There best defender is Thompson on that team Curry and Durant are just average and Green is to attack him. Now off ball Green is pretty good not straight up. To me I would attack the rim for simple reason no rim proctor. Now Thompson already said he not going have his offense suffer because Durant coming. But i see that his offense if he doesn't get shots to get in his rythem. Just witness his play in the Olympics.
We don't. We take it and ask for another for the next two years. We're Kevin Bacon in Animal House. Our only hope is to wait for Marmalard and Niedermeyer to graduate and become an upperclassman.
I am going to go out on a limb now and predict that GSW doesnt win more than 55 games this next season and they do not take top spot in the WEst. The more I think about it the more my gut tells me this just wont be a good mesh of top players and it will cause them to suffer. My West Prediction: 1) Clippers 62-20 2) SA 60-22 3) GSW 55-27 4) Blazers 52-30 5) Memphis 52-30 (Blazers have tie breaker due to series win) 6) Phoenix 50-32 7) Minni 49-33 8) Houston 49-33 9) Dallas 45-37 10)Sac 42-40 11)NO 41-41 I think the West KILLS the east this year. Also... in the playoffs we will take GSW out in the second round.
Every year, some of you think the Clippps will win the West and you're always wrong. What is your thinking here?
I think its finally thier time, but if you notice, they still dont even break 63 wins in my prediction. I think they win because they wil beat up on the east big time and I honestly think GSW will stumble, and SA isnt what they were last year. I hate the Clippers and personally, they can be at the bottom for the rest of my life, but trying to be impartial, I think this is the year they put it together. stay healthy and dominate. All about health though. Edit...63 wins the west, not 60
Damn! You know what? I missed a team. OKC. This is how it will be... My West Prediction: 1) Clippers 62-20 2) SA 60-22 3) GSW 55-27 4) Blazers 52-30 5) OKC 52-30 (Blazers have the tie breaker) 6) Memphis 51-31 7) Phoenix 50-32 8) Minni 49-33 9) Houston 49-33 10) Dallas 45-37 11) Sac 42-40 12) NO 41-41 13) Utah 33-49 14) Den 29-53 15) LAL 27-55
Draymond has been 1st team All NBA Defense the last two seasons. He's not pretty good, he's elite. No rim proctor/protector??? I would love any Blazer to be averaging 1.5 blocks a game... the 1.5 steals a game would have lead PDX by a mile too. Thompson and Iguadala are also excellent & Durant is above average... in fact his 2015-6 blocks & steals would have led the PTB as well. Basically they're stacked with talent on both ends. STOMP
Just shows that if you want to get in a guys head...kick him in the nuts..you'll own him for the rest of the game and have a high defensive rating
They play a more aggressive defense than us, which results in more steals. Ed Davis probably blocked shots at the same rate as Green too
I never intentionally troll. I screwed that all up. Missed okc in there too. I take it back. We beat them in the WCF.
Then its up to us to pass along this stiflingly positive view that must not die to our future generational Blazer's fans!!!!! I stand shoulder to shoulder with you, my elder brethren, in the war of optimism vs pessimism!!! And there are others like Kingspeed, etc.!!! Soldiers unite!!! We must prevail. we fight the good fight!!!! "I Pity the foo that don't think like you" Man... I love apocalypse IPA from 10 barrel... hahahaha
