 Kelly is having a rough start to the year scoring the ball. Yikes.
4-24 from the field overall, 0-11 from distance in first two games ...

And they're going to be on the hook for $100 million or so in luxury tax if they don't dump salaries between now and the trade deadline.

140 million I believe...though I’ve heard that’s likely to drop to 70 million due to the BRI expected to be low.

Oubre shot 1-10 and had 3 points in 20 minutes as the Warriors lost by 39 points. After the game Steph said something about how the team's "collective IQ" needs to get much higher.

Everyone but Wiseman was bad...Curry was 6-17, Wiggins was 6-18...they shot 34% as a team and lost by 40. This was much more than Oubre.

They buried a supposedly good Celtics team.

Kyrie and Durant outscored the entire Celtics team 25-23 in third qurtr.

 James freakin' Wiseman. Well done, In2.

I'm so glad he landed in GS. He'll have the best shot at developing there. So far, so good.
I'm not happy that GSW got him if he becomes really good, but thanks. I hope all players not on Phx or potentially play for my Suns suck, haha. A true homer.

A low IQ player? Who would have thought

I don't think anyone is hating on Oubre besides Saucy. Just stating facts about how bad he's been.

I've never had a problem with him other than his opinion of his own abilities. His best role is a 6th man or 4th/5th option in a starting role, ideally making around $10M/year.

Haha, I’ll make an exception for you since you hated him before
