00:00What I think people want the Warriors to look like I think they want them to heed that call
00:07so if
00:08What you want is?
00:10This is what you focus on nothing, but this swing the bat and then he did
00:16warriors
00:17Kaminga pods whoever
00:20Just come out with your butt on fire
00:24Like come out with your butt on
00:26On
00:28fire I
00:29Don't care if all the shots go in but can you guys just look like you are?
00:37ferociously
00:39competing
00:41To stay out of the play in tournament because right now my biggest concern is that the press conferences?
00:48Sound more intense than the games look
00:52That's what's bugging me about the Warriors their press conferences
00:56Well, we like we have to stay out of the play in and we have I mean it is all systems
01:02Go and we cannot have another effort like we did last night
01:06We cannot do that and then you come out and people are like I have two points at halftime
01:11Like starters had ten combined in the first half everybody had two points all five of them right like what is that?
01:22Why can't you look like your press conferences sound
01:27That's my thing
01:29It's a fair point and there's lots to chew on and I'll start with the second point first and I'll take your first point second
01:35Because the numbers would tell you that it's been all your problem
01:38They are 18th in the league in first quarter point differential
01:43They're a negative point seven for the year, which is 18th
01:47Which is bottom half and you think huh? What does that really mean?
01:51Well last year you were ninth in first quarter point differential with a point eight
01:56So you're one and a half points worse per first quarter this year
02:00And I look at these last three games where you're a minus six point seven including the Atlanta game where you lost it in the first
02:07quarter and Bonte just said that Chris Mullen talks about how
02:12It's a first quarter league and I kind of struck me like I thought it was a fourth quarter league
02:17But if your first quarter is so bad, that's the tone. The Atlanta game is a great example
02:22You were chasing it the whole way. You never got back Jonathan coming. I love coming up. I think he's got a bright future and
02:30You know whether or not he can he can score at all three levels or he's a bucket getter or finisher
02:35That's not what this is about. It's about what you said first mark the rebounds and last night. He had two rebounds
02:41He had two rebounds in 25 minutes of basketball. The team got out rebounded
02:47he came up with a grand total of two and just looking at his stats of
02:52Rebounds per 36 minutes played now. I know not everybody plays 36 almost nobody plays 36
02:58But for every 36 minutes he plays he gets six and a half rebounds which puts him
03:0515th among anybody who's played on the Warriors this year. He's behind
03:10Jackson Rowe URI Collins Pat Spencer. Well, that's more rebound per per 36
03:16No point point taken. Those are super small samples, but I've been Santos. Yes fourth. Yep
03:21Keep going Reese Beekman, which is let's take all those guys out. Come on and TJD
03:27Of course per 36, but other names like, you know, D Anthony Melton
03:32He's barely ahead of what Melton was doing
03:34Kaminga is six seven and the best jumper on the team and you get two rebounds
03:39Where's pods on that list pods is 11th. He's getting six point eight rebounds
03:45This is per 36, right? So but he's ahead of coming. Oh, yeah. Okay. Where's Gary Payton?
03:51GP 2 is
03:55GP 2 is 9th. Okay, so seven point two. He's also ahead head of coming down and then coming. Okay
04:01He's only ahead of okay, buddy healed he healed curry and Moses among current Warriors and
04:08Moses is on out on the perimeter a lot, but I don't I don't know what to do with that. That is a very
04:13very
04:15damning stop and
04:17Again, this is not I do not want to debate the merits of Jonathan coming
04:22I want to focus this all the way in and it's not coming that I even want to talk about
04:27It's all of the guys
04:29It's like the Warriors at times not a lot, especially after Jimmy Butler arrived. Let's not forget
04:36They've played very good basketball since Jimmy Butler arrived, but when the Warriors are not at their best
04:42I do feel like they turn into teenagers, which is to say I mean
04:46I think Steve Kerr a lot rings the same bell
04:51Over and over and over again, and they just don't do it
04:57So I don't even need your stats to show up. I need you to look like you're trying to get him
05:03That's what I want. I want Jonathan coming in to look like he's trying
05:07To get a rebound right? I want last night Jimmy Butler to look like he's trying period
05:14You know what I mean?
05:15I want I want Draymond green to be somebody who is threatening you at three levels all the time
05:22Like the assist numbers need to be there
05:26Like look for your shot. Sometimes obviously rebound the basketball be amazing on defense and when you say oh
05:33Well, we can't do that for four quarters for 82 games. Well, then that's where I throw up the red flag
05:40That's why I go. That's why I'm skeptical
05:43I
05:44Just I don't understand why at this moment of the season. It doesn't look like the Warriors ass is on fire
05:52That's my question. And that's I don't even care if you win. I don't even care if it works
05:57Can you look like Guy Santos all of you?
06:01And you just look like Guy for one night ass on fire hair flying
06:07Diving freaking out looking like you want the six seed
06:12That's it
06:14Yes, I'm totally with you and that's really
06:17Mainly what's bugging me and all the cuts that granny's been playing from Tim Roy who does play-by-play
06:23But he also does the analyst work on the road because he's going solo and you know
06:29All the cuts you can hear Tim and not frustration in his voice per se because he's not a coach or a player
06:35But yeah, he's kind of frustrated watching it where the one he's like, you know, they double Davion Mitchell
06:41And you leave Tyler hero alone on the three-point line Davion Mitchell will never be confused with an offensive threat
06:48Tremendous defensive player out of Baylor, which is why he still has a job
06:52But the Warriors just jump in and double him and Tyler here
06:55We're just kind of drifts to the top of the circle cover and you know knocks down a three
07:00it just not only the physical errors, but the mental errors that they
07:04Seem to be continually making and that's where I get frustrated
07:08Listen to 95 7 the game kgm zfm and hd1 San Francisco and Odyssey Sports Station always live on the free Odyssey app and now
07:14Coming to you live from the laughing monk studios. It's also why you don't hear me
07:20And many others. I think you were in this boat, too
07:22We don't spend a lot of time after warrior losses doing what I think the number one answer on the board is
07:29Like most fans. It's the same thing with a Niner game
07:33Most fans when a game doesn't go. Well, we go. Hey coach you screwed up and
07:38I I lean very much the other direction. It doesn't ever mean you're not allowed to criticize a coach
07:45It doesn't mean that it's never a coach's fault. They definitely own a piece of everything that goes on out there
07:52But if you watched a game and you look at it and go man other team looks like they're hustling more
07:59Look like they want it more look like they this that the other then why would you wake up the next day talking about rotations?
08:06That is completely irrelevant to me
08:09if you're having people have a hard time getting their butt on fire and
08:13Playing like Guy Santos at a time where you need every possession you need every quarter
08:19You need every win you need every single one to potentially do what you say
08:25Obsessed with which is Steph Curry's fifth ring if that's what you say, and if you don't look like that
08:31I I don't even I don't care who's coaching the team, right?
08:34I don't even want to know who's coaching the team and I don't think that it matters
08:38Who's coaching the team and last night's a good example where you mentioned it all five starters had two points through the first
08:4624 minutes of basketball and you know, they all played between 11 and 16 minutes and yet it was twos
08:53Ahoy, but he had ten good half and you mentioned Gee the only player who is a positive and plus-minus
08:59With a sturdy little plus one and just defensively
09:03There were so many possessions where yeah, you got beat and you overhelped or you helped off the wrong guy
09:10Miami was 8 of 11 from 3 and they shot 54% from the floor
09:14You didn't pressure him into that many turnovers and offensively you were flat and so you came out flat
09:20You didn't have your ass on fire like you're talking about almost nobody did and again the first quarter you can't keep
09:28having these big first quarter deficits
09:30Especially when you don't have 30 Steph Curry because when you don't have Steph Curry, you're not really built for this
09:36No, shoot 35% from 3 as a team without Steph. They're not a dynamic offensive team
09:42What's that stat that was floating around a lot today with Steph Curry?
09:46Warriors offensive rating in the NBA is 6 without him their last. Yeah dead
09:53Flipping last you can't come out fall down by 10, right period and it's not only the Steph points
09:59But it's also what Steph does for everyone else including Jimmy Butler
10:03Of course, you know you see and I think Bonte made a good point talking about how teams are now defending Jimmy Butler
10:09Because Jimmy is great and physical
10:12but he can't be going down there and big boy and guys like BAM out of bio or
10:18You know the kid from Orlando who is going 610 Carol. Thank you, babe
10:23I drew a blank there
10:24You can't all of a sudden take them down in the deep water and try to big boy him and no you're not gonna do that
10:30To Aaron Gordon who might be 280 pounds guys a monster
10:34It's like he's bigger every year pounds bigger every week right like man
10:39There's a large man and he's fit and I remember covering him in high school and not that he was wiry
10:45But he wasn't this no like this guy's built like go watch uncle drew. He doesn't look like this, right?
10:51You don't look like this at all. No, he's built like a yeah a brick house a brick bleep house. Totally. Yeah
