a value and effort by the dubs to get back into this one but it was too little too late as they dropped their fourth consecutive game losing to Phoenix 113 to 105 step did wake up in the second half scored 21 of his 23 in the second half including 15 in the third quarter but Phoenix is too much three-point shooting too much defense as they block nine Warriors Shots tonight and we’ll try to break down how the Warriors can get back on track here on Toyota Warriors postgame live with the Hall of Famer Chris Mullen NBA champion Fest is a I am Bon Hill really this game as fit said was lost in the first half that second quarter Phoenix just went crazy from the three-point line and they finished 14 to 21 from three and we’ll get to that in just a second but just a tough loss as the Warriors in clutch time this is their fifth straight clutch game they’re now five and five on the season B you go into a hole in the first half on the road against the Phoenix Suns you’re down 17 in the first half it’s really a hard thing to climb back from and you got to give the Warriors a lot of credit second half you hold the actually the third quarter you hold the Phoenix on the 19 point in the third quarter so that defense was working the offensive execution was there the making shots shots making they did not were not able to make shots not able to to really get the ball in the basket a lot of layups a lot of Miss layups so those things to talk about tonight but man you could talk about how you force KD to take 20 shots and he only had 21 points that’s a great plus right there but defensively the game was lost in the first half yeah first half they get down by 17 at halftime Phoenix makes 14 threes and I think the discouraging part was they were wide open threes created by dribble penetration so the on ball defense was not there in the first half uh in turn Fenix took full advantage of that played a much better second half and I don’t I wouldn’t really say this was a clutch game because I kind they did crawl back in it which was nice effort but Phoenix Suns had control of the game so the score was a little deceiving and I got to say I’m very surprised um The Warriors had 13 more field goal attempts I thought that would be a remedy for a win but they only shot 41% from the field so they got to get better quality shots and in turn be get back to that individual defense and not giving up the high quality especially three-point shot they got buried uh from the three-point line in the first half yeah block Shots by the Phoenix Suns nine block shots and the Warriors balance I stand corrected all right Bonte I said there wasn’t a lot of block shots that’s what I said but you didn’t expect igodo a guy who come off the bench of big to come into the game and really affected defensively they had nine block shots he really did a great job detering the guards and anybody from coming in there but I will say this the Warriors at the start of the season they played 12 13 guys this the conversation was always about how they could fly around they would never get tired and it just looks like they are one step behind especially to start the game tonight they just looked a little slow A little sluggish and there has to be a solution for that going down going down here at the stretch let’s get to the Suns three-point shooting Willie because as you mentioned 14 to 21 a lot of uncontested wideopen three-point shots that’s what the Phoenix Suns do Warriors have to do a much better job cuz controlling the ball controlling the dribbler so they don’t yield these wide open threes and when you do you got to run him off the three-point line make him shoot contested twos tyus Jones 19 points n assist we broke him down in the pregame show four or five for the three-point line the best friend of any big man is the point guard you know why because the point guard is the one that he can really break down defenses and when you do any other big man on Indi the team has to help and then you get easy layups if the point guard is a great passer Ty Jones tonight’s nine assists he was creating amazing plays he would have kickouts to him for wide open threes for himself and he would kick it to other guys to to Royce O’Neal you know Devin Booker was playing the point guard a position a few times tonight he did a great job himself nine assists so the point guard play tonight was really special they have guys that they they’re unselfish and they play really great basketball moving the ball that’s really a sneaky move for their Phoenix Suns we talked all last season how they needed a point guard where they have a true traditional point guard it looks like Phoenix could make that leap here bully yeah especially with with Kevin Durant uh dein book and Bradley Beal guys who you want to play off the basketball not having them handle the ball as much become catch and shoot players but coming in Bonte pregame we talked about maybe uh tyus Jones is the guy you take out and I would during the course of the game I was say I would I don’t mind him scoring because it’s less shots for Durant and Devin Booker problem is he got 19 points but with seven over his average and his nine assists anyway so you didn’t take anything away from him five three yeah and he’s hitting three-point shot he average is 11 points and seven assists on the season has one of the best assist to turnover ratios in NBA history all right does though they they claw back into this game they scored the first seven points in the third quarter things opened up in that third quarter I thought a great move by Steve just going to cavon Looney strictly to start setting some screens again Steph open you called that fezy set some screens you called that at half SCS bigs but also you know we talked a lot about in the pregame about Draymond coming into the game shooting this high percentage from the three-point line when he’s making shots you can’t key in on Steph Curry as much when he goes to set a ball screen on Steph and you let Draymond go then he makes you pay well tonight you couldn’t do that because he wasn’t hitting the shots at the clip that you were used to Draymond hitting the clips from and everybody guys were not making shots Andrew Wiggins was struggling from the field as well so with that the the floor gets Tighter and then Steph can’t operate like he needs to so finding ways to get other guys going is going to be important moving forward go ahead we talk a lot about when Jonathan kaminga checks in the game that he needs to attack the paint first and then you know shoot open threes I think the Warriors as a whole need to start the games really making a concertive effort to attack the paint that’s what Phoenix did to them do it right back make sure you you’re attacking that paint collapsing the defense so you getting high quality shots as I mentioned the Ro’s got 13 more field goal attempts but shot 41% what that tells me they’re not getting the high quality shots and you mentioned that in the OKC game where they got 14 more attempts of OKC but went one to 15 there in the fourth quarter all right the fourth quarter speaking of which it was a 89 83 game Phoenix was up six and it felt like the warriors were within striking thises and when you’re playing with a lead the those shots are a little bit easier so they had that cushion coming out of halftime even when the Warriors made their run even that tyus Jones shot there you know if it’s a onepoint game or a tie game that’s a different shot with a seven to npoint lead you’re feeling a little bit more confident about those looks that tie is Jo moving sneaky got every time we keep watching the Phoenix Huds he just keeps that team together he’s a solid piece for them all right moving forward here with Stephen Curry as he made his return after missing Wednesday night action against the Oklahoma City Thunder five field goal attempts for Steph Curry in a half is unacceptable um whether it be coaching or your teammates you got to get him more shots uh and I would start the game the way they start the second half pin down get him open first five possessions in Denver and then if he has the basketball give him a high screen a half court of Beyond in the back court to get him get him space get him open I mean is that what happens when someone goes down a guy goes down two guys actually in Bradley Beal and Yousef nkic for the Phoenix Suns and now you have guys playing out of their positions Grayson Allen is now a starter and you have uh Mason plumy starting igodo a guy who’s Off the Bench now gets some time to come into the game and he really affects the game defensively blocking shots I thought he had more block shots than what they gave him you know I’m always looking out for the bigs but I thought tus Jones was doing a great job he did a great job just being a facilitator that’s all you need when you have three great scorers on your team Kevin Durant Bradley Bill and you have Devon Booker on your team you have to be able to to move the ball and be able to get it to exactly where it needs to be know who’s hot I thought he did a great job of that he got Royce O’Neal going and key moments in the game I thought the bench for them did a great job the first half of the game they outscored the Golden State Warriors B 18 to 16 that’s them setting the tone and really they led into the end of the game where they they they took over as well I I just think a guy like igodo we mentioned you know about the Warriors maybe acquiring a big at the trade deadline to me the way the NBA’s played now with everyone spread out along the three-point line we see Phoenix made 143 so what do you you want the Warriors to run them off the three when you run them off the three you need someone in that backline defense to to block shots or at least to clog it up to make him pull up and shoot a contested too all right the Warriors they’ve lost four games in a row they’re now 12 and seven after a hot start a 10 to two start and they go to Denver and they’ll have a couple days off to get ready for Nico YoKids Jamal Murray the Denver Nuggets but the Panic meter needs to be busted out sack producer it’s out we’re not 20 games in yet 20 games in so am I panicking am I saying uh oh am I not tripping I’m going to say slightly concerned okay slightly concerned I’m not going say I’m not tripping but the loss of DeAnthony Melton a two he seemed to really keep that stting five together he was a final piece of that stting five so the two guard spot is a revolving door right now whether it’s Lindy Waters the third or Branda psky where’s kaming at off that bench I’m a little concerned you guys look at the schedule of December slightly might be uh by the end of December Minnesota Houston Denver I mean you name it they’ve got a treacherous path here the rest of the season you okay man I’m all right I’ll be all right I just need a day off for the you just may feel bad about the game tomorrow at least in Sunday Night Football right we could let me guys say that uh Fenix out 48 for from the floor 51% from the three-point line 31 assist they really had the ball hopping in the first half as well the Warriors kept their turnovers down but every time they turn it over it seems like Phoenix made a pay tonight we saw that against OKC gave up 16 points off those nine turnovers and the free throw shooting was better so there are some positives as you fail let’s hear from Steve Cur presented by BMW you know nine turnovers 28 assists um we didn’t make shots I mean we had we had some good looks and the ball didn’t go in but they were great I mean 18 for 35 from three um you know first half I thought our guys were actually um playing pretty solid defense rotating flying around and they but they spread you out and they did a great job of getting behind us a few times pulling in our Ro rotation guys and then um hitting threes behind the play and all those threes in the first half um obviously forced forced our hand a little bit we had to change our coverages but you know this is the modern NBA um threes go in like that it’s it’s tough to win you’ve even talked about that you know the 12 man 13 man rotation was always kind of destined to look different during struggles I mean on a night like tonight does it feel like you’re searching when you’re playing 13 men yeah I was searching uh the whole first half I played 14 I think um I play 14 in the first half eight 13 yeah 13 um in the first half I was searching um played everybody um and I just I didn’t love the uh you know the early part of the second quarter we didn’t have the juice and the energy you know Draymond talked about it in practice yesterday when when you’ve lost a few in a row you can’t count on making 20 2 threes and um winning a game with your offense you got to dig your way out of it and I didn’t think our energy and our juice was there our focus and uh so that’s why I kept moving people around and then second half we we found something and um obviously didn’t play Moses and Kyle and um so you know we’ve we’ve got to we’ve got to adapt and adjust um if if we’re if things aren’t working which obviously right now we’re in a little bit of a funk then um we’ve got a we got to think about the rotation and what we’re going to do with it but it’s um I like all these guys I I believe in all of them um but we have to do what’s right to help us win a game how did you think Steph looked tonight uh he got it going in the second half obviously he looked uh looked a little um a little slow in the first half like he wasn’t um moving like he normally does and then he got going in the second half and and looked fine but um had a little bit B of a slow start how much of of this is something you’re going to have to manage not only in the short term but long term throughout the course of the Season yeah I mean he’s he’s 36 you know this is all part of um you know getting older and you know managing his minutes his his body um and uh Rick and his staff are the the best in the world at what they do and um we’re we’re working together every day on this stuff and uh so we’ll uh you know we’ll figure it out when you are searching like playing 13 guys in the 14 minutes there’s like there’s not a lot of time for you to make decisions right so like what what are you look looking for I’m looking for force and energy and Juice I’m looking for guys who are talking on defense it was a it was a morg out there in the second quarter uh defensively it was uh I couldn’t hear anybody and so there has to be a collective force and competitiveness um if you’ve lost a few in a row especially but um I couldn’t hear anything uh there was just nothing and so we we made some changes and tried to get more more energy into the game is part of the concern with going so deep and guys having these like at times thin minutes certainly less minutes than they want to play that I don’t know they’re a little disconnected into you know coming into the game yeah I mean we talked about this at the beginning of the year when you’re winning everything’s great and it’s you know it’s like hey this is great we’re playing all these people everybody’s you know contributing soon as you lose it’s you’re going to have some guys pissed off I was I was in their shoes you know I used to be pissed off at my coach all the time when when he didn’t play me and that was most of my career actually so um this is how it is you know it’s like this it’s the NBA it’s a uh competitive um vicious league and uh you know four games ago we’re on top of the world and everybody’s happy now we’ve lost four in a row and everybody’s pissed and it’s all part of it when you say like as as you’re in this funk and you’re trying to get out of it and you have to considered rotation does that mean you have to think about shortening it yeah yeah we got to think about shortening it we got to think about uh uh the combinations we you know that we’ve been really looking uh carefully at the combinations uh that we play game to game um and we have a lot of options um and it’s that’s not always an easy thing uh when you sometimes you have too many options and you’re you’re trying to mix and match and you you’re trying to avoid playing certain guys together you’re trying to play other guys together um and so it gets harder when the more people you’re playing and U so yeah if we cut back we’ll you know um we’ll we’ll talk about that over the next couple of days and if we do then we do and you know things come back around for everybody during the course of the NBA season how do you feel about the movement just ball and movement on offense ball movement and also players moving around um actually I feel all right about it I thought um you know we’re we’re I think leading the league in passes per game um if not number one we’re number two uh during this losing streak where the ball’s moving um we took care of it tonight we had a few loose possessions but uh Ball’s got to go in you know and and uh you know it’s it’s tough to win when uh the other team makes 18 threes used to be when you made 14 you were going to win uh especially if you only had nine turnovers but again it’s a modern NBA doesn’t work that way anymore a few specific rotation things I wanted to ask you start pajami at the two I mean I guess what went into that uh we wanted to um get Brandon with that first group um we feel like he is best uh suited to be a secondary ball handler um playing off of Steph and Draymond because he’s so good attacking Closeouts um and uh you know Distributing the ball and um I liked how he looked out there tonight I thought he played really well um and then that brought Pat into the fold um you know a second game in a row where Pat’s really done a nice job of you know Distributing and keeping us in our flow and so it changed things around a little bit and then you started Looney in the second half is that do you you think that’s something you might do moving forward maybe it’s possibility um I just you know we we changed our defensive coverage and um so we decided to put Lon in there because he’s really good with that coverage and just wanted to change the look we were down 17 and we needed to to get a spark and Lon Lon gave us one that third quarter was was really good and then what did you think of kaminga game uh you know I guess prior to that late stint he had and then that late yeah he struggled most of the game and then the the late stretch uh you know he gave us a big spark and he’s one of the guys uh who we have to to um look at in terms of who he’s playing with and you know um can we get him more minutes with Steph and Draymond um you know he’s he’s better with those guys most guys are but um again we’ve got a lot of lot of things to think about and sort through coach KD had 20 had over 20 but um Beal was out tonight you got Grayson Allen with 17 points and tyers had 19 how difficult are the Suns to guard them when the others are really contributing yeah and they spread you out you know bud does a great job um of Designing his offense so that uh you they play out of the pocket a lot you know um you know plum is a good roller they can go their guard to guard screens where those guys are diving and then they always have couple of great three-point Shooters on the weak side and tonight they were hot so um it’s tough to tough to guard this is somewhat random but to start the fourth quarter there was that big stoppage for free throws review and then there was a challenge that was also another big stoppage this was like 3 minutes of game time in like 15 minutes does something like that change what you want to do for substitutions or anything think just because guys are getting more rest than they would have normally no no it doesn’t really change anything if the if the momentum is where we want it which it was you know going into the fourth I think we had cut it to seven if I’m not mistaken um then um you know we got our rotation where we wanted and I’ve never seen that play before you know the uh the uh the board said that we had three team fouls with that when JK fouled whoever it was uh late in the third but I’ve never seen a game where we go back and shoot two free throws bizarre but um Tony explained the rule and the rules the rule thanks what was the biggest difference defensively in the second half compared to the first you play with more force uh didn’t give up a bunch of as many straight line drives as we did in the first half what was the key to limiting those line straight line drive play with more Force J how good does it feel you had that uh that big block on uh KB I know you guys are like friends outside of this but you know how how does that feel kind of getting that uh big block on him it was second quarter I think that block put me in second all time in a Warriors block list so that’s cool do you think about that during the game hell no I didn’t know to somebody sent it to me I saw it after the game uh but no how would you um evaluate the matchup you were guarding Kevin for for much of the night and I don’t have it in front of me but I think he did not shoot very well yeah they beat us uh he did what he needed to do to win the game um so yeah you know this game wasn’t really build as me versus Kevin Warriors versus the Suns everyone what can you take away from that that closing stretch when you guys are able to make that push nothing nothing at all we proved ourselves what we knew before if something needed to be proved but nothing Dre you mind speaking about what was said maybe on the locker room I know it can’t be easy after like the losing streak like this Ty thing uh not much just challenge guys to play with force that we know it takes to win basketball games at this level when you’re in a bit of a rut it’s never going to be easy to win so you got to come with the necessary force that it takes to win or stay in the r what’s been keeping you guys from playing with Force I know got to figure it out though something that that both Draymond and Steve said was you know they want the team to play with more Force um do you agree with that and how do you get the team to play with more force uh definitely no that’s something that all year we talked about was being uh our identity was playing fast being Scrappy being physical uh you know playing with pace and uh we really good when we do that uh so we got to find a way to know do that for a whole game we have moments and spurts but uh we’re at our best we’re doing it for the whole game and uh so it just starts with our defense when we able to get stops and we able to push the ball get in transition uh that’s kind of sets the tone for our identity and I think today we uh know they got it going early we was kind of on our heels instead of having them on their heels what were some of the challenges that come with covering their their spread offense uh they put a lot of pressure uh on us in with their pick and roll with KD and book coming off uh they draw a lot of attention they was able to get in the pocket and uh their bigs was making the right plays and they was hitting their Shooters and they had kind of had us in scramble the whole first half uh when we was able to make a run we was able to know have them on the heels and uh you know determine our rotations and uh we did a better job in the second half but we got to do that the whole game you started the second half um at a halftime what was the message to you individually and to the team uh just no Steve to say we played a lot of people he just want to he was trying to find it uh he wanted some group that would go out there and know play with a lot of force play with energy uh I think everybody that got in the second half did that uh I know he my thing was just to go out there and just play hard and do what I what I do uh try to make plays you know get get our Shooters open try to create some extra possession with offensive rebounds and uh that’s what I tried to do you how you’ve made a career out of being you know always being ready regardless of you know how you’re being played or how many minutes um when you have a whole you know bench right now that kind of doesn’t know its rolles and everything like that I mean obviously this going to be a conversation when you’re struggling more than early in the year was about how deep you are but you know how difficult is it for all these guys off the bench to stay ready in a sense uh it can it can get difficult at times to find a rhythm and uh kind of not knowing what the expect from game to game uh but I think the guys our guys been doing a good job of staying ready um they everybody knows that they’re going to get in at some point uh you know I’ve been in the past where I didn’t think I was getting in and I just got thrown out there but I think this grou we know uh that we he was going to play all of us at some point you got to be ready at that time in in the game to make a know bring a spark and uh bring energy and make plays and I think for the most part we’ve been doing a good job of that uh just know when we’re losing you know you trying to find a reason while we lost and um get a little frustrating but I think the group is staying positive and I think everybody is taking advantage of their opportunities do you sense that it might be uh more difficult to keep things positive when things aren’t going as well on the court just in terms of the rotation and people not playing the kind of minutes that they want to uh definitely you know that’s just human nature uh I don’t think it’s just about the minutes just everything starts like you start questioning everything while we’re losing you got to look at yourself you looking at the the team te overall but uh I think like I said I think guys are staying positive we’ve been in most of these games we feel like we should have won most of these games and I think just a small thing in the details so we got to clean up and uh I don’t think it’s just the rotation so you know of course everybody wants to play more and they feel like they could have made an impact but uh know like I said everybody had a chance to get out there and we all had a chance to to change the game and we we all didn’t do that so we got to know look at it as a look at ourself first what details you think could be could be tightened up a little bit uh like I said we haven’t like our attention to detail on defensive end for the whole game is something that we got to uh lock in on I think you know first half we got kind of let them dictate how we was going to play and uh I think the defense we we wen’t able to get in transition and really establish our identity I think the second half we did a little bit better job of that uh it wasn’t perfect but I think we know still play with our our identity was Scrappy uh we played with more force and we got to know do that from the jump and put together two halves cool thank you what do you feel like was the issue um I mean 183s on 50% yeah how much of that did you feel like was breakdowns how much was that just Phoenix got hot uh say a lot of them in the first half were breakdowns um a lot of times we we were fine initially but our rotations weren’t like where they were supposed to be meeting the right guy didn’t rotate to the right person um so I mean they made us pay with that and time someone shoots 50% and make 18 you’re probably going to lose how does it you feel like this four game losing streaks kind of Landing locker room wise I mean you’re still 12 and seven um but you know for share losses U I think we’re fine uh just think it was the same when we were what 12 and three uh nothing’s changed um Everybody believes in each other coach believes in everybody um you need play everybody tonight that was suited up I think um so The Vibes are good I mean it’s uh definitely better than last year I would say uh but we’re not you know we’re not going to trip about it we’re just going to try to get better just in general how unique an experien this have been be a part of a 12 13 man rotation this season it’s fun uh anybody’s night can at any given point uh it could be someone else’s night uh it’s cool to see you know last game Pat come in make an impact on a two-way deal and um see the spark he gave us and so you just get to see those experiences kind of play out and then um you know could be somebody else night every night which is the cool thing about it you got a A few stops defensively against Durant is that a match up that you were looking forward to head oh yeah uh matching up with him book uh all guys have played against Team USA this summer um just wanted to kind of lock in on those guys um try to get a stop every time I think I did for the most part um but just trying to take that challenge one-on-one uh when we play these guys Steve knows that he can put me out there uh when they’re just trying to go ISO ball and so felt like I did a good job tonight he mentioned putting you in the starting lineup because he kind of wanted to get you in a more secondary playmaking role um how’ you I guess how first of all how’ you feel like back in that unit uh felt good um you know starting come off the bench uh just trying to be aggressive and assertive and I think I started the game out you know quick quick eight points and just wanted to to be aggressive and assertive and I think it helped um but yeah I feel fine I mean whatever role I’m in you got you got to feel fine you don’t have a choice cool all right Steve cerr you play with more force and M juice what does he mean by that F you played for Steve cerr won the championship with him what does he mean by when he says I need them to play with more Force SP juice and talk a little more on defense yeah you almost kind of have to like you have to be a self star cuz normally when you are you can ride the high of making shots but when you’re losing and you’ve lost a few games in a row you got to come in with a lot of energy you got to force your way into a win I thought the warriors were kind of waiting into the game before they got started second half they got some energy but it wasn’t enough and still Steve Cur saying I need to hear you I need to feel you defensively especially the first quarter the Phoenix Suns scored 35 points that’s not what I wanted to start the game I want you to start off with force and I want you to make your your your Effectiveness known from the start of the game yeah when when you’re when you’re in the losing streak everything becomes magnified um the margin of ever become smaller uh everything becomes um something that becomes emphasized and on the defensive end the first thing you have to do is talk even before you start getting into your defensive stance I got ball there’s a screen left screen right then it kind of is a chain reaction then all five guys are talking if no one’s talking I remember when Steve called our timeout obviously we’re not there but he said he couldn’t hear talking and that kind of set him off that you’re not into the game right so that’s the first thing offensively I think they’ll be fine they’ve been struggling I think getting quality shots um but defensively you know they were 10 and two I was amazed at the individual defense I thought that that was the biggest Improvement was containing the basketball not getting broken down and that’s kind of been their Achilles heel these last four games it feels like now the league is starting to attack that they’re starting to spread him out and just go one-on-one at guys and get them in get him into um uh rotations and without shot blockers that last guy has got the ability to shoot that three or drive right to the Lane and not feel deterred whatsoever how many times have we seen have we watched like teams that are really struggling other teams well struggling and you watch them at halftime or timeouts where nobody’s talking in a Timeout that’s the that’s those are the qualities that seep in where you’re not doing so well so Steve cerr is calling them out and saying no we’re not there we got to get that energy back up well you think that’s a change is Warriors are not the only team that’s that spreads teams out and plays motion and goes five a lot of League does that so now you’re not coming across half court and calling a play out these are all read and react plays so you have to talk now more than ever because the team’s not coming out calling a play where you can go oh one it’s a pin down or a flare screen they’re playing random basketball read react so to me it makes you have to talk even more so on the defensive end where is had 10 different starting lineups to start the season they called it the first five I like the first five but one guy who may be part of the first five in the future is Kavon Looney who did start the second half Kavon Looney came in the game and did exactly what he was supposed to do in just 16 minutes yeah you know he has nine points he has six rebounds these are the things that you want from him you want him to set great screens he’s got that his ability to get Steph open we showed that play at the start of the third quarter he him starting because they needed that veteran presence in the first half couple times tjd called for got call for a moving screen those are things that you need to be able to have those possessions when you’re when you’re trying to make a comeback into a game so kaval did a great job tonight but you need your bigs I thought he did a great job of countering uodo who was on the other team who was bringing a lot of energy on the defensive end for the Phoenix Sun yeah playing with Force communicating calling out defensive coverages early and often setting screens to get Steph open um and look I think we all know Steve Ker’s favorite starting lineup was with Draymond and cavon Looney and then three offensive players around them for that exact reason because you start the game off with Force energy getting step open and solid defensively and great rebounding so I wouldn’t be surprised if something like that happens but like you said Bonte you’ve been talking about the two guard position being like a rotating you know Shifting the loan yeah Shifting the lineups quite a bit that could be a way to stabilize it because now you talk you talk about it’s a veteran Championship core and depend no matter if it’s Steph Wiggins and whoever the other guy is you’re being led by four Champions I will say this to to really he’s been trying to find a solution Steve Kerr he’s been trying to find that what combination is going to work I will say this the bench has really been the the the numbers for the bench for the Warriors has been declining over the last couple weeks so with that maybe Kavon Looney coming to the start and tjd as the athletic big coming down being able to set screens for Buddy Hill maybe that’s the change that you need for the bench so Steve Cur is going to continue to try to find different combinations yeah Moody make it another crack he only played three minutes tonight and a lot of people were climing for more minutes he had a great first half against that’s and then attempted just one field goal in the second half of that game on Monday
