Draymond is just helping his good friend Jordan Poole because if Draymond didn't pull his bullshit we'd all be talking about how loving terrible Jordan Poole is.

Steph has looked exhausted from the start in both these games and I thought it was because the Kings are bothering him so much, but maybe that’s just “playing with Dray/Klay/Poole” face.

Klay was like the only good player on the Warriors last night, followed by a "ok I guess" Wiggins.

He's not really able to do much anymore beyond just float around the perimeter or make really telegraphed drives that he can't do much with but he's still such a deadly shooter and still gets to the right places.

He wouldn't be unsufferable on another team, mainly because he'd just become, like, Bradley Beal and would shut up.

Beginning in 2024, all invited players will be required to attend and participate in the NBA Draft Combine or be ineligible to be drafted until the "first subsequent draft for which the player attends and fully participates."

Participation will include league medical examinations, sharing of medical history and biomechanical and functional movement testing, as well as strength and agility testing, shooting drills, performance testing and anthropometric measurements. Players will also be required to conduct team interviews, media circuits, player development sessions and other assessments, as determined by the NBA in consultation with the NBPA. Players will not be compelled to compete in five-on-five scrimmaging, which typically only a handful of first-round prospects elect to participate in.

its always been frustrating how Kerr refuses/is unable to contain Draymond. Maybe he's all in on players coach but the dude is out there costing series and championships with his dumbass antics. Draymond has basically said Kerr can't do about poo poo before. I'll miss his defense, dude had an all defense season AGAIN but im just so sick of his stupidity.

Kerrs lineups are pretty sus too. No Kuminga at center? The Kings bench squad beat up the Warriors starters for long stretches and Kerr just lets it ride.

Kings are playing excellent basketball and aside from a 4 minute stretch in the third, really good defense.

Kings vs Lakers will have my blood running hot for sure.

Yeah it was pretty obvious they were doing things to each other and Dray of course took the bait and did the worst thing. It was both of them, but we know Dray is the instigator and knows exactly what he is doing. No problem for me if he gets a gone one game.
