So, Marshall is out for a ton of time with an illness, comes back randomly for one game in which he's one of the better players on the floor, and now, several days later, he's out with the illness AGAIN?

What is going on?

It’s a crazy bug out here I just can’t seem to get right  

I think he genuinely is just re-ramping and isn’t 100%. It sucks but he’ll recover eventually. Till then this just means OMax has a crazy opportunity now.

Oh, I've had those illnesses that lingered and were day to day, especially if it's viral.

But why in the world has he been traveling with the team then and didn’t separate? It‘s definitely weird, especially since everybody else was back after 2 or 3 days.

Prob no longer contagious.

Then how did Kleber and PJ also get ill out of a sudden like two weeks after Marshall did? I hope this comes to an end soon, I think I haven’t seen a team be ill for a month one player after the other ever.

Maybe their medical staff doesn't understand about viruses and infections and stuff.

The way that we fans do.

I feel like we're back in the pandemic and even though we aren't doctors, we're playing one on this board.

I'm a software project manager.  I haven't a clue, just have dealt with this in a locker room.

@GrantAfseth
Golden State Warriors wing Moses Moody (left knee patellar tendonopathy) is now out against the Dallas Mavericks.

You are too good at this LOL

I guess the pilots‘ are at fault - that was almost three weeks ago:

big opp for Omax. He probably had two of his best performances as a pro in the past two games in short stretches. I think it is probably safe to say, Maxi is no longer a guy who can play a full season. The best hope, is you catch lightning in a bottle for a playoff run, I think. So Omax gets his chance. He won't be asked to do much or play heavy minutes, but the energy he showed (and not running around like a chicken with its head cut off) was a start. Really good opportunity for him to give confidence to Kidd that he is ready for that role. He probably isn't a playoff rotation player, unless he really matures but there should be minutes for him in the regular season.

[KillerLeft]

Well, that quarter was interesting.

[KillerLeft]

I really like the sets that get Luka heading downhill WITHOUT the ball, like that one.

[GATA]

Absolutely zero reason for Dinwiddie to be getting all these minutes

[KillerLeft]

Luka is having a good one tonight. Really effective on the glass, in particular.

[GATA]

More Luka. Sitting him the last 5 minutes in the first quarter cost us. Less Dinwiddie and Klay. Lean on Lively and Grimes. Like what Omax is doing

[ThisIStheYear]

This game is practically unwatchable.
