Warriors blow out the Grizzlies without Steph or Wiggs... getting a crucial win in a rivalry game on Christmas.. and ESPN decides a missed dunk by Ja is the play that deserves the most hype? this tells you a lot about the NBA as a league.. and a product..

Warriors go to the All-Star break at 42-17 puts them on a 58-win pace, and the 2 seed out West. Better than i expected this summer, but a little disappointing after such a hot start.. right? Health is clearly the top priority, but time to re-integrate Dray and JW is also key!

lot of people rightfully pointing out how Steph could chop up the Celtics D and get Dray involved, if they blitz Steph. but it's also not easy for an elite D to change its principles in 2-day walk-throughs. blitzing Steph 28-feet out is not the same as trapping KD at the elbow.

ain't no way you bring GP2 out wearing a Warriors hoodie -- sit him next to the front office guys during a national TV game.. and then cancel this trade... . don't have to wait till tomorrow.. Gary is staying, 100%... good luck in Detroit big Wise...

LeBron is highly skilled, but he's spent so much of his on-court life being quicker, stronger and bigger than everyone.. Never been forced to refine the nuance of his game without those advantages. LeBron has very few go-to moves, and looks mortal when the genetic gap shrinks.

Kerr's always known this. but if he played JoKu first, or had them share time -- the JK/Wise/Lacob issue lingers all season. giving Wise a legit chance to fail first.. expose his lack of readiness. now allows Kerr to pivot to JK, give him all the mins. Joe's guy had his shot.

@warriorsworld one of my favorite things about this play... GP2 didn't complain at all... after the play, he came over and patted Eubanks on the butt.. told him it was good defense... dude is all about competing...

this was my favorite play of the night -- and it really says a lot about how Kuminga is growing... his energy and attention to detail is a constant... now. denied on his first attack.. JoKu stays with the play, and dunks on an MVP candidate's head..

not only was KD 100% leaving. people still don't realize KD was *totally* in the wrong when it came to that play. KD was screaming at Dray, asking for a backwards pass -- in LAC's paint -- with 4 secs left. . which is beyond stupid! KD *still* doesn't realize that FACT..

If this didn’t happen does @KDTrey5 stay a Warrior? They win 2 more at least, I can’t be convinced otherwise.

@jadande I was tense, the exchange wasn't, and neither was he. Felt like the defense attorney was trying to create a 'tense exchange' -- to demonstrate why the cops may have been distracted by an 'angry black man'. But Mr. Williams was amazing, handled this with such poise. Kudos.

Klay on how Kerr changed the offense, @NBAonTNT . "Coach Kerr came in emphasizing ball movement.. 'Keeping that thing Hot!'.. Like Barcelona and their Tiki-Taka possession game." . Klay, Kerr, ball movement, Barca, futbol, Iniesta... and a win on Ring Night. My heart is full!
