Posting to bookmark. I have actually had fun watching this nets team through a weird opening to the season. I'm surprised they're at .500 but they aren't going to keep it. Bridges has had some spectacular performances, pretty much single handedly ran the floor during that OT against Atlanta which was dope.

Looking over their last 5 they were really only 3 points away from a 5 game streak. Maybe they will make the play-in games after all

lmao at putting Draymond in the weak side corner for the final possession of the game. That's really how you drew it up Kerr?

Glad the Wolves could pull off the W tonight despite looking pretty cruddy. Credit for Charlotte for showing up, but mentally this Wolves team is so much better than they were the past few years (ever).

Is “19 year old wants to gently caress 17 year old” really that scandalous?

Sports league disciplinary committees and leaders tend to be older dudes who probably aren't interested in listening to DEI officers or ethics & compliance, so I can imagine league office conversations about the Giddey matter having some of this.

Looking up "NBA disciplinary committee" brings up the Nigerian Bar Association and articles about their "baddie" lawyer, though

The Wolves got a combined 77 points from the Triple Towers in today's win, which I think is pretty cool.

When Chet hit that 3 to tie the game the other week the announcers were saying “he might’ve been touching the line!” As the replay showed he was like two feet behind it

I honestly expect all the team announcers to be wild homers and am always surprised at how reasonable some of them are.

I expect them to be homers but I also expect them to appreciate beautiful basketball and acknowledge the reality people are watching at home. The warriors guys live inside an alternate universe.

Guess Dray was actually wronged. They don't let you play defense anymore.

I mean, they’re not wrong. Draymond tackling the dude is clearly unreasonable, but it happens after like five seconds of the guy staggering around the court trying to defend the ball. Blow the whistle and either call a travel or a jump.

Ok, good to know I'm not crazy. Hometown announcers have the job of being a homer for their team, but I swear to god anytime I watch a Warriors game on league pass the color commentator just yells fowl on the opposing team every play.
