Well this isn't really a hott take if you compare the respective rosters and surrounding noise.

That’s really just a blatant lie…Warriors were mostly the same team last year. Their top 9 in minutes played last year:

1. Wiggins
2. Curry
3. Green
4. Oubre
5. Bazemore
6. Looney
7. Toscano-Anderson
8. Lee
9. Poole

This year:
1. Curry
2. Wiggins
3. Poole
4. Looney
5. Porter Jr.
6. Green
7. Lee
8. Payton Jr.
9. Toscano-Anderson

So they replaced Oubre and Bazemore with Porter Jr. And Payton Jr and gave Poole more minutes. The two g league guys(Toscano-Anderson and Payton) are a bigger part of the rotation this year.

I think questioning why the warriors weren’t that good last year is completely fair.

We also need to stop equating big name players with super team. This Laker squad would have been a super team in 2015, but now it’s 2 stars and a bunch of poor fitting garbage.

I also think LeBron is 100% getting crap for this Laker season. Way more so than Curry got last year.

I know you said you're low-key a big Paul George fan but as he's on the Clippers you keep the fandom muted most of the time

I'm beginning to think you're just as big a LeBron fan bud

Lakers roster having the old guys or not, still not sure how you can definitively say that their squad isn't better than Warriors last year. To say it's a blatant lie is interesting

Wow
Funny thing is KD, Kyrie and Ben might be all playing then

Sorry the lie is that the warriors were a g league squad last year. I’m cool with LeBron getting criticism…just not the comparison that Curry was treated unfairly last year

Ja with just 3 dimes to 5 turnovers but yung fella dropped 46 on the Bulls in a big win

Against Jrue too so this for sure is impressive

Raptors had won 8 of 10 heading into All Star break

Friday lost to Hornets 125 - 93
Saturday lost to Hawks 127 - 100

Anunoby is Out but Geeeez, that's rough back to back efforts

That was great, Shel. Thanks.

I like how he started laughing to himself first but then apologized at the end for interrupting the question.

But also, he's been in Memphis since August and only heard that kind of Tennessee accent now???

Wasn't watching game 1 of the double header but going through my timeline all I was seeing is how tough the Embiid/Harden combo is and everyone commenting/complaining about the free throws.
I really thought it was a blowout going on

So Embiid is winning the MVP I think.

I think the Nets are going to be very...reflective...on their Harden trade come the playoffs...

We’ll see what Simmons gives them…but it’s tough when Harden stops trying…they weren’t getting the good version of Harden…though maybe should have hoped good Harden would show up come playoff time

It's so weird to bail on a superstar just because of a few bad weeks. Why not wait it out at least until the offseason and see if they figure it out? They gave up so many assets to put that Brooklyn team together, and then they just casually discard it when they are all feeling sad for a few days. Gotta laugh about it, though, since they seem less of a threat for the title now.

You guys should wait until Simmons plays. I think that nets team can still be pretty dang good.

Whew lol
