It’s A Splash Bros Reunion! Are You Kuminga To The Poole Party? Warriors 2022 Season Thread

@Gil Scott-Heroin If you're confident Deni > Wise. Ban bet me (permanent ban).

At the end of the season whoever this thread thinks is the better player wins. If Wiseman is as bad as you say should be an easy bet right?

You should just ban yourself now for calling Paschall an All-Star talent.

Are you deflecting or going to accept that bet ?

Do you think I'm some type of fool or some shyt?



"At the end of the season whoever this thread thinks is the better player wins."

First of all, posters in this thread don't watch Wizards games to give an accurate assessment on Deni's play, second of all, most of the posters in this thread will automatically pick Wiseman due to confirmation bias and hopes he'll turn into a player they expect him to be (why would they pick another player on another team?), thirdly, a large portion of posters in this thread don't like me, and will gladly vote for Wiseman if only for the fact to have me banned.

Furthermore, you're not nearly important enough to have a ban bet with.

nikkas in the draft thread had a screen capture talking about "what is this nikka even good at" regarding Kuminga.

A scout said Kuminga had no 'easily identifiable skill' and was raw as fukk. So what exactly were people supposed to think? After seeing how bad and lost Wiseman looked last year that was the last thing I wanted to hear on draft night.

Steph was the best player in the league last year and still missed the playoffs. He's turning 34 this season. Klay is coming off two serious leg injuries. I understand you have to have blind faith at times as a supporter but nikkas now for doubting an 18 year old actual scouts were saying had no identifiable skill ain't it, especially considering how last season ended.

I love what he did defensively against the Bulls. If he continues to develop (Kerr said he'll likely play g-league games throughout the season) then everybody is happy.

But at the time of the pick I still believe people had a legitimate reason to question what the hell was going on.

10-1 too

11-1*

All without Wiseman all up in the videos.

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

Imagine trying to shyt on Turner, and in the same breath hype up Wiseman. The homerism.

We can have a Coliseum wide poll if you're worried about confirmation bias

Gap between Deni and Wiseman is huge from your analysis so it should be an easy w

A permanent ban bet is a layup. Right ?

TheColi doesn't watch Wizards games.



And I wouldn't want you banned, anyway, I'd much rather you stay around so I can let you know that Wiseman won't be shyt on this team. Just like I'm letting you know in every post that you were wrong about Paschall. Every single post where I quote you, I'll add the remember how you thought Paschall had All-Star talent as the signature.

Deni has the highest net-rating out of all the main rotational players; +13.7 dwarfs every other player on the Wizards, except for Trez. That's how much of a positive-impact player he is on a 9-3 team. That's what you call someone who actually contributes to winning. He's not a star or anything, but he's a damn good role player who contributes everywhere on the floor, and his selfless play and willingness to do the dirty work would fit the identity of this team.

Again, I must stress, that doesn't mean the Warriors should've picked him, but they should've used that #2 pick on a player or players that provide that type of impact.

Wiseman is never going to be that for this team.

Dudes were in here crying that you couldn't win with young guys on the team. People were calling for Marcus Smart, Myles Turner, Eric Gordon, etc for our young players

Lets not forget the Ben Simmons trade request some of ya floated

That was a weird requests from the fans and sport media. Warriors have interesting in Ben Simmons was one of the popular basketball discussion during the summer. I'm like the Warriors already have Draymond. Why they add Ben to the roster ? He can't shot for shyt and was the worst free throw shooter last season in the playoffs. shyt doesn't make sense at all.

Because he'd turn them into arguably the greatest defensive team of the modern era, as well as being the most dynamic team in the league.

Ben is essentially a prime Iggy on steroids. Iggy can't shoot, he can't hit free throws, and his offensive game has basically consisted of slashing and providing secondary playmaking, and yet he and Draymond have been essential in one of the best lineups [multiple GS Death lineups] in NBA history. If Iggy and Dray can work, then Ben and Dray can work too. The spacing with Steph, Klay and someone like Otto, to go along with Ben/Dray would be unfair.

You'd have arguably the two best defenders in the league, who can switch onto any player, who are also two of the best playmakers (Ben is top-5) to go with those floor spacers, with all that ball-movement.

Ben would look like an All-NBA First Teamer in this system; he'd have a mismatchup on every offensive possession. He'd thrive next to Steph, as almost every player does. GS would bring out the best version of him.

I don't agree. Iggy make sure he doesn't stray away from the pressure when the ball on his hands. Iggy doesn't exclude himself from the offense when he get send to the free throw line like the way Ben has done in his last playoffs appearance. Ben hasn't shown his capable of being an essential piece in a playoffs run. We have see him shrunk too many times when the pressure is on. He form into a mental midget when the defense sag off him. The Warriors already have Draymond and Iggy. They don't need Ben Simmons. Plus, the Warriors have Wiggins and Kuminga. That's plenty of defense from the wing positions. Kuminga is a steal from the draft. He was outperforming most of his peers in summer camp. I have more faith in him than the 6'10 overrated mental midget.

Honestly don’t sleep on Ben he would fight GS system seemlessly.. Yeah he don’t shoot but the amount of split actions and fake handoffs plus him being another facilitator and a DPOY candidate would make GS dangerous.. Olus when GS get up big on teams Ben will be more comfortable shooting the ball especially being around 2 legit shooting gods..
