Steph Curry you are ridiculous! What a game! Curry single-handedly beat the Rockets.

Rockets were without Bev and DH but Warriors missing DLee.

Thompson was a no show tonight and got into foul trouble early. Some long periods of sloppy ball as well but Curry was there to bail them out everytime they needed a bucket.

Looking forward to playing Houston again with their full squad, but I'll take it. Klay struggled last night, but still glad we didn't throw him in the Kevin Love deal. He and Curry feed off each other.

It would be one hell of a playoff series. As a basketball fan it's one I'd love to see, as a Warriors fan I wouldn't be mad seeing Houston gone before we got the chance.

But yeah Klay and Steph pick each other up too. Klay picked up Steph during the second half in Portland and carried them to a win. Steph returned the favor last night. I wish Klay and Steph both wouldn't be so aggressive on D early though, both are always at risk of getting into foul trouble and we need those two in the game.

I'll never understand the Bogut extension considering what we do. His job is simply to hand the ball off to Steph and Klay as they rub off him. He's a gamble due to injury history and he really doesn't present any kind of threat down low.

For a cap tight team this was one contract we could've done without. We could've found a cheaper replacement for what we ask of Bogut. Even under Jackson Bogut didn't have much of a role.

Worst officiated game I've ever watched an that goes for both teams.

Losing Klay hurts because it makes Igoudala make plays on offense and he has no business with the ball in his hands or shooting unless he's WIDE open. Curry really hurt the teams momentum when he checked in and commuted 2 fouls.

Oh well, first loss of the year. Hopefully Klay comes back ASAP

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
