Gee. I wonder what Malik means in Arabic?

Actually with how his name is pronounced it means owner not king, the king in arabic is pronounced "məlek" not "malik"

And he owns the warriors so it's fair

Klay was responsible for both these turnovers.

[–] shazam482@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

How's he responsible for the first one?

[–] nuggs_analysis@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

He should have come back to get the ball

It’s always extra nice when Green techs lead to meltdowns.

Not really sure why Curry picked up his dribble there. Wonder what he saw/couldn't see.

[–] Paschalls_Law@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Probably saw Klay have an entire quarter of the court open to get him the ball quickly. Threw it a bit short of where Klay was (hence Monk having to reach down for it) assuming that a 10 year NBA vet knows to come towards the ball on a pass… alas

Still don’t think he should’ve picked it up, but it was a very reasonable pass.

Steph was doubled in the back court. He is used to double teams and usually responds by extending the dribble laterally and finding the open man for a pass. However, they hadn't gotten the ball past half court and he didn't want to incur the 8 second violation. Hence he picked up the dribble and made the pass to Klay.

Idk why but this was a very NFL type moment lol. Curry basically got picked off

thanks Kings, that felt GOOD.

If the first play was done by Dray instead of Curry I'm sure his name will be mentioned A LOT in the title and the thread.

I like watching teams clown the Warriors. I’m petty like that.
