Honestly I'm good with Evans being a backup to Steph right now. He has learned the most from Iggy with pacing and playing within himself. He can defend and can get buckets too. I can't wait for them to make a move for DLo before December ends. Minnesota and Orlando are waiting.

Steph's fine. He has always been a leader. They'll figure things out before the playoffs.

The other guys' aren't matching Curry's pace*

Glad that Evans was playing well and helped make a comeback in the 2nd half. I'm glad I wasn't tripping about this game bc we was shooting like a bunch of Westbrooks out there.

Like Zambyzy said, Curry's pace isn't matching the other guys. Those guys just aren't prepped for NBA level stamina yet. Felt like we didn't get a lot of easy transition buckets, many half court possessions where Steph is running like a chicken off the ball. They're going to need to use more PnR in this regular season and not just save them for the post season. P.s. I'm loving the LeBron drama right now. I always said he was a narcissistic phony but people just called me a hater... until now.

It was a tough watch. It’s clear Steph is more than thirsty to play without KD. The Pippen kid is too slow for today’s game. Speaking of slow, Pachell looks like he could lose 10 or 15. I get he is a power player but there is a balance to be struck.

I understand Curry had an amazing game against the Wolves, but he needs to chill. The amount of load and pressure they’re gonna out on him this season is the most he’s ever had. Why was he even playing this game! Let alone the third quarter! If you played the first quarter that’s fine....but that should’ve been it. Last thing we need is for him to tweak something or have some try-hard rookie undercut him on his way down. Scared me seeing him in this game with all the bench players from the Lakers. Anyway on to the game........I’m just so done with McKinnie. Are we all the stupid ones and the front office and coaching know something we don’t? McKinnie is downright awful. He made that first three pointer sure. But he blows every defensive assignment and missed how many open layups?? He needs to be out of this league. I really like what I’m seeing from Pascal and Chriss. They were inconsistent and had a rough game overall. But they still are showing a ton of positive potential and promise. Poole is chill a single always. I think him getting crossed will spark his defensive effort even more. That pippen guy....small sample size of minutes but yikes. He didn’t look good. But what I liked was that he didn’t look afraid. He was bad. But he had some great effort and confidence. With some coaching, he could be useful! And lastly......was there a SINGLE possession the Lakers had that didn’t end in free throws? Like I get the warriors young guys we’re making a bunch of boneheaded mistakes and fouls. But I don’t think I’ve ever in my life seen so many goddamn free throws and petty fouls given to a team. Is this the real “Lebron in LA” effect? It’s almost as if the refs were puttin on a show for him saying “see buddy we still gotchu even when you don’t play!”. Good grief. Fuck LeChina. I used to have respect for him even if I enjoyed him losing. But not after those bogus comments.

I'm sorry about your friend Alch. You have my full condolences, I appreciate your effort on everything, and your friend would be proud to see where your determination has brought you.

Pirate Ramsay

Unfortunately been dealing with a lot of family stuff the last two weeks. I lost a close friend, I have to fly up to the Bay Friday for his service. I will see what I can do, probably won’t be a cinematic video but I can give my picks.

Athletic Alchemy

Agreed..I think Poole will be able to defend. But he will have to take his lumps and be held accountable.

Athletic Alchemy

Alch, are you going to drop your annual regular season award predictions soon? I can't live without them.

Pirate Ramsay

Truth is he is going to have to play with more pace here soon, regardless who is around. He is a hooper, he will continue to evolve.

Athletic Alchemy

Not asking him to change his style, never would. I'm simply saying to lead this team he may need to adjust.

John Z

To ask Curry change his style is too late now in his career, the young guys have to get used to his creativity.

Kevin Chan

Evan's growth is real, he's making some plays on both ends, and playing within himself and at his own controlled pace. Until Cauley-Stein, Looney, and Draymond are all back and taking a significant number of the 4 and 5 minutes, the Dubs have no chance to defend decently and that's hard to watch.

Steven Stanley

Thats great take..I wonder if his thinking is, this is all centered back around me now. They need to adjust.

Athletic Alchemy

I feel like Curry needs to slow down, control the pace a bit. Feels like the team is trying to match his pace but he's all over the place some times, just something I thing the younger guys are not able to read as well as our previous rosters.

John Z

😀💯

Athletic Alchemy

Never thought I'd feel so happy to see Lee and a Evans on the floor

Daniel Fries

It did! That and Lee being decisive. He is still raw, but you can see what he is trying to do even in his mistakes. He can think the game just needs experience.

Athletic Alchemy

Great vid alc! Btw did you realise that the offence started to open up when Chriss was in the mix? He can pass and get some buckets. Sort of reminds me of Bogut.
