End of an era?

Steph and klay have a few more good years. They need a major overhaul of the role players though.

Jeremy Lin > Carmelo

Poor Demar Derozan. Not that he could've gotten the same result, but imagine how he feels right now.

 

[UConnStats]

I wouldn't say so. The splash brothers ain't going anywhere, just have to get better pieces around them. You can't just have a team with two guys who can score.

Agreed

And this guy remains a giant tool.

You don't even know what he was clapping to. That could have been when thompson stood up?

Weird thing to be fired up about. And this is coming from a person who thinks drake is massive tool bag

What a question by Doris regarding Kawhi's looking free agency.

Waits wrong with this?

And then asking Kyle about DeMar. Good job

Everything.

 

[Waquoit]

Nice couple of days seeing two first time champs. Those are horrible unis on Toronto, though.

 

[3rdbass]

Waits wrong with this?

Exactly he thought it looked gruesome and then applauded him for getting back up. He was being very respectable as a Toronto fan for great NBA player.

You have a lot of pent-up anger

Not that that’s a revelation to anyone

Angry because I think Drake's a tool? It's a message board homey, don't take things so seriously.

What I’m saying is that your posts exude some deep underlying anger in your psyche. Nobody but you saw what you saw in Drake’s reaction, and this is a great exemplar of the frequent tone of your posts.

Rest assured, I’ve never taken you seriously

Torn acl for Klay, man that sucks.

This is a great exemplar, lol.

You're also a tool but it doesn't make me angry in the slightest.

Favorite player in the league...

Favorite player in the league...

Most underrated player in the league, in a lot of ways I believe he’s more valuable than Curry. Over the last 5 years Klay Thompson has been the most clutch player & I don’t believe it has been even that close. He changed the leagues landscape with his Game 6 performance in OKC, that moment changed everything. I wish him a speedy recovery, he’s a hell of a player!

Warriors need t build depth by hitting on and developing their picks (like bell and Evans, this also means not wasting/ giving them away like CLE and Miami did) and being willing to use the mle and biannual even though the value for the player probably isn’t there thanks to the don’t invest in your product tax.

The effects of 5 straight finals are devastating. No coincidence the previously bulletproof LeBron got injured this year. Warriors need to seriously contemplate taking a year off like LeBron did (but without the crap front office) and re-tool.
I almost always prefer the games, but the first 48hrs of free agency is going to be very interesting.

This Golden State championship lose has to be one of the worst in NBA history. They lost
The series and 2 of their top 3 players to major injuries. Greg Brady in Hawaii level voodoo.

Age and wear and tear catches up with all of us. The Warriors have averaged over an extra 20 games a year for the last 5 years. That is a lot of extra games for Durant, Curry, Thompson, Green, Iguodola, and Livingston, and a lot of those were 40 minute games for the first 4 of that group.

If I was a top tier free agent, I would demand a 30-32 minutes per game cap in my contract, and at least 5 games off during the season. Fatigue is cumulative, and the injury risk spikes when the minutes get really high. Form and body control get weaker with extreme fatigue, and that is when injuries occur. Durant's big injury led to a catastrophic injury that could cost him $100 million and a spot in the history books as one of the greatest of all time. I am sure that Thompson's knee injury was indirectly caused by his hamstring injury.

Kidd would drive me crazy with the way he rode Antetokuomnpo. Budenholzer cut him back 4 mpg, and he was much more effective and he is going to be productive longer. Kerr is OK with his minutes management, although he threw it out the window in the playoffs.
