Re: ***Around The League 2019-2020 Thread***
Warriors are getting their asses kicked lately. Big LOL for all the people who have bashed good players because they can't will their teams to the playoffs. Curry in an all time GOAT shooter and his team is getting destroyed, why? Because they don't have enough talent. Lebron might be the GOAT and guess what, his Lakers missed the playoffs too. You always have to have a good TEAM. A single player can do a lot but they shouldn't get all the blame for having a trash team.

1000 percent this. I get it to a degree but to totally disregard a playes talents with "EMPTY STATS" is asinine. I'll take some inflation, you can't fake your way to historic numbers.

Looks like Bjelly isn't doing much this season so far. Saric had a great game the other night, his other games have been meh. Looks like Tooliver has still fallen off his cliff. So far I'm really happy with Jake Layman compared to our past essential role forwards we were banking on.

Bobby Portis just crushed the Bulls in the 4th. Its getting brutal on the Bulls fan forums. Early meltdowns.

Watching the Sixers now. Definitely don't want to get in a close game with them. They got a lot of players who can make big plays. Gonna be a good team.

Was watching that game and thinking that Simmons is terrified to attempt to shoot anything outside the paint.

Re: ***Around The League 2019-2020 Thread***
Luke Walton looking like dead man walking right now. He shouldn't worry though, I don't think the Kings brass can handle firing him any time soon. Would make them look like complete morons for doing this again. Luke will probably get time to right the ship. If they are still looking horrible midway though... yikes.

Taj is almost out of the rotation with the knicks and Tyus is his usual self. 20mpg player.

It is more about their teams than Taj and Tyus. MEM and NYK are not playing well, their rosters are not balanced.

Other than rose, i don't think any former wolf is playing well.
Jimmy is hurt.
Ricky is ok.
Tyus is ok.
Tolliver is ok.
Bjelly is ok.
Taj doesnt play.
Lavine and dunn are getting roasted by bulls fans.
On second thought, bazzy might be kicking ass in china.

Teague, Culver, SRP for LaVine, Dunn???
KAT/Vonleh + Dieng
RoCo/Layman
Graham/Okogie
Wiggins/LaVine
Dunn/LaVine/Napier
Dunn as false starter, LaVine to play at PG many minutes
Will it work?

Warriors are getting crushed by the suns.
Kings may fail to win again. Yikes.

Curry has a broken hand. Warriors may be out of the playoff race. Also Russell may be made available for trade before the season ends.

With our sorry ass luck we unload Culver just before the lights go on in His head.

Dlo has actually gotten worse defensively and glad we didn't max him.
As bad as the kings and gsw look, the bulls are on a different level of bad.

At this pace they may not have the luxury to trade Dlo. Someone has to play and they just sank a gazilion into a new building right? Gotta keep selling tickets and merch somehow.
This might be an excellent moment for the Wolves to make a trade for someone not named Dlo, who is as good or better, that isn't locked up for another 5 years at Max. Some team is going to take the new opening in the playoffs now that Warriors won't be going. Who's it gonna be?
