The Official Off-Season NBA Thread

I still don’t understand the overreaction to Wiseman’s 45 games. To me that is an old school high school big man pick like, Jermaine O’Neal or something. He was always a couple years out. You could say the same for Kuminga. They might not be good but the plan was never for them to be good immediately.

Some people said the Warriors needed to go all in to be contenders again but they got there with smart moves and development. I wouldn’t count out the long term plan yet either.

FWIW I see ALL the potential with Kuminga already even though he’s ultra raw.

it’s always disrespectful when you’re talking to someone and they use their phone in front of you. At the same time it’s not worth being up in arms about

This. It really comes down to situational awareness though IMO. Doing that at home while engaging in a lighthearted conversation can pass but during a press conference is a no go for me.

Having said that, it was his birthday so he should get a pass.

The NBA is gonna be in good hands when Ant is offically the face of the League. Superstar personalty, GOAT talent.

That reporter acts like he doesn’t know Russell Westbrook has a history with the media

Last night was so bad eem had AD in the presser just came out with "We sucked". At least he's honest about it unlike some folks round these parts

Speaking of honesty and Lakers fans....

They finally put PG on there as his numbers have gone down

"KD, Jokic then everybody else" they said.....

Also glad to see they got bummy *** Trezz off of there

Jimmy Goldstein really loves hoop. Pretty sure he's been at all the Clippers games at Staples this season so far too.

I also don't see a move out there that makes sense at the moment.

I'm not in favor of trading potential for "depth" or a fringe all-star type like Siakam. Whoring out for big names who don't make positional sense like Beal or Lillard doesn't seem like the way to go either.

And they don’t know yet exactly what they’re going to get from Klay. If he’s anywhere close to what he was pre-injury, the Warriors actually might have a shot in the West even if they don’t do anything since its not looking so far like there are any great teams. A lot of good ones, but nobody that’s clearly on another tier.

Bryce taller than Bronny

Bryce already taller and supposedly a better shooter than Bronny? Damn…you know the bunnies coming too…

Steph beat Ray Allen’s record with less 3PA too, but it’s the number of seasons for me. Game really changed, we are witnessing the GOAT shooter and potentially scorer overall.

Ayyyyy let’s see what they got was hoping for this news

I've been trying to manage my expectations with Klay so I am curious to hear what others are thinking he'll look like when he comes back.

I don't expect him to be nearly what he was defensively after tearing his left ACL then tearing his right Achilles a little more than a year later. But part of me thinks he can be fine on the offensive end (85%-ish at least) on the offensive end just because of how he got buckets before. I have said it before but my mind goes back to the man scoring 60 points off 11 dribbles

So adding his shooting and gravity to an 11-1 team that is #5 om 3p% and #2 in ORtg seems unreal. Plus while I have doubts about his defense, I don't think he will be a negative and they are already #1 in DRtg by quite a bit. They seem to be very well positioned.

Or he rots on losing teams in Minnesota for 10 years.

I've been interning at the freeze institute of sports performance where we specialise in gait cycles...

Imo Bryce legs too straight..... I don't see a high athletic ceiling for him.

If he had them bow leg jawns it woulda been a wrap.

Have no fear my friend.....

What is there not to understand about wiseman?

he sucks and if the warriors got mobley or barnes this summer they might go 72-10

 

[shotsrangout]

I HATE DUDE but this is swaggy. I’ll give curry this one. It’s just ultimate disrespect to the opponent
