I'm going to enjoy Saucey hate-watching the Warriors/Oubre all season. I do actually think he'll be good for them overall. But they just don't have the talent to be a playoff team this year without Klay Thompson.
Lol, I must admit it was like opposite fantasy basketball, watching to see him suck

Do we still think Paul George sucks?

I dont think that is true. Steph is generational, plenty of shooting and wings, they should make the playoffs.

They don’t have the right pieces to run the Ws offense. Wiggins and Oubre are not Warriors.

Kerr is supposed to be a great coach. You adapt.

Adapt? To low IQ selective energy chuckers?

Nah. He won because the team had an identity. The ball movement was incredible. You had high IQ, selfless guys. Like the Suns are trying to build now. Good luck. Guys like Kelly will get you highlight reels and Ls!

The Western Conference is a beast. They'll make the play-in game, but I don't think they're a playoff lock by any means.

I think there is a pretty clear top 7 and the Warriors aren’t in it. They’ll be a dangerous play in team.

They don't defend well, they weren't running any real offense yesterday, and they're relying on a rookie to play a huge role.

The Warriors will be lucky to make the play-in games.

The Houston/Harden situation is obviously a bit extreme. But I think we are bound to see several games canceled in this way after players test positive for COVID. Without a bubble, how successful will the season be?

Sure, it went in.

But that's a bad shot. /PaulGeorgeVoice

Did he revert back to his pre Gonzaga college days? That is ugly

Should've left it broken.

Memphis is really missing JJJ and Crowder. Even with Morant, to live or die with Brooks and Anderson is a shaky strategy.

Some big games tonight:

Rozier dropped 42, but Sexton and Garland had big games and Cleveland got the win.

Ja also dropped 42...Derozan had 28/9/9 and Spurs won though.

RJ Barrett had a real nice game: 26/8/5 but Indy had good games from Sabonis, Brogdon, and Oladipo.

Trae dropped 37/7/6 on 12 shots :shock: I’m not even sure he played the 4th. Only 26 minutes on the night.
