If somebody has an idea why, Please tell me
...for some reason I want the warriors to win, Not a championship, but maybe get to the finals Out West.

I really dislike Danny green...
Never liked JB that much...more than ok with kerr and Curry

but...why do I want them In the wcf so much?

Jimmy out in GS playing every game and giving effort. That's all he had to do here but refused.

GSW look like they are Finals bound tbh.

Last game he only scored 8 points.

He only played 19 minutes, scored 6 points, 8 boards and 5 assists, 1 steal, no turnovers, +17. I'd take that. If he played a full game those are triple-double numbers.

I don't know but I'm in the same boat. If it can't be us, I'd love to see Curry get another one, and Jimmy get his 1st.

If we trade for Durant, can we please do it right after the regular season is over (or right after we and the Suns get bounced in the first round).

I don't want to go through another 5 months of trade rumours and nobodies on X claiming they have 'sources'. Get this sh(t wrapped up in May and lets focus on the offseason :lol:

If Ware or Jovic put up those numbers, the board would be overflowing with hyperbolic hot takes about how they were going to be All-NBAers next year :lol:

If Bam were a 30 PPG player with an average defense, we'd probably be closer to title. This is why this board keeps debating about how to get a KD or a Trade Young for this team.

Da hell does this even mean?

It means we can't build this team around Bam and I don't think we are not getting KD or Trae Young in the summer. So We need to blow it up and build thru the draft.

Haha, one min, talking about grown men, then next whine about COOKIES!! LMAO
Amazing LeBron keeps in shape with this cookie addiction, lol.
But Riley micromanaging is legendary. That's the thing tho, when you win, you are a genius for what you do. When you lose, you get blamed for the same thing you do. And it's a funny story bu Wade, but if we beat Spurs that year, he stays, at least couple more years.

I wonder how motivated KD may be to spend his twilight years in a familiar city with some familiar faces and a HOF coach. I'm scanning the league for potential suitors and this is a move that just makes sense if he wants it, and we wouldn't have to completely mortgage the future.

Houston is well positioned to make a move for him. They also hold some of the Suns picks. The big one being the 2027 pick. They will also have the massive expiring of Van Vleet who will be more desirable to the Suns who are lacking a PG. Certainly more desirable than Rozier and Duncan.

Durant already planting the seed to the Rockets.

I wonder if GS in the offseason makes another play to get him and if hes more inclined to go back there at that point.
