Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
@Malta I'm starting to hate Wiggins at the 3 breh.


He's a matchup problem when he's at the 2, at the 3 he's going against guys that typically outweigh him, are as tall and are stronger than him. The speed & quickness advantage is there, but when he's at the 2 he's taller, quicker, stronger and he can just rise up over almost every 2 guard.

I think the Wolves recognize that he's a 2, but they have to play him at the 3 because their PG can't shoot for shyt and they need Martin there to space the floor. Hopefully they go after a legitimate 3 this summer so they can put Wiggins at his natural position, oh and get rid of Bricky.

That's the main thing I'm noticing is the weight and strength issue. Even someone like Gallo is posting him up and he's gonna struggle cause the weight isn't there. The first matchup against Denver he was eating against Harris in the post.

I think they're gonna keep ricky but it's just going to be an issue with spacing.

Optimistic But I Got Hands Tho
@jaguar paw

I'd imagine Delly, but I guess there'll be a rotation where both of them get minutes. :manny:

My guess


Irving - Shumpert - James - Love - Moz

Delly - Mo - JR - Jefferson - TT

Cunningham - Varejao - Jones will get minutes depending on the match-up.

They'll stagger the minutes of LBJ- Kyrie - Love

I don't think he has the frame to put on weight, he looks like he will max out at around 215lbs at most which isn't enough for the modern 3.


Nah, they were ready to go after Eric Bledsoe last summer, they know Rubio isn't their PG of the future, look at who they've drafted (LaVine/Jones) the writing is on the wall for Rubio.

What a fun game in Boston :wow:

It's really crazy that a team like the Celtics are playing this well. Save me the what will you do in playoffs. For now, lets just enjoy the great basketball. A basketball team succeeding nightly with a top 3 of Bradley/Thomas/Sully? Crowder? Turner?

It's inexcusable for Greg Monroe to be as shytty a defender as he is...ur 25 ur 6-11 250 lbs....how the fukk can you be so soft defensively....he lacks masculinity in the paint...
