The Warriors Found A Gem In Lindy Waters III
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 лют 2025
- With both the Warriors and Pelicans missing crucial starters, Golden State started out extremely slow before Steve Kerr looked down his bench for support. It was a new acquisition in Lindy Waters who exploded for 21 points, making big time threes, defensive plays, and actions in the system that helped the team crawl back in the second quarter. Let’s break down his game.
Love me some Lindy and Buddy!! 🎉❤🔥🔥
Splash Quadruplets?
@warriorsbreakdown just say Splash Squad, that way it can be an indefinite number of shooters! 😁😁🤩🤩
look at lindy man, so inspirational
OKC fan here, who is excited to see Lindy playing some good ball! Lindy was always loved by Mark and Mark always tried to get him in games when he could. Mark trusted Lindy a lot and many fans honestly were confused by it as he never had this good of a game for us. First Tre THE Mann getting opportunity in Charlotte and now the second coming of Linsanity is happening in Golden state. It’s awesome to watch!
Welcome man! And honestly that's so much of the NBA. Where you fit + the opportunity, you just gotta be ready. No one in OKC I bet was ever like "oh Waters sucks", he just legit never got much burn behind SGA Dort Giddey, shit probbaly Casen Wallace and Isaiah Joe too lol
steph with a splash buddy and now a water boy!! we the deepest team in the league
Lindy proved himself in preseaso already. Loving hes proved himself again given this opportunity.
He was the best option when they picked him up in the trade. While everyone cried about it
Lindy has cracked the rotation, I don't want to hear any excuses from Kerr
Lmao that's what you/I think haha, we never know what Steve Kerr's up to
what excuses have you heard?
The rain maker waters 😤
Stop it. Alchemy owns that statement.
Trademarked by Alc
@@TheRoadLessChosen I said it before he posted his vid 💯
@@vinshawnteh check the timestamps keed I said it first 🫡
Warriors system is where shooters can come to really shine. I love the fact that we've had so many journeymen, unknowns or people given up on come to us and have success.
And some haters blaming steve kerr as a coach 😂.
Yeah fair. My only grudge against Kerr is mainly 1) playing fucking bums over the lottery draft picks (Cory Joseph/Anthony Lamb) and 2) Taking steph out when he's hot. Everything else I'm more or less fine with ahha
Look carefully at Steve Kerr's reactions on the bench and you will see that HE KNOWS that he found a GEM!
What time stamp?
@@Nothing-nf8ve look carefully at around 3:38 - 3:40, immediately after the bucket he turns around and fist bumps one of the trainers like "Hey, we got that one correct!". There were even more similar positive reactions, but that's probably the most interesting one...
They gotta keep Buddy and Lindy around long term!
Tough part about being an NBA GM lol
First time I saw LW, I knew he'd be awesome.
Lol you can tell the future huh haha
@@warriorsbreakdown you have no idea.
Lindy is a big steal from OKC
To be fair, it's not like OKC had any use for him given their roster
@@warriorsbreakdown truly
Waters is a baller
Facts
Keep it up sir! You've been doing such a tremendous job with your breakdowns and play-by-play analysis!
Thanks man! Glad you enjoy the content
Appreciate the breakdown and your time!
Appreciate the comment and the support!
Golden State so deep they brought an entire ocean.
🤣🤣😂😅😁Lol!👍💦🐬
Maybe a prisoner of the moment type of take but: Waters should be in the starting rotation once Steph and Wiggs are back 😂.
Just the lineup with Steph, waters, wiggins, dray and TJD just have that nice blend of shooting, play making and defense. Waters has quick feet and has more of that "chaotic movement" type of feel with the offense.
I don't disagree. Obviously small sample size, could be prisoner of the moment. He's deceptively big at 6'6 too, so I think it depends on the opponent's lineup? Too many options at guard spots
As long as both of them (Buddy and Lindy) don't let ego get in their heads, they would stay longer with the Dubs.
Buddy's contract is crazyyyyy good too
We need this offense to come back 💪!
If only our guards can make their threes again
@@warriorsbreakdown Right. Every game, I'm crossing my fingers hoping that they get into a flow. It's like they need some kind of revelation right now. I believe in the depth of this team. We just need them to go crazy out there!
Great breakdown dude
Appreciate it! Thanks for the support
Great analysis. I learned something.Thanks
Appreciate the support! Glad you did
The rainmaker cooking up a storm tonight hopefully

Lindy 4 3!!!!
I see you with the background music, lol nice touch!
Ayyyy I'm glad some people notice it! Honestly one of my more favorite moments of making videos haha, picking the hip-hop instrumental to go with lol
Lindy -lays some nice D. I’m glad Kerr let him start tonight. His stats were not that impressive l but he was +13 tonight. When both Waters and Hield are in the game, defenders are in trouble. Throw in a little light-skinned magic in Steph, and this team is the most lethal in the League.
Yeah that's how I see it, he's filling the role perfectly right now with Steph out
I just want him to play the best 10-12 players regardless of who drafted them, draft position, or whether they are Kerry’s favorites. One game does not make Waters a starter, but may indicate he is one of the 10-12 players. They really need to trade some of this duplication. If Dray or Trace get hurt we are in trouble, we are too tiny.
I dont disagree. Did I say Waters should be a starter lol? Pretty sure I agreed with you here, I think Kerr has another guard he has to consider in his rotations
And Steph hasn't even gotten into rhythm yet.
Yeah exactly, well to be fair he hasn't needed to haha
Biggest takeaway: “Strength in Numbers!!” But hey - WHY IS EVERYONE SNORING? SLEEPING ON MOODY?!! 🛌🛌🛌🛌🛌
Hield 28 mins 28 points - fabulous! 🎉
Moody 17 mins 17 points on 75% (6 for 8) shooting with 83% (5 for 6) from 3!! With solid defense as usual! 🧨🔥
Moody is always ready
You can't make a splash without water 💦💦🏀
i guess okc had to many players to see what they had
NBA is a lot about opportunity
💯💯💯
Splash Buddies!
Splash Quadruplets!
@@warriorsbreakdownthats a splash city 😅
Splash Waters
They need to hold onto waters and heild
Well Buddy is on an insanely cheap contract lol, so definitely yeah
LWIII plays like his dinner depends on it.
Gotta do it if you want a career lol
Buddy Hield should be 6th man!!
The new season has just started...nobody has proven anything yet.All of a sudden this one should start,.that one would should be kept long term...like a bunch of children in here with baby IQ's!
I'm not sure if I said that...all I said was Kerr should definitley involve him in the rotation. Before the season I didn't even do a preview on him
Bro…the thumbnail quote.
I Do Not Care if he actually said “Strap On Me”…why did you use that?
HAHAHAHA! 😂
Great vid nonetheless but I’m just waiting for the jokes.
IKR... I had him pegged as more discerning. 🤣
Lmaooo it was his postgame interview, he legit said "I always got that strap on me". I didn't make it up hahah
ROY if he gets the playing time consistently
ROY for...Waters?? lol
Hield and Waters more than replace Klay
Contract/number wise too...everyone's happy here
just 1 game
Actually it’s not one game he balled in the preseason n hit a game winner, I know it’s preseason but still
True, I know it's small sample size. Not tryna compare but.... first game in he's already had better games than Kuminga and Moody all season lol. We'll see
I will take waters over JK 😎
Lol let's relax here over one game haha
Play with brain
Trade Curry and Wiggs for Wembamyama 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
Lol
Doesn’t add anything to use God’s name in vain.
This sentiment isn't even in most peoples minds, so you're wasting emotional energy on this.
@@Zaque-TV @laurinestate7032 lol...my bad I'll take it back
That's some really good slow mo analysis...👍love it❤️
Appreciate it man! Love the support
