Oh they did just fine for many years without that
Not anymore...Poole is there to stay
None of us know what happens next. Lotta changes probably after this year. Heck they may have a new GM and he may want a new coach even.
Was I disappointed losing in 5 to NY? Definitely but other than that I knew their ceiling was lower than most of the other playoff teams. One more year of a 1st round out and they are probably looking for another coach too.
He’s a better player without Steph on the floor. What they do is redundant and Steph is just better. It seems to me that they’re trying to jam a square peg in a round hole. The young man was wise to take the bag.
Yep. I feel even more confident watching these playoffs that we can say the Heat were regular season underachievers. Additionally, Toronto really fell apart. I think the Hawks underachieved as well seen in them firing their coach midseason. My thing with the Cavs is that just because Mobley can play the 3, I think he becomes a superstar if they play him as a stretch 5. Cavs guys will disagree but I think next year’s lesson in the playoffs will be that they have to choose between Mobley and Allen.
Which thread?
There’s like a 10 point swing in his PPG per 36 with Steph on vs Steph off. And both guys represent a mouse in the house on defense and struggle to guard although I have to give Curry props on his improved defense through the years.
Thanks, I found him and asked him a serious question.
The punch probably didn't help, he may need to not be on a team with Draymond.
That was a tough call based on the huge strides he made last year. You fear if you don’t do it now, it’s even more down the line. Additionally, doing it last summer helped to give them a level of cost certainty as they try and navigate the cap. They slotted a nice cap number for a young player so he would be a piece that can be dealt to maximize what’s left of the Splash Brothers window.
Exactly, that was the reasoning behind the gamble, it just looks like it didn't pay off.
