Will the Warriors ever get back on track?
This team right now is a half game up on the Utah Jazz yeah for 11th in the Western Conference it has been a very bad month for the Warriors it was a bad weekend and Steph Curry again had a no three-point game 0 for nine yeah didn’t
Seem like Steph was into this game uh he just wasn’t feeling it and partly was because the defense rotations they went with this new starting lineup starting Andrew Wiggins for the first time in weeks alongside Jonathan kuminga who everyone has been talking about is that’s the guy we can do this together
But when they put them on the floor the numbers are just bad so they started those two guys with Trace Jackson Davis it was hilarious literally watching their defensive effort in that first half they literally just didn’t know where to be and didn’t know where to
Defend as soon as those guys went to the bench it was sarch Poky Kavon Looney the numbers went back the other way they looked good so those three started over kaminga Wiggins and Trace Jackson Davis in the second half they said Wiggins all right you haven’t started for a few
Weeks but it’s not working you’re off uh even kaminga went back to the bench they looked better um in times with those the the the Aged guys the old guys that’s what they’re going to do with Draymond Green they’re going to put him out there and they’re probably going to look better I
Don’t know why he hasn’t been working out I know he’s what he’s been doing you’re going through the counseling um as uh Joe Dumar said this weekend I I like this quote about uh Draymond Green from Joe Dumar During the period of his suspension green completed steps that demonstrated his commitment to
Conforming his conduct to standards expected of any NBA players said the former star of the Detroit Bad Boys he knows he knows what’s up you know being in being in Michigan he wanted to play rough he’s got to stop playing rough but this this team I I wonder how it comes
Together I it’s just interesting like if he gets back on the floor they know where to be they’re going to be better defensively I don’t think there’s any doubt about that um but yeah this up and down it’s it’s sh such a wild weekend because we we got the story on the
Athletic kuminga has lost his faith in Steve Kerr then he meets with Warriors head coach Steve Kerr I love it here that’s the yeah then Chris Paul breaks his hand well Draymond Green’s coming back he was only the Warriors wor seven and five in those 12 games he missed so maybe things
He’ll be back then they start Wiggins again I think Andrew Wiggins has the worst contract in the NBA I love the dude he’s got to come back but he just signed for four years 120 looked like a deal but he literally can’t be on the floor um there’s something going on
There with Andrew Wiggins that’s that’s thinks for sure father yeah so the the crazy that will he come back they’re waiting for that Moses Moody went back in the rotation which looked good um you just I think they have to get the old guys and you got to get Draymond Green
Telling Jonathan kuminga where to go and then I think they will be fine another way to look at this game in watching the Raptors sort of handle them there for a majority of the game is uh the Warriors reading their body language I was taking
Away a team that uh is being affected by trade rumors or maybe know something that we don’t know in terms of uh who’s potentially on the outs and what things they’re doing cuz that starts to happen around this time right as we get closer and closer to trade deadlines it affects
Some teams you can see it in terms of their effort especially guys are mentally checked out either because so and so is getting moved or they might be getting moved and uh again I got look I got no Intel what AM my Shams I don’t know but um that’s what I was taking
Away from this I was like o oh this is bad this is this they’re they’re carrying themselves like they know something about to happen so we we’ll see maybe they saw that picture of Messiah and Mike dun leevy Jr talking pregame it’s possible it’s possible oh man yeah maybe Steph doesn’t doesn’t
Want this team going forward maybe he wants some sort of change like Steph’s body language was bad and maybe because he wanted the Vets out there because as I said when SAR and Looney were out there Looney was offensive boarding all over the place they they looked like they knew where they were
Going uh but it was just an odd to see a curry doesn’t make a three night Curry single digits scoring night that’s just weird that that that was strange to not pass him the ball where he should be pass the ball and Trey said it like when
They started to make a comeback a lot of it was oh Klay Thompson’s back he’s on he’s hot y wouldn’t you ride that hot hand I mean this is like K’s like sort of downfall he’s like so rigid and like well got to take him off now it’s like
Uh do you do you really have to like he’s got it going you were down huge the guys you started most of them were not giving you great effort and like That’s a classic thing I know it sometimes works out sometimes doesn’t but he’s usually playing the long game when they
Had Elite Talent but now they’re like you know they’re sub 500 they’re not even close to like one of the best teams right now in the Western Conference so
The Golden State Warriors’ reeling defense is in desperate need of a Draymond Green boost.

Wiggins has been the worst player in the NBA this year. If they didn't play him all year then the warriors might have a decent record.
I hope not
Siakam looking real good as of late, especially defensively and as a secondary scorer.
Warriors need that type of guy (him or Markkanen) IF (and that's a big if) Warriors wanna go ANYWHERE this season.
I, and I think I'm not the only one, would actually respect Steph EVEN MORE if he decided to go all-in for the next years of his prime, and told Warriors' organisation to put him in the best position to get more rings in the next few years, no matter what the collateral damage would be (be it coaches or players considering the current circumstances).
Do you think that's at all in the cards, or will Steph ride or (more likely) die with the guys he shared all those successes with along the last decade? š¢
I have the feeling that we still think and more importantly hope that the Warriors are a top contender but just aren't anymore. Even tho they won one not long ago. Feels bad man.. Im watching from Europe and every Morning when i watch the full game highlights i just feel it in my bones that they gonna botch that 15 Point lead in the 4th quarter and play like children all of a sudden
Now that Dray isnāt sucker punching and choking Warriors opponents, who will protect all the millionaire businessmen on his team from all the millionaire businessmen on the other team? We all know that the āenforcerā is the most important position in basketball. ššš
I miss the days where, when the warriors were up 20, you'd be sure it would be a win. Now if i see them up like that… I'd doubt theyd hold that lead. And yeah lose.
We were debating yesterday which home loss was worse, the GS 30pts blowout or Sac being down 50 at one point.
No cause Draymond too worried about being a tough guy, Klay not a all star caliber player anymore and Wiggins underperforming as well… The only consistency comes from Steph
Don't worry about the warriors just because they a bad night they are not out Draymond they will be winning again trust me
No and for the second season in a row the number 1 issue is Draymond and his knucklehead behavior tanking the team. Sure they have many other problems, but Draymond is THE problem for me.
i think this deadline is getting in the warriors head a little so i think there will be some movement, but maybe after deadline they can go on some good winning streaks since they wont have the deadline on their minds
Steph is tired of playing with bums . Heās just too cool to pull a lebron james and trade everyone .
I do think so. Once dray is back. They can get a set line up. I think its going to be dray, tjd, jk klay and curry. It makes sense and you will see a boost with curry and klay. I cant wait.
warriors are cooked, happens eventually to everyone š
The Starters?! I didn't know you guys had a channel! I used to love watching your show on the NBA channel. Go Raptors!
RIP the Warriors we used to know ššš
no, they are washed
The Warriors starting 5 should be Curry, Klay, JK, Green, and TJD, with Moody the first SG or SF off the bench.
Biased way to look at it, Raps got A LOT better since the trade…
geez. can u at least talk about the possibility of good defense from the raptors, as well as the raptors rejuvenated offense that caused the poor warrior performance. even for like 2 mins. i get it, no one in america wants to hear about us, but give credit where its due
Steph bummed out because of trade rumors? Crazy if any of the big 3 (Steph, Klay or Dray) get traded.
The warriors should acknowledge that small ball is over
I remember the warriors being tougher the raptors man handled themš
been looking for starters for years now. finally found you guys.
we all know green is a liar, he parties with his boss lebron
Kerr is being exposed as a coach. Benefited from Mark Jacksonās team and now he has to actually coach people up and he canāt
