Steph Curry made both Klay Thompson and Draymond lmao
The answer is they don’t the next stretch of games it’s going to be bad if Jordan Poole doesn’t pick up offense unfortunately Klay can’t anymore
Common JJ,Tommy,Jason W
Exact question posed last year and look what happened
where are links to full podcast and full videos?
Easy… they don’t. Next question 😎
i really think they messed up not getting rid of draymond and trying to land a big name to finish out the rest of steph's career. wouldn't be shocked if they lose every game steph isn't playing.
Keep up the good work JJ & Tommy. Love hearing you guys talk. Love from Korea 🇰🇷
Ok Draymond let's see why you deserve a max contract or whatever. I wanna see Draymond lead this team without Wardell.
I’m a huge warriors fan but the answer is they don’t. The thing we need to do is the bench and everybody NEEDS to be better before Steph and Wiggs come back.
Just checked. The last time draymond attempted 15 shots or more was on 28 Dec 2018 when he had 15
They don’t.
Draymond green is the most overrated player in NBA history 😭😂💯
I think this stretch will reveal if their team is good enough
when you have a player like Draymond who rage quits every time he gets a tech and is supposed to be a leader then your team might suffer a bit
I want to be optimistic and say this is a good time for the team to practice not getting carried by Steph, but being #12 in the West with almost half the season gone it's hard to have confidence in that.,
I'm a huge warrior fan and was optimistic last year even despite all the negative voice, but there were stats you can use to prove Warriors were actually better than people give them credit for like being the #1/#2 (tied with Celtics) defense in the entire league, as well as having the best record in the NBA around this time last year.
This year, I don't have nearly the same optimism as I did last year for the same reasons, as that #1 defense has dropped down to the bottom 2/3rd of the league, and it's pretty hard to stomache the thoughts of being categorized as a hater just because I don't have blind faith about the team that is backed up by stats/evidence.
The only way draymond gets a double double is if he goes to in and out. Other than that he is sponsored by Kraft, both produce singles
They’ll get better. They’ll be .500 when Steph comes back, and end up around 7 or 8. And win a chip.
I think where this injury will affect Steph most is his defense. Nail him with a pick on that shoulder and that's a wrap, and everybody they play this year will add a few extra picks down the stretch in games. Even if you don't nail him, he's still going to do a lot of brushing by, which will be painful, surely?
Yep good storyline! Look 2 major things. Poole was paid to carry the torch for Curry. They can run all the same action and barely miss a beat. I've torn my shoulder and it's not a quick easy fix. Think about why Curry shoulders are always red from screens and you'll start to worry… but luckily there's Poole and maybe even Rollins?
2nd storyline… Draymond=winning. From the beginning as Draymond goes so do the wins and loses. I've watched almost all their games since the late 80s… his impact is like no other. We saw this last year… it was Draymond team and only when he went down did things fall apart. Klay was out and they had the best record in the league. Curry went down and Poole stepped up. Draymond went down and the offense locked up and defense fell off.
IMO you trade talent for team fit.
Wiseman +pick to Toronto for Young and Koloko. Or Wiseman Kuminga to Chicago for Dalen Terry, Patrick Williams and Simonovic, Drummond or Bradley.
Klay, Dray, and Poole are gonna do fine. I’m looking for Donte and Ty to step up in place of Steph and JK and Moody to step up in place of Wiggins.
It's exactly what they need. They have needed to work out how to compete without Steph on the floor for months. Now they have to .. it could be a blessing in disguise
Zzzzzzzzz… Wake me when the playoffs start. They'll be there
We went without curry before playoff last year against Denver curry was 6th man just a couple months ago
JOKIC 40 27 10 WAS INSANE that day
Curry just went on his championship nap!
It's not a matter of talent it's been a matter of effort and execution. Knowing they don't have Curry strapping on the cape every night to save them is going to force them to learn to win without a true superstar.
Thank you for covering the champs!
better nba analytics than skip, espn n other stupid guyzz lyk small PERK…lol
Great video❤️, you've reminded me of what someone once said Making money is an Action, keeping money is behaviour, Growing money is Knowledge. I once attended a seminar conducted by Ray Dalio and ever since then I have been waxing strong financially, and I must tell you the truth😉.
