Kerr will figure out who he can play and who he can't. Its not like the Clippers will be the opponent every night. I liked some of what i saw from D Lo, and Paschal looked comfortable. I like that pick. Poole was getting good looks, so i think there will be games where he lights it up. They just left too many easy baskets to the Clippers.

And they fouled entirely too much. Can't put guys on the line and give up free looks in the paint.

Our championship level team had trouble defending the Clippers pick and roll with Harrell and Williams, so it wasn't a surprise. We'll see how they do against the rest of the league.

awful game but the clippers are dogs. i don't see anyone beating them in a 7 game series when PG13 is back. that 5 to finish games will be absolute monsters on D: bev, kawhi, pg13, harrell:picard:

i don't think steph will struggle the way he did getting his shots. he had to work really hard for just decent looks. my biggest concern is defense. they gave up some easy points in the paint. warriors rarely switched and the clippers had an open lane damn near whenever they wanted.

And they fouled entirely too much. Can't put guys on the line and give up free looks in the paint.

this absolutely killed them!

You know SF is expensive af if the players are complaining about the cost of living there



They found that avoiding traffic on the Bay Bridge requires certain concessions. As forward Glenn Robinson III put it, “You’re paying more for less.” And he would know. While with the Pistons last season, Robinson said he rented a three-bedroom “mansion” outside Detroit for $3,500 a month. Now, fresh off signing a two-year, $3.9 million deal with the Warriors, he pays well more than twice that for a fraction of the space.




"Got to let those paychecks pile up a little more,” said Looney, who is renting a three-bedroom row house near Fisherman’s Wharf. I told my dad, who’s from Tennessee, about the housing prices out here and he was just like, ‘You can’t pay that. You’d be nuts.’'

We will be fine
:francis: No we won't. We are gonna be at the bottom of the league defensively this year. The thing that stood out about last night is that we wasn't getting killed by real scoring threats. Kawhi only scored 21 but had a career high in assists (while not known to be a facilitator) passing to Zubac, Patterson, and Green. They were doing whatever they wanted in the PNR. KD and Iggy presence was blatantly missing last game.

If the team was smart, they would tank for a athletic two-way SF.

The team has no strategy or idea of how to defend a pick and roll. Zubac was wide open under the rim for like 3 straight possessions.

i hope this doesn't become a concern for FAs. their money goes way less out here than a lot of other states. the max contract type players won't have a problem but teams also need those quality mid tier FAs for depth and those are the ones who take into account the money they're pocketing.
