News Flash: The Golden State Warriors, to me, are not as good as last year's team because of their defense and their bench.

It's set in stone now

He lifted it when KD signed

Don't think that's how curses work though

 

[IATT]

yall read some of these dudes quotes?

http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/...iors-blowout-loss-san-antonio-spurs-slap-face

these dudes really should have just kept it simple "it's 1 game.. it's a long season.. we're not going 82-0"

"it's a building process".. blah blah, cliché cliché

LOLden State.

Keep thinking I'm playing with yall boys.

Let Bron get ring 4. I dare you.

I loved the game last night btw the spurs and golden state. It was good to see a team go at them, but in all honesty I still have them as the number 1 seed in the west.

Maybe this would have been a better idea during the offseason but can we do a NT version of the GM survey? Have a different poll up every day asking rhe same type of questions. I think CP3 was the most hated player a year or two ago. Would like to see who it is now.

-best pg/sg/sf/pf/c
-best overall player
-best rookie
-most washed
-biggest censoredboy
-player you want taking the last shot

Basically the same questions from the gm survey with some NT staples added. We can keep track of it every year and have of visual of when NT officially turns on guys like KD/teams like GSW.

-Edit-

If you guys want I can make a survey for this on surveymonkey
Send me suggestions for questions and I'll include them.

Everybody was crowning the Warriors because they blew the Clippers out in a preseason game. These takes are warranted.

The people that thought they were gonna win 73+ again were killing me. Last year was just a perfect storm. They'll finish #1 in the West but come on.

Or maybe (hopefully) they self distruct. If they keep struggling early on I'll expect Klay to take shots at KD/Management through the media. Green will keep ruining practices and excerise bikes. Kerr will run out of lame jokes to tell. They lose in the postseason. Steph goes to Charlotte, KD goes back to OKC.

Stay Woke.

I peeped UA possibly laying the groundwork for that all slick

damn those shoes ugly af

lookin like the generic joints you get in 2k before you sign a sneaker deal

All the pressure in the world (basketball wise, duh) is on the Warriors. They're going to be pressing big time...there will probably be in-fighting because someone isn't gonna get the same touches...it goes on and on. They have their issues with the rebounding, bench, and as @Osh Kosh Bosh pointed out, their interior defense/rim protection. Due to the circumstances of "who" they signed in free agency, there are a lot of folks out there waiting in the wings for this squad to fail. Having a historic regular season last year, only to come up short was fun to watch. Anyways, I forgot who said it, but it's a completely different situation for Lebron because he has zero pressure going forward, and probably for the rest of his career. Dude will probably average a career low in MPG and ramp it up when the playoffs roll around.

 

[IATT]

dudes didn't take their first L until December 12th last year..

things start going wrong, a lot of dudes going be getting tight

 

[addict4sneakers]

Larry Sanders can't be any worse than Varejao

 

[freeze]

didnt heat lose their 1st game too?

warriors will figure it out. the probability of them getting their heads together is higher than them not. they're all smart bball players.

 

[crazy ebw]

The overreaction is so real

 

[IATT]

Larry Sanders can't be any worse than Varejao

didn't dude walk away from guaranteed money?

pretty sure dude just don't care

 

[Peep Game]

hated the pau signing from the jump. watching him on the bulls the last couple years, hes a 20 minute guy off the bench. doesn't score out of the low post and barely has any foot speed.

iso joe gonna look like the steal of free agency

pau is worse than chris webber at the end of his career

right now

Wow that's bad

Bron said he's chasing Jordan. Bron is heavy on social media.

If his teams get dropped by GSW or whoever over the next several years and he retires with a 3-9 or 3-10 finals record, he won't be able to live with that and social media won't let him ever forget it.

There's plenty of pressure on LeBron. This isn't an MJ situation where he's sitting comfortably on the mountaintop with no rivals.

 

[IATT]

webber could barely move at the end of his career.. shhh was not pretty

pop will find a role for pau, to some degree
