Why didn't Draymond just throw up a shot once he got tripped?

Umm no. Livingston is a good role player. We need offense. I'm not sure why you're even comparing the two.

Just wanted to highlight treadmill teams post to laugh at some more.

Bogut #1 overall pick.
Iguodala former max money all star and #9 overall pick.
Barbosa. Former 6th man of the year.
Harrison Barnes. 7th overall pick.
And that's their role players!

Draymond Green. Late steal of the past 5 years.
Stephen Curry. Lotto pick turned 2-time MVP.
Klay Thompson. Top 15 pick and all star.

Building loud like ours.

Hard to beat that.


Opposite to Lebron's Miami and Cleveland teams where bench players are basically scrubs who can hit 3s or injure other players (looking at you Delly). Battier I do respect though. His defensive IQ is pretty good.

He would be a horrible fit in GS. He has no handle or postgame. You need that for GS sets. My guess, he'd be out of the rotation pretty quick.


We'll never know how Ross would have developed on a different team.
