    Ugh, I wish we could run it back next season with Curry, Hood, Kanter, and a healthy Nurkic.

    With another year of development for our young guys, KD and Cousins leaving Golden State, and Curry, Hood, and Kanter more comfortable and playing well, we could get the 1 seed. Ugh.

    Huh? I was pointing out that Collins is a good defensive player when the box score may not show it. How that’s angry I’m unsure

    I feel like Hood could shoot 40% from 3pt if he got his arc up as high as he did on that last shot.

    "Play Simons a ton", "Play the young guys", "It doesn't matter", "we have 0 chance to advance so just develop"...

    Hood, Curry, and Kanter off the bench with how they've been playing lately... Would we have the best bench in the NBA? I don't count the Clippers because they start worse players over Lou Williams and Montrezl Harrell.

    He's one of those guys who shoots with his legs, it seems like all the power in his shoot comes from his legs, you can tell almost every time he shoots if it's going to go in based on how his feet are set, it's fascinating.

    Yeah a lot of it is release timing. When he's off it's always because his shot is flat.

    Curry and Hood are the best backup guards we have had in a very long time imo. We need them one more year at least, I don’t see Simons/Trent picking up that slack.

    And I know Hood plays a lot of 3

    Yeah for the record, I have liked Hood a lot more than I expected, I just find his shot interesting.

    Ah. But we already secured a playoff spot. And we’re not gonna win a Championship. I liked us a lot at full strength but we’re pretty fucking far from that. That’s all

    I hope we can re-sign Hood, Kanter, and Curry. These guys are very good for us.

    I'm agreeing with you, he does that now, and he's gotten worse in that area because he didn't do that much at Gonzaga.
