#Warriors fans watch Team USA (Kerr!) also Lester Quinones (Dominican Republic): commentary/chat/PVO
[https://www.courtside1891.basketball/game/91054] ... Suggestion if you're able to stream the game and watch this commentary on mobile: 1) have two different browser apps available, 2) put the game on one browser on your main app and put me on your YouTube app in the background (or vice-versa) so you can see hear me do pbp and go back to the Comments. #LesterQuinones #GoldenStateWarriors\n\nTOPICS & TIMESTAMPS:\n(to be filled in as we go, timestamps are not available until after the stream has ended)\n0:00 joined late, Brazil down by 19 with about 8 mins to go, Gui Santos on the bench
3:00 Bruno Caboclo should be in the NBA after watching him vs Canada
4:30 Gui Santos subbed in with 7m00 Q4 to go
6m15 Q4 Gui corner 3 on the catch and shoot
6:15 on whether the Warriors "need to sign a big man", refer to the Tim Kawakami tweet: "The absolute worst thing you could do for a team that has Curry and Draymond is to bog them down with plodding big men. I think you've seen evidence of this recently? But many GSW Fans just want to see the '90s Knicks duplicated, I guess." https://twitter.com/timkawakami/status/1697655263069868376
13 more minutes about depth chart, Draymond small-ball 5 since 2014, on "need a big man" myth (also: Trayce Jackson-Davis!)
1m35 Gui beautiful Euro finish
20:30 Harry Giles signed by Brooklyn, two other teams interested, so you never know? Commenter: "we don't know what kind of conversations are going on behind closed doors. The FO may very well be doing their utmost to get some quality size on the roster." It does all come down to trusting the front office for those 12th through 15th slots
35:00 all the fans forget about TJD. Do we want a 5 to disrupt his development?
36:00 on Saric replacing JaMychal Green, JaVale vs TJD — UPDATE: McGee will have a veteran’s minimum with SAC
39:00 Lester Quinones only plays 3 and sometimes the 2 for the DR (evolved since the first game this summer vs Memphis when they didn't have KAT), Mendoza plays the 1 and Andres Feliz is at the 2 and plays like Baby Dumars
42:00 it's not a fair comparison to say Quinones is struggling, he's playing out of position in terms of the Warriors but it's exciting that he'll be learning from Chris Paul. I do expect Les to be with GSW most of the year a la Chiozza, Les is like a more athletic Andre Miller, but also him not hitting threes affects his mental as is the case with most young players
55:00 got into DR vs Serbia a little late, Quinones started and has missed a 3
7m00 late closeout by Les on Bogdan
4m55 Bogdan backdoor in transition vs Les
4m48 Les arguing with Delgado on the bench (you won't see that on GSW though). Les subbed out after the timeout
1:14:15 we might not see Quinones again, when he screws up bad, Coach Garcia sometimes puts him in the dog house, which I actually agree with at times
8m00 Q2 Lester back in for Solano
7m25 airball runner
6m40 Les taken on pick and roll, turned corner
6m25 drive and kick to a 3
5m35 late call but blocking foul vs Stefan Jovic drive
1:24:00 looking at S.Jovic's wiki
4m00 gets loose ball on steal by Feliz
3m33 Bogdan reverse oreb vs Les
3m22 Les good drive vs Bogdan to Montero, fouled, Les taken out at the FT (always gets penalized for mistakes)
1m46 KAT subs out and discusses frustrations with Les
2:14:15 hafltime adjustment: I would start Haliburton but also Cam Johnson
2:19:30 on Klay in China and our playlist for that: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLszalip37vKKuQEGWKLRcKHWySckR-7Kw ...we have about 30+ mins of more Klay video esp him visiting Pacquiao
2:22:00 we have footage of Steph Curry at Chris Strachan's wedding (@COSeezy) in the pipeline
2:51:15 LTU has more orebs (18) than USA drebs (14)
2:52:30 LTU working Reaves in the post
3:06:15 based on this game, with the lack of off-ball movement by USA, we're gonna need Steph and Klay for the Olympics, which then gets into Klay with the Bahamas
3:08:45 USA just qualified for Olympics with the DR losing to Serbia
3:12:30 I think Klay would pick USA over Bahamas only if he has a significant role with USA
3:32:00 checking out Canada-Spain
3:42:00 looking up Santi Aldama stats vs GSW for MEM last season (near double-digit scoring average in four games)
3:53:15 Spain's head coach got the Pat Riley hairdo
4:01:00 USA will play Italy next, who does not have Nico Mannion
4:07:30 Shai gorgeous between-the-legs crossover similar to Paul George's behind-the-backs
4:21:45 I wonder how we defend OKC, Wiggins on Shai but there's also Giddey at 6'8 -- they're gonna be a problem
\nNext livestream: Team USA (Steve Kerr!) game sometime in the next week, TBD.
