cmon Tatum that last 3 at the top of the key was GARBAGE

That ankle is clearly bothering him. He's not even looking at going inside at all and is passing it up before hitting contact.

Honestly, he just needs to rest if it's that bad.

if all he can do is pound the dribble and then go to the step back 3, he needs to sit.

That said, the last few possessions GS hasn't caught on and they're doubling him, with Tatum making the right read and getting an open look off the pass. He can still be helpful in that way, I guess, but doubt they continue to do that all game.

EDIT: And Tatum takes it to the hoop in contact as I say that lol Maybe it's feeling a bit better now.

then he goes one on one for another step back 3 for an airball.
sheesh...

this is the crap that everyone complains about Brown, but when JT does it, sometimes more often, we are somehow more ok with it.

I'm not.

They are 10-23 from three and one of those from Curry. C’s missed a lot of good looks.

I'll never understand why teams don't run secondary action on final plays at the quarter/half.

Just everyone standing around.

Been frustrated with Tatum for about a month now.  I acknowledge the ankle is hurt but his shot selection has been a problem even before tonight. 

Guy doesn’t miss when he takes good shots.  Why force garbage?  Too much talent on this team for that to be the best we can get.

Brissett was great in those limited minutes.   It was awesome!  get him back in the game
he had energy, hit his shots, made an impact.

If KP is back tomorrow I wouldn't expect him to play.

Man.  If we weren't having an off shooting night we'd be slaughtering these chumps.

JB with a bad turnover, but atones with two great transition plays.
