Audio levels on high to match Kelly Oubre's on high

Before watching the breakdown - my favorite moment of the game was D Lee getting that And-1 on Luka and talking that shit... when Damion starts yapping you know the other team's in trouble hahaha

Good stuff man. These boys heard us complaining I swear! Good win. If we can handle Dallas next game I’ll be encouraged

I loved oubres body language here. Even though there was little resistance from Dallas I think it’s important that he can settle into the team around him and realize he’s not the first offensive option and the only one who should be scoring. When he slowed down his motion it gave me major Iggy vibes when he would be open in a corner to hit a big shot. And that’s all you can really ask for. Continue bringing that defensive energy and be collected on the O side of the floor. Mid season this team can be dangerous. I could see them really coming into form post ASG

Kristaps has always been soft but man I didnt realize how far down the path of Pussyville hes gone. Dude exclusively took spot up threes and fade away hook shots. 5 rebounds? Are you kidding me you have 8 inches on any opposing player.

Tbh this game gave me hope that we could 4-0 this Texas trip

Ezra Abbey

lmao I didn't catch that interview, steph really said his full government name 😂🤣

Ezra Abbey

He was one of their better players last night he was railing in threes, I realize his game is unconventional and might be a bit "soft" but his spacing and shooting is super valuable...

If small ball continues to work, I wonder how they implement Wiseman into this. My inclination is that they will start to use him more like Bogut...perhaps, but he's not a great decision maker yet. This is why losing Chriss was so big, guy was actually an amazing passer and was comfortable in space.

I would've saved that for game 2. Luka is going to go nuts now.

oubre at 4 needs to be the thing going forward. This is gonna sound super controversial but I think they should play Draymond off the bench when Wiseman comes back. Let Wiseman play with 4 shooters around him, that's our opening look. Then bring Draymond in as a small ball 5 and move Wiggins to the 3, Oubre to the 4, and play crazy fast death lineup ball as a change of pace.

Shea Johnson

didnt get to watch the game live yesterday so this review hit so good, i still don't know what I want to do with Oubre but I am so excited for the JTA redemption arc, that man could be something

Anonymous

Great video - I feel the only thing missed was when Wiggins blocked Luca and Steph with the reaction. Curious about Mulder. Let's say they need a big and they release him. Who are the candidates they could pick up?

Anonymous

Seemed interesting that Wiggins had more arc on his shot yesterday than he previously had, maybe that had to do with him starting off 0-10

Great vid. Few observations: Dray can drive to the rim like that at least once a game and really keep everyone honest, he was on point last night. Oubre didn't even celebrate his 40th point. Maybe a sign of more maturity? Either way, I'd love to see him string a couple games like this together, especially against tougher teams.

I think Johnson said something to Wiggins after that dunk. Right after that Wiggins started making some plays!! I think Oubre read your comments on me and others talking about that trade. The man stepped up this game and looked like a whole different beast.

he's been saying his full name a number of time. team needs to get kelly a nick name! KO seems simple enough and has some bang to it

Steph was right on the money with Uber being a grown man about all the noise. Dub nation has been merciless and rightfully so on Tsunami. You right about Luka an C.Webb actually had a good point that Luka doesn't want to feed Draymond any trash talking energy. He did a bit and it lead to the second half beat down and punking of the Mavs.

Would you still pull the trigger on the Lonzo trade?

My hope is that OuBAE saw that buying into the warriors style of play would be beneficial for him and the team. After seeing his interview on All The Smoke, the guy is definitely mature enough to buy in. It is going to be interesting though if he continues to "buy in" in front of a crowd in Chase.

Oubre's performance won the game for the Warriors but do yourself a favor and go look at the box score and you'll see that the Warriors wiped the floor with Dallas in the second half because everybody performed with quietly stellar contributions, Lee, JTA, Mulder, Baze (7 rebs) and at the start of the fourth Wigs got it done too. THIRTY SEVEN ASSISTS.

Dawg.... that boy got dawg in him... we are going to miss him next year

I think Dallas made a mistake giving Kristaps the 5 year extension. He's essentially getting paid 30+ million a year to be a spot up shooter. I remember a few years back when Phil Jackson said KP may be "too tall" to play basketball. Looking at the statement now, I think he's correct. KP's center of gravity is too high for him to post up any decently strong guards and forwards. If KP cant find a way to generate offense outside of shooting threes, Dallas may be in for a lot of trouble.

I think dallas being on a b2b was responsible for losing gas in the 3rd quarter.it happened to philly too. Idont think luka has aweak personality. U cant win mvp in euroleague if u do. Also draymind didnt tell them to go at luka. Everybody in the league knows luka and porzinges have weaknesses on defense. Dame gave them 60 in the bubble and KP cant defend in space.. luka won vs warriors as a rookie even when wehad kd ,draymond and klay 2x. The only player luka has never won against is steph.. if luka has mental weakness fior anyone i think it is steph cos they once trained together and he saw steph get down to shooting in that practice. There was also a game when steph and kd faced luka and luka was having a good game and steph just went off and dropped 46 and closed him out . The psychology that this dude is on another level is probabaly the problem luka had yesterday.

We shouldn't use Oubre with Wiseman.

Anonymous

Juan said postgame he’s been working on his 3 with Ron Adams and Barbosa. Don’t know if those trainers are for the lower level guy but regardless i don’t know if Draymond could swallow his pride.

Anonymous

Wiseman is lowkey one of the problems. He doesnt know how to play yet. He just goes to the dunkers spot and clogs the paint leaving oubre with nospace

Anonymous

I believe Wiggins went 7/9 in the second half. Impressive that he can follow up a bad half with a great one.

Anonymous

Draymond doesnt want to get better. His pride has overcome his senses. He should get a private skills coach. In 2016 he was training with brandon payne and he shot 38% 3pt.. he then left and his shooting got worse. Lee has been training with brandon payne for a few years now. MPJ too trains with him and both those guys have improved in shooting. Cam reddish also and his shot is getting better.. truth is draymond doesnt want to improve. He is too lazy ..

The vicious cycle of Oubre performances continues. Let's hope he is catching on a little bit to the offensive AND defensive system but this was a bad game to make that judgement call on. Dallas offensive strategy was terrible, just drowning themselves in bricks. LOL Chuck was disgusted watching the game it was hilarious.

Branden Edwards

I knew this game was a lock when Oubre was hitting step back middies off the dribble. Game over.

Anonymous

Oubre’s attempted dunk on Poor Zingus was huge, got him his fourth foul and took him out of the game until it was in hand for the dubs. Doubt that was his intention, but still a big play. Watched JTA at my high school, incredible to see him play like this for the hometown team. Like you said, if his 3s keep dropping, he’ll stay a big part of this team. As good as this game felt, I’m gonna stay tentative until we can string four wins together. Hopefully that time comes soon, and maybe this forced smallball will help catalyze the flow and familiarity needed for that to happen.

Nathan Glanzer

I think Kelly might prefer that. I've noticed a lot of people call him Kelly Oubre Jr. Announcers, Coaches, everyone.

Anonymous

A great game for Kelly but I'll reserve judgment on whether this is really a sign of growth and maturity and buying into the system. I'll repeat again that I don't think there is any real way to keep him past this season. They would either have to trade one of the big 4 or Lacob would have to just spend a billion dollars in and not care about the luxury tax at all. I mean surely none of the big 4 are going to renegotiate their contracts to be team friendly at this point right? Given that trading him at some point this season seems like the only real option, unless they know guaranteed there is someone they can pick up in the off season without contest.

Draymond will fight the whole organization if we move him to the bench

We are without our bigs and last time White didn't play for Spurs. I would be happy if we could 3-1

To Alch's point, the way Oubre was patient this game seems like the biggest sign of growth for his during these 20+ games. I never kept track of his play before he got here, but the moment I saw him catch a pass in the corner and drive to the basket, I was HOPING he would be able to play like he's playing now. As up &amp; down as I've been on Oubre, he's earned my good will as a player.

Anonymous

Hmmm, maybe if KP bulked up or got lower (like Wiseman) it would counteract the problem. "Too tall" for basketball seems like an oxymoron...but yeah he does seem like he can get pushed around too easily.

Anonymous

Yeah, I've kind of given up on Draymond shooting the 3, so I'm hoping he keep driving to the basket and draws some fouls...points or an assist are just cherry on top.

Jerry Heverly

This game proves I know nothing about basketball…….Before the game I would have wagered my next pension check that they had NO chance.I envisioned Porzingis cramming Damion Lee in the basket with regularity.....Toscano I dismissed as a pretend-NBA player…...Oubre, I heard was not getting along with Steph, I was ready to see him shipped off for Ball and his ridiculous jump shot…...As Emily Litella once said, “Never mind”. {https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZLeaSWY37I The NBA needs to get rid of back to back games, it totally distorts everything. Look for Dallas to play much better Saturday with a day of rest.

so much for the luka for mvp campaign. His defense is much worse than Harden's.

Anonymous

I don't know but i still feel like we need to get some pieces before deadline ..

Qiushi Hu

The fact that Steph called Oubre Kelly Oubre Jr meant that Oubre was not in the inner circle. Expect a trade soon

Anonymous

Loved the mention that Poringis got jumped in his home town. Recall that was when he was still waiting to sign his mega deal after he already had a bad injury. So this 8 foot tall target goes out in Russia and starts drinking beer and talking shit. One bar stool to the knee couldve been 100mln. Just told me hes dumb as shit

Funny thing about Luka is he seems immature with the whining but LeBron's been doing it his whole career and it rarely gets brought up lol. Like you said Luka needs to lose some weight, I have no idea why he looks like he had way less baby fat when he was a teenager. Now he looks like a teletubby

Something about it rolls off the tongue. It feels incomplete to call him Kelly or Oubre.

Aye fam what u think about Dallas trading for Zach Lavine

athleticalchemy

If you know you know! Pay attention to how players address others, Andrew was Wigs real quick.. no one calls Loon Kevon

athleticalchemy

true but LeBron does it in a different way, it seems more "poor me" with Luka where with Bron its like Im the king do you know who I am.

athleticalchemy

Agree he needs to string some good games together to call it real growth.. but there were glimpses

athleticalchemy

I see what you did there... But I agree that interview made me think he is willing to do what it takes at this point in his career

athleticalchemy

Its easy to root for when you go that hard.. if you notice thru all these struggles I haven't really laid into him. I have to point out what Im seeing but I aint been shittin on him

athleticalchemy

I think he is frustrated the team isn't as good and he doesn't know how to handle it and lift them up

Anonymous

The problem is with that matyr ball luka is playing, no star will want to play with him. He leads them in all stats.. no star wants to go play for another star. They'll rather play with..

Do we even have any trade pieces besides oubre jr wiseman and wiggs? Cos I dont think the dubs should give up on them boys yet, but at the same time we need some adjustments tho..

Yes, but when has Draymond bullied Harden to the rim in the post?

Yo Uncle Alch, love the content. Can you stop using Vimeo and just do everything as a private video on YouTube? The quality and frame drops on Vimeo are distracting from your great analysis. Whatever you did for the Warriors State of the Union, please implement that more to up the quality for us who pay for the content. Thank you for taking the time to read this!

athleticalchemy

The games are 720 p 60 fps rather than 1080 30fps those are my direct tv options. I was trying to move to just ripping it off league pass at 1080 60 but they are on national tv so much it became a problem. Vimeo actually has higher encoding than youtube..but there are always both links

Ohhh ok I feel that. I mean I prefer hearing fitz and bukie too. You're talking over them so I never really notice or care tbh. Thank you for taking the time to lay that out for me.
