EPTWeirdest Player-Referee interaction ever. Its like the ref wanted to square up with Shaun. He was backing away and the ref just kept coming at him, egging him to make contact, then BAM! EJECTED! And Shaun should get the benefit of the doubt. He is one of the most humble and most calm player in the league, and he had good reason to be agitated with that close out on him.

His eFG% has been about .475 (but so far this year up to .525) for reference. Curry is at .575. More or less he's the only option on a bad team so lots of opportunity. Ideally if the suns get better he will get a few less shots which will up his % (which are ok considering the volume) The other thing is pho plays fast so more shot opportunities and their d has been bad so they get the ball back quickly! And its fun watching him. He's like a kid giggling everytime camera is on him | ||

Not sure why he targeted Shaun when Draymond is such an easy target. | ||

http://www.sportsnet.ca/basketball/nba/report-no-timetable-return-injured-warriors-star-steph-curry/ it'll be re-evaluated in 2 weeks. so its a pretty bad sprain. it looked nasty. https://streamable.com/5zwhg Jay Triano and Demar Derozan are still buddies  Fred Van Vleet running the Toronto offense in the 4th quarter with Lowry and Derozan on the floor. here is the Booker injury. he was carried off while putting no weight on either leg. looks like he grabbed at his inner thigh. https://streamable.com/yjat9 | ||

Agent Zero does this sneaky diss and switch all the time, and the "and his height and dribbling..." is just red herring. He did this to Lebron in a segment for the Cavs-Warriors championship, saying things like "Lebron acts like a point guard... which is ok because he should get an easy layup all the time against other pgs" and "What the Warriors should do is what the Mavs and Spurs did, let Lebron shoot. He has no jump shot... but he will get his numbers". Classic Agent Zero stuff I guess. | ||

I'm sure Magic picked up on that. I suspect that was one of the reasons why Lonzo had to go in for a private workout to reassure the Laker brass that he was good enough to be their #2 pick. | ||
