Can't believe the regular season starts tonight. Just seemed like the Finals ended a couple weeks ago.

Philly vs Celtics: 6:30PM CST TNT

GSW vs Lakers: 9:00PM CST TNT

They fall apart whenever he's not on the floor, yeah, and can barely get him rest. Hopefully that means he'll be gassed by the time the 4th Q starts (not that he's good in late and close games as it is).

Wait! I thought you used implying that Curry had the best teammates and that is the reason he has championships.

That applies more in the 4th quarter, yes. Not the rest of the game. Curry thrives when the pressure is off.

Sabonis needs to see the bench. Whenever he tries to score, he turns the ball over.

You said he was fraudulent yet the Dubs don't seem to do well without him.

Warriors do play team basketball and it seems like Curry doesn't have to be the STAR on the team. Unlike some other player you always mention.

They paid all that money to Poole and he has been meh at best

You are conflating different arguments. Steph's titles are fraudulent due to Durant and the various injuries to his opponents. That has nothing to do with him being the primary driver of the success of the Warriors teams (except, of course, when Durant was there).

What the hell are you talking about? Curry is the star of the Warriors and one of the greatest offensive players in history. They wouldn't even be a playoff team without him.

He guards much worse than even Curry and seems to wilt on the road offensively.

Maybe we get a Klay domination game

Easy to dominate when the Kings aren't even properly guarding him on screens. What is Sabonis doing on these sets defensively?

KC_Connection · 04-26-2023, 09:08 PM

Is Monk gonna get a flagrant for running through an illegal moving screen by Curry?

Clay Thompson doesn't look happy. He can be streaky good.

I haven't watched him much prior to this season and he is pretty weak defensively.

Anyway going to crash so hopefully GS doesn't though I know you want them too

Yeah, except the top 10 player in NBA history who won 2 Finals MVPs for the Warriors. Except that guy.
