be made. You're absolutely correct that fans don't know exactly what's going on, but that is by design, and in many ways it's just the nature of the beast. Some things we can't know. That being said, the professionals screw the hell up all the time. The professionals disagree all the time. These disagreements can be within the same franchise or from franchise to franchise. And sometimes these decisions are all over the place, so excuse me if I ain't exactly buying the I-know-more-than-thee sentiment and that that means that professionals always make better decisions than fans would about certain players. Some of this stuff is simply luck or a crapshoot.
    • Then please take a vacation from the team.
    • In addition to his weak arm he has to compensate in the pocket by throwing off his toes due to his height. Respectfully, its a handicap.
