Kuminga and moody are really the swing pieces

I thought they’d both be the goods but it hasn’t panned out so far

Draymond inevitably going to be the swing piece when him and CP0 inevitably butt heads.

 

[WASHED KING]

I can't wait to watch GS flame out this year, y'all have no idea.

Draymond and Cliff butting heads, Steph throwing his mouth piece, Klay counting his fingers on a Wed night game to the Hornets.

Now you add CP3 throwing a tantrum at Looney for not rolling.

I just hope Wiggs, Looney and Dray can find a way out of that cesspool.

Poole got away.

Going to be a wild day at the Crypt. Glad I'll be in attendance.

Finished 6th last year. How'd they get better?

The West 7th seed made the WCF. The Western Conference is wide open sans Denver, and if any team would match up with Denver its GSW. I am not giving it an 80% likelihood, but I wouldnt be suprised.

Naw I asked when, not where

Before preseason, during, or after?

My bad dog tired. Preseason. I do it in conjunction with my preseason picks/homework.

They were 0-3 against Denver last year. Lakers made the WCF because they played like a top 2 team after the deadline. Don't think it's that wide open where just anybody could win

Yea I don't get the notion at all. Denver, Lakers and Phoenix should easily be class of the conference.

The lack of cohesion makes last season an anomaly in terms of how the Dubs perform IMO. That has to count for something. The Westbrook Lakers were in a similar boat. Dissent is a real thing.

If the Dubs flame out this season you won't see me making excuses.

2021-22 Dubs is the real anomaly.

And the cohesion is getting better because they brought in, *checks notes* Chris Paul?

2K not putting the 81 point game in there is just idiotic

There is role confusion entering this season with CP and Kuminga already, I think.

CP is a stubborn butthead who probably thinks he's good enough to start. He didn't sound too open to coming off the bench. With Kuminga, he has flaws in his game, but he has talent and did what was asked of him during the regular season. Kerr keeps jerking him around with his minutes/role.

It's not that, its more the fact that the "Two Timelines" plan is effectively dead with the removal of Jordan Poole. This is a win-now trade, and everyone knows it. It will create a new environment because it always does when win-now trades happen.

 

[B Sox]

Kuminga strikes me as the type of player that just needs to be out there for 25-30+ min in order for him to improve and be an impact guy.

He’s not good enough at anything to really be a specialist type off the bench.

He would’ve already been getting those mins if he were drafted elsewhere.

 

[akajae]

Title. I think its in the cards.

The cards:

 

[dman14]

Heard this story before and #4 was delivered
Just gonna sit back. Don't let us get another one

 

[B Sox]

Pool is a #LowIQ guy, but he did score a good amount of points, and almost just as importantly, played every single game last year.

Don’t really think that’s two things CP can replicate.

It wasn’t really a win now trade

It was a trade based on money and not wanting to pay money
