Official 2017 NBA Offseason Thread: Media Days begin

Nobody gonna can guard GS much less a high pnr with Curry and Durant.





However, Cousins exploits the one weakness GS has................................

Yea once they got KD they locked in the GOAT smallball lineup.

No chance at beating them trying to go small.

I just don't know if Bron/Love/Cousins is that frontline trio you want.

The goal is to force them to keep Zaza & Javale out there more often than they want to.

Problem is, you'd have to go at Draymond 1on1 quite often. You'd almost certainly get diminishing returns after a certain point.

The other matchup is Love-Durant, which is much more favorable, but they haven't shown any willingness to consistently post him up.

So, idk. I'd probably hold on to the brooklyn pick.

On offense maybe, but defensively not even close.

Its a offense league anyway.

 

[antidope]

He is better than tristan thats all we need

To do what? Lose to GSW in five at best?

 

[freddy fig]

Pelicans should go after rodney hood

You can't beat GS that way though, especially this Voltron iteration. Boogie would be out of gas 5 minutes into the game anyway.

 

[freddy fig]

Since we face the champs 4 times this season..the nba already knows what that first rd REMATCH from 15 is lookin like yadig

How do you beat golden state then?

How do you beat golden state then?

In a series. You don't. The end. Only chance you have to even make it competitive though is to have multiple defenders on the perimeter that can switch and be able to get stops and pray they have a cold shooting night.

injure durant with a draymond kick

 

[Quincy McCall]

Bron and Cousins would be trouble, I would build around those two and reconstruct the team

Cousins being an emotional lesbian would make that hella' risky tho

So you dont know. Who on warriors can guard cousins in the post?

 

[freddy fig]

U dont trade the best center in the league for garbage and a pick..

[Maximus Meridius]

I'm with them getting Boogie. Slow the game down, beat 'em up in the paint. They soft.

They want shump thats the crazy thing

I just told you. You DON'T beat them in a series. Nothing Cleveland can do or star they could acquire realistically changes that.

Zaza and javale would get bullied by cousins.

 

[B Sox]

Paul George was the player that they needed. They don't need a big man that's going to cry when he doesn't get enough touches and not play a lick of defense.

 

[MVP]

Zaza and javale would get bullied by cousins.

And the Dubs would put him in every pick and roll on the other end forcing him to switch onto Steph or KD and he'd do what he does almost as well as scoring, fouling and/or getting winded and be out of the game. Boogie does absolutely nothing to alleviate some of the pressure of Bron having to guard KD either.

 

[antidope]

I hope it does happen so the Cavs can get washed anyways and everyone who thinks otherwise can watch it happen.

Stringer Bell would have worked as well for them.

 

[freddy fig]

I see the value in havin a good wing defender but giving up a piece in a dominate frontcourt aint worth it to me

 

[freeze]

Dwayne can still dunk. Melo has those struggle dunks

who manz?

 

[freddy fig]

Who doesnt like havin 2 superstars on dey team? Winnin aint easy

 

[B Sox]

Stringer Bell would have worked as well for them.

Agreed. Basically some sort of wing that can make you work on both sides of the ball is what they need. Not Cousins.
