It was weird. It was a lifeless crowd, but then some fans in section 214, 215 started chants in the 4th. And the team was getting back in the game and it snowballed from there. By the end of the game, the crowd was really excited and having fun.

Warriors/Grizzlies game? Many of my seat neighbors left at the end of the 3rd quarter, but some of them regretted it...

I will miss Buddy, especially his smile...

I hope he's just in a Klay slump. He doesn't rely on his shooting as much as Klay---but maybe he can reduce his turnovers by handling the ball less (and remain playable--or return to playable???).

So a different issue: has Dray become the new Klay (as, not being good enough to start anymore?)?

Dray had 7 turnovers tonight. Was that possibly a team high for the season?

It was more like "let's not let Richard have his first career foul-out" instead...

That's an issue, but 28% 3pt shooting is not going to cut it as well.

I blew back someone's comment last week about a dead crowd at Chase, but tonight's crowd is quiet. The lack of talent on the court has broken them... it's pathetic when Pat Spencer is your best player on the court...

What really happened is that the team abandoned SF, but kept the label despite having nothing to do with the city.

That's why Niner jerseys are rarely worn by sports fans here.

It's an illegitimate label.

American Idiot! What a relevant song!!!

What happened to Green Day's performance? I wonder if there's an alternative channel to find it?

I certainly would rather see them do a song than to continue to see homophobe Tony Dungy on the pregame show.

Can't wait to see Bad Bunny, tho...

The Pacers Fan idea of freezing the lottery rankings earlier is a great suggestion!

Sorry, but shortening the season just takes away needed revenue from the players, employees, and nearby businesses. They really shouldn't do that.... but scheduling does need to reduce the back-to-backs....

I moved to SF from Boston. It was a great decision. Boston is a city with limited nightlife, cold weather, and huge impoverished sections (Roxbury being the worst).

I saw DaveAgainst... complain about the Tenderloin. There are no cities in this country with smaller and fewer patches of poverty (SF has the Tenderloin and BayView). In most cities, the poorer areas are more than 3 times as big and more numerous.
Poverty sucks, but it's hardly a bigger issue here.

At least the NBA doesn't allow a single team to buy all of the best players in the sport...

I miss subscribing to WaPo. Very good writing for a long time.

I learned a lot from their writers. Too bad that was destroyed by the owner...

Also worth mentioning: EVs are much cheaper to maintain. And they don't use gasoline (so maybe some oil will be left on this planet for future generations???).

The US should have banned the sale of any new gasoline-powered cars years ago...

American technology with autos is way out of date. Tesla are producing old EV cars. GM and Ford gave up on cheap EVs.

The world has moved on. We're old sh*t. Thank you, Trumpers and other fools...

Most NBA players are playing 20 minutes a game (or less). I'd be thrilled if he averaged that with the Dubs (though it seems unlikely).

We needed some size, and we got a monster. That's pretty slick.

I've been critical of MDJ, but this has the potential to be a great move. Didn't give up much, finally got a big, may have rescued a season stuck in a terrible trend.

OK, let's see where this takes the Dubs....! Can we get to 6th by season's end?

Or do they use Leon or Cryer for a 15th spot? I like Cryer's fast offense (and he's more athletic than Spencer, too).

So, weirdness happened with that trade today. Horford got reunited with Porzingis, which could be a very pleasant surprise....

05.02.2026 06:02 β€” πŸ‘ 2    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

An amazing fit for the Dubs. Horford, big P, Green in the middle of the court should be much better. Porzingis does prefer the outside game, but will he give us any courttime?

Finally some decent size on the roster....

Yeah, honesty is one of the principal adjectives that come to me when thinking about Trump.... /S

I believe JK has a 2 year contract, team option on the 2nd year.

Given the Warriors' struggle to put together any sort of roster, they'd probably take that 2nd year...

I "get" your statement. If the Warriors decide to fold on this season, Al should be freed...

I would prefer that the NBA players union would refuse to perform in Utah.

Time to stop putting up with this insanity....
