I don't understand the lack of Kuminga minutes.
Wiseman is being prioritized over him.

They see Kuminga as a wing-big hybrid, and they're not willing to continue with the experiment of having both of them out on the floor together, largely because Wiseman typically kills any lineup he's in, which is even worse if you have him out there with a bunch of young guys, especially if he and Kuminga are the frontcourt duo. It's why Wiseman's minutes have been alongside a more experienced player (Dray or JaMychal) in the more recent games.

They're basically treating the regular season as an experiment, which they did last season, until they find the right formula for the playoffs.

Klay definitely deserves smoke for that performance. When you right, you right.

When Wiggins is on, Klay and/or Poole are off

Apparently the league sent out an email to teams yesterday saying they were going to be calling those "palming" carries they got Poole 3 times for.

Half of the guards in the league carry regularly. Ja Morant immediately comes to mind.

This is a pretty big change. I'll believe it when I see it called across the board. I'ma need some consistency.

So given how the season has started so far, was figuratively bending the knee to draymond worth it?

I think kerr and the front office handling of the punch has fukked up the teams chemistry and for what, an offensive liability who's no longer in his prime

A conversation will also need to be had about Klay, who even his biggest fans can see is beyond washed at this point but still sees himself as a key player jacking up 15 plus shots a game.

What happened to Klay? It’s surprising he didn’t look washed last year, his first season coming off the injuries.

What games were you watching:gucci:

That nikka supplied enough bricks to build the chrysler building
He looks exactly how he did when he first got back and his mentality is to shoot himself out of it. I'm good with waiting a bit more to see if he gets his legs. It should take around 15 games or so.

Klay looked rusty last year, which was expected after 2 years. And if you look at his stats from last year, they weren't that bad. This year he looks washed.

If the rough season continues and Klay continues struggling, should the Warriors consider trading for Buddy Hield and Myles Turner?
