2018-2019 NBA Regular Season Thread

If they can finish their tough November schedule still over .500, then they should be in the mix. I think they are 3-3 so far.

They are impressive and when Pop compliments your team......you know it's genuine.

For KCP, Rondo, and Lance. Deal!

I agree!!!

Sounds like the Warriors were ready to scrap with Dray after the game lol @CitySushi @msgkings322 @Mecca

Kind of standard imo. Good it's getting this out of the way early in the season. This is what happens when Curry is not on the court. Draymond, Curry, and Livingston have all been out the last few games, so KD had to be a playmaker. They've had to deal with guys being put in positions they normally would not be, which leads to confusion on the court.

Both Livingston and Draymond were back last night. Creates a disruption with so many guys in and out of their main roles.

I'm kind wondering who the "teammates" were. Could be both Klay and KD pressing Draymond, possibly Iguodala too. No one else on the roster would have that kind of clout/demeanor to speak up against him.

Overall this is healthy for this team. Surprised this actually doesn't happen more often.

Wow.....I would love to know what Dray said to Durant in the huddle.

Looked like Iggy was trying to get Durant to squash it.

But, neither guy wanted to let it go.

We all know Durant is uber-sensitive.

So, it will be interesting to see if this lingers.

Kind of nice to have a very winnable home game the next night. If that goes smoothly hardly anyone will care much about this.

Draymond's not backing down. KD will get into it too. That's why I'm really curious to Woj's report that "teammates", plural, got into it with Draymond after the game.

Draymond probably bought KD's ticket to NY post game. LOL.

TBH, this whole conflict is just a difference of style. Draymond's true to the nature of the team. He wanted to push the ball and have KD and Klay run the wings and try to get an easier bucket in transition. You can always pull the ball back and reset from there. But KD wanted to slowly walk the ball up the court and iso, which is counter to the Warriors style, but best for him.

Draymond did mess up last night with that last play, but in his defense, he's kind of the only guy on the team who's not really "allowed" to make mistakes. People seem to think he needs to make the right play every time, but Steph and KD gets passes when they make a bad decision. They chalk it up to them needing to make a play for the team to win. Klay also gets a pass when his shooting is off. Draymond for some reason doesn't seem to get that benefit of the doubt.

Not a big deal, imo. On the Lakers channel out here, they've had interviews with some of the Showtime guys and they were saying they'd have arguments fairly regularly about stuff that went on during games. As long as everyone keeps sight of the ultimate goal, it shouldn't be any more of an issue for these Warriors than it was for those Lakers,

Talking heads say it was Klay.

Apparently, he was upset that Draymond refused to acknowledge he made a poor decision.

It looked pretty gnarly.

Glad it wasn't.

But, I hope he doesn't rush back.

He has the chance to be really, really good.
