Onto the next one

royo · Nov 24, 2021

Trap game for Warriors.

THE HCP · Nov 24, 2021

Quiet bus ride to SF

Minstrel · Nov 25, 2021

Maybe Lillard will pretend this is a home game since it's near Oakland. Though it's not really him that worries me.

Maybe the Warriors will just look past this game--unfortunately, they don't seem to be doing a lot of that.

Tince · Nov 25, 2021

All signs point to an easy win. Book it!

AldoTrapani · Nov 25, 2021

Lol no comment. I still don’t get why ya don’t want to rebuild but hope we win

TBpup · Nov 25, 2021

Not likely we get the same game from Nurk, so other players will have to step up.

Buffalo Custard · Nov 25, 2021

After the debacle in Sac-Town I'm having trouble even caring about the rest of the road trip. 20 games into the season teams are starting to develop an identity - and ours doesn't thrill me.

Yep. we're boned.

FlashWad · Nov 25, 2021

This could get really ugly.. still a fan no matter what let’s see what we are made of.

wizenheimer · Nov 25, 2021

is the poll some kind of trick question? (read it again, only read it while half awake)

by the way, last season, Curry averaged 9.3 FTA's against Portland. Dame averaged 7 FTA against the Warriors

this game is just about as close to certain a Warriors win as you can get. Which means, if you've watched the NBA for a long time, Portland has a real shot at winning in an upset

of course there is this: Warriors lead the league in 3 pointers made and are 4th in 3ptFG%. Blazers are 28th in 3-point defense...UH OH part 1...Warriors are 2nd in the league in offensive rating; Blazers are 28th in defensive rating...UH OH part 2

Labinot41 · Nov 25, 2021

This team is so far away from being a Contender like a North- and South Korea reunion

They better be

UKRAINEFAN · Nov 25, 2021

Warriors not only have a hell-of-a starting five but also hell-of-a bench.

Yeah, that's the scary thing--I think I read they have the best bench net rating or something. In the past, the Warriors were vulnerable in their non-Curry minutes. This year, it seems like they often expand the lead when Curry is on the bench.

AldoTrapani · Nov 25, 2021

Who would have thought Jordan Poole is better than Cj this year lmao

DDolla · Nov 25, 2021

Easy money… bet on Warriors.

Cugel · Nov 25, 2021

The selfish play has to stop . If you don’t have it that night, pass and defend. Fuck the 30 ft daggers too with a 6 pt lead, save that for a 26 pt lead.

look for curry to flirt with 60, hell they could rest him and be fine

BigGameDamian · Nov 25, 2021

The fact that Neil Olshey is still with the team shows the front office just doesn’t care that much.

This was a test for Billups and his "more accountability" rhetoric. He flunked.

Where the hell was Ant anyway? I somehow missed that explanation.

CJ's scoring more points, has a way better three point percentage, gets more assists and rebounds, and has a better PER for whatever that's worth. I think Poole is on a better team than CJ and is contributing to more wins than CJ but he's not better. Now when you factor in that Poole makes less than 10% of what CJ does... he is certainly a better value but not a better player.

I think we're still in wait and see mode. On Saturday a new CEO officially takes over the team, so I could definitely see the team waiting until then to announce any decisions that have been made in regards to Olshey's future. McGowan quitting is a logical reason for this to be drawing out.

While the process taking longer makes me lean towards the team wanting to keep Olshey, they really might just be waiting until they know if they will say he was fired with cause or because he and the organization no longer are on the same path (aka have to pay him or not).

Duplication of value and diminishing marginal returns. We got this!

bobf · Nov 25, 2021

Ok, Blazers - win this one and all is forgiven.

THE HCP · Nov 25, 2021

Nurk will pick up 2 fouls in the first 5 minutes in this one.

...how much does he hate playing with CJ? Vs playing for Billups? 50/50

80/20?
