It would only apply to teams in the lottery.

Right, but the idea was a mid season tournament for all the teams.

Got to have everyone invested somehow.

This still a thing?

Never been a Russ fan, as you well know.

But I have to admit, I am a little excited to see what he is able to bring out of Washington role players.

1 thing I know for sure is that he will improve the culture.

2 questions.

1) Are you now a Russ fan?

2) Did he improve the culture?

 

[DJ]

We have our 1st rounder?

He looked a little off in Game 1. Not that he played poorly but that fuck you down hill aspect of his game was lacking. Maybe it’s the way the Sixers were playing him. I’m not that good at dissecting a game.

These sorts of tournaments are always more important to lower level teams. The top teams are focused on getting a high seed and winning a title.

From what I heard on the radio today they are looking at only a 10 team mid season tourney

That's strange. How would that work?

All teams are put in 3 team pods and they play a home and home in the first half of the season. Winner of each pod advances to the mid season tourney. Each member of winning team get $1M but currently not discussing making it part of playoffs. Also said they are looking seriously at additional tanking rules, including just doing away with the weighted part of the lottery. I don’t think it would do much

@Shanemansj13 but we were the bad guys when we would bring up his scoring lol

Nice to see the Warriors front office agree

Warriors held an intervention to address Draymond Green’s scoring

The Golden State Warriors had a meeting with veteran forward Draymond Green to address the elephant in the room: His scoring or lack thereof.

The amount of money he makes definitely demands more of that. But I'd question whether this would be discussed if klay was 100

Too little, too late. All downhill from here but with Klay coming back no excuses. That is piss poor

This conversation should have happened in October or whenever Klay got injured again

 

[Stakesarehigh]

He only shot 27 from 3 so he would definitely need to find more shots inside. He's shot very well from the stripe also. But only 1 attempt per game

Precisely. A team with Curry, Klay, Wiggins, Wiseman or another piece has Draymond as the 5th option.

All he needs is a little mid range jump shot IMO

Meh, what does that get them? 7 seed and a first round exit? Big whoop.

He really ought to try to add something

 

[bksballer89]

Yep. I don't even need him to avg anything crazy. Get to 11 or 12 PPG and attempt 2-3 more shots per game
