I wouldn't say CP is a better defender than him, CP gotta do way more on the court than him. Defense is what Bev does. Piss dudes off and make 'em uncomfortable.

yeah man nick young went off and klay went ghost. its gonna come down to the playoffs, and we'll see what they do against a roster that has talent at multiple positions. last year they took advantage of the CBA and were absolutely stacked, this year we'll see. 2016 showed us klay, steph and dray all have the potential to come up small in big moments. KD has definitely proven that in his career.

Chris Paul is for sure a better defender than Patrick Beverly. He's probably still the best pg defender. I started to think he was too going to slip last year and he came out and proved me wrong.
100% deserved that first team nod.

Nick Young was a fantastic addition to the Warriors. He is a GREAT spot up 3pt shooter. Perfect player to bring off their bench and fits right in with their system

Melo barely hit 4 assist one time. Always felt he should been around 8-9 rebs a game as physical as he is. Only hit 8 rebs one time too.

Yeah it's unfair at this point they got Nick off the bench. They squandered that first game, but son still put up 20 with ease off the bench.

THEY have talent at multiple positions.
They're STILL stacked.
Klay and Dray were HUGE in 2016.
Steph struggled and STILL put up good numbers.
You making no sense right now my *****
I honestly have to ask if you're being serious

The hate for melo strong. I've always been a fan. Will take him over Reggie Miller any day. I'll leave it at that.
Reggie Miller is synonymous with regular weed. Says it all for me. Y'all be great. Happy Friday.

This fool averages 24/6/3 but doesn't do anything but score. Not a winner but won on literally every level he's ever played on in his life when he has competent talent around him. He's one of the best rebounders at his position and has always been so but only scores. What

I personally always hated Melo because he's always wanted to be the man rather than wanting to win. However, this is a new chapter and I liked what I saw from Olympic Melo and hoping we will see that here.
And someone mentioned that Melo was never part of a championship team? The 09 Nuggets led by Chauncey was definitely a contender.

I wouldn't put Melo in my top 30, but he's going to go down as one of the best scorers in the history of basketball that could also get you some rebounds and a few assists. Top 50 for sure.

But it's not a CP3 vs Bev thing. Bev is just valuable piece.

The facts are
GS drafted 3/4 top 4 players. That means their scouting departments research paid off, and these dudes devolved into the team they were pre Durant. People should be mad at their GMs for drafting guys like Ricky Rubio, Haseem Thabeet, and Johnny Flynn.
They won 73 games w/o Durant. I guess I understand the hate because only one team can win yearly, but to say they are overrated etc is just plain silly.

Yea both are very pest-like irritating defenders, and if you're gonna let Bev go, Paul is exactly the type of person you want to replace him with. Hated seeing Bev leave, but for Paul, I'm not mad at all. Would have been different if Bev is gone, and you're trying to fill his void with Jeff Teague, Isaiah Canaan, or Raymond Felton

The fact that Melo and Reggie are in the same sentence is pretty damn sad. Reggie doesn't belong in the same stratosphere as Melo.

Bev was my favorite player but he couldn't do what was needed for the Rockets offensively.
Whenever Harden fell apart there was no one but maybe Eric Gordon to go get their own shot.

Le Batard asked the other day if the Heat offered Hassan Whiteside straight up for Nick Young, would GSW do it assuming salaries matched.
I don’t think they would
