#Warriors-Blazers: Klay vs Lillard! Kuminga! Dray! Live chat, commentary, analysis, 2nd screen, PVO!
119#GoldenStateWarriors #KlayThompson (this is not an illegal stream and we will not post highlights, as we do not want to be taken down! But if you need help with a stream, ask someone in the comments)
TOPICS & TIMESTAMPS:
(To be filled in as we go. Note that timestamps are not functional on livestreams until the livestream is overwith.)
9:00 9min31 Q1 wonder what Matisse Thybulle's corner 3 stats are
12:30 7min32 Jonathan Kuminga checks in for Kevon Looney
16:45 6min40 JK doubled Dame Lillard but he still hit a 3
20:30 5min33 Klay Thompson playing zone, JK or Jordan Poole not in the right spot
21:45 4min54 JK nice POA attack but we will miss layups by JK and Klay
23:30 4min03 Ty Jerome calls shaky hand play but ends up Klay shooting a 3 late
24:00 29-18 Lillard on fire 3min10 JK misses, throws his body into Dame expecting a call, I used to do that as a young player, too
33:15 at least good player development reps for JP in the Steph Curry role, basically
36:00 11min33 Q2 nice ball movement Donte to Dray to JP
38:15 9min54 Lamb draws a box out foul on Drew Eubanks
39:00 9min40 Jerami Grant out of bounds on the Donte airball, credit Lamb for the hustle
42:15 good thing with Draymond's wrist is that it's not the shooting hand, makes FT 7min53
44:30 Klay bad post-up on Dame 7min00
49:00 6min22 JK did not post up Dame properly, Donte turnover leads to a reach-in on Grant
51:00 5min40 JK not the best at rotation, Klay points but JK is late to Eubanks
54:45 4min15 Klay bad turnover, tough for a complementary player
1:03:00 1min09 good baseline inbound JP to Donte
1:06:15 analyzing Dame's gravity from early in the game
1:14:45 how can we defend Dame? 1) he can't be making 3s, 2) Donte can stay in front, 3) we could try a box-and-1, Lillard is a Top-100 player, so without Wiggs or Steph to execute defensive game plan. An 11-year vet against a squad of five that has a 2nd-year and 4th-year player? Tough odds. It almost hurts us that Anfernee Simons (4th year, will make mistakes) is out because then now you got Dame usage rate the whole game, 4) wear him out, 5) maybe stick Dray on him
1:22:45 10min09 Q3 good job by JP getting downhill in transition
1:24:00 9min34 Donte loses Dame POA
1:25:30 8min21 box-and-1 works! (daimond-and-1)
1:26:15 7min43 turnover JP to Klay, Klay trying to stay positive
1:27:00 7min02 Loon finishing is gorgeous
1:32:30 6min30 Dame box-and-1 turnover, JP attacks Dame which is good to wear him down
1:33:30 5min44 Dray looks a tad bit off but that's to be expected
1:34:00 5min30 JP 3 even though Donte and Klay went to the same spot to make it not open for Dray
1:34:45 5min08 forgot to mention one way to beat Dame is to attack Dame, I'm sure that was in the game plan for JP to execute, so is JP gonna get some freakin' credit? 4th year guy taking a future HoFer to the rack
1:38:45 Dame guards Lamb with four fouls and we call a pick and roll to get Klay on Dame
1:40:00 JK with the steal of Dame but he needs to set the screen for Klay better
1:42:00 2min39 JK smash, credit Lamb for clearing the oreb for Jerome
1:42:30 2min09 good below-the-rim fundamental move by Klay
1:43:00 1min45 credit Lamb for the great screen for Klay
1:44:45 0min33 Kerr asks to challenge the high-five, they don't
1:46:00 0min23 tiki-taka Jerome to Dray
1:53:45 4 fouls on Dray he can handle, apparently 10min50 Q4 (should've been a charge)
1:54:30 10min20 box-and-1 working again, good close out by JK
1:55:45 after Shaedon Sharpe smash (understandable), 9min24 Lamb jump ball among 3 Blazers
1:57:00 Dray got Mousa Dagher ref to nod on something (after the post-up turnover) 8min56
1:58:00 Steven King: "Epic box-and-1", I think we stay with it unless they score 2x in a row not named Lillard
2:00:00 8min22 will Lamb get credit for the steal
2:00:45 7min53 great seal by Dray, great delivery by Donte, great cut by Lamb
2:03:00 on still needing a big man or Nerlens Noel: Aren't we proving right now that we don't need Noel? How long would it take for Noel to get comfortable playing with HoFers, let alone Kerr read-and-react (and set good screens, tiki-taka)? Noel wouldn't even be in the game rn (Looney isn't). @Kwaku Barnie So it's Lamb or big insurance policy. I'll take Lamb because we go small anyways, make their big (Eubanks or whoever) run with us, always done it w Dray
2:07:00 5min40 Lamb spin on Eubanks epitomizes why we don't need a big, plus Looney just came in so Noel wouldn't be playing now anyways (unless Loon got hurt)
2:09:00 4min23 Klay calms down JK on the call
2:10:00 3min50 Klay calls off Lamb screen to take Eubanks which he converts
2:12:00 3min23 Billups waves white flag (Dame 35 mins)
2:14:15 2min08 Lamb to JK smash tiki-taka another reason to keep Lamb
2:47:15 Noel knows better than casuals that he's not needed on GSW LOL, so he's gonna go make vet min with probably 5 mpg behind Looney
