Who is our fourth best player? 

Post#1 » by ByeByeDre » Thu Oct 26, 2017 6:21 pm

Tobias is our #1
Drummond is our #2
Bradley is our #3

I'm especially excited to get to rankings 5-14, but we'll get there. I'll go 24 hours, first to five, win by two, something like that. Let's see what you think. None of this "When it comes to back hair this guy is better, sharp elbows this guy, I can't decide" nonsense. Don't overthink - this is very simple.

If this board honestly believes Drummond is the second best player on this team, there's no discussion to be had.

Regardless of how you rank them its fairly obvious that RJ, Dre, Bradley and Tobias are our 4 best players. For all of our "depth" nobody else is a clear cut starter. All of which is kinda scary. We have a lot of mediocrity and very flawed players up and down the roster.

Avery Bradley is the only person on our roster that I believe can start for a 50+ win team. Stanley Johnson wouldn't start for a 40 win team.

Galloway... 3 ball CLEAN
Handles... CHECK
P&R game... SOLID
I've been impressed by Reggie having legs again though. It really shows in his defensive range. Edge to Langston despite this.

You must be confusing "Start on a 50+ win team" with "be the best player on a 50+ win team".

You think the Warriors (or virtually any other team that wins 50 this year) don't win 50 with Dre or Tobias starting? :crazy:

So basically you're saying Dre is good for -20 wins compared to Zaza Pachulia :lol:

Zaza plays about ten minutes a game for the Warriors. And, Zaza is considered a good defender. Drummond can rebound, he can't defend an office chair. Kerr would put him in the JaVale McGee role off the bench.

Harris could probably start for the Warriors. Then again, we're talking about a 70 win team that can cover a lot of holes.

The point is if Tobias and Drummond are your 4th and 5th best players, you've probably got a contender, and almost certainly 50 wins. Unfortunately, They're our 1st and 2nd, which is why we are what we are.... :cry:

Replace Stanley and Reggie with top 10 guys at their positions and it's probably a 50 win team pretty easily (especially in the east). Hell, we'll probably end up with 40+ as-is (which would also negate your hypothosis on Stanley).
