And now we get a Kristin Kenny sighting on the “baby your baby” commercial after the post game. LOL

I'm excited about Keyonte. He's going to be great for a long time.

I don't understand why Will Hardy didn't call a time out with less than 10 seconds on the clock. He had 2 of them.

He mentioned post-game having five days to think about that one.

I'd baby her baby.

Probably because Keyonte and Sexton were both completely wide open for 3 and Hardy didn't consider the possibilty of such a difficult decision causing Collins to have a stroke.

Post of the night. POT!

I haven't watched as much this year, but got tickets to this one. Keyonte is even better than the stat line.
He had a couple of heat checks that were rookie bad selections. He also had a bad rookie mistake on a travel. He will grow out of those bone-headed moments. Super excited about him. Always been a sexton fan. Hendricks looks pretty lost, but he hussles and looks like he has a chance, but plenty raw for now.

Clarkson was super quiet. Its sad to see Kessler not as confident. Still had some great contests and blocks. What happened to Clarkson. He was so quiet. Dunn plays hard and causes a lot of disruption on D. Markenen seems like he could be more involved somehow.

I was glad Draymond wasn't too engaged. I worry about him. Weird to see him afraid to shoot the 3. Unfortunately, we gave him confidence, and he turned back the clock. Klay had tons of ice on his kness at halftime, Curry didn't feel near as deadly as he once was. The Dubs honestly weren't too scary looking.

It was a fun game. Refs were garbage down the stretch. Wish they could have pulled it out.

Lauri looks a bit mentally checked out like last year post trade dead line.

Well he should check in cuz that would have been a win. Tough loss. Not sure he checked out so much as likely didn’t have the legs. 3 games in 4 nights. It happens.

I'm done on making proper analysis as I dont think there is much need for it. We will likely get better after the ASB but its still almost game over for the play-in, and definitely over for reaching the playoffs.

Happy for Keyontes career night. I was hoping he hits 1 more trey to reach 10 and the game winning attempt should have gone to him in this one. Collins getting the ORBER and coughing the pass to the 10th row possibly denied that.

Our defense is just a mountain of flaming garbage. Kessler still does Kessler things inside and Dunn is the one trying to put out the fire in the perimeter but it takes more than 2 guys peeing in the basecamp. Keyonte actually had one of his best defensive games. He ran around chasing Curry and that denied him the volume he needs to get into his deadly rhythm. His 2 pass interceptions in the 2nd half were both good reads, and with the first one he actually sort of hanged back and disguised that he was in position to jump the lane.

Just watch the replay. Was fun to wath even if no defense was played on both sides. We definitly out of play off play-in. And i'm not sure GSW will be good enough to make a run in the PO. Time for rebuild for them will come soon even. It will not be easy to part ways with Klay or Draymond as they are legend there.

Yes, seemed like he just couldn't make a shot for a loooong time (hit his first 3 though, had a few nice assists to open threes, but missing a whole bunch of pretty simple 2pt field goals he usually sinks). Kind of hated the first half (well, mostly because of the 2nd quarter) because it was pretty awful defense, the team (actually both teams) just chucking (well, at least quite open) threes (on the positive side Keyonte was making so many of them - had more Steph Curry in him than the original in this game ). Lauri's game picked up in the fourth and the whole team looked better (pretty often that seems to equal defended better) - no matter what the end result and hopefully Collins gets over the bad turnover in the end. The 4th quarter did look quite promising for the Jazz (I don't think it's often that the Warriors have been held at 20points in the 4th).

Defense is just getting worse. Before opposing guards used to torch us now it’s guys like hachimura, green?! They are not even 3rd or 4th option in their teams.

And we really need Lauri to shoot like he used to be. He mentioned Simone was his shooting buddy in practice I hope he gets over it soon.
