NBA PLAYOFFS THREAD

Gobert hate is (deservedly) back on the menu.

Getting killed on the boards like this is embarrassing.

I don’t think it should take 4-5 years before knowing whether a young player is going to be any good. You should have a sense by the end of Year 2 what they’re going to develop into.

Like, I think it’s clear by now that Jeremy Sochan is going to be a glue-guy role player. He’s not going to be Draymond Green.

And I don’t think Malaki Branham or Blake Wesley are NBA players. If they were, they would have shown something by now.

So if the Spurs go the draft route to build the team, and the picks pan out, the team should be on a pretty clear upward trajectory pretty quickly. If they’re not, and the team is still preaching patience, it means they failed.

Thing is that was Draymond a glue guy with at ude, who got the points and attention he did because Steph and Clay have the gravity of Jupiter and Saturn to pull defenders. A NBA starting quality forward will drain jumpers at a very good rate if he has consistent 3 steps between him and a defender if they are doubling his teammates who are scary good shooters.

Draymond is and was a budget Rodmon you got the defense, and bad at ude, and a decent portion of the rebounding who had a bit more offense because Steph and Clay pulled defenders out more than Pippin and Jordan with less showmanship.

He's 22 and didn't cost 5 FRPs.
Gobert always cries about being underrated and disappears when it matters the most.

Wolves back in this.

Well, I'd Minnesota is the team we need to beat, our construction may need to change. Someone is going to have to defend Ant (castle?) And someone's gonna have to help Wemby with their bigs (Sarr, Clingan?)
