Oakland Warriors: A Golden State Warriors Podcast

Patrick breaks down the Golden State Warriors very comfortable 109-90 win over the Sacramento Kings. Specifically, he discusses how Jordan Poole's continued rise is going to make him a ton of money, how Draymond Green playing the second night of a back-to-back is an auspicious sign of things to come, the return of Jonathan Kuminga to big minutes, Andrew Wiggins toughening up, and Nemanja Bjelica s...

Patrick breaks down the Golden State Warriors stunning 111-107 come-from-behind win over the Utah Jazz.

It's been a minute, but Patrick is finally once again joined by Vu-Bang to talk about where the Golden State Warriors' Jordan Poole would fall in a 2019 NBA re-draft. Where would the 22-year-old third year shooting guard get picked in a do-over draft amongst the likes of Zion Williamson, Ja Morant, Darius Garland, R.J. Barrett, former Warrior Eric Paschall, Tyler Herro, Keldon Johnson, Matisse Thy...

Patrick discusses the Golden State Warriors' 107-103 loss to the Phoenix Suns.

Patrick discusses the Golden State Warriors' 123-95 blowout loss to the Memphis Grizzlies. Specifically, he talks about the handful of positive takeaways from this game, the doom and gloom many Warriors fans are feeling, the optimism of having the core three of Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, & Draymond Green eventually being healthy and together again, the weirdness of this season, learning to acce...

Specifically, he talks (0:08) the scattershot nature of the W's effort as they search for the right combinations, his confidence in the W's eventually shaking out of their defensive doldrums, the continued growth of Jordan Poole, the hope that Klay Thompson can string together some consistency, (8:15) accepting the rea...

Patrick is joined by Aram in Toronto to talk about ANOTHER Golden State Warriors' bad loss, this time at the hands of the lowly Orlando Magic, 94-90.

Additionally, in another Warriors' Mult...

Patrick breaks down the Golden State Warriors' 110-108 loss to the San Antonio Spurs. Specifically, he talks about veteran referee Ed Malloy's questionable judgement in calling a critical foul on Kevon Looney that helped decide the game, how far the W's could potentially fall in the standings, what the squad's record could be in these final 11 games, where James Wiseman *hypothetically* could have...

With the star-crossed James Wiseman suffering another setback with swelling in his surgically repaired right knee, Patrick discusses what it means for the 2020 No. 2 draft pick and the Golden State Warriors for the rest of this season and into the playoffs. What does it mean for the future if the 7-foot talent can't get fully healthy and isn't able to train and play in another Summer League? After...

Patrick is joined again by Kevin Lai to discuss the Golden State Warriors' 126-112 win over the Washington Wizards. It's safe to say the *REAL* season has begun for the W's with Draymond Green's very, very, very solid and comforting return. And not coincidentally, Stephen Curry (on his 34th birthday) went off like he hadn't since Dray got injured with 47 points on including 7-14 from three. With S...

Your Golden State Warriors are starting to roll. Patrick discusses the W's impressive 122-109 win over the Milwaukee Bucks. With Draymond Green set to return in the next game and James Wiseman looking solid in his G League rehab stint, the rest of the squad is starting to click like they haven't before. Klay Thompson had his best game in weeks, Jordan Poole continues his return to his pre-Klay for...

Patrick breaks down the Golden State Warriors' 112-97 road win over the Denver Nuggets. Specifically, he talks the return of the *REAL* Jordan Poole, Stephen Curry hunting his shot and playing like "normal" Steph, and how Patrick's 3 keys all season (health, playoff positioning, and getting the new and young guys ready for high leverage games) are all finally starting to trend in the right directi...

Patrick breaks down the Golden State Warriors' 112-97 win over the Los Angeles Clippers. Specifically, he talks how Jonathan Kuminga reminds him of a rookie Terrell Owens on the San Francisco 49ers, how the young guys (Kuminga, Moses Moody, and Jordan Poole) are continuing to look confident and energized, and how the vets look rested and focused. But most importantly, it was a good day for W's bas...

Patrick talks the Golden State Warriors' 131-124 road loss to the Denver Nuggets. In a makeup game that probably should never have been postponed in the first place, the W's young core and role players fought hard with Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Andrew Wiggins, Otto Porter Jr., and Gary Payton II resting back home in the Bay. Moses Moody continued to show he's ready for the moment, Jordan Poole...

Patrick breaks down the Golden State Warriors' troublesome 129-114 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. Specifically, he discusses why this was officially the W's worst loss of the season, how they're just lacking in any sort of toughness or grit, Klay Thompson's terribly rough homecoming to SoCal, how this losing streak could extend even longer and what that might do to the momentum and mindset of the...

Patrick discusses the Golden State Warriors' 129-114 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. Specifically, he discusses how this game reminded him of last year's W's squad, whether or not Moses Moody is a better option over Jordan Poole for the future, what this game means for their playoff positioning, and – bigger picture – how the squad and (by default) their fans are in a weird humdrum holding pat...

Patrick discusses one of the Golden State Warriors' worst losses of the season, a 107-101 come-from-ahead-loss to the Dallas Mavericks. Specifically, he talks about how inexcusable it is for a team with Stephen Curry to blow a 19-point lead in 10 minutes, the W's worrisome tendency to let winnable games slip from their grasp, the wasted opportunity to make up ground on the Phoenix Suns who lost ea...

Patrick breaks down the Golden State Warriors' first game after the All-Star break, a 132-95 beatdown of the energetic but lowly Portland Trailblazers. Specifically, he talks the W's well-rounded overall effort with 8 guys scoring in double-figures, Jonathan Kuminga's solid all-around game, Kuminga's improved ability to draw fouls and get to the line AND hit his free throws, whether or not the W's...

Patrick is again joined by Aram in Toronto to talk about the intrigue surrounding the Golden State Warriors' upcoming 23-game stretch run: (00:35) – Oakland Warriors Podcast's YouTube channel announcement (link to subscribe below) (7:47) – What we're looking forward to the most, including James Wiseman reminding people what he can do and seeing the championship core...

Patrick is joined by Aram in Toronto to break down what they liked and didn't like about All-Star weekend, including Jonathan Kuminga's quiet but injury-free showing in the Rising Stars Game, Juan Toscano-Anderson's workmanlike effort in a less than thrilling dunk contest, Andrew Wiggins' solid first All-Star Game appearance, Stephen Curry's mind-blowing record-breaking showmanship, using James Wo...

Patrick discusses the Golden State Warriors' 119-104 road loss to the Los Angeles Clippers. Specifically, he takes a look at the team as it's in dire need of the All-Star break. But as we've always known, the fate of this team rides or dies with the health of Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green. If Draymond can come back healthy along with a James Wiseman, I like the chances for a rec...

Patrick breaks down the Golden State Warriors' highly entertaining 111-85 win over the Los Angeles Lakers. Specifically, he talks Jonathan Kuminga's fearless night on the big stage against LeBron James, missing Draymond Green, the W's recent trend of low energy performances, Klay Thompson having a Klay Thompson type quarter to save the day, Andrew Wiggins discovering his clutch gene, LeBron's trac...
