"The best ever assembled team has only one less loss than then the worst Spurs team in 20yrs"
I don't care if they have another fools gold road loss against another playoff team, really good teams can get double digit leads and eclipse 41 in a quarter and 67 in the 1st half. Having such a pleathora of dynamic guards makes everything so easy sometimes!
They can either keep pretending or face what's staring them in the face: it's time to continue the march to 6. Everyone including those named Leonard should not be anywhere from close to in play if we're talking trades. The longer they wait, the greater the chance of getting 6, another in Kawhi's prime, and not out of contention.
It's been 2+ seasons of progressive decline, yet here we are, we have the second best record in the league and the Worriers just got bootstomped by Memphis (avoid at all costs). This organization lasts so long and goes so far. You can feel the LoB about to drop from the ceiling. They might as well start gearing themselves to another ring. The inevitable playoff dominant run is coming if we continue to maximize the return of some of the key players while they still are hungry for that chip.
130-101

Gibberish.
Any night we win by almost 30 and GSW loses by 20+ is a good night. Anything can happen and if we can continue to improve and win on the road I'm optimistic.
It comes down to 4 teams this year which is Spurs,Clippers,Cavs,Warriors. None of these 4 teams have been super dominant. None of them are perfect and they all have major flaws that need to be overcome. I feel it will come down to which team has the best chemistry and mental for ude come playoff time.
at stupid GNSF thinking Warriors haven't been dominant. Have you been living under a ing rock? Have you actually watched more than 2 or 3 Warriors games OTHER than when they played us this season?
Legot question, has anyone ever noticed splits ever talking about basketball?
Not really. I don't know if you can even consider this one, but he is talking about winning a chip so I'm good with that.Legot question, has anyone ever noticed splits ever talking about basketball?
Not much..Legot question, has anyone ever noticed splits ever talking about basketball?
I like his sense of humor and his optimism.
This game against BKN was a super easy opponent, but any team with Kawhi in it has chances....
He just has teammates that have been underperforming..
while some guys have been playing very well.
If the underachievers wake the F up.. then they will collectively look very dominant nightly not just against bottom teams.
But they have developed fiber and Kawhi is very encouraging.
We all know the weak links but you get to the playoffs toss a coin and hope that Pop is on top of his game and hungry, etc.
People that don't talk much basketball,Legot question, has anyone ever noticed splits ever talking about basketball?

Chin (started posting when I called him out and he embarrass himself all the time, not a bad person though).
That got with a avi with a guy sitting next to a computer.
One thing they got in common, they all think they are smarter than everyone else but post zero basketball takes because they are scared of getting bumped.
Actually I have watched a lot of their games. I have said a bunch of times they will win 60 plus games but they are a fools gold team. They have no defensive anchor in the paint, no bench, and now play like the old school D'Antoni Suns. Their style of play works during the regular season since the league is filled with a lot of bad teams but it will fails come playoff time.
I think this season will end on a much higher note than the last one. Last season with all those cute little 67 wins and that gaudy pt differential only to flame out on the 2nd round. This season we are getting a lot of wins too but most of them aren't coming easy, I think all this grit and grind is good practice for when the real games begin.
That is what I am hoping.. I am not impressed with this BKN win myself. Their defense was so porous the Austin Toros would have had a good game... (though they would not be able to stop Lopez and thus lose)... but you get the point they were a weak opponent.
I was actually more impressed with a few come back from behind games bc the team doesn't give up and you can see the potential if they played 48 minutes instead of sleepwalking for the first half... (we know the culprits).
They have their weak spots, but so do other teams. Sometimes I am pessimistic bc those weak links can sink you some games (like the Bulls game)... but we shall see.
They have some very old guys TBH... again we shall see. I still think those old guys need to be phased out as much as possible, as much as it pains their respective fan bases... that is when I get pessimistic... but never mind me.
Good take. I couldn't agree more! I definitely feel like we'll end on a "higher note."
Splits feeling the greatness that is on our doorstep. Solid takes. Pops wanting to shorten that rotation already. He's ready, enjoy the ride in from here it's gunna be exciting. The marching band gunna come down our street playing the Larry O'Brien quickstep. I can feel it in my waters.
, you guys are starting to convince me

There's plenty of reason to suggest we have good chances this year. One less gatekeeper in the West with okc out. Our best player matches the Cavs best. Our team is deeper than gsw and clips.
Some of you fools want to blow the team up, but I think this team could be much better in a few months. Losing is the second round of the playoffs isn't nothing. If that's our floor I like the odds.
This thread will be bumped every time there's a repeat of last Thursday night. You've been warned.
Only Danny Crawford can stop us
A ing roller coaster is what this team really is.
The point is that there is a clear strategy for beating them: pound them with inside scoring and rebounding, size, and physical defense. They're an offensive force to behold when firing on all cylinders, yet they have a clear weakness. You couldn't say that the last 2-3 seasons.
With that said, they have 3 guys capable of scoring 60 points in a game, which is ing absurd and unfair. Yet they are beatable. Not only are they beatable; they're liable to get blown out by a team like the Grizzlies if they have an off shooting night.
