Yep.
I'm laughing that they feel notorious choke artist Doc Rivers is the difference between them winning a championship or not.
Give me his 2007/2008 Celtics roster and I could have won a championship with Thibs as my assistant along with some other decent guys.
Heck he almost blew it twice. Remember, he was up 2-0 on the 37-45 Hawks and the series went 7.

Imagine paying 3 head coaching salaries for one season, then the one you are riding with is doc

a tribe a few hours from near the Columbia just auctioned a big horn sheep hunt....

the winning bid was 250k fucking dollars. Just for the opportunity, no guarantee of success. two hundred and fifty fucking thousand dollars.


Some people just don't live in the same world as the rest of us.

Exactly. As I say too often, "those who can - do, I can't - so I don't"?

lol yea.

It’s just a bummer that age-wise he’s in his prime, or at least should be, yet his stats and production are all down across the bored, and apparently just does not look like that all-star starter on a championship team he recently was

He wasn't an all star starter for any reason other than GS fans show up for fan voting like no other (in my opinion).

Big off-season for the warriors. I think it's highly likely that klay, Wiggins, and draymond could all be elsewhere next year.

They'll likely make a big push to try to build around Steph once again

If Klay wants to stay he will need to take a big pay cut and accept a significantly reduced roll.

And wiggins will likely be traded. Which might be hard, he signed that extension through 2027. So is due about 30 million a season moving forward still, and just hasn't been himself since he missed time last year

Wonder what actually happened with him?

Wiggins is also 28 right now. Should be at his absolute prime. If you beleived the hype he had when he committed to KU, you would think he is dominating the league at a mvp level right now

Yeah but.....

Wemby listed at 7-4 210
Against 76ers and Embiid 33 pts 7 reb
Against Nugs and Jokic 22 and 11
Against Lakers and Davis 30 and 13
Against Kings and Sabonis 27 and 9

Holmgren listed at 7-1 195
Had games of 19-10, 24-6, 17-11 against Jokic and Davis. 33 and 6 against Embiid.

Then again, they probably got owned on the defensive side.
