It’s amazing and I admit I didn’t want him here but boy was I wrong.

He would have helped us immensely.

He would have helped us wins some games to ruin our draft position and then he'd retire. It's still not the long term answer at the position that we need

Yea, he needed to go to a team more ready to win now. Suns were the perfect spot. Even without CP3 they were ready to make a leap....with CP3 an even bigger one

did i ever tell you that you were my favorite ?........hi melo.

and forgot the offense, probably the worst defensive center in the league :rofl2:

Lol I caught some of the second half and Wiseman had a sequence where he had 2 blocks back to back. He doesn’t look as awful as you say he is

Ayton is insane switching onto the perimeter. Was forcing Murray to shoot bricks

he blocks a few shots, so did amare. but ask him to move at all and you're in trouble. that's who he kind of reminds me of on defense. to be honest, i don't think it's even his fault. he can't move laterally.

He would have Rj And Obi looking much Better than they have and that’s more important than lottery position imo.

At least he can protect the rim. Amare couldn’t lol

in general, i expect the warriors to be the worst team in the league. maybe if they were in the east they wouldn't be but out west, they're gonna rack up l's. they allow teams to shoot 45 percent from 3 against them. that is crazy.

i saw one play lillard just drove past him like he wasn't even there. lillard is a great player so no shame in that but i couldn't help but think mitch would have at least had the quickness to contest that shot.
Can't believe people really wanted us to give up Mitch, Obi, and RJ or another first for Bustman.

he looked great yesterday. :bowdown:
hope he gets into the top 10 and gets a ring. that would be so cool.

As for Portland: I think they are a defense oriented backup 5 away from beeing the greatest threat to the lakers. they have firepower ...

really? I don't think so. they will be in the play-in range. curry is rusty to start the season, but his shot will fall more and draymond just played in his first game. Also Oubre won't continue to missfire like he does now.
