I mean, it makes sense, gives CP3 a lob threat to use, let’s hope it works.
I’m assuming wiggins is ramping up right? Thats why he’s not starting tonight and has played so few minutes right?

I, for the life of me, cannot understand what benefit Podz alongside CP AND Draymond provides. A 3rd ball handler isn’t needed with CP being an on ball player, ie has no need for someone to take over ball handling so that he can run around off ball, which is the theoretical reason Podz has been in the starting lineup (even though Dray and just Dray in that role has been more than sufficient every other year…).
Here’s hoping Dray unloaded the hell out of that backpack of his and turns into Steph so that lineup has some outside shooting with CP likely sticking to playmaking and not likely to shoot much.
That frontcourt trio is what I’ve wanted for 50 games now. I’m not sure it works best with 2 just decent shooters (Cp3, Podz) in the backcourt. I wanted that trio with Steph+Klay.
4/5 of those guys need the ball in their hands to be effective, podz shoulda been benched over wiggs honestly
Maybe cp3 asked?
Lob threat with Wenby on the floor? Might be a bit hard.
Trayce, kumingod, and dray, woot.
WE WANT KLAY.but seriously .That spacing is very nasty lol
WE WANT KLAY.WE WANT KLAY
Moody would be better imo over podz but let’s see how it goes
Is Wiggins being punished
yeah, this one confuses me. Draymond is a fine enough secondary facilitator alongside CP3 and Podz is reluctant to look for his shot, plus Moody matches up better with Vassell.
EDIT: looks like Vassell is out too. please don’t let Malaki Branham drop like 35 on us.
I’m excited to see how TJD/Draymond look together. They’ve played less minutes on the court than any other rotation pairing except for TJD/Looney.
Shouldnt it be moody instead of podz
Good rebounding group we should kill em on the boards
what happened to the klay-trayce synergy
People here are so mad of Podz just because he missed the shot last night. Stop with the overreactions, we’re putting Podz over Moody because he’s a better shooter than Moody (37% vs 34% on almost similar number of attempts), and we need a shooter when we run a lineup of Kuminga, Dray, and TJD.
Capela owes cp3 so much of his money
Ladies and gentlemen, the Lob City Warriors
No klay? What’s the possession with podz really.
Why Podz?
I would’ve gone for Klay personally
I think the Warriors will start playing to go inside running actions CP3 favors and the bench unit will run.
Who would of guessed this starting line up at the start of the year.
All y’all some whiny bitches. Shut up. And let the coach, coach.
This is embarrassing 🫣
Better not see this starting group again
In hindsight, the starting lineup tonight was horrible. No scoring whatsoever, and Klay couldn’t get them back into the game with how hot they were from three. Ffs 🤦
