I don't care that the Warriors were without Curry; I still get great pleasure from tonight's score.

Without the tax they still had about 109million plus payroll available. With the tax they still had way more money on the floor than we did. I love that we crushed them, and I love that Standrew Wiggins showed up when it happened.

Of course. But I still don't care.

And tonight is Exhibit A of why Curry is my league MVP.

True, but look at Utah without Gobert. I was reading they went from 5th in defensive ranking to 30th in those 5 games. Likewise when we are missing KAT we aren’t really that competitive. The difference as you likely will point out is that GSW has only lost 12 games and we have lost 22.

Just looked at it. They are complaining about the refs and blaming them for the loss. What makes that so funny and sad is that the refs allowed truckloads of contact against us and were blowing a ton of whistle for them, especially in the first half. They spent so much time swallowing their whistles I worried they might get stuck in their throats. In a properly officiated game we win by between 45-50 and they are saying they got screwed. That is truly funny.

They are a different team without Steph and Dray for sure. Wiggins usually has good games against MIN but in this one (I only saw first half) MIN was free to just double him immediately. He does a lot better when Steph and Dray can spring him free.

We've seen plenty of "1st option Wiggs" here, very depressing. It sucks because you know he can drop 40 without breaking a sweat, but he just doesn't give a damn a lot of times he's relied upon.

He would get up for CLE, TOR, SAC, GSW, LAL and that's about it...rest of the teams it's a coin flip if we're getting aggressive Wiggs or sleepy Wiggs.

He's thriving in a role where his job is clear and he's not expected to be your main scorer, i'm not upset we traded him but im DEAD at the fact that you guys got Kuminga; he's going to be a beast.

Yeah I'm super excited about Kuminga.

With Curry, Green, and Wiseman out they are less than 100M.

Your right I missed Wiseman. That said, with the tax you pay on that 100 (I know the math is funky because of the others didn’t exist you wouldn’t pay any tax at all,) plus the repeater amount it still probably works out to more than our payroll. After all your healthy team costs around 330 mil and ours costs about 137.

Those are easy all star numbers if he could only keep it up.

DLo should be lobbing it off the backboard to Vando in the half court offense.

Not even kidding. From the FT line just like where the were last night.

Jaylen No-L’s continued emergence is going to change the trajectory of this team through his scoring stability and the way his on-ball ability opens up Beasley’s shooting.

Bench mob + top net rating starting 5 = 6th seed

Even tonight with only 7 points he dropped 12 dimes. The dude is finding his inner PG and not a moment too soon.

Gonna be honest, I don’t see Beasley on the team after the deadline. Probably not Prince and maybe not JO. We should also be looking to unload JMAC as filler and give Wright some run. We know he is slightly taller than JMAC and a better defender. Honestly at this point it would take a lot to convince me JMAC deserves any minutes when anyone else who can run PG is healthy.
