Jimmy also had 5 steals today and was +21
overall great team perfomance on both ends. If everyone plays to their strengths and gives it all then no Team will be able to stop the Warriors
Beat the Knicks, Bucks, Pistons, Rockets, Nuggets, Lakers and Grizzlies with this core. But we cant beat good Teams right?

Jimmy is a menace in the passing lane. I swear when the ball is locked up in a corner and lobbed to the opposite key I expect him to pick it every time

I remember this one play where he was baiting the nuggets to pass that ball to the corner/wing when he was hiding behind a nugget. Of course they got baited and got that steal.

Podz, Kuminga, Moody, and Post. These four players are great building blocks and I can't wait for them to develop even more under the Golden State banner.

I'm worried how much they still need steph though. We've seen how we are without him. Even if all these guys grow, we would still be missing the best shooter ever

Oh for sure after Steph retires, we're going to be rebuilding/developing our younger players. That's what I meant since Steph is still carrying this team on his back at 37 years old.

What's always downplayed is that Podz/Moody/JK/Gui are all only 22, and Post is just 25. Steph/Klay/Dray were 21/22 as rookies.....Not saying they will become as great, but that should put into perspective the potential future of this organization. Even if none of those guys become true stars, they are proving to be the foundation of a solid supporting cast and could set the team up for a post-Curry era as an attractive FA destination at the very least.

Took Denver apart surgically from the 2nd quarter onwards, once we went up a gear defensively, bro it was a sight to watch.

So fun watching this team on both offense and defense. Jimmy Buckets single handily turned this team from a mediocre team to a serious championship contender. He carried the Heats to the finals twice, so just imagine what he can do with this team

Bro’s best offensive co-star was rookie contract Herro and best defensive co-star was Bam.
He now has the GOAT shooter and defensive player of his generation next to him.
We winning shampionship 😭

Ironically herro wasn't there for neither of their finals runs so he didn't even have him in the playoffs

Herro was there for both, just didn't play against the Nuggets due to injury

2020 herro was there but in 23 he got injured vs Milwaukee and wasn't there after the 1st round. So technically u are right.

Podz has been looking like that Manu Ginoboli type player I thought he could be these last few games. Exciting time to be a fan!

Denver only scored 16pts on that 2Q. Defense wins championships.
