If Jordan Poole keeps giving this kind of effort, and results, it’s going to be tough for any team to beat the Warriors. I’m very proud of this young man with his work ethic!

So many positives from the Warriors win over the Jazz today. Yes, Draymond and Steph, but I loved Wiggins relentless attacking all game long. Need to see more of that! When Jordan Poole shoots a “three” without having to create it off the dribble he’s a much better shooter!

No one messed with Sarunas. I once asked him if he had ever hit someone in a fight. “No, I would never hit anyone because I am afraid I might kill him”! Also, never used a backhand in tennis. Would simply switch the racket to the left or right hand for a forehand shot!
