KAT had 47/18 with a TS of 76% in a loss to the Knicks last night.

It's almost comical how bad the Kings are. Sooner or later, they need to get rid of the statpadders and rebuild with young, team-oriented players.

Klay had 60 points in only 29 minutes with a TS of 79% against Indy.

GSW had 80pts in a half against a pretty good Pacers defense! NBA should've never allowed that team to be formed.

Jesus! The Warriors are just getting better and better. They seem to have hit their stride now that they have adapted to Durant. They're moving the ball like the Spurs in the Finals against Miami, only the Warriors have way more offensive talent. Look at the highlights of the GSW/LAC game. Nearly every shot by Golden State is a layup, dunk or three pointer:

Watch on YouTube

It's just a clinic.

And if they ever get Javale McGee to play up to his potential, it could get ridiculous. Check out the offensive board he grabs at the 6:57 mark.

Zach Lavine is doing pretty well transitioning to the 2. He is averaging 20 ppg with a TS of 58% and an ORTG of 115.

Minny has the makings of a good starting 5 but their bench sucks, not as bad as ours though.

Wolves up 10 on the cold shooting Warriors going into 4th. Exciting game for young Minnesota team

Warriors have outscored Wolves 30-12 in the 4th, look like they'll take this game, crushing the Wolves youthful optimism like an eggshell

Both LaVine & Wiggins are sh*t defenders though. Which is strange considering their athletic tools and Thibs reputation. Both are decidedly negative players looking at the on/off numbers.

Tim Frazier (a guy I wanted the Wizards to move up from D-League last season) had a triple-double for the Pelicans last night.

The Wolves will give the Warriors FITS if they can possibly be the 8th seed in the West come playoffs.

Recall the Bullets (with Webber/Howard/Cheaney/Strickland/Muresan) vs Bulls playoffs years back.

Nah. The Warriors are too good when they're locked in. They've been winning so easily lately, that they sometimes lose focus.

That game was exciting when the Wolves pulled so far ahead, but really it was much more Warriors cold shooting and not being aggressive on offense than anything the Wolves were doing on defense. Once the Warriors found their rhythm in the 4th, they easily passed the Wolves like they were a D-League team. Still, I could see the Wolves stealing a game from the Warriors in the series, and they might be a really good team in a few years. Lots of talented young players.
