Draymond is the best. Clearly biased as Ive been following him since college, but as Peay said he's so damn smart.

Ry just salty about an MSU alum ;)

for the casual fan, draymond is nothing special. for a basketball junkie who knows basketball in the game within the game mode, he is an unreal player. from running the offense on breaks to moving guys to where they need to be, to seeing mismatches and the most enjoyable part i like of his game is the angles of his screens when guys are running off him. unreal. Looney is right up there with Dray on the screening part.

he is going to be a hell of a coach if he goes that route, but he is great on tv and his podcast is good, watch the one with curry on youtube.

i am a warriors fan and i have yelled at the tv for him to stfu many times.

Just because he's good doesn't mean I have to like him.

Part of me thinks there's a pretty good chance CP3 pulls the okie doke and moves his hand away if Herb reached out :lol:

Probably not but I want to believe!

Can we put an APB out for Ja Morant and also get a wellness check for George. I'm worried about them.

Haha

I'm good. Ja had a bad game in game 4. He's getting boards and assists right now. I'm confused as to why he isn't driving in the lane like normal though. Doesn't help when JJJ is always in foul trouble though.

Anthony Edwards is impressive though! Not a fan of KAT and his constant whining though

You guys watch the post game last night with Chuck making a drink as Kenny was talking, still on camera. Pretty damn funny.

JJJ and fouls... Name a more iconic duo

He's probably DPOY if he could stay on the court.

Agree. Him and KAT led the league in most 5+ fouls in a game I believe. If not top 2 definitely top 4

KAT cries more than Lebron. Didn't think that was possible

Next man up type shit.

This team may not go all the way but man, their philosophy, effort and how they play is fantastic basketball.

Totally missed the “he’s on the court in the playoffs though unlike Zion, right? opportunity but I guess you play that tune too much and pivoted.

Not a bad call, let see if it works out.

Do we really need to say the obvious? We all know who the right choice for the #1 pick was.

Obviously Memphis sees something every time KAT drives, they tie him up constantly looking for a jump ball. It's happened on 3 of his last 5 touches in the paint

If it wasn't for a 21-0 run by Memphis they should be down 3-1 in this series
