Well when the guy you built the team around quits it puts the team between a rock and a hard place. 6th man out with a broken hand + Wiggins has missed more games than he's played...

Bron didn't quit. He scored over 20 three times that series and posted a trip dub. He had 1 low scoring game that brought his average down. But you don't lead your team in every category and quit. Riley built a weak squad around his stars. Sounds familiar don't it? :lol:

NBA voting is a joke.. Guy has played at DPOY level for all of 3 weeks and hes now the favorite. :lol:

The old me would have attacked your comprehension but I'm trying to be better.

Polymarket is like Vegas odds, the changes aren't reflective of anything related to NBA voters and it doesn't even pretend to be reflective of any shift in what NBA voters have said or are believed to think.

Because they were told the highest paid coach in the league was the best. Now they're watching him blow 4th quarter leads every game. Can you blame them? Spo is overpaid.
:lol::roflmao2:
Comedy from the team that has a podcaster as a coach.
Comparing a two-time champion to a podcaster that cant win shit with Luka and Bronny....astonishing!!!

That was a horribly constructed roster with 5 players who legitimately had no business being on a NBA roster- certainly a contender- at that point in their lives.
Stfu, I know exactly who u are talking about and it led to actual championships on the court and off the court.

if UD wasn’t in the 03 draft class or a heat all his career he woulda been in the CBA before Isaiah Thomas buried it.

Chalmers simply wasnt an NBA caliber player bro. Duke pedigree got him drafted. He was a PG averaging 3 assists and 7 points. Hitting open shots set up by LeBron isnt justification for him being a starting player. He was out of the league by 30 and year after leaving Bron and Wade.
He went to Kansas and shot a shot over Pooh is the only reason.

And didn’t he try to talk back to Lebron and he almost got thrown accross the arena floor

Anthony was not an NBA caliber player.
Howard has no business on a active roster.
Bibby was cooked.
House was a bum.
Chalmers was trash.
If those cacs and other people can be on the end of teams then so can Howard who earned the right to be on a nba roster. His experience is full of Greatness on the highest level.

Sorry it didn’t work out for you guys

4th quarter apb on the goat
Anyone see him?

JJ did end Tobe's playoff career though. I'll give the white man credit for that. He schooled Kobe so bad Bynum gave him a cheap shot in Game 4 and got suspended the first 2 games the following season. :roflmao:

The rapist would only win one more 1st round series after that before Russell Westbrook closed the book completely in 2012, then lost to Bron. :yes:

Kuminga played 22 minutes and was -18. Worst +/- by far.

Butler and GP2 were the only positive +/-. Big missed opportunity to move closer to that 5th seed. :smh:






I was mostly watching Warriors games with a lot of peace and having fun again since the Jimmy Butler trade. That fun has dissipated since the return of Jonathan Kuminga.

Even in the wins, they've not looked like the team they'd been. I don't think he understands what it takes to be a consistently winning player at this juncture of his career - in fact, he's never been that player to this point. He needs to show a LOT to prove me wrong at this point.

-18 in 21 minutes of play tonight. Who cares about the empty 16 points on 6/14 FG when he's a zero presence on defense? There's just no heart on that end. No utter desire to get stops. No sense of desperation.

Championship-caliber teams don't have critical pieces having games like this off their bench. Sixth men on championship-caliber teams are utterly reliable. Think about what GPII has done in the second half of this season, for example. Think of what Gui Santos had been doing before getting his role stripped and minutes diminished since Kuminga's return. They persistently and consistently make winning plays. Kuminga is all over the map in terms of consistency. The good plays are often negated by the bad ones. That's the definition of a non-contending player.

At this point, I'm resigned to the possibility of Kuminga's presence and the need to play him just because he can score as a key reason why the Warriors are back to being a middle-of-the-pack team rather than one of the best in the league, which they were approaching when Kuminga wasn't playing.

I'm also resigned to the possibility of Warriors coming up well short in the playoffs, provided they can get there at this point - my confidence has waned - because of Kuminga's presence. Butler has made everyone on the Warriors better, except for Kuminga. That should tell you something. Unless he somehow transforms into a completely different player, I'd rather see if Braxton Key is worth giving a playoff rotation to.

Like I said, I wanted to see a transformation, but there's nothing there. I know a player with winning tendencies when I see one. If Kuminga showed championship-caliber tendencies, don't you think I would be thrilled? I would rather he prove me wrong than me being right. I want to be thrilled, but he just hasn't been and isn't that guy and this is now four straight years I've had to speak on this matter. I shouldn't be more excited about Gui Santos than Kuminga, given the talent difference, but that's what it is as of now.

And what do you think vegas and polymarket odds are atleast partially based on you fucking idiot? They dont just arbitrarily pull them out they ass.. They use trends polling data and information sourced from voters.. You're an imbecile. When Welvin gets a top 3 finish id expect you to apologize if i thought you had even a inkling of credibility or integrity.


They callin Spo a cuck. :lol:

Best coach cuck in the league!! :lol: :smh: :lol:
