Who takes 29 shots and 24 of them are 3's, that's a little ridiculous

The NBA has never seen anything like this and may never again. Not since George Mikan has anything so dominant took over the league and the only way to stop it is to literally change the rules.

The Warriors can only beat themselves. (Or the refs and Nike) Steph Curry's range is half court. Even when covered. He gets mauled more than any long range gunner I've ever seen and he's bombing at a video game rate. Green and Durant can both defend the rim, space the floor and defend out in space. Thompson is criminally underrated defensively.

If you stacked them against any historic NBA team, they'd crush them. If you put them up against the first Olympic team, I think it would be a push.

Think about what it take to beat the Warriors when they are actually trying ( sometimes they coast)

You need to have the refs totally fuck them, you need to be 5 deep on above average defensive wings, you need to shoot at a historic rate, you'd need 2 of their core guys to have outlier shitty nights on the floor.

Perhaps you can fill us in on the technology Nike has developed that gave Chris Paul a hamstring injury in game 5 last May.

That's that next-level shit right there.

Pass the crumpets!

I think melo was the icing on the cake for a bad offseason. Lost their defensive coach who was credited for their improvement last year, lost their defensive role players, added a load of players who aren’t good at anything (quite impressive!). Outside of CP3, Harden, Capela, and Gordon they are pretty much trash.

Naw, this is all on Magic Morey. Nice too know that desperation can turn even the biggest so-called geniuses into Isiah Thomas. Anyway, it just so happens that we have a nice 3&D player I'm sure would love to reunite with Melo. He's expiring too. Morey should run them pockets, shake out a second-rounder and give Perry a call lol

I always assumed he'd scored more than that in the past! It's like with John Wall, in my head he's this ball-hogging, great scorer, but who you look at his stats, he's only averaged over 20 points once

Losing Jeff Bzdelik maybe a bigger factor then they counted on.

agreed but their offense took two steps back too. Last year they and GS were in a league of their own

Stockton on Curry
Jordan on Klay
Pippen on KD
Lets go with a 28 year old Karl Malone on Draymond
Lets start with Ewing or Robinson on whoever GS wants to put at center

Oh no!!! They are going small!!!
Drexler, Mullin... to the scorers table.

Yea... its a push

I think we have found K1248's source of Frank hate.

This is not a drill.

I always thought Fox was the best point guard in last year's class. If he only had three-point range...

I am surprised, but the coach has wisely decided that if you have a lighting quick PG, who's strength is his speed, then they'll run a lightening quick offence that really pushes the pace.
