what a ******* loser

 

[pmatic]

Grant Williams thinking he's important enough to cover his mouth.

Okay, maybe he did the smart thing. Just not well enough.

 

[art vandelay]

Can’t wait for Draymond and CP to butt heads and destroy the Warriors like he did with KD and Poole.

Maybe that will happen, maybe it won’t, but before he destroyed chemistry with KD/JP, they won a chip.

Kemba's fall off is pretty wild.

Boston ruined Kemba and IT2

 

[antidope]

Grant Williams zero Rizz

 

[finessence]

Relegate the Hornets

 

[lawdog1]

I am monitoring the Giannis situation as well and believe he is only slightly less likely to be on my next rec league team than he is some of the NBA teams on that list.

 

[Blue Mamba]

Kemba's fall off is pretty wild.

Is it though? He’s a small point guard with bad knees. So unfortunately he gets feasted on defense. And I say that as someone who was always a fan of his.

Boston ruined Kemba and IT2

What did they do to Kemba? He had an all star season with them then he got injured again. His knees were shot by the time he left Charlotte.

Grant Williams zero Rizz

Her body language was on point. Just couldn't close it out

From All-NBA, to signing a max, All-Star Starter, ECF, being a 20+ scorer and playing like 35 mins per game to basically being a journeyman over the course of like 1-2 years and eventually out of the league altogether.

Yeah the falloff was drastic.

 

[storm2006]

IDK man…Grant Williams may be built like a plumber (no disrespect to the plumbers of NT) but he was out here at Michael Rubin’s white party a few months ago and now he’s shooting his shot with Satou Sabally on the sidelines. He’s putting himself in position to make big plays which is more than most can say.

Spoiler

When he takes da shot doe

 

[Mark Antony]

Okay, maybe he did the smart thing. Just not well enough.

Shooters shoot but this seems like an awkward time to do it.

 

[wavycrocket]

Hayward, Rozier and Plumlee as your “Vets” is a problem. Charlote wilding

 

[shotsrangout]

The hornets not gonna do anything about Kai jones?

They don’t got mental health services for that young man ???

 

[moe200069]

Warriors are a play-in team with Steph at full capacity.

It's over.

Klay Washed, Draymond only giving you 6 points a game, No Poole, No KD.

bet. put a $100 on it.

steph plays 60 games and the dubs still end up as a play in team, i’ll run you the money. if dubs make the playoffs, you can send me my shoe funds

 

[wavycrocket]

Sleep on the warriors if you will…

 

[shotsrangout]

Y’all added a 40 year old point guard and Dario Saric….

Good luck

41-41 season incoming

 

[moe200069]

Jordan Poole is gonna average over 25 a game, maybe even close to 30. He will have some big scoring nights.

Be a horrible defender. Like one of the worse in the League.

On a horrible team

And some dudes gonna be in here constantly talking about how the Warriors goofed.

devin booker’s stats

phoenix suns’ record

but we wanna talk about “agendas being pushed.”

Yes, but I also kind of see the vision. Catch her a little off guard, possibly in a extra good mood because of the win. Not a terrible strategy.

His body couldn’t hold up. Kemba used to be super durable

That’s like 76 games per year, for a 5 year stretch for a small guard like him. He could never really get back right. Then the aging starts.

He had an interesting career, because it took him a little longer to actually start being effective/efficient. And when he did, he was hopping. Then he got hurt, and things went downhill fast.

 

[getback]

Yeah injuries suck. You can't hide someone <6' on an NBA court when they're hobbled.

Stuff like this happens more often

**** happens

Exactly Grant Williams jokes aside, It’s not like a this is a yamb he sees at work or in the condo lobby every day. Small window/limited opportunity to get the shot off and he did what he had to do.
