Warriros Scrimmage!

Not interested in Beal despite leading the lesgue this season in scoring. I predict Wiggins will have the best season of his career next season and experience the full gravity of splash bros open new things for him. He was playing with very little spacing back in Timberwolves.

Paradox

Just glad to see Chriss becoming better, in at least a few aspects, and not just content with his status on the roster. I think you said it a year ago, what if Chriss becomes Draymond's heir. I highly doubt Chriss reaches the Bball IQ that Draymond has to become an all time great defender, but he'll more than bring the fire the Warriors need when Draymond goes full Klutch mode. Either way, just glad Willie the Scammer isn't here.

William Mitchell

Love the young guys! Will Poole actually get minutes in the rotation?!

Patrick Kennedy

Not to get off-topic, but what about all this chatter about getting Bradley Bea, Alch? I like Beal's offensive game but the price would be steep and his D is kind of suspect. It looks like we'd have to give up WIgggnis and our 2020 pic and the Minessota 2021 pick to get him. Maybe better to keep Wiggins and those picks -- that Min 2021 pick could be a high one (I am not all that optimistic about the D'lo and Kat combo working out.

They should sign a vet or two that is going to bump a few of these guys off I think.

Athletic Alchemy

Ha! Haven’t seen Wario since idk playing dr. Mario Tetris

Athletic Alchemy

Good take! Yeah if Ky was Caruso’s size he’d be.. well like Caruso! I think JTA is a classic example of just not quite having the athleticism for the league. Things he can do in the G league are just no longer there for him when he is amongst nba athletes.

Athletic Alchemy

😀 if he can just be in the right spots defensively, he has good length

Athletic Alchemy

Dope! Thanks for the share.

Athletic Alchemy

👏🏽

Steph Klay and Dray are all young OGs at this point. But it would be nice to have a bench stabilizer like Ariza or somebody of that caliber.

Athletic Alchemy

Im speak on it on this weeks pod for sure

Athletic Alchemy

He might just be a mental midget out there.. I’d give him thru camp to figure it out or see if he can.

Athletic Alchemy

You said tho! 4th guard.. I agree, his intangibles and athleticism are Caruso like. Difference is he is a much smaller dude.. will see!

Athletic Alchemy

November should be spicy league wide!

Athletic Alchemy

Long as we don’t snag Cook back 😀

Athletic Alchemy

This was fun to watch, let’s get it!

Wilson Wang

This was so damn funny

Noah

no EP? I hope he didn't spend the lockdown on the couch eating his way out of the league. Nice to see Chriss, Loon and Poole looking like they can contribute next year.

Andrej Krickovic

That Taylor guy sheeessshh he came outta no were but he wet like watta. I don’t think Simmons is it unless he has good defense. I still like Allen and the more he plays the smarter he will be.I think Juan is a great do a lil everything type player that is gonna be a glue guy. Dlee idk with how Poole looking but good bench guy can help players cuz he was in same position as many of them. Poole looking better and better which is what I like to see. Chriss the same thing. Kevon nice to see him getting back into it. Moulder idk and Ky idk If they make it. I feel like we could get a vet guard for cheap. We need defense and a certified shooter on the bench. I think mínimums could fill that somewhat. Also if the warriors keep there picks who gonna end up starting cuz they have a couple 2nd rounded will those guys go to the g league? Trade or keep we r chilling and gonna be fighting next year. I think we can run with anyone next year. I think a bench wing 3/d type guy, vet guard to handle and be a leader, and a big body at center off bench in case we need it, is what we need. Two of those things i could see us getting on a minimum but that 3/D role is Gonna be tougher. Curry,klay,Wiggins,Dray, Chriss. Poole, lee, Juan, pascall, Kevon, Allen.....Mabey Taylor, Ky, moulder. Who knows I think I’m forgetting someone but that’s a rough outline. Trade or keep warriors all the way!!!!!!!

hugojimcam

Tru. Paschall?

Eric Edelmann

wasn't deemed conditioned enough to participate :(

Nikhil Buduma

Damion led in PIPM and net rating on GSW, both of which Draymond came in 2nd by a decent margin. Say what you will but that's not luck over 45 game sample size.

Paradox

Chriss doesn't have anything close to LeBron's speed but he does have the verticality and some size.

Paradox

Where was Paschall in this?

Ryan taylor.

Eric Edelmann

Title made me think of Wario: https://i.pinimg.com/736x/a8/8b/12/a88b124b3b18c21375d75355a19cde89.jpg

“and a quick word from the newest warrior’s coach, Leandro Barbosa” (as the camera scans to him) and he says “We be Championship”.

Ky is just too small. If Kemba Walker is getting his lunch eaten as an All-Star, I don't see us having room or minutes for Ky. This especially with Poole taking a backup PG slot. Simmons looks destined for China with his suspect handle and mediocre at best everything else. I think we're saddled with D Lee for at least this season due to the Curry connection and the amount of emotional capital he built up with Kerr during the 2020 gap year. First time ever seeing Taylor, but I already like him better than D Lee. I'm not sure if JTA or Mulder are good enough at the things they're supposed to be good at to earn a roster spot. JTA is supposed to be a wing defender and looks average in this glorified G-league scrimmage. Mulder's ball handling and play making aren't enough to make up for the fact that he is really only a spot up shooter right now. On the plus side, I am super optimistic for Poole and Chriss. Both look comfortable in the flow of the game and look to be much more confident after taking their lumps last season. Both are looking to prove something, and they both should benefit from playing with an actual NBA caliber lineup this season. Looney is Looney, and all I want for Christmas is for him to be healthy. Seeing Harden pass the ball rather than try and take Looney 1v1 in the playoffs was straight sex, and I think he will bring a steadiness to the other young players as they integrate into a full Warriors squad. Smiley? Meh, not going to lose sleep over him this year.

Grant Bilby

Taylor my lawd his shot is pure suga walls lmao (atleast from the scrimmage) lmao i really like him...i wonder how his defense will develop. Chris and Poole perfection!

KendrickTheCreative

Thanks Alc for the shout out to Ryan Taylor, who went from his Mom's couch to the G-League. I found this article that gave more info on him. Ryan Taylor, the beautiful story of the Warriors mini-camp https://www.archysport.com/2020/10/ryan-taylor-the-beautiful-story-of-the-warriors-mini-camp/

Sinna2

Looney looks healthy and that's the best news.

Steven Stanley

Alch, do you think our increasing number of younger players is a concern? In the Dub's championship runs we had a lot of experienced vets like Andre and Shawn. Will having 5 or 6 young players hinder us this upcoming season?

Christopher Fong

What do you think about the dubs saying they will only pull the trigger on the trade exception only for “something special”

QuickMatts

The Damion Lee nepotism getting more and more apparent 😂 dude doesn't even look like a good player in a practice scrimmage

Luke Zhang

I think we give Should keep Bowman, just because he can score and is tenacious on the other end for a point guard (assuming we don’t draft a PG at #2). I think there is a bigger reason why the Spurs gave Simmons up.

John

I truly believe in Ky, he will serve well as a third or fourth guard, I just value his defense and tenacity over everything else he does and I think it is pretty rare to find guys like him that everything starts on the defensive end. I hope he makes the squad.

Edward Zeng

Great take as always Alc. Can't wait to see what off-season moves we make, what else does Bob have under his sleeve?

Thomas Joseph

Watch the lakers snag Ky

Thomas T

gonna miss ky, loved his hustle and his full court defense.

Ezra Abbey

Poole for surely needs to be our back up pg/combo guard.. Am I trippin or does Chriss have the potential to be Lebron-esque with his size, passing ability and athleticism (needs to work on that handle and body control) but he definitely has the tools to be as great as he wants. We should definitely put Ryan Taylor on the team solely just for his shooting ability and he doesn’t look like a bad defender. I’m trying to figure out why Damion Lee should make the team, he plays too sloppy at times. Looney looking like Playoff Looney out there. I like Bowman’s defense enough to have him on the team and he looks like he’s improved his midrange game. We should definitely draft Wiseman just because of his star potential and it could possibly address the Anthony Davis problem. The front office better not overthink this one.
