Early morning for you pros!
So happy for Loon. He deserves all the glory he gets. We aren't a championship team without him.
Let’s not forget about Donte with the clutch 3. He has been balling!
Love Monte and KB as well they work really well together. I watch them anytime they show up!!!
I think that Poole will over correct on facilitating his teammates in the Detroit game then in the games following that find the sweet spot…if he is as smart as I think he is.
Just woke up and thought about something if they wasted money on Andre iguodala for playing half of a season for multiple years then they'll pay with klay whatever they can't just to stay imjs
A lot of dub fans don’t appreciate what Klay has done & doing for this franchise!!!! Killa Klay 😤
It was tough but the Warriors finally beat the Hawks and Poole in Double Overtime.
Loon has been killing it. But We need another big . Wiseman isn’t going to be reliable enough to just have Loon as our only big. Loon stands at 6’9 and he’s doing fantastic on the boards. We need insurance on that. Loon deserves rest just like the vets.
There are 3 players on this roster that are disposable
Moses moody
Jamychal Green
James Wiseman.
One of these players has to go. They’ve had the chances and the time to prove that they can help and they are the least productive. Idc who leaves i just know one has to go
Klay’s Warriors 4 Life
Loon deserves every praise and more! He’s integral to the Warriors!
Kerith Burke is so naturally beautiful.
Move Poole off the ball. Simplify the game for him. Catch and shoot or straight to the paint. No extra dribbling. Hit the open man when you draw a double or defense collapses. Get him to focus his extra energy on defense.
Definitely agree Poole has to have the mindset to feed the hot hand. Klay could’ve easily had 60+ last night.
We will see how grateful KT is for what the FO did when he was injured when it comes to reupping for 2024-5. If he accepts a lower salary, it allows the Dubs to sign an experienced 4-5 who can spell Looney and D. Green (or even replace Green if he can't be resigned) and perhaps even deal Wiseman.
⏺Remember those 10 Pts, 10 Reb, defensive players [ex. Maurice Lucas [Blazers], Horace Grant [Bulls], Clifford Ray [Warriors], Kurt Rambis [Lakers], Dennis Rodman [Bulls], Rick Mahorn [Pistons], Tyson Chandler [Mavericks], et. al.], that were defensive cogs on championship teams when the game was played inside-out?
⏺LOONEY is the modern day ‘outside-in’ defensive cog on the Warriors; per 36 mins stats: 10.3 points, 10.6 rebounds, 3.1 assists, 1.0 steals, 1.2 blocks;
⏺OG’s {Kerr} understand!
Yes, maybe some of the Poole holding the ball critique applies BUT unless you have the ball in your hands, you cannot tell what it looks like when it appears someone else is open. Walk a mile in the man's shoes. Klay got the ball plenty and sometimes he didn't but you don't know for sure why.
People gave him so much crap his first few years. But you could clearly see how advanced his defensive footwork and feel for the game was. He was misdirecting drives on the perimeter from the start. He’s so much better even now than people realize.
Jordan pool is a great talent and a wonderful shooter but he has low basketball IQ
