What I don’t understand is why everyone is mad about Klay being in last night. Klay had a pretty good game and with Draymond back, they could’ve gone small and have Moody in with the starters minus Looney (who did not have a great game last night and sold at the line too late)
It's just all so tiresome given the recent Ls and seeing Moody keeping us in the game that we were up 24 and then is subbed off. We then proceed to collapse in the most hilarious fashion, you could only laugh at the ending.
It's just tiresome m8
Draymond should’ve been sat down to close that game, he gave it away.
Klay was bad in the second half, but I do agree Moody should’ve stayed instead of Looney last night
A lot of us were mad because Klay had cooled off and started to miss shots/make mistakes and Kerr was bringing in wiggins for defense so you can't have Steph, Moody, Klay out there in crunch time, but benching a higher energy player who is red hot in a moment like that probably did them in.
Moody is not some proven player and there's a decent chance he would've missed his next two shots or something, but it's still a decision you typically just don't make in those situations unless you have some prime all star instead of Klay.
Not to mention a huge confidence hit to the young guys. Kuminga got no run last year, podz got 0 minutes this game, then you have Moody playing good D and hitting every shot and he still gets taken out? I'd feel pretty defeated knowing that's my future on this team.
And people wonder why wiseman didn't develop. Just shitty coaching and privilege culture.
Wiseman is another symptom of this but let’s be real - he’s not going to develop in any situation.
Facts bro.
You start to realize theres huge leash for the guys with tenure and a lot of shit gets looked over and it can kill your drive when you don’t get the benefit as the next man up when they aren’t even performing.
