KP did not play the front side of the back to back and tonight he came out the gate strong with his presence felt on both sides. He ended up with 30 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals and 3 blocks off the bench, including the block on Reese down the stretch to seal the win. Melton chips in an efficient 27 points on ¹²⁄₁₆ shooting as the Warriors wins. Tonight shows what kind of damage KP can do when he is truly healthy and conditioned.

It makes me sad that this season is lost bc of the injuries.

I genuinely think that a playoff squad of healthy Curry/Moody/Jimmy/Green/Porzingis + bench of Melton/Podz/Gui/Horford/etc. could make real noise. That’s a lot of really good players. Headed by 3 guys who can drop 20 ppg on 60+% TS every night, and led by Chef Curry.

The “everyone healthy” part probably will never happen, but oh well. It’d be a lit squad if it did.

Klutzy_Struggle8659 | Warriors

Replace Green with Gui or Horford.

KazaamFan

There is some hope i think in dub land. Steph will be back. If KP can really be healthy for the playoffs, it’s an interesting team. Gui Santos is a real rotation player they found. We know Draymond can be good. Melton, podz. Horford. And they have some useful role players. They obvs needs health, a huge IF, but there’s something there. Okc and san antonio are just so good

After Bam, this, and Queta getting 24 points in 31 minutes it’s pretty clear there should be a substantial discount factor for any big man’s point total against the Wizards.

Kerr assumed the Knicks game would be unwinable but the Wizards game was winnable. They rested a couple players in preparation for this game.

This is an ongoing theme developing that is making for some weird regular season basketball. Playing OKC? Rest your guys, your chance of winning ain’t great anyways. Playing the wizards? Full send roster lol

Orphasmia | Warriors

Lol it is funny, it makes sense when at the end of the day all games are still just +1 to the record regardless of how tough the opponent is. Best to secure the ones you can get vs get into a dog fight, risk injury and potentially still not win anyway

lohohohoho | Warriors

They had a game against the timberwolves 2 day before the knicks game and porzingis played in that game, so giving him 2 days rest instead of 1 day rest is obviously much better
