they're just filler for me
i can't put my finger on what my problem is with James besides the ball being in his hands too much for the talent he has
but Len -- as i said last game, doesn't have the mentality
when he does score or rebound it's more his long body being in the right place at the right time rather than his instincts making things happen
twice tonight i watched him box out for a rebound, but let the ball go to someone else because he didn't lurch forward for it
timing
he doesn't have it

2. They need a big athletic pass first pg that can play defense and be a consistent threat from the outside.
3. They need Chriss and Bender to make the jump next year.
4. Warren has to become a consistent threat from the corner 3.
5. Jackson has to improve by leaps and bounds.
6. They need a second or third option to take all the pressure off Booker every night.
7. They need an excellent head coach with a system that matches the talent on the team.

I'm drinking Reasonably Corrupt from Great Raft. It makes the game much better.

How did it do for the 2nd half? I'm guessing you needed something a little stronger.

When was the last time a championship team had either #1 or #2 on your list here? The last time I saw a team with both it was an all-star game.

You could make the case that Draymond was #1 and #2 for the warriors

You could make the case that there's no such thing as a "dominate center."

You could make the case that there's no such thing as a "dominate center."

You could also make a case that centers are back in vogue again. Nurkic, Jokic, Jordan, Towns, Gobert, Gasol, Adams, Aldridge, Davis, etc.

Some of those guys may be dominant, but there's still no such thing as a "dominate center."

You're right, but you understood what I meant by it.
