GPII is so valuable. Love his hustle and attitude. Dude plays like he's 6'9. Lol I was so bummed when we didn't resign him because he was so important last year.

so glad we got him back. I felt like he's been underplayed but tonight he was used perfectly.

His 6'7" wingspan gives him that type of impact. It's amazing the guys he's able to play above and over, who are much taller than him.

Love watching Dray miss free throws. He gets so mad but seems to not realize he sucks at basketball.

Anyone who thinks Draymond sucks at basketball is telling on themselves that they are a casual.
Disregard anything Reign writes about basketball obviously. There isnt anyone who knows the game that would say that Draymond sucks at basketball

LOL at watching a guy go +13 and keying in on one missed free throw.

Draymond put on masterclass on offense and defense Last night, a lot of fans don't recognize what he does on defense. They know he's good but don't know what he does on the floor that makes him so special, not including his ridiculously awesome playmaking ability for others.

dray had a great overall game

I didn't know he had that kind of wingspan, incredible. I love the way he plays the game, it's perfect for this system/team.

he's also so dependable. He rarely doesn't provide quality minutes, especially in the playoffs. Usually bench players can be a little timid in the playoffs, especially the inexperienced ones, but this guy doesn't play that nonsense.

he's also excellent at making layups. Lol he seems to always get a couple nice ones in his few minutes

So I know we are all flying high from last night, but I think a conversation needs to be had about Donte Divincenzo. If not for Kuminga, he would easily be the worst player in the series for us. But he is actually getting decent minutes, so its been worse than Kuminga. Is it time to play Moody over him, or just hope he turns it around at home?

He has really struggled this series, especially on the road. Not sure what the issue is. Love his hustle and tenacity, but he seems so hesitant to shoot, even if he's wide open. The dunk last night was nice, as was the moonshot finger roll in game 3.

Hes getting cooked defensively too. I like his hustle too but he is getting blown by with ease almost every possession. Hopefully the home crowd gets his shooting confidence going.

I like moody a lot, I think his play during his minutes have been really solid. Donte hasn't been playing too well, I agree, I wonder if we see a decrease in his minutes.

i could see Kerr giving Donte another chance here at home but might play Moody more and see how it goes.

why do you think that is.. is it match ups?

not really worried about it though.. never know he could turn it around next home game

Let's finish this series first lol

a 5pm start means no or dead crowd, plus a desperate kings team.

I hope someone else can light it up offensively, Curry looked a bit tired down the stretch

No or dead crowd? The whole Bay Area will be up all night waiting for this game. You think people are going to be shy, because it's a day game? It's Dub Nation, brother. No matter where or when they show up in mass.

only reason last night wasn't a blow out

So Barnes and his 13 points were the reason it wasnt a blowout? Not sure I follow.

It depends when the 13 points came.
