Ok this Warriors team is legit scary at the moment. Can't see anyone beating them with Klay back if they continue this pace defensively.

I’d say Harden is just a poor man’s Steph Curry but that would be unfair.

I’ll say he’s a fat man’s Steph Curry and leave it at that.

Go dubs!

The pressure that the Dubs can put on the other team is because they are so deep. They literally played the entire available roster tonight and for the season they have 11-12 players who play at least ten minutes per game.

The Nets' defense is a pretty major issue. Still think I'd pick a healthy Bucks as championship favourites but the Warriors are looking very good.

Warriors in general have always played good basketball that's pleasing on the eye. I don't like them but feck me I like watching them.

leaving Russ to play with Steph was amazing. Leaving Steph to play Kyrie was devastating. I understand why he made every decision
I can definitely understand why he left the Dubs considering his personality & the kind of noises in his last season. I don’t understand the Nets move at all though,he really should have chosen a better franchise. Imagine for a guy as insecure as him to watch the crowd giving Steph MVP chants must be absolutely gut wrenching

Yeah, I agree. Knicks would have been crazy. I think that we wanted to be a Steph and turn Brooklyn into a huge franchise like GSW became. Their value went from hundreds of mills to Billions. KD personality probably made him think if he did that he would be better than Bron because Bron won CAVS their only chip and made them a contender. Again based off his personality I can understand.

Everything happening to KD at the moment is well deserved. No sympathy for him whatsoever.

Which roster had the cap space to sign him and Kyrie in the first place. His options are limited when he wants to team up with his friends and they don't want to take a paycut to team up.

Nothing has happened to him yet.

Kyrie could still get jabbed in time for the playoffs and Harden is slowly getting better. Decent chance they are back to being the favorites.

The Rockets are horrible. It's so hard to tank effectively when you're a competent franchise.

I don't think the plan was to tank this season. There are question marks over Silas as a head coach. I think a rookie coach trying to organise and manage a team full of rookies is a tough combination. The team barely represents an NBA level team right now. The potential talent is there though. They just need to be coached and developed.

Stephen A is a clown. The man loves his own opinion and loves to give conclusions based on 14-15 games
He's paid to give outrageous takes and create attention on social media. He's a damn genius really. Paid millions to talk shit about players.

Here we are doing it for free.

He is not a genius. He does know how to make views for sure which translates into money.
I think there is still a way to do that without exposing your stupidity to the world.

Haha

That time when he got caught switching accounts is one of the most embarrassing episodes I can recall for any sporting figure. Like, what is wrong with you man?!

He was an accomplished journalist before he got on TV.

Kyrie is not getting jabbed. He really is a fanatic, it's not just a stunt.

I don’t think he should ever have gone to Golden State. That was an awful look IMO.
He won 2 titles and got 2 finals MVPs. That's all people will remember.

Maybe when all the people who saw him blow a 3-1 lead against Golden State and then join them are dead. Maybe then that’s all people will remember.

Steph Curry you beauty. Think the back to back took its toll on the Cavs although 4th quarter defense was brilliant.

Nearly blew it but that is one heck of a win. I know the Pistons are not exactly the 96 Bulls but a win without Curry, Green, Iggy and Otto Porter is a damn good one especially on a back to back. Strength in numbers baby! Strength in numbers!

Yeah we are shit this year. Probably squeak into the playoffs as the 7th or 8th seed and lose to the warriors in round 1.
