Aaron Gordon and Peyton Watson are both probable for Tuesday’s game in Denver. Stephen Curry is probable for Golden State, while Draymond Green is questionable.

Is it time for Steve Kerr to shorten the Warriors’ rotation? Curry, others hint yes.
Curry: “We probably need to be more predictable on a night-to-night basis so guys can get a little bit of a rhythm. Is that shortening it one or two guys? Maybe.”

Helpless defensive half from the Warriors in Phoenix. The Suns went 14-of-21 on 3s, killed them on drive and kicks. Steve Kerr searching rotationally. He played 13 guys in the first half, didn’t find many answers. Warriors are down 17, in danger of fourth straight L. – 10:04 PM

Steve Kerr has seen enough of Devin Booker picking apart Warriors defense.
Timeout Golden State with 5:10 left. Suns up 53-42.

Draymond Green hit a corner 3 as Kevin Durant was closing out, started talking shit. KD gets his own corner 3 on the other end off a Mason Plumlee drive(!) and he returns the favor as both start laughing – 9:13 PM

“It’s something that I felt made sense for us.”
Steve Kerr on 13 guys averaging between 30 and 12 minutes.
Believes it has improved Warriors defensive pressure to play guys in spurts.
4th defensive rating, but Kerr said it’s tough determining who plays. #DubNation #Suns pic.x.com/uOBq9CJ84u – 8:02 PM

To start his pregame press conference, U of A alum Steve Kerr had a message for all the ASU people in the room, joking: “We still have the all-time series lead, 51-46. Any questions?” – 7:56 PM

More on this storyline
Duane Rankin: “When you start, it’s definitely different.” Kevin Durant on Grayson Allen 17 in Suns win. On Draymond Green: “When Draymond is at his best, it’s a good balance between being ultra aggressive and being on edge and also just being a cerebral monster that he is.” #Suns #DubNation pic.x.com/YxkTl4dqII -via Twitter @DuaneRankin / December 1, 2024
That left the Warriors without Curry in crunchtime against the Thunder’s fierce defense, currently ranked first in the NBA. Against it, with the game on the line, Golden State had a sequence of jagged possessions that ended in contested Andrew Wiggins and Jonathan Kuminga fadeaways, turnovers or rushed jumpers late in the clock. “I thought we were a bit scattered and that’s on me,” Draymond Green said. “The game gets to that point, somebody got to slow the game down and get us into a set. I am the veteran out there. I am the one with the most experience out there. So I gotta get my head out of my a– and go get the ball and get us into a set. Something that would be beneficial for all of us.” -via New York Times / November 28, 2024
Anthony Slater: Draymond Green on Jonathan Kuminga: “His first stint he wasn’t good because he wasn’t aggressive. He came back in the second quarter and went for broke.” pic.x.com/CyHWfZz6Es -via Twitter @anthonyVslater / November 28, 2024
