He's even doing Steph's 1-2-3-4 point play celebration 😅

I mean, if he continues knocking 4 pt plays...

Just thought I'd say that TDJ had 23 points on 15-16 from the free throw line, that one miss being intentional down 2 with 3 seconds left. What an improvement! Miss him on the dubs

In all seriousness wishing KP the best and I hope he gets healthy soon. Really excited to see us play at full strength when Jimmy and Moses come back, I think our team is better than we’ve gotten credit for lately.

As soon as I saw Podziemski signed his 5 year extension online all I saw in the comments (pretty much universally) were people clowning on him i.e "How tf!!!! This got to be Steve Kerrs boyfriend or something!" "He has to have some serious blackmail on one of the higher ups in the organisation wtf" "LMFAOOOOOOO" etc... Podz finished the last 27 games of last season averaging 17.5 ppg, 6.2 rpg and 4.1 apg. Say thats around what his averages are for this upcoming season, averaging 17.5 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 4.1 assists (while staying efficient and playing good defense) at $22M would be a fair to slightly positive value deal in today's NBA imo. I'm not saying its a great deal / a steal but its not a overpay especially for a 23 year old who should continue to get better. $22M per year is basically high-end starter money right now which is what Podz is, he just to seems to be a lightning rod for criticism among NBA fans for whatever reason.

My man just signed an extension, he's here for the long run, he's been a dog for us his whole career and all you haters can say is bitchy pettiness. If you want our team to succeed, then you'd be positive towards our players, especially our backup PG.

Oh he reminds you of Steph? Funny, you didn't say that last season, or the season before. Steph is obviously his role model though, so what? Everyone reading this picks up mannerisms of people they admire and want to emulate. That's human nature. Probably 90% of your behavior is picked up from others.

Last season he said he wants to be better than Steph, okay let him try. Fine with me, I just want W's. Go Podz Go!!!

I know it's pre season but all the signs are just there already and Jimmy if he played this season will be the final piece we need, this is what I was hoping what we could have been last season.
