If Dlo keeps this up he will net as a big haul back.. but again he keeps this up it’s going to raise some different questions. If we did some how find a way to sit Dray, how out of shape does he get? Does he even work on his game? These are questions you’d never ask about Steph or Klay.

Mr Athletic Alchemy-do you really see a future with Steph and Dlo making it work on the same team? He's played great-but they aren't winning. Can he do that in the context of winning Warriors basketball with some great defensive players and some good wing players. I'd love to see a breakdown on that later in the season.
Paul Hanson

I think that it's possible that DLo will be groomed to take over the point guard position from Curry after a few years. That I can see maybe happening. It doesn't mean Curry will leave the team-he just might become a 2 guard instead.
Paul Hanson
2019-11-13 08:15:47 +0000 UTC
Yea-I kind of feel the same way. It's almost like a completely different team now-and having Steph and Draymond play kind of takes away from what these new guys are starting to work out for themselves. I kind of see maybe a possibility of DLo coming off the bench but jeez-that's a lot to expect from a guy who is averaging 30 points a game right now. Everyone's plus/minus is really not very good and I think DLo's defense hasn't been great but I've seen him try. I guess all the millions he's making can't be a bad thing but I know that guy would like to stick somewhere and WIN. Hopefully it's here and they can figure it out.
Paul Hanson
2019-11-13 08:13:27 +0000 UTC
I actually cannot see dlo and curry work well together in any scenario, hopefully they can prove me wrong. Klay fits with anybody so I have no worry for him.
Kevin Chan
2019-11-13 08:09:56 +0000 UTC
Another great and entertaining breakdown. Fitz is really hilarious-thought he'd retire when they moved but I guess not. I suppose ownership likes him because of continuity. What I worry about on the floor is a few things. Of course they are not really about winning right now-but I sure hope they don't get too far away from the culture they created with Steph, Klay and Dray and Loon. Sometimes it seems like Draymond is a front-runner who only is the best glue guy there ever was given how he's played in the playoffs. It's hard to watch him sometimes-he seems so disappointed and "do I have to be here right now? I want a year off too". D'Angelo Russell seems like the real deal-but until there is some consistency on DEFENSE somehow some way-it's really a far off vision to see DLo with the old winning core of Klay, Steph, Dray and Loon. I have seen DLo get a bit better on defense here and there-but his style of play is SO different than the ball movement, everyone running around the floor game that the Dubs played in their glory years. I think the key is Klay Thompson. If he can come back in March just for a few meaningless games with Steph, Loon and Draymond-it would be really, really interesting to see how they play with DLo. I hope it works but I don't know if it will. Another HUGE piece they are missing is that veteran wing defender that's seen everything-it would be Andre Iguodala. He's such a huge missing piece of their pie. Last thing: I hope that somehow they don't get too down in the dumps with all the losing. They have a really hard schedule for quite awhile to open the season up.

Was at the last night game court side (so close I didn’t have to stretch to touch looney) but the squad definitely don’t fuck wit willie like that dudes gets isolated by a lot of the team ...& the refs...them niggas was trippin
2019-11-13 06:20:47 +0000 UTC
Well he just averaged 30 on 60% TS in the finals against the best defensive team in the NBA. Last season before his injury, he was on pace for the greatest offensive season 12 games in. Still finished with elite stats that is still historically good.
Paradox
2019-11-13 06:15:16 +0000 UTC
Lol Curry is not getting traded. DLo is having a great 4-5 game stretch but this was literally what Curry averaged on HIGHER TS% the last 4 seasons. There is a huge gap between them. The only concern is age but Curry's skillset will age nicely, it's injuries that's the main concern.
Paradox
2019-11-13 05:17:04 +0000 UTC
I think he's just depressed because he wanted to play with Steph and contend, this is definitely not what he signed up for.
Did you watch the first minutes against the jazz? He was playing GREAT defense, but then just slacked off the rest of the game. It'ss a mental thing, he'll recover once Steph and Klay get back
José Francisco
2019-11-13 04:02:01 +0000 UTC
I think none will be traded, it wouldn't be a smart move to pass on Dlo, just like it wouldn't be to get rid of Steph.
They'll take a shot at the Steph/Dlo/Klay line up, it will work.
José Francisco
2019-11-13 03:57:00 +0000 UTC
I agree.. I’m not seeing where he can contribute in this situation. Unless he is going to lead by example and play like a dawg.

2019-11-13 03:34:36 +0000 UTC
Ahhhh got you... mybad! Your right I should have realized It would. I can’t help myself. ... I can’t not say something that’s on my mind. I think ultimately I’m just shocked at Dlo right now.
Athletic Alchemy
2019-11-13 03:23:50 +0000 UTC
I did the same.. watched the 9er game live and this after. Honestly I was so drained from the football game, I don’t think I could have handled a competitive game.

Athletic Alchemy
2019-11-13 03:12:31 +0000 UTC
I wonder how Dray would be acting if we didn't extend his contract this past summer. He got the $$ so he knows he's secured because he believes Myers/Lacob don't got the guts to trade him!
2019-11-13 03:12:09 +0000 UTC

The injury bug has been rough this year. But I'll take it if it means we get to develop a deep bench for the 2020 season. Wouldn't hurt if we got the no. 1 pick as well.

I still don't see how dlo and curry will fit together. The warriors will end up trading one of them, and to many fans' surprise I don't think it will be dlo that gets traded

Billy Donovan looked like he was trying to get a jaw workout in, the way he was chewing gum when we played OKC on Sunday (NZ time).
2019-11-12 22:58:25 +0000 UTC
I absolutely hate how Draymond is becoming so selfish.....we aren't gonna win many games with or without Dray but at the very least hear the final whistle with the guys...Like you said he wants an easy way out and not even being a leader of the team with his attitude.
2019-11-12 22:54:05 +0000 UTC
The more I watch DLo the more I can't wait to see him, Curry and Klay together (pause). DLo improving more and more each game, please don't trade this dude!

We go Fan Tank mode and hope to land our first #1 pick since Joe Smith, and our first lottery pick since 2012. We root hard, knowing they'll probably lose, probably won't make the playoffs. We build for next year when all our newly-developed talent, our lottery draft pick, our shred of regained cap mobility, our favorite players returned back and healthy, will all combine to make this team a potential monster again.
And we relish the fact that all of this losing isn't a Finals hangover...it's a *DYNASTY* hangover where we might go back for some hair of the dog next year or in 2021.
And we hope that around that time, a certain Greek gentleman with the excellent nickname in China of Alphabet Man (excellent, but not as good as Curry's nickname there: Sky-Fucker) miiiiight possibly make a decision to come and play with his favorite PG in the league.

Alch shooting more shots at our boy Chefen Curry lol nah but fr tho willie gotta go this dude is fucking trash. Looney looking fly lately I dig it, hope he comes back with some swag. I think the Celtics are gonna whoop our asses, they're scary good right now and all their tall and athletic wings and defense is gonna fuck us right up.

This game wasnt as bad as the score would make you think if you just looked at the box score. The Jazz were just playing really well, couldnt miss any threes, and the refs came to the rescue to make sure there would be no funny business. 30 free throws to 14? Lol okay NBA. Granted there were plenty stupid fouls by the Warriors but whatever.
Anyway, I had completely forgotten about this game as I was watching the 49ers crush my hopes and dreams. But then I saw it sitting in my DVR and managed to watch the whole thing last night. Im 100% okay with this form of DLo. He can continue this all he wants. Now Im just waiting on Poole to find his groove cuz man he just looks like hes all over the place. Those back to back miss open layups were harsh. I only have 2 main thoughts on this game:
1) Im done with WCS. He looked like he came out with energy in the first 3 minutes, then realized the game was already over, and stopped trying. He picks up stupid fouls, still cant rebound, and looks nonexistent against Golbert. Damion Lee as well. Done with the dude. He had a few layups!!! Amazing! But I dont even care about that. He cant ball handle. Cant shoot when it matters, and just kind of takes up space. Message to GR3 as well, stop trying to handle the ball like a PG. Please. Just stop.
2) If Draymond is gonna come back and steal minutes from Paschall and slow his development, then he has GOT to score more than 4 points. I know he just came off injury and whatever. But my dude.....4 points? Cmon man. I know he will never be a "scorer" or even a go-to guy for offense. But at the very least, score when youre open.

I wonder what the deal is with Cauley-Stein. Defensively speaking, people were liking him to DeAndre Jordan, now it looks like he's having a year off.
GSW went from the Slim Reaper to the Slim Sleeper.

I'm really kind of fed up with Draymond, I don't want him to take time away from paschal and Dlo if he's not gonna do shit on the court, we've been hanging with other teams so far, he comes back with his bad body language and antics, just holding the ball at the top of the key and shooting terribly, just sit down until Steph and Klay come back.

or maybe keep him put klay at the 3
