Well, in all fairness they were a combined 8 for 18 on threes...poor shooting on 2's though if that's what you meant. Kind of a mixed bag. As opposed to Ant who looked off on offense all night.
I will say this about Ant though...he was brilliant on defense. He didn't look like his ankle was bothering him at all on D.

Gobert had no offensive game tonight, but his defense was incredible. It's striking how different opponents' offenses look depending on whether he is in or not. So his block numbers are unimpressive, What do you expect when opponents are reluctant to even try anything inside? He completely intimidated the Wee Warriors (with a lot of help from SloMo).
Huge win!
Held the Warriors to 96 points without Jaden having an impact. That's big.
What a refreshing win
We loose these games 9 of of 10 times normally
This team has grit
We fit well together
For the first game with all of the gang together
Mighty impressive
No one thrived offensively outside of 4Q KAT
Team win
It's a shame we aren't assured of watching this squad for a full season
TC work your magic this off season
I'm ready to run it back

Draymond a minus seven with five turnovers. Bazinga!

Yep, I meant 2s, but I also meant to say KAT and Edwards, not KAT and Conley. It's unusual for KAT to miss as much as he did tonight inside the arc. And Edwards was obviously off. But KAT hit his threes, including the big one at the end. As as you noted, Edwards was terrific defensively.

I know you're not a JMac fan, kek, and his size can be a disadvantage on defense, but like Jim Pete says almost every game: "Good things happen every time JMac is on the court". I know +/- doesn't mean much in an individual game, but he is up among the leaders every game. Tonight he was a +12 in his 15 minutes...par for the course. And the amazing part is he isn't out there with Rudy very often. He does seem to make Naz tick though on the offensive end. I love the way those two guys play together.
