Warriors being this good after their 73-9 dynasty is just not fair.

peak g state is unbeatable

we literally haven't had a chance to see it all season

if they can stay healthy throughout the playoffs (big if), this is going to be free. bucks and suns included.

If the Warriors make it there, Suns will be interesting because I think if Ayton decides to play big he'll be a huge issue. A team that puts their bigs in position to bruise while having good backcourt defense is going to be troublesome for the Dubs.

Also, the nuggets defense is just real bad given fatigue, and their offense ain't great either - the warriors are making them look like Portland and they're not that bad, but they still leave a ton to be desired because they have no warm bodies. Suns are light years ahead on both.

Suns have too many smart, battle-tested roleplayers that work like a well oiled machine. I still think they're the best team in the league, and even with the warriors playing like this, they could come out on top

I know everyone clowns the GSW front office for not taking LaMelo but getting Poole and Kuminga and whatever Wiseman ends up being is still pretty damn good

And if they had LaMelo no way Poole becomes this

what did GP2 do lol?
people talking to him
did he freak out on Bejlica?


Porter's 3 has been kinda gone. Hopefully comes back soon

Poole's price keeps going up by the day.
they'll extend him and when it kicks in at whatever number, wiggins will be gone. So I don't see it changing anything.

does anyone else think wiseman's contract might actually end be more interesting? eh probably not, once wiggins is off the books

The thing is Lamelo still the ++ version of Poole, if he have exposure to play and learn with Steph instead Terry Rozier

I can relate.

Still, Poole is ridiculous and seems poised to be the franchise's face when Klay/Dray/Steph wither away.

With Poole being 22, Kuminga 19, Moody 19, and Wiseman 21 to bat, Warriors have a lot of options to help with the transition. I think Dray and Wiggins could end up odd men out to keep Poole around.

Lol, seriously. I feel for the man with no actual #2 or #3 option.
Like at least we have OG and half a VanVleet to help Siakam out. Jokic straight up willed his team to the playoffs in the West (he'd be sitting comfy in the East).

I don't like him all that much but the dude's MVP.

I feel like there's an odd man out amongst the youngsters mentioned but you don't want people to keep bringing up how Ball was on the board.

Poole is playing out of his mind at the moment. Going to be real interesting to see if his numbers drop in the Away games.

Remember when people thought Turner was getting traded for sure this season?
this season?
I did when all those interviews came out. Thought he would get traded somewhere and they'd keep sabonis

Ayton on offense wouldn't be the big issue. He's really good, but yeah. PHX just being an overall great team with Booker and CP3 and their great defense is bigger
Ayton isn't a superstar big.

i mean his numbers will definitely drop. Especially since he's not the 1st option and shares being the #2 option.

unless he pulls a jamal murray or donovan mitchell and averages 30+ for a playoffs with All Time stats out of nowhere despite not being a superstar. but that was the bubble

i think the Nuggets are done for tonight

They could go on a run if they were more organized as the Warriors are playing sloppy at the moment but I don't think the will is there right now.
