"Last nights Warrior game was a perfect example of why I've been saying all off-season that Klay doesn't need to change his game at all with the addition of Durant"

i think someone miiiiiiightve slipped a little LSD in your coffee this morning since those 2 statements are 100% contradictory. PLEASE try and tell me they are not. LOL.

Absolutely nothing in his comment says that the game meant anything.

One year from now:

"Only Lakers, Clippers, Warriors, Spurs, Rockets, Mavericks, Cavs, and Kings fans think Wiggy is bat shit stupid" - Todd AKA Marshmallow Face

I know you can't read this post, but it would be saying something if his own team's fans hate him. Doubt it's going to happen, though.

Think the Nuggets are gonna blow it up?

If so, I'd love the oft-injured Gallo.

Going to be interesting since he could opt out at season's end...Could also be the reason they elected to keep Will Barton.

Dude, Kelly Oubre went beast mode.

Porter better have a breakout Season or this kid could steal his job.

Watching Kelly Oubre last year, I was not impressed at all. Thought he had all the makings of a bust, even being such a young player. But glad to hear he's having a really good training camp and pre-season so far. Porter played well I thought last year, but ideally I think he'll be a guy best served as a 6th man type.

Yea he had a great game. Kelly's gonna steal a lot of minutes this year. Otto better step it up, or he very well could lose his job at some point this season.

The thing that concerns me about the Nuggets would be if Mudiay/Murray have the same backcourt chemistry as Murray/Harris, considering both players are highly touted prospects that are going to need the ball in their hands a lot. Gary Harris has proven he doesn't always need the ball in his hands to be effective. Now that Harris is going to be out at least six weeks, we're going to see early on what these two guys got.

Haven't seen any Nuggets games or read much about them. How is Murray looking so far. I know they were also thinking of experimenting with him a bit at the 1 also. Has he played there at all or is he mostly just on the wings right now?

The Warriors game wasn't televised, so I'll only go off what was reported. Apparently Cousins pretty much had his way against any center the Warriors threw out there. This again is highly troubling and probably going to be needed to be addressed during the season. Bogut for some reason always dominated the matchup when he and Cousins faced off. I mean the Warriors aren't likely to see the Kings in the playoffs, but center matchups will definitely be a problem for this team.

That would be a fun 1-8 matchup. Quick... but fun.

Honestly a Warriors/TWolves 1-8 matchup would be ridiculously fun and seriously challenging to the Warriors. They wouldn't have a way to match up with KAT and both teams could run with each other.
