    I can't believe I'm saying this but I hope the Warriors win by 80

    Kevin Durant gets a ring. Maybe Nurk, CJ, and Dame should go play for Warriors too so they can get rings. Harden and Paul too.

    Super stars, stars, role players, rotation bench guys, scrubs.

    Hill was a solid starter role players, which is something every team needs. He was a super star before the injury

    Love that they're wearing hoodies. It's the new NBA look.

    I consider a role player to be a player with one role like three point shooting, rebounding, or defense. Ed Davis is a role player. Korver is a role player. Sefolosha is a role player.

    He's legit but this is such a great class, there are going to be some legit candidates. I agree though, he's probably the favorite.

    You see guys that athletic and lanky now that are a dime a dozen. But back then he was one of a kind. If he had just been healthy he would have been one of the all time greats.

    Not rooting for either, just watching. Hope it's an entertaining game.

    I would say yes, because he is a better defender and a better shooter, and is starting for a much better team. Simmons will beat him in the assists category but that is about it.

    Paul as the secondary ball handler isn't going to work well. Completely minimizes his skillset.

    Man Jaylen Brown had good game, even though his 3 pt shooting sucked.

    That guy is gonna be a player.

    Some of ya'll said he was a scrub earlier this year lol.

    All joking aside (I wouldn't wish an injury on anyone)...the Warriors are so much better than anyone in the league, they could lose Curry or Durant for the whole season and they'd still be odds on favorites.
