Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
Can't say we have no rim protection anymore




You don't, McGee has done what the last 4 seasons? Even at his best he wasn't a very good rim protector because he was terrible on defensive rotations and just chased after blocks.

He's in a Ron Adams defense now.....and he's healthy. You'll see the difference. And soon Damian Jones will get acclimated in said defense.

:dead: Just like Kevon Looney would be the best rookie from his draft class?

It doesn't matter whose defense he's on, he doesn't have the basketball IQ to be a good rim protector, he'll get a lot of blocks just because he's tall and athletic but he'll give up a lot of 2nd chance points and hurt the defense because he's out of position chasing blocks.

We shall see. Did I really say Looney would be the best rookie from his draft class? I doubt I said that.

I'm still not sold on him either.....BUT.....I don't think he'll be asked to play too many minutes so I'm hopeful that will help limit our exposure to his nature...

**fingers crossed???!!!**

Now you do know that a team can have 4 max players on a roster right :francis:

Even if KD and Steph agree to sacrifice 5 million each that will be enough to keep both Klay and Dray. No need to create storylines that don't exist breh

No it won't. Only way is if multiple contracts run out at the same time and the team wants to pay the tax. A 5 mil paycut isnt gonna open enough room.

Preseason :russ:

KD and Curry are two of the greatest scorers ever. They're both averaging 25 PPG. Klay's numbers will go down but his efficiency will most likely increase.

if klay isnt getting enough touches he WILL jack up shots as soon as he touches it. he doesnt give a fukk who doesnt like it. right now id say draymond is the one whose numbers will drop......and i think he would actually be the one to low key be disgruntled. he hasnt reached his prime as a scorer and hasnt proven to people what hes capable of on that end, and now its never going to happen. steph, klay, and KD all will jack up shots to get theirs, but draymond doesnt have that type of green light.
