Wiggins has always been trash.

Yeah, there's more than a few data points there.

It all comes down to individual psychology. Masai and his group seem to be good at finding the mentally tough players. You can bet the Raps had plenty of opportunity to trade for Wiggins over the years.

Just imagine if we had traded DeMar for Wiggins - as so many proposed.

KD's defense looks good too.

Wiseman looks solid for the limited touches he's gotten.

but I think GS needs to tank again. Give Wiseman all the touches, play Curry less minutes. wait for Klay. its obvious Oubre and Wiggins not even equal to Klay in any regard.

Nets are going to be good but this game is more about GS being ass especially on defense.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

this too. too many new parts.

Can't help either with Wiggins with a max contract playing like a g-league player on both offense and defense.

GS's defense is pathetic lol. Nets look good though, KD especially. They have more than enough guys capable of creating their own shot, that's going to be a tough team to defend against.

30 games in or less, they will be trading Oubre to Boston for a TPE and a late 1st to back out on some of that crazy tax bill.

Everything about this game sucks. Terrible commentary, blowout game, no fans audio out of sync, etc.

It's been fun watching KD play again and the Nets do look like a fun team, but that's about it.

Soooo, do you like Curry's cornrolls? It gives him a different look away from his good boy image

I turned a few times over to NBA TV showing Raps vs Hornets preseason replay. It was like JV vs varsity, comparing the 2 games. Not totally fair I know being preseason and no Kyle, but still. But not just Raptors, the Heat, Celtics, Sixers must feel sick now. Bucks may give them a run but everyone else is playing for 2nd place in the east.
There goes my hero. Watch him as he goes.

Warriors really need to consider trading Curry. It’s over. Wiseman looks like he has a chance. Minnesota pick next year, their own next year. Play the young guys, maybe some stupid team will take Draymond. They got a long road back from here. They are miles behind.

Sad thing is, he’s been the 3rd or 4th best player on the floor for the Warriors in this game. Oubre has been worse.
