The Golden State Warriors are playing their third NBA preseason game on Friday evening against the Detroit Pistons. Looking to stay perfect, Golden State enters this game a perfect 2-0 in preseason after wins over the LA Clippers and Sacramento Kings.
Warriors head coach Steve Kerr went with a different starting lineup for the first two games of preseason, and has again changed his lineup for this game against the Detroit Pistons.
Going with a three-guard small ball lineup, Kerr is starting Steph Curry, Moses Moody, Gary Payton II, Kyle Anderson, and Draymond Green per Anthony Slater of The Athletic.
This is a very small lineup that Warriors fans have have been reacting to on X.
Via @Efeso1001: “This is a lineup where Mo will have an opportunity hope he shines in that 2 guard spot with this spacing tho will be tough….but defense should be excellent”
Via @babyfacedubs: “WHAT AM I WITNESSING RIGHT NOW??? WHAT KIDN IF LINEUP IS THIS”
Via @GS_f0rL1f3: “Moody W but another 3 guard lineup”
Via @chromegsw: “We couldn’t guard sabonis last game so we’re going to go even smaller Kerr is something”
Via @YC_0015: “Experimenting is fine but GP2 and Moody in the starting lineup, very small lineup man”
Via @BobMcMillan8: “Ok this is disgusting lol but at least moody is starting”
The Warriors and Pistons will tip-off at 5:30 PM PT at Chase Center. Kerr explained his reasoning for this lineup before the game:
It will be interesting to see how this small lineup works with three guards and Green at center.
