this golden state team gotta be the best play in team since it started right?

they could be a legit 2nd or 3rd seed if butler played from the beginning

2023 Miami Heat went to the finals and the 2023 Lakers got to the WCF.

I respectfully disagree. Curry is 37 years old yes he can shoot but he doesn't have the step anymore to keep defenses always guessing. Draymond is 35 years old he's not always actively applying pressure on defense anymore. Butler is also 35 and has been through a lot of usage in his Chicago days clearly not the same player. The warriors are right where they are supposed to be a 5 to 8 seed. Their style is meant for the run and gun which you constantly need fresh legs for.

They're just taking advantage of a young inexperienced team who's playing a slow footed 7' 5 ogre trying his best to keep up.

Was driving from work and stuck in some traffic.

Let's take care of business right now and not blow this lead.

To be fair I think they legit felt JK could improve much more than he has. He simply isn’t capable or not putting the work in
Don’t think he can develop into anything here, his play style isn’t what this system wants.

His play style isn't too dissimilar to Jimmy's, except for the fact he's in the early stages of his development and Jimmy's a finished product.
