healthy bron, kyrie and AD with reaves and rui
is a playoff contender

just need to see if jeannie pays
Don't think they can't sign Kyrie unless they renounce Rui and Reeves. Only way it could happen is if they blackmail Cuban into doing a sign and trade with D'Angelo :mjlol:

Well first off shout out to Pelinka for making those trades that salvaged the season.

Doesn't change the overall picture though. We got a few good matchups to get to the WCF but we aren't a top 4 team in the league and are not a contender.

Bron and AD a problem too.

Running it back would be pointless. Dr Buss knew when to let go. Jeanie needs to do the same.

We need to get rid of Pelinka. He is a horrible gm. I don't know why you can't see that. His only good move was getting Rui. The Westbrook trade is overblown. We got better because Russ was a cancer. The players he got back didn't contribute much to our success. The Mo Bamba trade was awful too.
That trade got them to the WCF to be fair. They are just not good enough to beat this Nuggets team. You have a aging Lebron, inconsistent AD, a starting PG who is nowhere to be found this series, and a rookie coach. :manny:

I' m not gonna lie Denver been disrespected since the playoffs start. Everyone that's not a Denver fan wrote them off against Phoenix and was writing them off at the start of this series. It's a reason they're the #1 seed out west and lead wire to wire for season. LA gonna regret not getting a game in Denver, especially game 2. Not sure what Ham can do next game can't double Murray because they got shooters and can't double Jokic because they got shooters. Denver vs Miami in The Finals gonna be good, but a ratings definitely taking a dip because it's not sexy.

All them funny jokes mfs had bout the suns and Lakers a worse team than them :russ:

I told them this too. Suns would have did us just as bad. We can't beat teams with multiple perimeter threats. KD and Booker would have whooped us. They won 2 games because Booker and KD put the team on their back. No one on this team can do that.

GSW was the Lakers finals. They were mentally cooked after that series, especially with playing every other day the last couple of weeks.

And the only reason we won against GS is because Klay absolutely sold after game 2. I don't think we were a better team than the Warriors tbh.

Most you can ask for now is to avoid the sweep at home and then go out on your shield in Game 5 in Denver.
