    After seeing Shaq’s & Dame’s reactions….I have a different perspective.

    If it was Austin Reeves instead of Dray, and ….say, Ben Wallace instead of Sabonis – Double techs, no ejection.

    Dray needs to know the league judges him different.

    I’ll remember this season, as the Anthony Lamb season.

    Bro cant do nothing about 2- 0 but i hope man they tighten up they literally started their game with a turnover the past 2 games which is not good man.I hope chase center brings all the energy and they absorb some of it and plz tie the series.Lessgo

    Morning mods lots of cleaning up to do lol

    I like to say I’m a positive person, but man. This is gonna be tough. Obviously we’re not playing good enough right now, but maybe we’re also overrating some of our players. The core has to be better as well, but I see guys like Embiid and LeBron dropping 20 points and still winning. In the playoffs everybody has to perform.

    DiVincenzo is gonna get a bag, but has been awful those two games. This is where you should be shining. Kuminga in year 2 can’t even get any minutes yet. And Poole is gonna earn more money than Jaylen Brown next year, he **has** to be better.

    I’m still wondering, how in the world is a Sabonis led defense giving the warriors this much trouble. Warriors didn’t even look this clueless against the Celtics defense last finals. Mike Brown asked the kings to play physical and block their passing vision and they’re doing an excellent job at that. Even when they getting into pnr the kings were still able to get a stop. Idk how Steve is gonna counter this, but it’s gonna be interesting.

    All other fan bases can eat a dick.

    In games 3 and 4 we need dubnation to be as loud as they can

  9. nomitycs

    Haven’t seen this degree of vitriol against the warriors on Reddit in a long long time. Here’s hoping the team shuts them up in games 3 and 4 and use that momentum to steal game 5 whilst we’re at it

    I think the Draymond/Poole punch severely altered the teams dynamic. More so, the discipline (or lack thereof) afterwards. That the vets (Steph, Klay, Iggy, and Loon) signed off on it is doubly awful. Draymond is going to be Draymond. He escaped accountability. How can you establish a team first attitude with an important young player when you don’t publicly back him?

    You can see it in the way they play. They’re not connected. They’re not disciplined. They’re not consistently focused. I know basketball is their job, but most guys play because they love to play. This team looks like they’re doing a job they can’t wait to be done with. The team would have to be Shaq and Kobe Lakers good to overcome that sort of malaise. They’re not and it’s showing in massive ways.

    Who are people usually jealous of? Successful people because they can’t have what others have.

    What are sports fans usually jealous of? Other teams that are successful that their teams don’t have.

    Common denominator of NBA fans in the past 8 years: Warriors winning 4 rings.

    Just remember, the reason why there are so many haters is because of our success. Any time we lose, it ignites them.

    Stay poised because we have been the luckiest fan in the past decade.

    Lets be honest last night was the must win game. Does anybody seriously believe this team can win 1 game on the road?

  13. TomatoBuster01

    Kinda a hot take: We should give Kuminga a chance to work in this series. A wing that is a threat at the rim against a poor blocking team. Yes, he didnt have a good game, but who would in that kind of lack of rhythm? He basically played rotation minutes to 3 mins in the playoffs. I understand the nuances and his limitations, but it’s obvious that Kings’ best asset against us is their athleticism. We can’t have Dray receiving the ball from top of the key just holding the ball and looking to pass even against mismatches. Shit’s so frustrating. Idk, we are looking like we are the one playing our first playoffs games rn

  14. EffinCroissant

    If we don’t push this to at least 6 then it may be time to embrace the rebuild and I’d like to move on from Dray. Rather not keep a man child like that around who slobs Lebron, assaults teammates, and continually finds himself in flagrant situations that cost the team. Like why not sell the foul instead of jumping off Sabonis’ chest like fucking Super Mario. And then he leans into it by egging on the crowd smh. Dray isn’t good enough anymore to offset his bullshit.

  15. biiirddman

    They show Draymond replay on slow motion and it looks terrible, but honestly in normal speed it lt didn’t even look like Dray did it on purpose. Sabonis even flopped during the reboundbut refs were just blind to Kings movement

  16. BigSportingDaddy

    We can’t overreact guys…. We knew it was gonna be difficult to win on the road, but we made it close in both games, we just gotta execute down the stretch. We have one of the best home records in the league this year, we just need to lock in the next 2 games and the pressure will be on them.

    ​

    We made both games close with Poole playing like garbage, curry rushing threes when we finally cut the lead (especially last night), and the refs being clueless. Let’s not forget klay got called for two fouls last night that were all ball. Especially the one on Fox in the first half, when the warriors were making a run.

    ​

    Let’s believe we can win. WE ARE GOLD BLOODED!!!!

  17. this is just a reminder of how great we’ve had it these past few years that the league is going crazy over us being down 2-0

  18. fbgTheWizrd

    It’s not Curry’s fault we’re losing but he is gonna have to turn up for us to have a serious chance of winning any series. The lazy turnovers set the tone for the rest of the team

  19. ZaySaysHi

    Woke up to find we lost again (sighs). Disappointed (ugh) but on to the next one!

  20. Wassup_-_

    You can see how pissed of Kumimga was on a bench when moody was playing instead of him,hoping he can start in place of Draymond in game 3

  21. Daconvix

    Honestly if the team does get blown up this offseason I hope there’s somehow a way we can get Pascal Siakam. He’s probably the only available star that could extend our championship window. Probably very unlikely though cause the Raptors will make his price insanely high

  22. c0gvortex

    Are the mods all asleep or something? This sub is a shitshow right now, it’s really not fun. I got myself banned from r/nba so I wouldn’t have to read comments from the dumbfucks over there

  23. Wassup_-_

    If you want the players to turn up we need to turn up at chase to and not act like the series is lost .Its first to 4 not 2 so keep your head up yall
