We here in Philadelphia will give you both Nerlens Noel, Jahlil Okafor, and our first round pick this year for Klay Thompson


:mjgrin:


makes sense for all parties
Klay aint even worth all that
Miami's superteam started out 9-8. GS good brehs
They also didnt win the championship that year :ufdup:

If the Warriors dont win this year, god forbid Bron gets ANOTHER one :merchant:...trust it will most definitely NOT be all good in Golden State.

:mjgrin:

Miami didn't win cause of lebron's choke job. Not to take anything away from the Mavs but if lebron played his usual game, as the "greatest player in the game" at his physical peak going up against the likes of Jason terry and JJ Berea, the heat win in 6. If the Warriors lose this finals it's because the holes they do have like the inside are getting exploited.

There's reasons and excuses for everything

The point is that the whole "the Heat were 8-9 and turned out OK" excuse doesnt apply to the Warriors because I dont think they'll survive not winning it all THIS year. That same core wont all be back if they fail.

When heat were 9-8...they were still a good defensive team...the offence just wasn't clicking



Warriors though straight garbage on defence and can't rebound :scust:

But I thought it was all about the 3 point game these days?

These analytics nerds can all fukk off. I'm loving this right now.

The Cavs are a smallball team :ld: they were actually smaller than the Warriors last year and with the loss of Mozgov they're even smaller this year. Right now the Warriors don't have a center that can defend and it puts a huge strain on Green to cover for everyone else.
Cavs have 3 players that can get 10 rebounds and one of them can defend the rim. They can play small ball but they also can put bigs on the floor.

So far the Warriors need to fix their inside game and their bench needs to get steady. That will come over time. Klay will hit his shots eventually but I think steph will take a step back and do more playmaking like Draymond since KD is a better scoring option. The 3 point shooting we seen last year won't be the same this year

But if klay steph and KD all get on a hot steak :mjcry:

That's what kills me about these Heat comparison

That 2011 Heat team interior D wasn't a concern because Bron/Wade/Chalmers were absolute wolves on the perimeter.

This is true. However, the Heat had the same holes...they were starting Joel Anthony at C. They were basically playing 3 on 5 with him and flabby Bibby out there. Both Steph and KD have been called the "greatest player in the game" in the last 3 years and Draymond is a back to back DPOY runner up. And on top of that you got Klay. They actually have a better set up than those Heat did, as they were able to keep some semblance of their 73 win almost back to back champion squad together. If they lose it will be because those guys didn't play up to their status. People keep saying it's a no brainer to trade Bogut and Barnes for KD, which is true. That also means there is no excuse for them not getting it done.

I don't think they'd have had the money to keep bogut and pay the small forward regardless of who it was. Barnes got a max deal from Dallas. You'd have to be crazy to pay him that.

They had their Bird rights and a cap spike and Steph on a sweetheart deal. Money was not the issue at all. I clearly said they chose the right guy. My point is that you can't roll with the idea AND cop pleas. You pick KD over Barnes, Bogut, Ezeli and whoever else anyday. That also means there is no excuses after making said pick.
