I wondered after that 1st quarter if he might ask for a trade this year..If anything staying in GS and riding this out with no playoffs again is gonna hurt him more than staying does...
Its true

im a curry stan but if he cant take this team to a playoffs off sheer competitiveness, heart and experience then ima have to look at him differently. I dont want to but he gonna have to be held accountable

Wiseman is the only light at the end of the tunnel

19 Pts
7/13, 1/1 from 3
6 rebounds, 2 steals
-10
People are gonna regret underestimating wisemans ability just because he didn’t play in college.
What a fantastic debut, he’s everything I thought he would be.
He scored the majority of those points against no defensive resistance against 2nd/3rd string players, when the game was out of reach. His performance was far from fantastic. He took horrible shots and was constantly found out on defense when it mattered. But that was to be expected being his first game in a long time.

With all that said, playing against 2nd units should be the way forward for him, until he gains confidence and adjusts to the league.

Tough way to start the season. Ball needs to either go to Steph or Wiseman every time down and everyone else needs to play off of them. :yeshrug:
Draymond gonna play vs the Bucks or is he gunna chill on the bench again? :francis:

Defense looked HORRIBLE. EP looked hella slow and was always outta position. Oubre couldn't hit shyt, Wiggins took some horrible shots and also traveled like 5 times. Bench was mid and Looney:snoop:


Still I'm not too worried longterm tho. Mulder needs to play over Poole and Lee. Wiseman is the starter. He looked like a rookie out there but also looked like all the talent is there.

Steph can't do this "let me get everybody else going first" shyt this year. He's gotta be aggressive from jump and let everybody else get in where they fit in. Kerr needs to simplify the offense when Steph and Dray ain't in the game together. These bum ass sets gonna be the death of us this year.

Breh this his first real game since November 2019, didn’t practice with the team due to covid, and his first nba mins ever, give him some slack lol

Yes he set some bad/lazy screens and had some lapses in judgment, but that will improve over time, the talent is there.

I like the, “trial by fire” approach Kerr is doing by putting him in the starting 5
