I’d much rather watch guts like Pierre, Reese, and Bryce out there than DJM & Poole. Just give me effort. I’m not even mad at those 2 for wanting out. I’m just mad at us for playing them anyway.
@AllenK_81 You can’t tell me Dems wouldn’t win GA and NC every election if the GOP didn’t cheat their asses off in black districts over and over. Probably Mississippi too. It’s why they try so hard.
Mosley just clarified Derik was going to get his neck worked on in the locker room. He took the most direct route instead of the route they want the players to take. So no big deal.
Just a little more on the Derik Queen thing after I spoke with someone with Warriors. (I wanted to see how players typically get to locker room during game.)
As I stated in previous tweet, the visitors locker room at the Chase Center (unlike other NBA arenas) is diagonal from the visitors bench. Normally, like at the SKC, the exit to locker room is right by the bench.
After talking to someone with Warriors, there are 2 ways to get from visitors' bench to visitors' locker room at Chase Center.
1. You can walk the baseline route like Queen did and turn right and walk length of court.
2. You can walk behind the Pels bench, scorers table and Warriors bench and turn left down that baseline.
(If it was during a timeout, he obviously could have walked diagonally across the court.)
The fact that he walked IN FRONT of courtside seats along the baseline and sideline (on way to locker) instead of behind the courtside seats (which he did on way back to bench) made it more noticeable. Especially since it was while the game was going on.
Why he went to locker room is a question we will get to ask Mosley about pre-game tonight, which will be his first time with media since Monday's game.
By the way, this happened right before the DQ stroll. Pretty sure that dude was just pissed off about the beat down, lashed out, Mosley pulled the starters, Derik went to walk it off, security walked him back, and the starters were in all the seats. https://t.co/SGLMRduKoV

I do know that the visitors locker room at Chase Center, unlike most NBA arenas, is diagonal from the Pelicans bench.
He walked to locker room in front of the seats instead of behind them, which makes it look worse.
Will see what Mosley says tonight.
@Kyr504 Did anyone ask Derik about that? Pretty sure he just needed to cool down after getting blown out, T'd up for fighting, and then pulled to put the backups in. It was weird, but I don't think it was aimed at the team. https://t.co/WJuS4JPA00
