Warriors State of The Union

The tldw - a vote in a poll is worth just as much as a like in a video, despite being way easier to get. A user who votes, likes, and comments in a poll is worth 8 times a regular like, and yt will show you to 8 times as many regular people. Maybe put up polls asking obvious stuff, like who you got in the upcoming game or who you’d draft 5th or something. Or maybe put up fun polls - if you come up with 3 or more mean nicknames for a player, maybe put em in a poll.

Stanford had Claude Terry shooting jump shot free throws in the 70's as well.

Russ

There's already Golden State of Mind

Nathan Glanzer

Missed the opportunity to call it the “Golden State of the Union” there 😂😂

Bro cut his hair! Damn man the Afro was looking sharp my boy!

All the reporter questions for Steph concerned Oubre. Hard to read his expression. His answers were.......subdued. Is that because he wants to be a mature team leader or because he secretly detests Kelly? .....Are there any big men out there to be had?

Jerry Heverly

its gonna be interesting to see how the dubs figure out how to win enough but not get into the playoffs

El_Remolino

looking forward to the new podcast!

Keith Waters

Yeah agree I realise the Mavs needed to at least attempt to get better on the defensive end but I'm not sure giving up Seth was the answer unless he had made it clear he was leaving anyway.

Alasdair Macdonald

Thanks man! I got to get way better at that type a stuff..

Athletic Alchemy

Everyone would be better with Seth

I'm here for the hot takes

Mavs were much better last year with Seth

Very keen to see Alc's next video after the Mavs game. They played well considering how short handed they were. Mavs defence has improved but is still bad. Would love for him to prove me wrong but this career game for Oubre I think will be a massive aberration but it has the potential to look past his faults and make ultimately the wrong long term decision. They might well hold off on any long term decisions about him to half way through the season. I remain of the opinion that regardless of his play and the fire he brings we can't hold on to him long term so better to get what we can for him. Ideally flip him into a player that can fill a similar role but one that we'll have for 2-3 seasons at least.

Alasdair Macdonald

There actually was an NBA who shot all his free throws with a jump shot he played for San Diego in the 70's .....Toby Kimball

Steven Stanley

I think with Oubre it just needs to be a less is more type of thing. Start Damion, or when Wiseman is back start JTA and bring Oubre off the bench. Let him be a bit of a focal point for the 17-20 minutes he'll play off the bench.

Btw alc, I don’t know if you saw, but there’s a bunch of news this week about how the YouTube Algorithm is broken, esp wrt community posts and polls. A poll will drive up your engagement score way more than a video watched all the way through. https://youtu.be/Ej0Kijd4_4Q Don’t know if it’s still that way, but it’s something to consider.

Kenneth

Should Eric P just go the other way, and start jump shooting with that weird leg kick when he attempts his free throws?

Kenneth

I feel like less Oubre means more Wiggs and Wiseman. I'm excited to see that more. Oubre still force to shot after he drives and surrounded by guys. Kerr needs to tell him just lay it in. I can't think of any other guys missing dunks this much.

Ryosuke Kimura

Good content here. I like the shout out to Two Way Wiggs and Steph. They have both been the bright spot (outside of Wiseman's potential). I think by the midway point some decisions will need to be made about how hard they want to go just to get smashed in the playoffs, but I still think it's worth getting to the playoffs. Having Wiseman and Wiggins get playoff reps with Steph, even if it's just 5-7 games in a first round exit, will be important experience for next year when Klay is back and the expectation is to start contending.

Steve

Mavs are going to destroy us today, with both Wiseman and Looney out, and Pascall day-to-day.. I mean, Dray against Boban? :D

Ivan (Vanya) Kashperuk

Right we’ve seen enough.. now watch him hit 5 3s tonight. I cant tell you how many times I’ve matched up with a big HS kid and thought this kid is about to be a load. To find out they just don’t have any balance or real core strength yet.

Athletic Alchemy

Mulder had his chance his spot would be better served by another big.

Steven Stanley

Trying to solve all our problems at once I see! At first glance it seems lob sided, but Sac may be intrigued with Smiley given their affinity for foreign players. I think the Cavs think they can make the playoffs, not sure there are min for brad..but then again how many are there for JaVale? I think the 1 part that is over ambitious is throwing Hart in ..

Athletic Alchemy

Wiseman always goes for the 2 hand lob catch and dunk....Chriss has a lot of 1 handed lob dunks.....Chriss is the model and should be the tutor. Wiseman needs a more mature body but that will come.

Steven Stanley

It was getting unruly! ... Yeah I dont see SVG jumping for joy at the thought of Oubre..but who knows, maybe he sees his Pietrus 2.0! Kinda similar knuckleheads.. tho MP was a better shooter.

Athletic Alchemy

https://tradenba.com/trades/HJlfW1qYf Can I get some feedback on this trade proposal?

thanks !

Athletic Alchemy

Alc with the fresh cut! Getting lonzo would be great, but for some reason, I don’t see that happening...

Paul Byun

Great analysis as always!

Strong Foru

Thats a fair point about Loon.. but Boston also just started cold

Athletic Alchemy

You don't have to stop commenting on him.. but Im not sure what you are looking for.. he has been objectively bad!

Athletic Alchemy

I'll stop commenting on Oubre. Here is the article if you wanna read. I am out Joe https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/kelly-oubre-jr-lays-another-egg-for-warriors-who-have-few-alternatives-and-no-margin-for-error/amp/

If they go 0-4 on the road trip, it's over. Shame, because I think this is the best Steph has ever been. Also, about Loon, we were thoroughly DOMINATING the Celtics with him in there....team looked great.
