A Wiseman Told Me Never Argue With Fools: Official 2021 Warriors Season Thread

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

So who next Scholastradamas?



But no, who should we be looking at? I like the Oubre trade and I think @Gil Scott-Heroin is right about his versatility being impactful...

Bradley and Holiday would be the ideal pickups to bring some experience to the backcourt. Baynes at the 5, and then whatever of the other forward vets that want to jump on board. I don't mind your mention of Tucker either. Ibaka would be the dream pickup, but that's a long, long, long shot of happening.

I've said it before but Myers should do everything he can to land Baynes. He's basically Bogut who can actually shoot. He's just what the Warriors need to maintain some respectable level of spacing without sacrificing size. He can be that figure to combat any big man in the postseason too.

I'd like Baynes...and maybe that works now...

So we would have 4 centers

baynes wiseman looney Chriss (Smailagic, so 5)

we gotta drop Chriss and smiley tbh

I think Baynes gives a versatility that warrants carrying another center. I want to see Chriss thrive so I hope he sticks around..

If they drop Chriss I can see why. Wiseman and Chriss seems redundant. If they can switch Chriss for Baynes id take it

I like Chriss. Despite his shooting/scoring, he gives the team nearly everything else. He's probably the only one I'd really trust replacing Draymond and handling the same sort of a role on both ends of the floor. I think that's especially important with the lack of playmakers on this team.

“In the humblest way, I felt like I was the best player on my team in high school,” Chriss said in a recent phone interview, “but I love seeing other people be happy. Nobody wants to go out there and watch somebody shoot all the shots. I think when you make a nice pass, for me, it’s kind of cooler than getting a nice dunk,” Chriss said, “just because nobody ever really expects big men to pass.”

But for Chriss, it’s not a matter of hitting certain assist figures. Though playing with all-time shooters like Curry and Klay Thompson for a full season will help his box-score tally, his main goal is to reach the playoffs for the first time in his career.

“I’ve never experienced that environment,” Chriss said, “so I just want to be a part of a winning culture. It doesn’t matter what I have to do or what they want me to do — I’ll do it. So, whether it means trying to average five assists or whether it means averaging 1.9, I’m fine with it.

“However many assists I have to average for us to win.”

Hard to get rid of someone like this.

Y'all wanna see how Wiseman does against bigs with some fluidity and length like maybe an AD go look up Wiseman vs Evan Mobley (Might go top 3 next year)

To see him versus more physical bigs look at wiseman vs Isiah Stewart (went 16th to Pistons) or vs Vernon Carey (went in 2nd round to Hornets)

I'll just say this....I see where the AD and Bosh comps come from.

We finally agree. Solid passer and improved 3 point shooter so spacing for Steph/Wig/Oubre

Don't know if he'd take the MLE or if they should use it on him vs another wing/forward tho

Fair point

I don’t wanna let go of looney cuz he’s really good, and if he’s truly healthy, it’s out of the question

we gotta drop smiley. Why’d we draft him again??

 

[BlaqkSpliffin]

damn we need shooting

Mulder, Poole, and if we can sign that Ryan Taylor dude. They gotta fukking step up

I think Mulder and Mannion end up being the 2-way players. JTA will be in the g-league. Bowman gets cut.

Cause Kirk Lacob was obsessed with him and ran his mouth so much they had to trade a pick to move up and draft him. Nobody was gonna draft him.
