look who's talking up kuminga now. smh
was just saying we shoulda packaged him a month ago :rolleyes:

we can agree to disagree as far as the comparison. The fact hes taller, more athletic, more explosive and wirier make him a closer comparison to TMac in my opinion

Kuminga also has a better handle, more finesse, and is less brute than Kawhi. Not to mention overall demeanor. Lazy comparison in my opinion. Kuminga is a lot more further along than Kawhi was despite being younger than he was.
I've been praising Kuminga all season you fukk nxgga.

:unimpressed:


Back in November:
Kuminga is an upgraded version of Wiggins.

:wow:
He'll end up being what Wiggins was supposed to be.

:manny:

Your comparison is lazy when his game doesn't resemble T-Mac's in any fashion. If you watch Kawhi during his early years you'll see they have a lot of similarities: they're both raw offensively, so they work off cuts/splits and getting to the rim, and taking advantage of overpowering a smaller defender. That's how Kawhi primarily got his buckets in the Spurs system. It's the same way that Kuminga gets his.

T-Mac could score all over the floor, in every situation, with any type of shot. Kuminga isn't that type of player.

That's exactly how Kuminga got his buckets this season, just in a more athletic/explosive manner. The similarities between them when they back down their matchup in the paint with the baby hooks and up-and-unders are uncanny. Even the post fades, which we've seen from Kuminga from time to time (still a heavy work in progress).

:yawn: you look at tmacs rookie season and you’ll see it’s closer. Youhad to refer to kawhis third year, and even still he was not as polished or quick as Kuminga

But it’s not that serious. i know just like to double down when you’re wrong cause you’re egotistical so i wont go back and forth

The fact you said he’s an upgraded wiggins then compared him to kawhi shows you dont know what you’re talking about. I said the same thing very early in the season that “he will become what wiggins was supposed to “ but Wiggins closer to tmac than kawhi. Pre draft, most people wouldve made that comparison for Wiggins

Not a good look???

Makes sense.

The rest of the league is already probably mad at how deep the Warriors are in the tax. Imagine if they went even further.

Cap hell is real. At some point the core will have to settle for less so the team doesn't need to be blown up.

Wiggins is 100% out when his contract is up. The real question is how they'll find a way to give Poole a bag.

The tough move but the right one is getting rid of Draymond. Poole and Wiggins are more important 2023 and beyond
