Yeah people make fun of Doc, but they've kept afloat with backups while their MVP candidate C and other starters have been out while also dealing with the Ban Simmons drama.

It was a tight game tonight all the way down to the last few minutes. Final score doesn't indicate that.

76ers are a contender. Morey should swallow his pride about "winning" a trade and just make sure to get something in return that can help the team.

I saw a lot of people on here freaking out in the first half when we were losing, but just like as a Raider fan I expect them to lose whenever they are winning, as a Warriors fan I expect them to win even when they are losing. I really feel their whole strategy is to stay within striking distance in the first half and then just go supernova in the third and coast home after that. It must be hard to keep that sort of energy up for 4 full quarters unless it is a big game like the Nets or someone.

yup, but I dont know how many trades are out there that would even help the 6ers at this point. They'll have to wait for someone to get desperate. Their whole gambit of trying to bring Simmons in failed pretty quickly, so I dont think anyone is banging the door down for him right now

But Maxey's emergence should make it easier for them to move him. Get max value from whoever.. SAC and MIN should be prime targets, teams that have talented players who arent elevating their current teams. MIN deal would likely need to be a 3 way unless PHI wants DLo (why though?) but a deal with SAC for Barnes could be interesting

It’s a beautiful game till embiid plays smash mouth ball on offense and clogs the lane on defense. These drives stop.


It's interesting they've only played 2 great bigs so far - 1 game VS Ad and 1 VS Kat. They haven't played a single game against Jokic, Giannis, Embiid, Bam, Rudy, Sabonis, Ayton, Kp, Randle, Jarrett/Mobley....

Their strength of schedule is still among 5 easiest in league. Already had 6/17 games against the absolute gutter of the league (Pelicans without Ingram/Zion, Pistons, Thunder, Rockets, Kings)

and even Sos is inflated

Cavs - no Jarrett or Mobley
Bulls - no Vucevic
Sixers - no Embiid or Tobias
Raptors - no Og

Their schedule so far besides being really weak really favors their playstyle

No one questions Doc in the regular season and ppl make fun of him for his playoff coaching....

It's amazing that a team and player can trigger you by their mere existence as much as they do. :lol:

Nah, his posts overall are embarrassing. I have no idea why a Mavs fan hates the Warriors and Steph as much as he does, they're not even in the rear view mirror and there is no rivalry. Just bizarre.

What can Wiseman net the Dubs to get the team more resilient in the playoffs? I say trade him and go for it, but West is theirs for the taking regardless I feel. Maybe the Suns can challenge them but idk

God, I wished more young players would watch JTA play. The guy never stops the ball, makes quick decisions and never stops moving and he has huge impact despite not having a good jumper. The game can be that simple when you make it so. Yet youngsters spend 99% of their energy on how deep their bag can get.

Maybe more size for better rebounding? But we saw him get pushed around a lot in his rookie season and the Dubs have been rebounding extremely well for a team so undersized.

Trade him for who? Who is available in his salary range that would help the Warriors?

Very unlikely that happens. Lacob is absurdly high on him and wants a path to success after the main crew's prime is over. Same with Kuminga, they really dont' want to sell either based on what they've stated, and even the Bay writers say the same after they've talked to him or Bob.

Warriors team is pretty deep without Wiseman, no sense in trading the future for a player who won't get a ton of minutes and Klay is still set return. I don't see the Dubs trading Wise, Kuminga or Moody.

for who? for what? the only rumors that were ever mentioned were Morey asking for the above plus two future FRP's :lol: and some Siakam trade from John Hollinger, who has no insight, with the above package. I would be shocked if Wiggins and the young guys didn't finish the season on the roster.
