This is first year Zubac has actually been give legitimate time. He has improved tremendously this year. IF he can become consistent, he will be a great player

Great?

Pump the brakes....he might become a good player, but great?

^^^This^^^

Zubac has definitely improved, especially on offense. But, imo, his future is still as a backup/spot starter type of player.

He does well against more "traditional bigs" like Adams, because he has improved his athleticism. But I don't think he's ever going to be a guy that is going to do well against more modern NBA bigs. At least not on a consistent basis.

Honestly, he might be good to start next season for 25-27mpg, let McGee walk since he's going to want a bigger deal, and maybe bring back Chandler as Zu's backup for 15mpg in what might be his last season.

That mutherfucker is dead to me..lol

I had to watch the John Wick 3 trailer multiple times to pull me out of my stupor of dismay.

Let me know if/when you go see Glass.

Knicks blow another game against the wizards. I guess us New Yorkers should be happy we got the Nets and that’s not too much better

The ironic thing is Melo probably could have helped them in this streak with Lebron out considering there were quite a few games where the Lakers really struggled to score. But once Lebron comes back, I don't think he helps much at all. He might even hurt them

I got a trivia question for you guys.

Tonight the Warriors sill start 5 players who have been selected to an All-NBA team in their career. (KD, Curry, Cousins, Klay, Green).

There are 3 teams in the league that currently have 3 All-NBA players on their roster. (Most teams have 0 or 1. 10 teams have 2).

Who are those 3 teams? (Its pretty tricky)

I presume it's players that have ever been All NBA not current ones?

That is how Lonzo needs to play.

I don't know.

He played well last night. Don't get me wrong. And he needs to be agreessive. I just think he should be aggressive in different ways.

But I really don't like his shot selection at times. He takes a lot of really deep 3s and pull-ups off the dribble that are pretty difficult. I don't have an answer for the FT%, but I would like to see him be more aggressive driving the ball and not settling for difficult jumpers as often. I think his FG% would be a lot better if he were more selective with the perimeter shots he takes.

Also, given the things he does really well, improving his efficiency at the rim and the FT line is actually more important to his long term success than becoming a good 3 point shooter.

Correct. Any player who has ever been selected to at an All-NBA team

Rockets - Harden, CP3, Melo
Lakers - Lebron, Rondo, Chandler
Spurs - Aldrige, Derozan, Gasol

What do I win?

Going to guess SA (DeRozan, Aldridge, Gasol)
Lakers: LeBron, Rondo and Chandler
And Rockets if you count Melo (technically still on the roster)

The first two that immediately came to mind was the Rockets and Lakers. Spurs took a second for me to think about.
