Paul-SGA-Gallo-Adams could be a nice combo if the rest of the team after that wasn't a mess

Lol at the Warriors starting lineup tonight

I for one will have a smirk on my face all season long when I see the Warriors.

That smirk will turn to a grimace once the games start. :lol:

I've tried to watch some of the 1st half of CHA v GSW, it's something else.

Self-punishment?

Man I didn't know Lowry still had it in him to take on this kind of volume. Granted it's very early but he hasn't scored like this in years.

Was in the mood for some college type ball.

And wow the Hornets need to be worried for their future.

It's like somebody dropped a bomb on their roster and those on the floor are the only ones who avoided the explosion.
(it sadly reminds me of the "Chapecoense" tragedy)

Kyle Lowry looks reallly good physically.

Worth every penny of that contract.

Can any of y'all tell if Steph/Dray/Klay are at the Warriors game? I've seen DLo on the bench.

WarriorGM · Post #293 » by **WarriorGM** » Sun Nov 3, 2019 2:17 am

If the Warriors win does it confirm DLo and Green were the reasons they've been bad?

Against Charlotte?

I don't think we will be able to conclude anything from this season. Everyone knew signing Durant was going to hurt the depth of the team moving forward.

Oops wrong thread. I thought this was the daily games thread.

Was being a little facetious. In the earlier losses Green's and DLo's +/- numbers were as bad as the newcomers. Even if Curry was healthy, they needed to start playing like the stars they are thought to be to have had a chance. I was hoping they could get their act together and the Warriors could still make a run for the playoffs if Curry was out only a month. But him out for 3 months killed that hope.

Horford is so good. Really reminds me of CP3/Dray in never taking a possession off mentally. Directing both ends on the court.

ShotCreator · Post #297 » by **ShotCreator** » Sun Nov 3, 2019 4:34 am

Man Philly is even better than I thought. No regression from Horford and their biggest question mark, the bench might be above average.

Raul Neto has quietly been a good two way player for a couple seasons now, O’Quinn is really solid big who isn’t just a rim runner. Very similar to Nene or David West at the end, good passer, screener and defender who can play the pick and pop game.

Ennis has lapses but is one of the highest motor players in the league, and Thybulle came out of nowhere as an all-league type defender.

I don’t even think an injury to any one non-Embiid player would take them out of contending.

This isn't really a reflection of his personality at all. How many superstars would take such a comment lightly? I'd wager for most of them it would be either Dray or them from that moment

GSP · Post #299 » by **GSP** » Sun Nov 3, 2019 9:18 am

lol Draymond really peaced out after Stephs injury. Really weak but not surprising. It was surprising he quit right away tho

And it would apply to most jobs/situations, not just professional basketball.

If your coworkers come out and tell you they don’t need you or want you there or whatever, how motivated would you still be to work there?
