WTF the if wrong with the Raptors? They not use to playing in front of a crowd or something?

Re: 1/11 - 1/24 Games Discussion Thread

Jeebs why would they not?

If I’m the Pelicans, OKC, Orlando no. If I’m Golden State and already have Steph, Klay, Dray, Wiggins, yes. Easily yes. Everybody has a window. Golden State can only hope one of those guys could turn out to be as impactful as what they could trade them for within that window. There will be other young 19 year olds to draft down the line when that time is right for them.

I don't know start developing your bench/future? The Warriors are the what? the second best record in the league or first. I wouldn't charge a thing. Maybe if things start falling apart. But currently they looking good [emoji23].

Joel's going for the 30 point team record

This is why I love Van Gundy. He's literally our voices. He sounds as pissed off as I am that this is a blow out

Re: 1/11 - 1/24 Games Discussion Thread

This Cs roster is so bad. There's no space to operate for the Jays. and Horford's play has deteriorated a ton. and Schroeder is doing more harm than good and his addition was great on paper but doesn't work in theory. Romeo and Nesmith are complete zeroes. I dunno even know what Nesmith path is to be a decent NBA player. there's zero shooting, Josh Richardson and Grant Williams are their floor spacer, it explains all their breakdowns in the 4th quarter. people put that wrongly on the Jays. i dunno why brad thought this was gonna work.

on the + Rob Williams looks like a legit dude.

Haha no way that's a foul on Scottie Barnes!!!

Re: 1/11 - 1/24 Games Discussion Thread

That was a scary sequence with Matisse.

Very scary. One of those plays where I flinched when it happened.

Also, think it was Nesmith with the ballsiest take charge when he stood in front of Embid at a full sprint. Not too many players would be willing to do that when the game was where it was

They looked atrocious in the 1st half. Wasn't just that they were missing shots, but they were missing shots baaad.

When Matisse went horizontal in the air, that was a gasp moment. I don't see him playing tomorrow against Miami

Way too many bad turnovers. That was the reason the game got out of hand quick. They were 10-4 quick, then allowed us to finish the quarter on a 28-4 run. Their roster isn't contructed well. I never liked Horford at the 4. When he and Dennis isn't hitting shots, it clogs up the floors. Their depth is below average at best. But I agree, I like Williams.

Is Murray avg a triple double in the last few games?

Re: 1/11 - 1/24 Games Discussion Thread

Man you could make a highlight tape of Mobley defense where he doesn't touch the ball. His mere presence causes problems.

Re: 1/11 - 1/24 Games Discussion Thread

This is the type of game, I'd like to see from Maxey. Where it's nice if the threes are falling, but just the aggression. Too many times, he defaults to the vets, pumps then takes bad floater or contested 2. He has been surprisingly good with keeping his turnovers to a minimum especially for a young guard. That's why, I'm content with him as a PG rather than go after someone like Fox. I rather get an athletic scoring wing

He just needs to put it together. But sadly it probably won’t happen this year

I mean their immediate future should be trying to win championships. Wiseman hasn’t played a game all year, Kuminga averages 10 minutes a game. If you’re telling me right now it wouldn’t be worth it for them to swing those two for a guy like Turner who gives them an instant upgrade at center over Looney (which still makes their bench better by moving Looney to the bench) you’re crazy lol.

Golden State shouldn’t be concerned with who wins a trade 6 years down the road. They should be maximizing their title window. I don’t know that they will entertain a move like that but I think they absolutely should.

Going into the year, he was going to be the 6th man. If it wasn't for Shake being injured, Doc wanted Shake to be the starter because he was the more consistent shooter and offered better defense at that point. Before the stretch of games when Joel was out, I wanted him as the 6th man. But, he played well enough where Doc couldn't take him out the starting lineup.

He's still learning how to be a PG. We don't have a true PG on the team. Both he and Shake has to learn how to balance setting up teammates/facilitating and still being aggressive. That's his current problem. Too many times, it looks like he is thinking "I have to get Joel, Seth, and Tobias going first" instead of getting his at times. Part of is the whole Tobias factor. That's why I'm for moving him to allow others bigger roles. I would love to package him and a 1st for Barnes and Bagley lol
