Warriors beat Blazers 126-106 | Dubs Talk Live | NBC Sports Bay Area
This turning of a corner and that is Brandon pmy our BMW ultimate performer of the night now you might be looking at the box score and saying hey Kay had 28 you know Steph had 27 but hey none of them had a double double the only one on
The Warriors to do that was Brandon pmy he had 15 points 10 rebounds seven assists so when you think about what he also contributed to from an assist perspective he might have been right there with his Splash Bros oh man yeah BP does just does so many things little
Things big things it’s like you’re surprised at some of stuff he does because it’s like how did he do that right you know he goes in the paint sometimes and he gets rebounds among guys that are four and five inches taller than he is and he comes away with
The ball it’s like dude how’d you do that so but but he’s fun to watch um I think the NBA is just starting to figure out that this guy can play because you know when they when the we drafted him people like who yeah I mean Brandon paj
Jimsky was not on anybody’s draft board before last season at Santa Clara yeah and and the year before at Illinois he didn’t play he was on the bench right so he transferred out so watching him go from not playing two years ago to being nobody on nobody’s draft board a year
Ago to being a first round draft pick to being in the rotation with as he says with four on team with four hall of famers that’s a rise for your T that’s a big time rise the rise it’s not the same as you know his mentor Stephen Curry but
Same you know kind of similar Underdog Story and I think that when you think about Stephen Curry and you think about what you just said about Brandon psky if how the heck did he do that that definitely applies to this man right here look at the three games last three
Games before the holidays 30 points per game 54 from the field 51 from three I mean he is doing astronomical numbers here for his team and really just stepping it up and I feel like he’s in a groove right now yeah I mean Steph is
One of those guys he can have a bad quarter and it’ll go away because he’ll have like two tremendous quarters right and it’s like he might go like one for five and a quarter next two quarters he might go you know 9 for N 9 for 11 or
Something so at the end his numbers are going to be there for you and tonight uh he was huge in that fourth quarter in that third quarter at least when the Warriors kind of got some separation from the Blazers in this game so he’s just a tough guy to cover guys don’t
Want to run around like he does you know he exhausts people and uh but he scores from every level and from so many different ways so tonight was one of those games where look at that I mean come on how many reverses did he have tonight I mean it was it was really
Impressive to see when he was two of seven from three not being able to score as well from Beyond The Arc still being able to find ways to get inside of the paint he’s actually at the podium right now let’s see what he had to say about the
Game competitive spirit and a healthy ego of understanding who you are as a player and responding when things don’t go your way that’s what he’s been what we’ve done for our entire careers what he’s you know shown time after time um you gotta make certain adjustments and he’s done
That saying let the game come to him make the easy play um we know he can shoot that’ll never um they’ll never leave him so just the the shots he’s taking I mean tonight he has some some heat checks in third but you know consistently our ball the
Ball’s moving uh he’s he’s finding good looks and that’s the the Klay Thompson we know uh hi Steph um another good one for you guys how big will the test be on Monday when you take on Denver in Denver uh I don’t remember last time we won
There probably a couple years went last year so we mean obviously defending champs and know they’ve um you know been playing well I’m probably back to full strength so Marquee games on Christmas going to be a great atmosphere you know we we’ve we’ve been in in that you environment before so
Understand what it’s going to be like on the road it’s going to be fun to you know just compete to test that’s the next one on the schedule though too so you kind of uh understand how they play lock in on what we need to do try to go get a win step
Loose speaking of locking in I talked to Jonathan kaminga before the game he talked about some of the defensive assignments that he’s had to take on playing in these Big Time games we’ll see what he can do for the Warriors coming up on the other side of this

Down the Warriors win against the Portland Trailblazers 126 106 another win again for the Warriors not in clutch minutes being able to put on a formidable formidable flurry I think I would say with the language there oh trying to you know like that aeration a little bit a little bit uh but just
Really putting on a strong showing in the beginning of the game and being able to sustain it and when you think about how long and how hard it’s been for the wor to be able to do that you think about what’s been the change yeah and one of those bucket Getters that gets
Going in the earlies is kaminga yeah Jonathan kaminga being able to be a bucket getter for the Warriors I’ve been really impressed with the way that he’s adapted to this game we talk about him slowing down in general for you Monty what have you been able to see from him
Just that he’s his ratio of good plays versus bad plays is so much better than it was even two a month ago right you know I mean JK was an adventure for much of the first part of the Season where he would do some spectacular stuff one
Night and then the next night he’d be like oh what’s wrong with JK yeah and then or he even in the first quarter he’ do something like oh JK’s not having a good night then in third quarter he’d be like whoa JK is back you know so but
What you’re seeing is now is more consistency and what he does his decision- making is better he’s not trying to do too much at one time right you know and he’s he’s seeing his teammates better than he ever has before that was one of the big issues is like
He’d go out there and there would be JK with the ball and the other four guys would be watching you know and now he’s starting to see those guys understand that if you don’t have something move it to somebody else correct you know so his evolution is on display right now and
It’s a beautiful thing to watch if you’re a Warriors fan for sure and you think about what kaminga when you talk about those plays that he’s making and that that adjustment to making the right decision m some of those plays were helping out you know Klay Thompson get
Six of those 10 the threes that he put up but also there’s another person that was contributing and that’s cavon Looney cavon Looney 11 rebounds seven right Kavon Looney exactly he deserved all of that tonight he was phenomenal I mean of course this is only one of two buckets
For the night but his thing tonight Elite passing you want to talk about threading the ball that right there was beautiful and he had 11 re bounds seven assists I mean it was seven assists yeah almost a double double for him in that category yeah Luna is one of those guys
Who’s easy to overlook among all these stars because he’s not spectacular he’s a lunch pil guy you know puts on his hard hat and goes to work and that’s that’s his game you saw it on display you know in the postseason last year and even year before you seeing now you know these
Last few games you know he hadn’t done a whole lot because Trace has come out kind of emerged and taken some of his minutes but you know what this team is going to need all three of their big men they’re going to need Lon because he does something that Dario doesn’t do
They’re going to need Dario because he does stuff that Trace doesn’t do right they’re GNA need Trace because he does stuff that nobody else can do so watching Lon have a game like this tonight is like very encouraging yes you know um we know he can pass seven
Assists is huge uh 11 rebounds that’s just Lon you know he did it all and he didn’t need 30 minutes to do it you know so um he’s a guy who play G to play 20 to 25 minutes that’s the most you know if he goes longer than that it’s because
Something else is going on right but um when he’s able to to do his thing like he did today the Warriors are better for it because he’s a sort of a connector on the court for sure and he’s doing a lot of things that Draymond would be doing
And so without Draymond Luna’s kind of saying okay I got to do a little bit more of this and this and this and assisting is a big part of draymond’s game and this now Luna is doing it there you go and he’s filling in that Gap and
Then also helping on the big aspect of the rebounding again 49- 30 on uh excuse me that was yeah 49 to 30 on the boards that’s insane uh in terms of what they’re being able to do when you think about the game coming up Christmas Day
Against Denver we got a little bit of time I just want to get your quick opinion on that before we go well Denver first of all they are defending champs it’s real yeah and and they’re a tough matchup and they’ll be tough match up a tougher match up than even normal
Because normally Steve Kirk can switch Draymond and Lon on joic right Draymond you know again he’s undersized but he has a way of bothering yic he’s smart yeah he has a way of bothering yic and yic can have some less last year on Christmas yic had like 45 points and 15
Rebounds and 15 assists something crazy like that the Warriors can’t have that so as long as you got somebody defending him uh at a decent level you have a chance to win that game it’s going to be tough well I hope that the game is not reflective of everyone’s holiday we wish
You all a happy holiday Merry Christmas if you celebrate great thank you all so much for joining us on dub talk live Zena k at Monty pool have a wonderful evening
On Dubs Talk Live, Zena Keita and Monte Poole break down the Warriors’ 126–106 win over the Blazers at Chase Center.

Only 12mins today? What did we miss?
Congrats team gsw God bless the rookie tjd and podzimskie big night
Warriors need to get rid of Draymond. He will just be a distraction to the team. Chemistry 🧪 is clicking now, dont ruin it‼️
Ban draymond, he is totally a distraction to excellent play now of dubs. Gsw is on 5wins streak since clown draymond out.
How will Draymond impact the warriors when he’s back? The team plays so well now ….
Great win, great lineup. Keep it up. 💛💙
keep draymond coming off the bench when he returns
Rocco's Dad Is Playing Well! , Curry And The Rooks Are 🔥 , Get The W Against Denver On Xmas 😁 💛💙💛💙
When Draymond comes back, Kerr will put Kuminga back on the bench until Kuminga loses his confidence.
