As a big Steph Curry fan, it pains me to say that he's been a fraud this season

Draymond was +8, Klay was +9. Klay/Green were the reason the Warriors came back in the 4th, don't try spinning this shyt to fit your agenda. Team was struggling offensively with Curry out there.

BASKETBALL IS A GAME OF RUNS...

THE +/- STAT IS ONE OF THE STUPIDEST STATS EVER CREATED.

lets face it, curry aint been the same since the kevin love incident from game 7:wow:
He ain't been right since that Henny Bron face after the block

But o the real I told y'all to enjoy what you were watching last year. Because we'd never see this level of shooting again

You're both part right, but I think it was more seven straight games of "Get blocked 8 times by a guy you can't stand and get shut down by a PG who never plays defense" that did him in.

Yeah, because OUTSCORING THE OTHER TEAM WHEN YOU'RE ON THE COURT isn't the fukking goal of the whole sport or anything. :dead:

"Hey Draymond, listen. What I'd like you do to right now when you go in this 4th quarter is to get a lot of points and assists and rebounds. Don't worry if the other team outscores you - that's not what we're looking for right now. The SCORE OF THE GAME is one of the stupidest stats anyway.

:mjlol:I CAN TELL YOU NERDS DONT HOOP.

KLAY COULD GET HOT AND HIT 3 STRAIGHT THREES
WHILE CURRY IS ON THE BENCH FOR 1:30
AND THE +/- IS GONNA REFLECT THAT AT THE END OF THE NIGHT.

IT DOESNT COME CLOSE TO TELLING THE WHOLE STORY IN A 48 MINUTE GAME.

TEAMS GO ON LIL RUNS BACK AND FORTH ALL GAME LONG
REGARDLESS OF WHO IS IN.

@CHICAGO is right, it leaves out all the important context of what's happening during the game when a player is on/off. It's fine using it as a foundaton for lineups as a whole, (with a minimum set of minutes), but other than that it really doesn't tell you anythng about how much impact a player has while on court. It's far too generalized to just throw around in the manner of using it for individual players like that.

Alright, then how about this:

The warriors went on a 13-0 run with Green/Klay out there to start the 4th.


You still lose. :mjlol:

WHAT PART OF
BASKETBALL IS A GAME OF RUNS
DONT YOU UNDERSTAND?

THAT ONE RUN IN A 48 MINUTE GAME MEANS WHAT?
:devil:
:evil:


Means they didn't give up a basket in about 4 and half minutes of play and cut a double digit lead down to about even with only 12 minutes to go in that 48 minute game. Wolves held the advantage all night, but that "one run" in the 4th was the reason the game was close at all.

Man you being dumb as shyt on purpose?

If it's a game of runs why did no other Warrior run sustain them or get them back into the game? Just because the game is a game of runs doesn't mean there aren't runs in particular that either get you back in the game or on the flip side can completely take you out of the game. shyt happens all the time, which is how we get blowouts.

Green played excellent defense for the whole 48 minutes too, but there ain't any stats to tell you that much, right? :mjpls:
