How is Kuminga only 6'7"? Dude looks like a 6'10" athletic PF out there. Damn.

Not to harp on this for the umpteenth time but I will. One pick away from drafting Curry.. why are the basketball Gods so cruel

He has a wide body and also a pretty short neck. If he had a longer neck, he'd be at 6'8".

In reality he's just somewhere around 6'7" give or take. After a SL game, he was shaking hands with Scottie Barnes and Barnes was clearly an inch or so taller.

Draymond and Wiggins putting the clamps on him

did wiggins come out with foul trouble early in the 3rd?

Draymond is a fantastic defender.

Wiggins first half clamps
Draymond 2nd half clamps

Warriors been top in the league in defense the last 2years because of those two. They got a poor defender in Curry at guard, no rim protection with Looney who can't jump over a phone book but they still sustain excellent defense

All in all, a very satisfying loss for Brooklyn tonight. So many experts declared them the Finals champs before the season began. I hope these experts learn something from this. Steph > KD and Steph never made his team hire a flat-earth lunatic just to get his services. Sheesh.

He has brute strength. Part of me doesn't really believe he's 19. This might be another serge ibaka situation where's he's older than his BC.

While our coach is deathly afraid to go more than a minute without a 7 footer who does nothing on offense for us.

No cruelty. We've always been unwilling to do what it takes in terms of the lottery. We might realize halfway through the team sucks and pivot, but not from the beginning. But tbh, we might have run Curry out of town when he had all those ankle injuries.

Our hope now is that a Curry-level talent chooses to sign with us...*****

It legitimately sounded like a GSW home game tonight. We've been saying the Nets fanbase support is pathetic forever, but it's still incredible how it keeps getting born out at increasingly embarrassing levels. I mean, they literally have a guy considered to be the best player in the league, another one of the greatest scorers in history, and are considered to be title favorites, and they STILL can't avoid this type of crowd issue at home.

This is why I have never said I thought Durant regrets his decision - he clearly didn't want any spotlight or scrutiny, but still wanted the best market. The void in Brooklyn is exactly what he needs.

Between this, letting Caruso go and dealing with Westbrook, LA fans really are on suicide watch

Imagine putting Dame in the same sentence with Steph. Ops, just did it but you get what I mean.
