the thin is eventually kyrie will get hurt and will never look this good for the rest of the year. Healthy Kyrie is one of the best offensive players in this league.

If healthy they're the best team in the East, by a pretty wide gap too, nobody else has that kind of offensive talent.

How dare you talk about James "litterally hakeem Olajuwon" Wiseman like that

Really, Curry is holding him back. Warriors gotta get rid of him to unlock Wiseman's true potential as a franchise player.

Kyrie healthy is special...he is never healthy and will eventually get hurt and break down again.

Also he is a nut job.

Wiseman not lighting up preseason basically underscores my primary concern with drafting big guys that cant shoot rn:


since the post up and wing dump is basically eliminated from the game


a lot of the areas where the big guys traditionally "produced" just dont show up anymore in the actual NBA game. So I worried that if the Knicks were to draft Wiseman that he was too dependent on his teammates to produce (lobs, rim running, pnr). It's one of the reasons why I was very down on drafting a guy like Wiseman initially because even though he dominated 6'9 college centers would he see those same opportunities in the NBA against better defenders?

Someone really watched Steph Curry play basketball and said let me pair this dude with Wiseman?
