NYKs could well be in 6 worst if they lose to Portland.

I still think the Bucks will get better as the season progresses.

makes you'll wonder if we'll ever see the day when our Raptors go around destroying the league and making us fans truly proud. the warriors were terrible for so many years, wasn't theyre streak without a chip like a million years? we'll get there someday.

as for the warriors, how many top 10 and top 5 picks are on that roster?

The Knicks are winning vs the Blazers. This I cannot handle.

Lol @ Pop. No handshake for you.

It all started by drafting Curry who could have almost had in 2009 but he went 6th, Klay went 11th (ithink) Green went 2nd round? They hit on their picks

I think it all turned around with their new owner, the year after Curry got drafted. I remember reading a brilliant article about all the changes the Warriors organization made once Joe Lacob came in and took over.

Warriors owe a lot to Curry's ankles. They let them draft higher than they should have been and then resign players that they might not have wanted to pay out for had Curry's extension been a max one.

They have in 2016: Brooklyn's pick, unprotected. The Dallas pick, top 7 protected. Minnesota's pick, top 12 protected (otherwise it turns into 2 second rounders). Also Philly's second round pick (should be #31).

2017: Pick swap with Brooklyn, unprotected.

2018: Brooklyn's pick again, unprotected again.

They also own a future Memphis first rounder which comes two years after Memphis sends a first rounder to Denver.

As of now, they will have 8 picks in the coming draft, 4 in each round, or 3 firsts and 5 seconds depending on where Minnesota lands.

Warriors don't want to see the Bucks in the finals

Every step is correct. It checks out.

GSW a very good deep team with the best player in the NBA sorry LBJ I remember a pathetic Raptors team beat the Jordon Bulls in a championship year. Are GSW as good as there record "No" they likely should have a couple more loses but they are the class of the league.

Damn, kind of weird seeing Atlanta out of the playoff picture. I know it's very close between all teams and they may very well be the 3rd seed by next week. What's even surprising is they would be the 5th seed in the West. 0_0

Z Bo coming off the bench in Memphis now. I wonder how long before he is unhappy with that situation

Dang, I was hoping OKC would lose that game so we'd be the only team with a perfect week
