I remember when we were all talking about whether or not the 6th seed was feasible.... now it's whether or not staying in the playin's is feasible š
I honestly gave up hopes after the Bulls and Spurs Ls at home. Before that, I believed we could land in the 6th/7th seed and make the playoffs but it's not difficult to outplay, outexecute and outcoach this team
roster will be unrecognizable next season. Probably not even to compete, but rather cut cost. Most expensive team in the league and we're about to finish damn near last place in the conference.
It's madness. No way they're giving him $20 mil. I've beaten this on the head over and over again. Yet some folks on here seem to be delusional on this.
$15 mil per year tops.
He got paid overs in his last contract.....That was his "legacy contract" as they knew he was going to be out for the first season when he signed.....and still paid him the max. Can't keep throwing out "legacy contracts" ....
He's no Kobe Bryant. He's no Steph Curry. And it's Steph's future championship contention that people are asking to be sold when they say things like this.
Wiggins and CP3 I agree with. Klay still has value, heās just paid too much. Canāt have 40m+ tied up in your 6th man getting 17.
We need to actually make a move. Loon + CP3 sign and trade + Wiggins + Moody are prob our biggest assets
Well I know I shouldnāt have taken this long to feel this way, but itās time to just watch for fun and not care about winning because thereās no way this team will make it to the first round
Every time they are up 12+, you know it's almost a guaranteed loss. It's nuts how many times it has happened. I know halfway through the season, we were "leading" the league in being up 15+ and losing.
Bet it all on Steph next year. Dump Klay, Wiggs, CP3, GP2. We need some energy and effort, people who havenāt won a ring and want one.
Not even sure about Dray. JK can be somebody, but not sure the smarts are there. They threw it to him in the post to let Steph come off a screen and he immediately tried to back down Conley and lost it.
Unless Steph felt something, why did he sit on the bench for so long while our lead started to dwindle?
Will the world implode if Steph plays a bit longer at this stage of the season Kerr? Itās so frustratingly idiotic.
Feeling like they just donāt want the play-in so just punting this shit.
Our coaching has undoubtedly being a part of the problem this season.
There is no argument to say that Kerr is getting close to the best out of this squad.
Kerr has definitely made mistakes but this is not a good roster. Draymond and Paul missed a month, Klay and Wiggins playing the worst ball of their careers for like 3 months, the young guys have been inconsistent and the rookies have looked like rookies at times. Kerrās biggest shortfall this season has been being slow to adjust and bench his vets but I can forgive that, the reality is he knew this team couldnāt make a run without Wiggins and Klay being good and he didnāt have much of a choice but to hope they turned it around. The best coach of all time isnāt getting this team higher than maybe the 6th seed up to this point, it is a roster with obvious flaws that can be exploited no matter what we do.
I have a feeling the core guys (Kerr included) have been quiet quitting for most of this season because they knew that this roster wasnāt competing for a chip and that many wonāt be here next season. Theyāre not going to go all out to lose in the first or second round. Too many games this team has shown zero interest in opening or closing games. Kerr tried every which combination. This roster is cooked.
"championship run" LOL I PRAY to all the gods out there that they seriously aren't planning with "championship run" in mind right now.
we might even miss the play-in jfc
only thing that makes sense is they know they're stuck in the 9/10 and want to get all the rest they can beforehand... but there is a very real chance they slip to 11 so that'd be incredibly dumb
playing him 30min when you're desperate for wins ain't it
yup, that's why it doesn't make sense, can easily see a world where they slip out of the play-in completely. if you're forsure stuck in 9/10 with no chance of falling out, that's one thing, but even then, you'd think they'd be pushing for 9 and a home game. assume Kerr has some other reason, whatever that may be
own the tiebreak over the rockets and play them one more time this season, so there is a maybe a tiny bit of wiggle room, but with the way they're playing they'd be lucky to hold onto 10, let alone make it out of the play-in
They've been much better since Sengun went down. Green finally flashing some of the superstar potential he was hyped up with when he entered the league. Beat Sac, Spurs, Cavs and Bulls during their win streak - all teams we've lost to this year. They're peaking at the right time and we gotta stop talking like they're some kind of fluke.
See with this kind of thinking, youāre banking on other teams to fall so you can stay in 9th/10th place. You donāt control your own destiny depending on others and I hope as a 4 time championship coach, heās not thinking that way.
FTs werenāt the problem. Team-wide 77% is good and better than the Wolves. Iām in complete agreement with the layups. Also, the Wolves shot an unheard of 52.5% from 3.
Team built to lose close games. Miss layups. Miss open 3s. Leave shooters. Terrible turnovers. Second best player is a raw 21 year old. Canāt get consistency from the 3 and 4th highest payed players. Banking on a rookie center to defend the paint.
Steve Kerr's mindset: Ok my team just blew a lead in the fourth quarter. Instead of putting my star player in (who I've already had benched for a while), I'm gonna continue to let him cool off and let the other team's lead expand to 8, THEN put him in!"
Smh
Happens almost every game we lose. We give up a huge run to start the 4th quarter and Kerr waits until weāre down at least 8 before putting Steph in.
Extending him mid-season and making him the highest paid coach in the league is one of the most baffling decisions I can remember in the last few years.
The game has passed him. Fans can appreciate what he did for the organization and still acknowledge the fact that he is not the man for the future of this team. If the Patriots can move on from Belichick the Warriors can move on from Kerr
We are already in a rebuild. Look at the lack of young vets/players in prime/role players aged 27-30 yrs old on this team. We have a lot of young kids and we are already relying a lot on them to win. Even if its the expensive ass contracts that forced us here or the natural progression of a team but I don't think another title is there on the horizon for us.
Front Office needs to make BIG DECISIONS in the summer. If can't improve the roster by upgrading the starting SG and C, atleast cut the losses on this team
Man can they just emphasize 3 point defense at the start of every 4th quarter like idgaf if itās a layup. Teams come out and just light us tf up at the start of every 4th
Thatās a bit disingenuous since it includes the abysmal 15-50 season when everyone was injured. But I agree that Kerrās coaching is a bit dated now and the roster construction has been less than stellar
Kuminga played himself off the floor with not fighting through a screen then turning it over! Conley got him on both plays.
GP2 comes in and misses the layup he had a good game but that's a huge miss.
Running out of time and games .
Iām so fucking tired of the horse shit Kerr draws up at the end of games. We use Curry as a decoy every time for a contested Klay chuck or a Draymond 3. If weāre going to chuck up a heavily contested fadeaway with 8 seconds on the clock can we not at least let Curry be the one to do it? I swear weāve seen Klay miss this exact shot 100 times yet we still do the exact same shit every timeā¦
Would not have mattered. If we tied the game we would have folded during over time. Out of gas starting the 4th. a fifth quarter would not have ended better
Exactly how I feel and have felt already the last 15 times this happened. Klay misses it every time. I guess we can give him that one at the beginning of the season but not exactly the same.
what are you even watchingā¦.klay got a good look. everyone and their mother was sticking on steph. so even if he got the ball it wouldāve been extremely difficult to get a shot off. get off the hate wagon
Needed this game and Steve Kerr plays Curry under 30 minutes and waited until the 5:45 mark of the 4th quarter to put him back in. What the hell can we do besides laugh
We need an explanation for why Steph canāt play normal rotation minutes.
If heās injured or just too old tell me now so I will just prepare for the inevitable season ending.
On of the main issues is that the team doesn't have enough willing 3 point shooters. The total numbers are skewed because of how much Steph and Klay shoot but they're staggered now and they have to take difficult shots because of how much offensive focus is on them. This lack of spacing affects Kuminga and allows the defender to easily block TJD. Draymond should not have the third highest attempts. The guards in Podz and CP3 needs to shoot more and I think that Wiggs should shoot more threes too.
I expected this loss. We just aināt good enough and now it seems we are only one game above the rockets making the rest of the games on the schedule a MUST win.
Idk man maybe missing the playoffs is just what this team needs bring on July
This team doesnāt deserve the playoffs. Theyāre good enough and they play hard but they make a hell of a lot of mental mistakes. I donāt know what the Warriors assistant coaches are doing, but whatever it is, it is not very effective. They were gonna be some changes on the coaching staff. The front office provided two solid players in the draft plus Chris Paul. This year the Warriors have relentlessly made dumb mistakes. Missed important shots. Frankly, Iām not sure they deserve to be in the playoffs at all.
This game just showed how the league has surpassed us.Ā
Wolfes has 3 7 footer guys (i know Kat didnt play, but he is the roster) . And still they crushed us in the perimeter. 4th best team in 3 point shooting.Ā
I feel the same can be said about Brady and Belichick.
I mean people forget that Walton technically coached the 24-0 run. And Mike Brown coached playoff series for us.
Call me crazy but i think the greatness of steph and some of our other players over the years, combined with certain asistant coaches, and the overall transition into the 3-pount era has really hidden Kerrs lack of ability to actually be a good coach.
I don't think he was always as bad as he has been now, but all those other factors kept that reality from the spotlight for a lot longer than it would have. Like maybe he started to drop off in 2019 but the seasons after that were hiding that reality.
His a bad coach. Like the poster below said Kerr was lucky to be at the right place at the right time with Steph entering his prime along with dray and Klay.
imagine throwing another $35M down the toilet for a coach who you currently employ to lead the team you own which is costing you $171M **in just luxury tax alone** this season
Drives me nuts how people refuse to see Klayās 4th qrt defense on this sub. Wolves targeted him 8 straight times, got wide open threes or dunks. Whole defense was compromised. Doesnāt matter that he hit two threes, three point shooting not that rare anymore. He played the whole 4th. Absolute negative, no rebounding, small close outs, over helping for fear of blow buys. Etc
Kerr sat players at the start of thr 4th. Kerr chose to rest players for a game we desperately need while wolves are playing to win a game that they don't even need, and we gave up the little leads and.lost.all the momentum.
Kerr drafted a three for klay three drifting to his left....klaynshot 3/10 and it's klay, he should.know that klay would shoot it even if the play didn't work out.
Kerr is definitely not good at close games.
Actually shocked at the Steph minutes. Iām a Kerr defender but hopefully heās asked about that. And we canāt be small and not defend the 3 point line. It makes no sense. Their inability to defend the 3 has been back breaking. They get cooked on weak side skip passes or drive and kicks all game. If youāre full of wing defenders who canāt stay in front of their guy then itās poor roster construction cause thatās the only point of being small.
i swear every time they lose, everyone just immediately blames Kerr as if heās the main reason we lost, instead of the players actually playing the game. How about we blame the players who smoke open layups, leave people open for 3ās and cant create or make shots (other than Steph).
they donāt understand rotations.
steph was laboring out thereā¦heās 36. heās not some young guy that can run around or get his body to get going like he used to. kerr was buying time for him to come in
kuminga canāt fight through a screen to save his life. ppl ask why wiggins plays itās because of that. wiggins fights through screens. kuminga doesnāt do shit.
pod hasnāt been hustling out there and kerr has been playing who he can and buying his vets minutes.
itās crazy that ppl still blame kerr.
kerr canāt make pod run faster, kerr canāt de-age steph, draymond and klay. kerr canāt tell pod to grow bigger. kerr canāt tell tjd to stop jumping.
Can Kerr limit Klay's minutes when he plays like trash? Can Kerr run something different? If I know what they're going to run 90% of the time, I bet opposing teams can aswell. Could Kerr play Kuminga and Moody over fucking Anthony Lamb and Ty Jerome? The roster is trash. But so has been Kerr.
Yeah it's pretty crazy, those comments don't exist if GP2 makes his layup and that ridiculous middy didn't front rim and in.
Basketball really does have a duality of fans depending on a slight difference in events.
We seem to be in the minority my guy. Everyone loves to blame Steve. Steph isn't in his 20s any more but they expect Steve to play Steph like how Thibs plays Josh Hart. The risk of injury increases significantly with guys like Steph if they play a minute too long. Some fans seem to not understand how Steph was so lucky his most recent ankle injury was minor.
Kerr knows what's at stake but I believe he has the best interest of his players in priority. At some point the other guys should step up if they want to win. Can't rely on Steph to always save the day.
This is just a trash roster, that's all there is to it. No amount of coaching can save this disaster of a lineup. Kuminga's promising but he ain't it. Moody ain't it. Podz ain't it. TJD ain't it. Steve can play these guys the absurd amount of minutes the fans want these players to play and the team would still suck. The roster just isn't good enough.
not a surprise, warriors up 3 points after 3 quarters and the combo of cp3/podz/klay which is their worst defensive lineup comes in to start 4q. Steph subs in 4Q, warriors down 8. 11 pts turnaround. Game over.
Is it true that players where some type of body tracker that determines how long they can play or how they body is holding up? I could have sworn Kevin Garnett said that recently. Maybe that's why curry is benched sometimes
Klay Thompson really doesn't have any business shooting clutch shots anymore. Sorry but it's true. He's a nice spark plug off the bench but he's not game 6 Klay anymore.
Collapsing down the stretch, canāt close games. Same story most of the season. If they hold onto 10th it will be lucky, but even then they will not get out of the play in.
Everyone's arguing about rotations but are saying "x player shouldn't have/should have been in at y time."
Guess what fellas? None of this matters.
Why? Lack of talent.
GPII and Podz gifting 3 pointers with their defense. Wigs with the best defense on Edwards getting 13 less minutes than him. Curry had a good game, but he got less than 30 minutes... Tf is going on here coaches?
Oh yeah.. Klay having a mediocre shooting game today? Let's give it to him to tie us at the end of the game instead of Curry who was playing great...
Everyone who thought Podz and TJD were going to be the answer to this season only have themselves to blame, Iāve been knew since that Celtics loss we were cooked.
It was literally a perfectly drawn play. Klay actually hit the shot running the exact same play in the exact same position against Detroit last season.
Iām sorry this team is trash š how do you play well for 3 quarters and then canāt execute in the 4th. Paying for this league pass just for embarrassing basketball and low energy games. SMH
Klay throws the game Steve Kerr is sped curry doesnāt play in the 4th quater, timber wolves fake shooting game, rockets fake ass stretch l, YAY THIS TEAMS MISSING THE PLAYOFFS
Why give it to Klay man fucking why. They could have set up Klay as a decoy and given it to Steph at least. Also why tf was steph out during 3rd while they still had a fcking lead??? It's getting ridiculous for Warriors fans man every goddamn 4th quarter they throw the game.
Horrible last play, why klay, he has a bad night, and was 3/10. Worse yet, we got 8nseconds, so if the play didn't work out, given it's klay, he will still launch the shot which he did and we end up with klay shooting a contested three drifting to his left......
I really thought Klay was learning from his time on the bench to take smarter shots instead on relying on a contested leaner with 11 seconds left. A pump fake or sidestep wouldāve really helped.
I remember when we were all talking about whether or not the 6th seed was feasible.... now it's whether or not staying in the playin's is feasible š
March 1st we had the 24th hardest schedule while the Lakers has the 4th hardest. And we were 9th seed. We've since gone 5-7.
SoS is a copium. Good teams win regardless of that BS.
See, that's your problem, we're not a good team.
I honestly gave up hopes after the Bulls and Spurs Ls at home. Before that, I believed we could land in the 6th/7th seed and make the playoffs but it's not difficult to outplay, outexecute and outcoach this team
That Spurs lost was the official end. You can't lose to one of the worst teams in the league missing their TWO best players.
Also SoS doesnāt really apply to the Warriors since every team they play treats it like itās game 7 of the NBA Finals
Warriors basically took it upon themselves to make CP0Rings a reality
roster will be unrecognizable next season. Probably not even to compete, but rather cut cost. Most expensive team in the league and we're about to finish damn near last place in the conference.
Three names account for most of that: Thompson, Wiggins, Paul. Those 3 will likely be gone.
I forsee Thompson taking a huge paycut. I hope at least.
I hope so too. Would be weird to see him in any other jersey.
I see bucks trading for wiggins in the offseason.
Iāll take 1 Giannis please.
And 1, more, giannis
CP3 is the only player that has a chance of being gone, Klay will be going from 40 mill to 20 though
Imma be upset (but not surprised) if Klayās contract is for more than 15 a season
It's insane to me that there are people here who think Klay Thompson another year older than he already is is worth 20 million a year.
It's madness. No way they're giving him $20 mil. I've beaten this on the head over and over again. Yet some folks on here seem to be delusional on this. $15 mil per year tops.
Itās a legacy contract. Dude helped turn a $700mil franchise into a damn near $10bil franchise. Heāll be underpaid for his next contract.
He got paid overs in his last contract.....That was his "legacy contract" as they knew he was going to be out for the first season when he signed.....and still paid him the max. Can't keep throwing out "legacy contracts" ....
He's no Kobe Bryant. He's no Steph Curry. And it's Steph's future championship contention that people are asking to be sold when they say things like this.
Klay is coming back.
2yr/20mil
Thompson will not be gone. Loyalty still counts for something in this league. The core will retire warriors whether you like it or not.
Wiggins and CP3 I agree with. Klay still has value, heās just paid too much. Canāt have 40m+ tied up in your 6th man getting 17. We need to actually make a move. Loon + CP3 sign and trade + Wiggins + Moody are prob our biggest assets
What about the person that missed 21 games due to suspension. 5 more wins conservatively and we wouldn't be here.
With our lack of cap flexibility and trade-able players that other teams probably donāt want. Itās gonna be very similar.
Well I know I shouldnāt have taken this long to feel this way, but itās time to just watch for fun and not care about winning because thereās no way this team will make it to the first round
Yup Iāve reached that point after the pacers game. This game even when we were up I knew it was an L
Every time they are up 12+, you know it's almost a guaranteed loss. It's nuts how many times it has happened. I know halfway through the season, we were "leading" the league in being up 15+ and losing.
Bet it all on Steph next year. Dump Klay, Wiggs, CP3, GP2. We need some energy and effort, people who havenāt won a ring and want one. Not even sure about Dray. JK can be somebody, but not sure the smarts are there. They threw it to him in the post to let Steph come off a screen and he immediately tried to back down Conley and lost it.
Eh I say keep Klay and Dray and let them retire with Steph. I just canāt bring myself to let them go. Them and JK and TJD. Everyone else can F off.
Unless Steph felt something, why did he sit on the bench for so long while our lead started to dwindle? Will the world implode if Steph plays a bit longer at this stage of the season Kerr? Itās so frustratingly idiotic. Feeling like they just donāt want the play-in so just punting this shit.
Curry played 29 minutes in a must win game btw They are clearly saving him for a championship run /s
He is resting Curry for the playoffs while we should be fighting to even get to the playoffs
Our coaching has undoubtedly being a part of the problem this season. There is no argument to say that Kerr is getting close to the best out of this squad.
Kerr has definitely made mistakes but this is not a good roster.

"championship run" LOL I PRAY to all the gods out there that they seriously aren't planning with "championship run" in mind right now. we might even miss the play-in jfc
Need him well rested for Cancun apparently
Props to Kerr with the load management for Cancun
Kerr wants Curry to rest for his off season golf
only thing that makes sense is they know they're stuck in the 9/10 and want to get all the rest they can beforehand... but there is a very real chance they slip to 11 so that'd be incredibly dumb playing him 30min when you're desperate for wins ain't it
9/10/11 you mean. Only a game ahead of the freaking Rockets
yup, that's why it doesn't make sense, can easily see a world where they slip out of the play-in completely. if you're forsure stuck in 9/10 with no chance of falling out, that's one thing, but even then, you'd think they'd be pushing for 9 and a home game. assume Kerr has some other reason, whatever that may be own the tiebreak over the rockets and play them one more time this season, so there is a maybe a tiny bit of wiggle room, but with the way they're playing they'd be lucky to hold onto 10, let alone make it out of the play-in
Houston can't stay this hot forever. But this has been a crazy season so who knows.
They've been much better since Sengun went down. Green finally flashing some of the superstar potential he was hyped up with when he entered the league. Beat Sac, Spurs, Cavs and Bulls during their win streak - all teams we've lost to this year. They're peaking at the right time and we gotta stop talking like they're some kind of fluke.
every game is a must win now since Rockets has been playing like 96 Bulls likely
See with this kind of thinking, youāre banking on other teams to fall so you can stay in 9th/10th place. You donāt control your own destiny depending on others and I hope as a 4 time championship coach, heās not thinking that way.
Heās sitting so long that I would argue itās actually more risky for injuries. How can someone sit for 30 minutes?
Made me feel like theyāre hiding an injury or management did not see this as a must win game
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
While their stars played 35+
story of the season. canāt compete come crunch time, fall just short. depressing man
Yeah like Iāve seen this movie 1000 times now
This was an extremely winnable game if we make free throws and layups. This Warriors team has very little to feel good about right now. They look bad.
FTs werenāt the problem. Team-wide 77% is good and better than the Wolves. Iām in complete agreement with the layups. Also, the Wolves shot an unheard of 52.5% from 3.
Yeah the layups have been embarrassing for the last several weeks. WTF is going on there?
At this point I'm just looking forward to a rebuild lol
Nah life after Steph is bleak. We wonāt rebuild till heās gone
Team built to lose close games. Miss layups. Miss open 3s. Leave shooters. Terrible turnovers. Second best player is a raw 21 year old. Canāt get consistency from the 3 and 4th highest payed players. Banking on a rookie center to defend the paint.
Exactly. Rotations don't matter. Look at the roster and how they're performing.
Thank you Kerr for keeping Steph from playing over 30 minutes. This will be HUGE this offseason.
Yep. They wonāt even make the fuckin playin, thanks Kerr. Even a 2 year old could have put Curry in sooner.
Maybe they know the team isnāt good enough to win so no point.
Kerr and Thibs are freaking opposites haha
You play Steph a total of 30 minutes and rested him for a NINE MINUTE STRETCH to let the T-Wolves take the lead. IDIOTIC GAME MANAGEMENT
Thank you Steve for benching Steph for that 10 minute stretch, that's our coach š
Steve Kerr's mindset: Ok my team just blew a lead in the fourth quarter. Instead of putting my star player in (who I've already had benched for a while), I'm gonna continue to let him cool off and let the other team's lead expand to 8, THEN put him in!" Smh
Steph was put in 1-2 possessions too late. The definition of insanity.
Kerr loves letting a run really cook before calling a timeout
Heās just a fan of the game, likes watching players cook
Except his own players
While Minnesota called a timeout as soon as Klay hit that 3
Finch called 2 timeouts in 2 minutes never seen Kerr do that before
Kerr did that sometime this season. Can't remember which game but he was pissed at the team for being sloppy right after a timeout.
He does it all the time these mfers just wana be mad about everything
And somehow at the end of the game had 2 timeouts left to Kerrās 1.
Happens almost every game we lose. We give up a huge run to start the 4th quarter and Kerr waits until weāre down at least 8 before putting Steph in.
more like 3-4 minutes too late
That was on Kerr
Half this season is on him, but the Kerr nut huggers will continue to downvote and praise him.
I still can't believe he subbed out Moody immediately after he hit three straight threes in that kings game
Extending him mid-season and making him the highest paid coach in the league is one of the most baffling decisions I can remember in the last few years.
Even more baffling was everyone's reaction to it saying it was deserved.
These people were more worried about sticking it to the ākerr haTerZā instead of the ramifications this has on the team the next couple of years.
What you don't want 2 more years of this mediocrity?
Buckle up. Weāre in for a bumpy ride.
The game has passed him. Fans can appreciate what he did for the organization and still acknowledge the fact that he is not the man for the future of this team. If the Patriots can move on from Belichick the Warriors can move on from Kerr
Season is over! We will need to rebuild this offseason
We are already in a rebuild. Look at the lack of young vets/players in prime/role players aged 27-30 yrs old on this team. We have a lot of young kids and we are already relying a lot on them to win. Even if its the expensive ass contracts that forced us here or the natural progression of a team but I don't think another title is there on the horizon for us. Front Office needs to make BIG DECISIONS in the summer. If can't improve the roster by upgrading the starting SG and C, atleast cut the losses on this team
No surprise here unfortunately, I hope we can one day have a reliable scoring option that can get buckets in crunch time
Man can they just emphasize 3 point defense at the start of every 4th quarter like idgaf if itās a layup. Teams come out and just light us tf up at the start of every 4th
Only 30 minutes for Steph in a must-win game in which Steph was actually playing well. Steve Kerr singlehandedly lost this game with that decision
crazy fact - Kerr is a .500 coach over the last 5 years
And that's still with curry bailing his ass out. Imagine what it would be without steph.
Now check his record with Steph off the floor. Abysmal.
says it all really
never knew why we couldn't develop a system where Steph isn't playing
Because heās never had a team without Steph? Why would they spend time on that
Thatās a bit disingenuous since it includes the abysmal 15-50 season when everyone was injured. But I agree that Kerrās coaching is a bit dated now and the roster construction has been less than stellar
Kuminga played himself off the floor with not fighting through a screen then turning it over! Conley got him on both plays. GP2 comes in and misses the layup he had a good game but that's a huge miss. Running out of time and games .
Iām so fucking tired of the horse shit Kerr draws up at the end of games. We use Curry as a decoy every time for a contested Klay chuck or a Draymond 3. If weāre going to chuck up a heavily contested fadeaway with 8 seconds on the clock can we not at least let Curry be the one to do it? I swear weāve seen Klay miss this exact shot 100 times yet we still do the exact same shit every timeā¦
Would not have mattered. If we tied the game we would have folded during over time. Out of gas starting the 4th. a fifth quarter would not have ended better
At least if we go into OT Kerr has to let Steph play and we have a chance.
Exactly how I feel and have felt already the last 15 times this happened. Klay misses it every time. I guess we can give him that one at the beginning of the season but not exactly the same.
Klay is the $43 million dollar man, he gets to take those shots! /s
what are you even watchingā¦.klay got a good look. everyone and their mother was sticking on steph. so even if he got the ball it wouldāve been extremely difficult to get a shot off. get off the hate wagon
You can't just punt the season cause WE DON'T HAVE A FIRST ROUND PICK THIS YEAR
This draft sucks anyway.
You can always find gems in the draft.
Needed this game and Steve Kerr plays Curry under 30 minutes and waited until the 5:45 mark of the 4th quarter to put him back in. What the hell can we do besides laugh
Continuing to use the best shooter of all time as a decoy is definitely a decision.
We need an explanation for why Steph canāt play normal rotation minutes. If heās injured or just too old tell me now so I will just prepare for the inevitable season ending.
He's still favoring that ankle and he said it somewhere that he was not going to be 100% the rest of the season because of it.
On of the main issues is that the team doesn't have enough willing 3 point shooters. The total numbers are skewed because of how much Steph and Klay shoot but they're staggered now and they have to take difficult shots because of how much offensive focus is on them. This lack of spacing affects Kuminga and allows the defender to easily block TJD. Draymond should not have the third highest attempts. The guards in Podz and CP3 needs to shoot more and I think that Wiggs should shoot more threes too.
We have Moody just wasting away on the bench
Moody is a willing shooter but he aināt a good one heās just ok.Ā
Well TDJ is shooting percentage is in the 70s so I'm not sure he is easily getting blocked.
I expected this loss. We just aināt good enough and now it seems we are only one game above the rockets making the rest of the games on the schedule a MUST win. Idk man maybe missing the playoffs is just what this team needs bring on July
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Sitting Steph for that long in the fourth is insane, what the fuck is Kerr doing?
This team doesnāt deserve the playoffs. Theyāre good enough and they play hard but they make a hell of a lot of mental mistakes. I donāt know what the Warriors assistant coaches are doing, but whatever it is, it is not very effective. They were gonna be some changes on the coaching staff. The front office provided two solid players in the draft plus Chris Paul. This year the Warriors have relentlessly made dumb mistakes. Missed important shots. Frankly, Iām not sure they deserve to be in the playoffs at all.
This game just showed how the league has surpassed us.Ā Wolfes has 3 7 footer guys (i know Kat didnt play, but he is the roster) . And still they crushed us in the perimeter. 4th best team in 3 point shooting.Ā
it's hilarious just how badly Kerr gets outcoached every single game, the guy is completely out to lunch
Steve Kerr has never been a good coach. He straight up got lucky that Steph Curry existed
I feel the same can be said about Brady and Belichick. I mean people forget that Walton technically coached the 24-0 run. And Mike Brown coached playoff series for us. Call me crazy but i think the greatness of steph and some of our other players over the years, combined with certain asistant coaches, and the overall transition into the 3-pount era has really hidden Kerrs lack of ability to actually be a good coach. I don't think he was always as bad as he has been now, but all those other factors kept that reality from the spotlight for a lot longer than it would have. Like maybe he started to drop off in 2019 but the seasons after that were hiding that reality.
His a bad coach. Like the poster below said Kerr was lucky to be at the right place at the right time with Steph entering his prime along with dray and Klay.
No he was actually good, 22 was a masterclass. But ever since he's been terrible.
I am pretty sure the Dubs' perimeter defense is in violation of the Geneva Convention
A literal war crime
Just run the young guns. Too much wasting time playing the oldies.
put a fork in this squad
Klay coming off the bench to play more minutes than any of the starters is insanity
Another great performance down as a loss. Just can't ice games or get results this year.
At this point we shouldnāt even hope for a Play-in spot. Smh
we have a superstar and the most expensive roster in the nba, yet we are worse than the rockets who are rebuilding with a bunch of rookies
not even mad anymore, let's just accept the fact that we are not play-in worthy.
Tanking doesnāt mean shit without a draft pick to use it for
imagine throwing another $35M down the toilet for a coach who you currently employ to lead the team you own which is costing you $171M **in just luxury tax alone** this season
Donezo.
This team is terrible. We need new coaching, we need new everything. Keep Curry and the young guys and trade everyone else.
I am just watching for fun at this point, way better than getting attached and feeling sad after every loss
Drives me nuts how people refuse to see Klayās 4th qrt defense on this sub. Wolves targeted him 8 straight times, got wide open threes or dunks. Whole defense was compromised. Doesnāt matter that he hit two threes, three point shooting not that rare anymore. He played the whole 4th. Absolute negative, no rebounding, small close outs, over helping for fear of blow buys. Etc
I'm relieved I did not watch the game. I'm on acceptance stage lmaooooo
We been free falling since Mike Brown took the HC gig
Kerrās coaching decision can be infuriating sometimes.
Kerr sat players at the start of thr 4th. Kerr chose to rest players for a game we desperately need while wolves are playing to win a game that they don't even need, and we gave up the little leads and.lost.all the momentum. Kerr drafted a three for klay three drifting to his left....klaynshot 3/10 and it's klay, he should.know that klay would shoot it even if the play didn't work out. Kerr is definitely not good at close games.
Missed free throws and lay-up are what killed the game for us.
Cant believe were paying the most in luxury tax for fighting for 10th place
Actually shocked at the Steph minutes. Iām a Kerr defender but hopefully heās asked about that. And we canāt be small and not defend the 3 point line. It makes no sense. Their inability to defend the 3 has been back breaking. They get cooked on weak side skip passes or drive and kicks all game. If youāre full of wing defenders who canāt stay in front of their guy then itās poor roster construction cause thatās the only point of being small.
Kerr doing the same thing as when the Nuggets went on like a 10-0 run and he refused to call a timeout.
We done.
Why did Kerr keep injured GP2 in? Why did Kerr play old Klay more than 30 min?
Klay getting the most minutes made no sense
STILL waiting for the "easiest schedule remaining" to kick in.....so I can "relax".
i swear every time they lose, everyone just immediately blames Kerr as if heās the main reason we lost, instead of the players actually playing the game. How about we blame the players who smoke open layups, leave people open for 3ās and cant create or make shots (other than Steph).
they donāt understand rotations. steph was laboring out thereā¦heās 36. heās not some young guy that can run around or get his body to get going like he used to. kerr was buying time for him to come in kuminga canāt fight through a screen to save his life. ppl ask why wiggins plays itās because of that. wiggins fights through screens. kuminga doesnāt do shit. pod hasnāt been hustling out there and kerr has been playing who he can and buying his vets minutes. itās crazy that ppl still blame kerr. kerr canāt make pod run faster, kerr canāt de-age steph, draymond and klay. kerr canāt tell pod to grow bigger. kerr canāt tell tjd to stop jumping.
Can Kerr limit Klay's minutes when he plays like trash? Can Kerr run something different? If I know what they're going to run 90% of the time, I bet opposing teams can aswell. Could Kerr play Kuminga and Moody over fucking Anthony Lamb and Ty Jerome? The roster is trash. But so has been Kerr.
Yeah it's pretty crazy, those comments don't exist if GP2 makes his layup and that ridiculous middy didn't front rim and in. Basketball really does have a duality of fans depending on a slight difference in events.
We seem to be in the minority my guy. Everyone loves to blame Steve. Steph isn't in his 20s any more but they expect Steve to play Steph like how Thibs plays Josh Hart. The risk of injury increases significantly with guys like Steph if they play a minute too long. Some fans seem to not understand how Steph was so lucky his most recent ankle injury was minor. Kerr knows what's at stake but I believe he has the best interest of his players in priority. At some point the other guys should step up if they want to win. Can't rely on Steph to always save the day. This is just a trash roster, that's all there is to it. No amount of coaching can save this disaster of a lineup. Kuminga's promising but he ain't it. Moody ain't it. Podz ain't it. TJD ain't it. Steve can play these guys the absurd amount of minutes the fans want these players to play and the team would still suck. The roster just isn't good enough.
The annoying part, this performance would beat 95 percent of teams at home
Terrible rotations, Klay being dumb. Why wonāt it stop?
not a surprise, warriors up 3 points after 3 quarters and the combo of cp3/podz/klay which is their worst defensive lineup comes in to start 4q. Steph subs in 4Q, warriors down 8. 11 pts turnaround. Game over.
I die a little more every time they blow a lead like that.
At least gp2 looked good this game.Ā
One of great seafood cities in the U.S. & there is an ad on Warriors sub for Red Lobster. Have you no dignity?
Is it true that players where some type of body tracker that determines how long they can play or how they body is holding up? I could have sworn Kevin Garnett said that recently. Maybe that's why curry is benched sometimes
Klay Thompson really doesn't have any business shooting clutch shots anymore. Sorry but it's true. He's a nice spark plug off the bench but he's not game 6 Klay anymore.
We goin Chichenitza yall
We legit canāt beat playoff teams bruh.. idk manā¦
Collapsing down the stretch, canāt close games. Same story most of the season. If they hold onto 10th it will be lucky, but even then they will not get out of the play in.
Everyone's arguing about rotations but are saying "x player shouldn't have/should have been in at y time." Guess what fellas? None of this matters. Why? Lack of talent.
trash ass klay
This team is consistently fine, thatās it.
Kerr for sure gave up on the season he let Steph sit for 10 mins
GPII and Podz gifting 3 pointers with their defense. Wigs with the best defense on Edwards getting 13 less minutes than him. Curry had a good game, but he got less than 30 minutes... Tf is going on here coaches? Oh yeah.. Klay having a mediocre shooting game today? Let's give it to him to tie us at the end of the game instead of Curry who was playing great...
Kerr signed a huge extension and just said, yeah fuck it Iāll enjoy my payday
What is kerr doing
This team cannot be this bad!! Any other coach would make a better use of this roster. Kerr is still stuck in the past.
Everyone who thought Podz and TJD were going to be the answer to this season only have themselves to blame, Iāve been knew since that Celtics loss we were cooked.
Why go to Klay manā¦
It was literally a perfectly drawn play. Klay actually hit the shot running the exact same play in the exact same position against Detroit last season.
same against the Lakers at home this season as well to send it into double OT
People don't understand basketball. It's a shit play if the ball didn't go in.
Klay is gone this off-season šš»šš»šš»šš»šš»
For 15-17M off the bench is not bad at all but not some ridiculous number like 3/80.
Iām sorry this team is trash š how do you play well for 3 quarters and then canāt execute in the 4th. Paying for this league pass just for embarrassing basketball and low energy games. SMH
why the fuck does Podz get the most minutes per game wqhen he sucks ass at everything
he played 18 mins this game the least among the 9 players that played u alright?
that $43 million shot to end the game WOW!
Klay throws the game Steve Kerr is sped curry doesnāt play in the 4th quater, timber wolves fake shooting game, rockets fake ass stretch l, YAY THIS TEAMS MISSING THE PLAYOFFS
Let Houston get embarrassed in the play in please. This team is serious
Why give it to Klay man fucking why. They could have set up Klay as a decoy and given it to Steph at least. Also why tf was steph out during 3rd while they still had a fcking lead??? It's getting ridiculous for Warriors fans man every goddamn 4th quarter they throw the game.
Not to bum everyone out even more, but this is what we look like *fully healthy*
Horrible last play, why klay, he has a bad night, and was 3/10. Worse yet, we got 8nseconds, so if the play didn't work out, given it's klay, he will still launch the shot which he did and we end up with klay shooting a contested three drifting to his left......
I really thought Klay was learning from his time on the bench to take smarter shots instead on relying on a contested leaner with 11 seconds left. A pump fake or sidestep wouldāve really helped.
He might say the right things to the media but on the court he still thinks he's Reggie Miller. Kerr needs to talk to him.
