Yeah, but they went 5-0 without AD/Luka since January, hard to expect that it will be flawless. Still on their way for 6-0, that's pretty crazy on its own, contender-level stuff.

They're still pretty shaky against good teams. They're on a streak against very poor teams, but before that they lost convincingly to NY and Minny.


They started the season 11-10, I think.

Lot of positivity since then.

Luka gonna have to do a lot of carrying this season. This offseason is when Rob will have to do some actual work.

I cannot stand Draymond man. How does he get away with putting Hayes in a headlock on a boxout right in front of the ref, no call?

I said this earlier, I hate seeing this Bron has ball, let's all stand there crap.

But that's not even the main problem It's rebounds

Would have loved us to move Maxi or at least a guy like KIeff (useless) or Wood (feels like hes just not coming back or who knows) for a guard

We have a great 9 man group

Guards: Luka, Reaves, Gabe
Forwards: Bron, DFS, Vando, Rui
Bigs: Williams, Hayes

But super thin after:

Milton: Meh
Wood: Hurt
Kleber: Hurt
Kieff: Usless
Bronny: Useless

Got 1 spot left

Currently would sign Jaden Springer or Duarte

If we could waive Kieff, would be nice
