klay is killing us. 4.5 on the shot clock inbounds he gets Grant Williams up in the air all he has to do is go up with the shot and take the foul and it's 3 FT's. instead he sidesteps the foul and then shoots a fading 3 that misses.

We have shot 2 FT's in 3 quarters of basketball partly refs partly because of plays like that instead of just taking the contact

Not counting players that retired before I was born:

MJ
Lebron
Kareem
Magic
Bird
Duncan
Hakeem
Shaq
Kobe

By the time Steph retires he’ll be top-10 easily IMO.
Oh yeah… Shaq is above him too. I don’t know about Hakeem or Kobe. I think he’s got a strong argument to be at if not above them.

This game... uggh. Feel like I have been transported back to the late 1990s NBA.

I get he's a great defensive coach but I've been very unimpressed with game management by Udoka. That was NOT a foul on Robert Williams, 10 point game closeout game why not challenge it. You win that and you have a chance to get it to single digits instead of letting the best FT shooter in the NBA this year add 2 points. That was really weird to me

Whatever they are paying Robert Williams it's not enough playing on a bum knee and he's just a beast.

That's the second time Thompson is done that silly touch foul for an and 1….if you're going to do that wrap them up!

any other series Wiggins would be MVP but Steph's offense is just so good he'll get it.
