Warriors @ Suns Tuesday game thread 11-30-2021

I agree with Ayton but not the rest. How can someone Like Ayton still not get it? Shamet is not a bad player not sure what you expect.

Shamet is not bad, but there is a lot of room for improvement. If you look at his stats he is essentially the same player in year 5 he was in his rookie season.

I was just anticipating him being more than just a decent spot up shooter - but he's not. That is really his only NBA skill, and it's not even elite.

Saric should not get any minutes unless we are playing a team with multiple bigs.

We are far better off running a nine man rotation with extra minutes for Cam/Mikal than letting him on the floor.

Of course if someone is injured they would come into play - nobody they would get time over currently is injured - That's why I said they would not be getting any minutes now.

Nadar has been a disaster this year when he has played, by far our worst player getting any time. I for one am happy he is injured right now, because if he wasn't we would be a worse team because Monty would still be playing him.

Saric also shouldn’t be factored in because the reality is he isn’t coming back this season. Thus it’s not like he’s someone who’s going to possibly help down the road this season like a Klay or their 1st pick Center from last year.

I think he has been surprisingly good defensively, but nobody ever mentions that.

That’s got to be one of the best combo records historically for a game at the 20ish game mark, right? Two teams on roughly 70+ wins pace.

Both teams are due for an off game.

So in your opinion saric shouldn’t get minutes. But the truth is, monty likes him. If he were healthy he’d be getting minutes.

Both teams are due for an off game.

Our offense has been off here and there but our defense keeps us in it allowing us to still win.

Draymond Green is expected to play.

As I recall Abdel Nader had arthroscopy on his right knee in April. He has had knee issues in the past. I'm not optimistic at this point.

Suns have options to guard Steph Curry. If Nader were healthy I would even try him on Curry.

I'm glad JaVale McGee is no longer on the injury report.

All I want for Xmas is this win. Everyone is watching. I'm feeling a Suns Blowout.
Suns by 20+ Just need to put someone IN Curry's ass from the get go.

I wouldn’t even consider playing Nader in these games. He brings nothing at all

I miss Craig

Nader is not an option because he is out. However, if he were healthy I could see him as another defender quick enough occupy Curry on defense. Also he has some height which would be beneficial.

Suns could certainly use a versatile player like Torrey Craig to play the frontline positions.

I really like Torrey but he's a 3/4 and we need a 4/5. He can play the 5 spot in rare situations when we go really small but it wouldn't be fair to force him into that 5 spot with any regularity.

Dude, Curry would destroy Nader.

Curry can destroy a lot of players but Nader would have been another body to throw at Curry on defense.
