yeah, if Bam has never been top 10, Mobley has his work cut out for him.

this fucking guy!

Fox is scary as fuck

Warriors need to figure out their pressure defense response. No Draymond means no dedicated short roll guy and it just didn't work without him.

Steph is still Steph

I feel weird about how safe Chris Paul makes me feel

If the Warriors can get this kind of play from Kuminga & Moody this year, that would be great

none of this is clear, stop pretending like it is.

Steph is in the conversation. Giannis is in the conversation. There's no objective better when you're that good.

Greatest regular season offensive player? Maybe.

Greatest basketball player ever? No.

Top 10 isn’t really about how good you were at your peak, it’s about how long you were good.

Jolie had had 3 historically great seasons in a row, but he's gonna have to do that for another 5-7 years to make top 10. Would anyone really be surprised if he retires before then?

I think the trade value on Poole should have been higher, I don't think he's a significantly worse player than Herro or any of the other high offense, low defense young combo guards in the league, but I think the move was the right one.

It wasn't happening in GS, he needed to be in a new environment and the Warriors needed a different kind of presence to come in for a serious playoff run.
