They look completely beatable.


Not when they shoot 60+% from 3.

West is weak this year. But Phoenix could totally beat them.

This game is absolutely winnable. Just can’t play Beasley.

We are 8 of 38. Game in a nutshell.

Yea its brutal. Our inability to consistently shoot has been our major flaw, we are just so inconsistent with the shooting. We need to do what we can to shore that up, really crazy how bad Beasley, Prince, Dlo have been at points this season when they are all good shooters.

Wide open 3 after wide open 3, night in and night out. This defensive scheme is trash and you should have the balls to admit it. It started good, but it is breakable and every team now knows how to break it.

If the Warriors don't win the title, I'll be disappointed. Everybody thought they were dead the last couple of years, they were just hibernating. The team is highly dangerous.

Lost by 9, but for some reason i'd love to play this team or Utah in round 1, I think it'd be a dope series..especially us getting Bev & DLO back

I will say about Wiggs, I think it's hilarious that he's an all star starter, but i've always liked him during his time here, he was just so inconsistent.

Congrats Wiggs!

I’m sorry I can’t take you seriously when you are trying to use freaking Julius Randle as a defensive anchor. :lol:

Don’t even need to remove Thompson, just Curry. They would be lucky to get to .500

We’re a .500 team as is. Anything more is just icing.
That’s a playoff/play-in team. We’ll get better.
Just moving Beasley (and Prince?) for a competent player will do wonders.
