We are 3rd in the NBA and that is for a team that is near the bottom of the NBA in 3pt shooting. We are fine on that end

However I hate the way they bicker at every call that goes against them and hate the unfair advantage the officials give them.

Agreed. They used to be a team i respected. Now they're prima donnas that think the refs should give them every advantage because of who they are. Steve Kerr used to be classy. Now he's a POS.

I agree!

I think some of it is we get the Warriors shoved down our throats by the media. But when almost all of basketball talk is about the Warriors it gets old (not saying they don't deserve it)

Also in the long run I think curry is slowly ruining the game. He is super special but now I go to my local high school games and the kids are shooting logo shots consistently

That's true geek. Curry is incredible, but it's unfortunate that so many kids are emulating the shooting part of his game. They're leaving out the rest of his game. Curry is a tremendous passer and very effective going to the hole. He's also a good defender with very active hands. He's the key to the great ball movement you see in the Warriors' offense. I'm still pissed that Durant went to GS. Too much talent on one team. It's simply not good for the game in my view.

Do we really want to get in a track meet with the Warriors? And it is not like we are just waking it up we are pushing the pace.

We SHOULD want to get in a track meet with EVERY team. Did you hear what Chuck just said? NOBODY can run with us if we play it right.

I think we would get our ass kicked if we ran with them. Just my opinion though. I mean chuck also said the Warriors couldn't win it all because they shoot 3s.

Yeah we would get our ass kicked because we don't know how to run. But it's not because we're not suited to it.

GOD the Warriors are so fucking good

I just got back from the Minneapolis North v Minehaha academy game, didn't see one half court shot.

Yes, the Warriors are unbelievably good. They're like the Harlem Globetrotters. And tonight we look like the Washington Generals.

So all these ex players and NBA analysts are wrong? Guys that get paid a lot of money to do this for a living.

With a healthy Butler I think we actually match up well against the Warriors. We just need better low post defense. It's been woeful lately.

We are 3rd in the NBA in offense. We are on pace to score close to 130 tonight without our best player against a very good defensive team and we are taking the ball out of the net a lot. Yes I think we are fine on that end.

How did Jalen Suggs look?

Also I'm not saying every time up they are hoisting. But there is a big increase. I mean look at Lamelo ball. Hate him or love him he is a really highly rated recruit and he shoots terrible shots everywhere
