Which opponent would you guys like to receive rings against next seasons home opener?

Nets?
Memphis?
Phoenix?
Lakers?

I can see the lol’s in all of these options. It’ll probably be some team we dont really care about like Dallas or Clippers or something though.

Based on all the receipts being cashed in, got to be the nets.

Then have playoff wiggs guard durant 94 feet.

I'd go with Houston. Playing lousy on ring night is a thing.

Congrats from a Bucks fan. Just strolling in to say I think it would be incredible for NBA hoops to get a Gianni vs. Steph Finals series potentially next season. The dissimilar styles of play would make for a fascinating match-up. Boston is very good but were clearly not ready for the big stage.

Just curious for your guys' opinion on a potential match-up between the Bucks and Warriors? I think if both teams are healthy they are the two best teams in the NBA, in my opinion. With two superstars who attract the most gravity out of any other stars (for vastly different reasons).

For Bucks fans our concern would be the small-ball lineup that would instantly force Lopez to contest, but I think a Bucks small-ball lineup could be just as deadly with Freak at the 5. My guess is that it would be a steady diet of Looney guarding Gianni with Draymond providing relief (and a bit of Wiggins). Just some fun off-season banter to think about. Cheers, boys.

Memphis for sure. Shaping up to be the next big rivalry

Steph vs Jrue and Giannis vs Draymond matchups would be super fun

It's hard to choose between Lakers and Nets, but either one is A+ stuff. Don't care for Phoenix or Memphis.

Man, I don't care if it's Orlando, just get us another chip. The way I see it, when you win it all you defeated all 29 other teams anyway.

Very excited for next season, but might be more excited for Summer League right now to be honest.

I really want to see Wiseman go to work and show what he's picked up the past 2 seasons.

This Wiseman kid seems to play above the rim a lot more than looney does.

Ha! I just want him to play and be healthy for now. Summer league is usually pretty rough for big men isnt it?

It’s nuts to still be basking in the glory of another title while simultaneously being hyped by so much young talent!

Before the postseason ended I was already telling myself regardless of where the Warriors finish this season, I already know they’ll be better next season.

Even if GSW keeps the same roster, they get better by default simply because they’ll be more experienced, Klay will have that half a season under his belt after missing 2 1/2 years, but mainly the young guys in Poole, Kuminga, Moses ready to take more steps forward while also getting Wiseman back.

Even Wiggins still has more to improve seeing as he’s only like 27 years old. He’s just entering his prime.

How many Champs basically adding 3 lotto pick to the rotation.

Full season on hopefully improved Klay

Poole improves.

Wiggins enters prime.

Curry after down shooting RS
Green All defense
Play reduced min avoid injuries

Totally looking forward to next yr.

i always forget how ridiculous of an athlete Minga is, that speed to power at the rim is just bananas. is he the best pure athlete this franchise has had since? J rich?

gotta work on his hands, screen setting/rolling, decision making and shooting this off season tho, and still not quite sure how he fits in this system long term, but I have much higher hopes for him here than Wise.

Moody fits like a glove tho. just work on that handle, get shots up and try to get more explosiveness in lower body.
