Because GSW is so invested in these two guys, If they don’t bring it on both sides of the ball, we are toast.

Doesn’t help that Draymond is scoring 8ppg on 43/20/68 shooting splits. Some nights he looks like he couldn’t make a basket even if he was all alone in the gym.

I would prefer getting past the lakers first, but i dont believe this team is equipped to win it all this year. Poole is simply too inconsistent. Klay is good for 25 – 30 in one game of a series. Draymond is good for an ejection. I want to believe, but we are missing the iq, willingness to defend and timely shot making of OPJ. Both he and Livingston were automatic from midrange. Just get them a smaller or equal sized defender around that FT line and bucket. It was a great run, i truly hope it doesn’t end in a gentlemen sweep, but my heart definitely can’t take another game. So see yall at G7 (fingers crossed)..
Curious-Gain-4991
Well without Klay game 2 we lost 0-4 already tho. I still believe they will give us good game 5, I just hope Steph will single carry the other 2

2.5, 15% lol that is atrocious. I knew it was bad but damn.

It would be not that bad if we did not loose G1. Let’s say series 2-2 at this moment. Those two played relatively well in those two games.
G5 will be OK.
G6 will be tough with the on-road inconsistency.
G7 – we know what will happen 🙂

All due respect. We are not going to repeat. I love the warriors. I’ve been a supporter since the Baron Davis days but we don’t have a switch this season. Only Steph can turn it up.

You are correct. But – both of these guys are streaky. Both can rattle off three games of crazy rt now. Klay had his best shooting month ever in 2023. Jordan has effectively died so could rise from the ashes. Win one game in SF and the vibes will be back. Win the next in LA and head back to SF. The series has been close (11 points total) and LeBron and AD may wear down.

Aren’t we now officially at that point in the Poole cycle where everyone says he’s washed, and then he explodes for 34 points and all sins are forgiven?
Gtoast
Yeah. A lot of Poole blame but Klay is not playing well at all right now. Draymond isn’t scoring either but he never does. So we’re left scrounging for points from moody and donte it’s rough.
menusettingsgeneral
The only reason Klay isn’t getting more heat for his terrible play is because Poole has somehow been worse.
Hereforspeakers
Problem with Klay is he lets his ego take over and chucks shitty shots when he should be deferring to Curry. He’s never been a creator, but this year he seems bent in showing he can create off the dribble.
Kedosto
Poodle’s catching a lot of heat but Klay’s not helping either. Honestly, there’s plenty of blame to go around. I mean, Steph missed more than a couple of wide open shots but nobody wants to go there either. They were a .500 team going in so it’s hard for me to get my panties in a bunch at this point.

Klay needs to dig himself out of his ego, play for the team, not your redemption to greatness, which may never happen again .

Maybe the Lakers actually play some pretty good defense…
STA_Alexfree
I remember the days where a clutch game like that, we’d have all kinds of guys scoring automatically late in the game. Last night everyone was just shooting up bricks all day

15% … whoa. Even I could do that on a lower budget for the team
Dynasty_30
These two will be the death of this team. Absolutely cannot have 2 max or near max level players be this putrid
ragged-robin
2.5 PTS on 15% and he wants to complain about his play time 🤣🤣🤣
Cali_Mark
Klay, Klay, Klay…. if you would give almost any other guy 30 plus minutes a game I bet you would see some scoring. Klay is so stuck on tossing 3 pointers when he should get it in the paint and stuff it… wtf. Come on guys…

People not realizing maybe it is just road warriors again. Now we have to win at home as we usually do and somehow steal the last road game. Sheesh

Klay is our vet and hes playing like a jackass

The Lakers are much deeper. Besides AD and Bron, they have their roles players stepping up big time in separate games whether it’s Rui, D’Lo, or Walker.
Besides Wiggs with his usual 17, we don’t have multiple guys stepping up and taking the burden off of Curry.

I also think that Klay is so frenetic because it’s Los Angeles and his father is there announcing and told him he doesn’t root for anyone but the Lakers. Maybe that is getting to him. Draymond seems too enamored of his of his best man LeBron and it’s affecting his game play too.

The reason the warriors are struggling is the officiating, plain and simple.
Klay is a rhythm shooter. The officials killed his rhythm taking away the sweet open three for an off-ball foul against the Lakers that they never call normally. Total bullshit by the officials and Kerr should have immediately called a timeout to regroup. Instead, the serious frustration caused a flurry of missed shots and turnovers which ended their separation momentum. The league knows what it’s doing.

Klay said he was excited about playing LA. That was a lie.
ughasadad
That’s crazy. Poole, at the very least, should have Klay’s numbers and Klay should have double his numbers too. Disappointing and I’m sure Steph is too.
northx57
Other than Steph, we don’t have another reliable scoring option. Its a fucking horrendous roster.
Herbetet
We have become a one person team. At least in this series you can’t say we have anyone of Playoff quality besides Steph. Especially with Kevon ill.
We rely on hero ball because we leave our PG alone.
