The best thing that could’ve ever happened Lindy is him being traded to the warriors Lindys game is what the warriors are. He’ll definitely get good minutes, obviously his shooting, but his defense is absolutely perfect for the warriors, he’s always hunting steals and is in passing lanes. He’s not the greatest on ball defender but he definitely knows where to be on d. I think that’s ultimately what’ll get him minutes. Plus Steve has a tendency to play guys like Ty Jerome ant lamb and Chris chioza lol. But Lindy is way better than those guys fs. As a Native American and warriors fan, I love that we picked him up. Now I don’t have to watch thunder games to see him play lol but also, he’ll be able to help us out too.
The buzzer beater he did was not the only one. He did it when he was still w the Blues making 6 3’s 34-pts playing against SC Warriors during an OT period. Made a clutch pressure shot on that game & won. That’s why Warriors have been eyeing him since then. The kid knows how to shoot on a high % rate. Proven from his last game 5/7. I hope he maintains his shots till he gets closer on the rotation next to SC. Wonder how it’s going to look. Go Warriors & splash Waters.
Face it. TJD, & Podz are Great. Curry is Curry. Waters is talented. Green is old and can't shoot and Wigs wants out. All the rest of Gsw are trade bait.
The Hauser/Duncan Robinson comps are pretty good, I assume he'll just have to tighten the handle and be able to play-make once teams catch on to the shooting. He won a chip in the G-League so he's a bit familiar with big games. But we're missing one thing, HE'S GOT THE NAME - Waters is the perfect name to continue the splat legacy.
play him all you can now, and lest see if he is ready to fight for that SG position. Competitiveness is great for te team!! just can wait to see what he can do! if he can improve even more from his OKC days then we have ourselves a raw diamond!!
I agree with canceledmisfits. We have a lot of untapped talent on the bench. I don't think there is enough minutes available to give them all enough playing time. We might be forced to trade someone probably at least 2 players to make room for one. I hope we make the right decision if that happens. Too much wishful thinking. We need to have someone play at least 2 seasons pretty much full time. At least 25+ minutes for 2 consecutive years before we can say. Might this be our next Splash Brother?
We definitely do have depth but need another versatile big. I like all our players but Gui Santos is redundant at wing and his spot should go to another big. Can we please trade for Tristan Vukcevic from the Washington wizards. 7ft sniper!
He's gifted enough to have the final shot of the game drawn up for him and he hit it. He's been doing this for a while and finally made it work in the NBA. Seems he's figured it out. I'm not concerned about putting pressure. I promise you he's not thinking about my video when he's about to hit from deep.
@@SwishCultureI believe he’s the reason Plowden was let go and because of that game no one hasn’t said anything about Plowden. Not to mention Plowden got a DNP for ATL last pre season game.
Poole had a deep bag. I don't see Lindy as much of that (a scorer) as I see him as a knockdown shooter. As long as he knocks down open looks though, he'll have a path forward and he's shown he can do that.
Hield has been one of the best VOLUME shooters in the NBA. I'm projecting Lindy to be one of the best going forward based on what I've seen of him the last few years.
You gotta stop calling every single person a splash brother. That shit is disrespectful as hell to the legacy they built. It represents an era of a specific duo, NOT trio. Poole party was fine, it’s its own thing, but yall be stretching it lately. Pls retire calling every fucking person with a warriors jersey a splash brothers.
Warriors problem is they keep trying to recreate the past like Klay isn't a hall fame talent. You cant replace a Klay Thompson, there won't be any more splash brothers. The warriors need to find a new identity and play style and go that direction but to keep playing the same way with lesser than parts isn't going to work.
No there’s a difference u can’t replace a Steph Curry, Curry has never fallen off unlike Klay cos unfortunately Klay has had injuries, buddy hield, Lindy waters nd Airpodz will be enough for shooting this year even Melton nd he can play the better defence so I think if u ask are the warriors able to replace Klay I say yes they just have, pretty easily acc, so let’s not bag on GSW cos this year could be the year, I know we making the playoffs @ least
@@sonyawilliams4989 thank you @ least someone realise we’re not talking about replacing Klay pre injury, when he was a above average defender, we’re talking Klay now who was 0 for 10 in the play in game, he hasn’t been a stellar defender for years so I’m willing to stake my bets that the Dubs will be better this year nd I don’t think they’ll have trouble making the playoffs 👌🏾
Steve Kerr has a system built around Steph Curry that he knows works. A piece left so he tries to replace the pieces and fit new pieces around the missing pieces. Unless they get a different coach with a different vision, that's the idea.
And that is Kuminga, Podz, Moody, and TJD. When they engage and liberate the younger players, they succeed. Kerr needs to implement the vets sparingly to teach, lead, and inspire the younger talent. Kerr also must be patient and allow them room to make mistakes and learn. Too many times, the younger players are doing it their way and winning; until Kerr throws a fit because it wasn't his way and benches them.
I get that he’s a good player but why does everyone say splash brother like with buddy hield he hasn’t even played yet and he’s a splash buddy he needs to earn that and Lindy waters III only made one game winner and is now a splash brother that’s too quick to consider that come on
Bro buddy has had one of the highest shooting percentages every year over the course of his NBA career just do ur research if u wanna know or verify things, why do u think the warriors got him
Swish stop it!!! It seems you find creative ways to disrespect Klay Thompson. The title of "splash brothers" has officially come to an end once Thompson changed teams, goodness man stop it. That's like replacing Lionel Richie with the Commodores despite the group still existing, it's NEVER the same.

there are only 2 splash brothers: steph and klay.
we had poole party, splash buddy, we can get a new nickname for lindy waters too.
Well, the man's name is waters, he's splashing something for sure!
We definitely do have depth but need another versatile big. I like all our players but Gui Santos is redundant at wing and his spot should go to another big. Can we please trade for Tristan Vukcevic from the Washington wizards. 7ft sniper!

In order to be Klays replacement…his shooting AND DEFENSE gotta be at a high enough level to free up pressure for Steph.
True
Not the next klay but solid option of the bench. A plug and play guy
exactly
Jordan pool is the long lost but now forgotten true splash brother of steph
I do miss Poole. I guess now we have splash waters
Bro had 1 good pre season game against nobodies now he's just worthy to start? Lol
No. Bro had a TON of good shooting games and he's worthy of getting minutes. Let's not get it twisted.
@@SwishCultureI believe he’s the reason Plowden was let go and because of that game no one hasn’t said anything about Plowden. Not to mention Plowden got a DNP for ATL last pre season game.

Poole had a deep bag. I don't see Lindy as much of that (a scorer) as I see him as a knockdown shooter. As long as he knocks down open looks though, he'll have a path forward and he's shown he can do that.
It will probably be Melton to replace Klay.
We'll see. He took a paycut so he might have some leverage. But fit is also important and the Warriors need size, not small ball.

Can’t splash without some waters
One way or another he'll be splashing for sure
Why are ppl comparing him to Klay. Let players be themselves.
He is going to get a lot of min and playing time that will get a role
hope so!
Kinda sounds like Klay in the beginning on the video.
He is similar in a number of ways.
I can't even believe you use that term.
Well, believe it
Nahhhh bruh ... there won't be a splash brother without clay ... more like splash cousins
Klay abandoned the team.
Warriors have too much players that all do the same thing there has to be a trade coming.
7:51 Isn’t buddy hield the 2nd best shooter on the team? Or am I missing something
Hield has been one of the best VOLUME shooters in the NBA. I'm projecting Lindy to be one of the best going forward based on what I've seen of him the last few years.
Klay is one of one
So is every other player in the NBA
