@CurCarry @AndyKHLiu @warriorsworld Didn’t you just prompt grok in an even more heavy handed way?

@AndyKHLiu @warriorsworld Godawful prompt, means nothing x.com/i/grok/share/9…

Needed this when the Warriors were on the board in 2020 and 2021. Sigh….

@WorldWideWob Vegetables are at least good for you. There’s no upside here

*Another* Stephless Warriors national TV game.

@adamasenko @daveweigel This is the voice they use for the challengers in iron chef

@jjmaples55 @damanr Ime should be getting some shade too

I just remember an argument about leadership not mattering

@BaseballJeff1 @AndyKHLiu If he kept stacking rings the haters would have eventually bent the knee but he couldn’t see it

@AndyKHLiu I know he wanted to go and win a title on his own, but I just never really understood his decision to leave. He might have 2 more championships to his name at this point.

shoulda stayed and won 3 more smh

@JamCristopher @TommyGunnNBA And obviously lots of people in this thread think otherwise but no one is paying millions of dollars to any of you to coach nba games for a reason

@JamCristopher @TommyGunnNBA You can tell what other teams actually thing based on the coverages they throw at players and the “Steph Rules” are more extreme than what any other player gets

Because Steph curry is better than Kevin Durant at basketball and it’s okay to admit it it’s not a knock steph curry is probably a top 5 player ever its a shame ppl don’t get it

@3YearLetterman @Parisianaes1 We got the rose bowl!

@BenHowardOPT @NateDuncanNBA I don’t like dort and I agree that Jokic is a flopper

@ChiefMeesh @NateDuncanNBA Fair. I also don’t think Lu actually tripped Jokic. His foot never touched him. Is it a foul? Yes. Did Jokic sell it? 1000%

Catching up on Thunder/Nuggets: loved the flagrant 2 ejection on Dort. Just a totally unnecessary play.

@BenHowardOPT @NateDuncanNBA Both things can be bad. This is not a counterpoint

@NateDuncanNBA What about the punch Jokic threw? That was necessary?

@GideonTownsend @dieter @AndyKHLiu Great Thai food. Viet food not very good. Ditto for Mexican food. I used it live there and loved it for a billion different cuisines but those two things are hard to get good versions of.

@dieter @AndyKHLiu I just looked it up on AI: “NYC has a strong reputation for excellent Southeast Asian food, particularly for authentic Thai, Vietnamese, and specialized regional dishes, with high-quality options frequently cited in Queens and Brooklyn.”

SF might not be LA or NY in terms of food but you don’t know what you got til you are in the rest of the other states in this country lol jfc

A truly special interview with Jack Hughes, Quinn Hughes and Connor Hellebuyck. Beers in hand. Quinn shouting out the troops. The game MVP standing like a statue. Dylan Larkin video bomb. Hockey.

@JeremiahDJohns That’s the problem with the doctrine. No limiting principle, just vibes!

I'm no legal scholar, but I'm pretty sure the practical translation of this passage from Gorsuch is "every justice other than me and Roberts is either a hypocrite or insane"

@GoldNickleDime @checktherhyme1_ @TheDunkCentral @anthonyVslater Sure it does. What if Kerr developed them into better players in a way that was not reflected in their personal counting stats but was reflected in wins (winning the game/championship is the point of basketball)

@ChiefMeesh @checktherhyme1_ @TheDunkCentral @anthonyVslater That has literally nothing to do this conversation

Steve Kerr reportedly wanted to develop Jonathan Kuminga into a Shawn Marion/Aaron Gordon type, but Kuminga viewed himself as a future All-Star and wanted more on-ball opportunities, per @anthonyVslater “Kuminga's career developed, Kuminga believed he'd shown enough in supplementary roles to have earned more consistent trust and on-ball opportunity. Neither happened to his liking, sources said, only hardening his belief that Kerr and general manager Mike Dunleavy would only ever view him as a run-fast, jump-high athlete without the requisite skill to be a lead option.” (Via espn.com/nba/story/_/id…)

@GoldNickleDime @checktherhyme1_ @TheDunkCentral @anthonyVslater What about wins?

@ChiefMeesh @checktherhyme1_ @TheDunkCentral @anthonyVslater Curry’s stats dipped a little bit actually in Kerrs first year

@GoldNickleDime @checktherhyme1_ @TheDunkCentral @anthonyVslater And maybe it’s really hard or even impossible to develop bad players which is why everyone who has left the warriors have had less success

@GoldNickleDime @checktherhyme1_ @TheDunkCentral @anthonyVslater Steph and Klay continued to improve after Kerr came. So it doesn’t follow that all developmental credit goes to MJax. An alternative explanation of the facts is Kerr was able to continue to develop Steph and Klay (and Dray, etc.) because they were better players.

@GoldNickleDime @checktherhyme1_ @TheDunkCentral @anthonyVslater It might show the first thing but it does not follow that the second thing is true.

@ChiefMeesh @checktherhyme1_ @TheDunkCentral @anthonyVslater Just goes to show that they suck at drafting as much as they suck at developing players. Kerr can thank Mark Jackson for developing Curry and Klay

@BrockLandersJr @BillSimmons Which young players looked better after leaving?

@BillSimmons Bill - why can’t young players ever gel with Curry/Kerr teams? At what point is it ever their fault?

Interesting piece. Sadly there’s no statistical case (so far) for Kuminga to be a star. Can’t shoot 3s, not really a rebounder, erratic low-post player… if he’s one of your best 3 guys, where are you going? But he’s also had stretches where we went, “Oh yea, I kinda see it!”
