Because Boggy isn't Steph Curry, Buddy is.


None of them are Steph Curry.


You need to get on the phone with Vivek then haha.

I'm not mailing it in, just saying that they aren't going to be a top 3 seed like many seem to think.

I would guess 4-7 seed.

According to Kings management Buddy is

Fox is Westbrook and Bagley is KD

We can revisit after the season. But, does LaVine go number 2 in a redraft?

Embiid and Jokic both were in that draft.

1 and 2 are Jokic and Embiid based on who you prefer

LaVine is clear cut #3 at this point. I hope he has a monster season. Always been a fan of him.

I got him 3rd. A healthy Nurkic would've been in the conversation for me as well. But who knows after injury. Wolves made a mistake in letting LaVine go instead of Wiggins.

stronger defender, has been more impactful at this point, better VORP, BPM, WS/48, while LaVine has been a net negative player virtually his entire career up until this last season...

i also don't think Gordon has been maximized at all in Orlando...hasn't really played with any legit guards at any point and in a crowded front court on top of it.

Really curious if Bagley can keep this play up. 20/11 with 2 blocks and a steal, while also playing legit good defense. Rarely was he out of position, his rotations seem to be on point for the majority of the night. If he can keep this kind of defensive positioning and awareness up, while also showing improvements at the line and gradual improvements from 3, that would be huge for him. Dude looked like a star tonight.

This GSW team will not make playoffs in WC, EC yes they can but not in the West. If Curry will miss some time they right there with trash teams like Grizz, Bobcats, Knix and Wiz. It'll get ugly this year.
