    Just for thee ? of it
    People keep saying he having a bad shooting game. Are yall ? looking at the cleveland D?? These ? was bullying the warriors for 3 quarters last night. Now, instead of staying with that in the fourth, ? shifted to chill mode and allowed GS to get back in the game. Funny thing is, we a LeBron missed jumpshot from having the Cavs up 3-0.

    ? is wild as ? , and truth be told, this will push Bron into the GOAT conversation, as controversial as that may be. Jordan ALWAYS had Pippen. Kobe had Shaq in his prime, then Gasol and a mostly healthy Bynum. LeBron playing with J.R. Smith and two white boys that got hard to pronounce names lol. This ? AVERAGING 40 10 and 8 IN THE FINALS! This might gets wacks and nosigns, but yall ? better start paying attention. ? can't even use the ? excuse of he had to lean on so and so to win anymore


    Dudes copping pleas now. The appeal of curry this season has been his ability to make seemingly impossible 3s while being guarded by multiple people. Now that he's running into a real defense, we suppose to make excuses for him?? Chips ain't easy to win. the reason we cheer for champions is because they do impossible ? under the hardest conditions. Ya ? is getting exposed

    I dont post as much.. But I've been telling ? all season about Golden State.. That three point ? aint gonna work in the playoffs against a good defensive team that has an inside presence.. They got all the way to the finals and ? is coming true. Phil Jackson and Charles Barkley been said it..

    There are many reasons why GS is down in the series. But the top of that List is Lebron James. That dude has his hand wrapped around Golden State's throat b.. He is doing whatever his team needs him to do to bring this thing home..

    From a Knick fan I salute Lebron and hope the Cavs pull this thing out..

    Our improvement has to be mostly internal. We have some solid young players that if they improve could help us big time. Jefferson is versatile and could develop into a Triston Thompson type player. Plumlee needs to work on his game because I would like for him to start next to Lopez. Markel Brown could develop into a solid perimeter defender and spot up shooter. Plus we still have Teletovic and Bojorn. There is talent there we just need these players to improve. We know what we have in Deron, Joe, and Young, but I think Lopez has to take a big step up if we want to be respectable next year.

    How much more you want Lopez to do? He literally carried them dudes on his back towards the end of the season playing out of his mind. What they need to do is cut ties with Deron. I can live with Joe but both of them cant return.

    If we want to compete for the division title or make the playoffs Lopez has to take a step up. If he repeats what he did for the most of last year then we might not make the playoffs. He's our only real chance to compete. Deron and Joe are complimentary players at this stage of their careers. So if we have to depend on them then we're ? . If we can trade Deron I'd be for it. But more than likely he'll be back next year. Him in a secondary role could be a good thing if Lopez steps up.

    Rockets better do something about PG. Still not sold on Llull but apparently he's the first option. Rather trade for Ty Lawson if possible.


    Cosign this. Our number one priority has to be bringing another play maker or some one who can create his own shot

    I would like to see us re-sign Smoove and Brewer but Josh Smith is going to have to leave some money on the table which he said he's willing to do in order to stay in Houston. Jet said he wants to come back but I think we can find somebody else to fill that role, dude isn't guarding anybody at this point and his offense can be replaced

    I'm not sure how healthy DMo is going to be coming off back surgery but if he's healthy it's I think we need to go ahead and trade T Jones while his value is still semi high. The combination of him and the Pelicans pick could possibly be enough to get TY Lawson out of Denver but I don't know what the asking price is yet

    Yeah we on the same page. D-Mo and Josh would be enough at PF. Nuggets might get cute and ask for Capela too if we go that route. What they do with that 18th pick next week will tell me how they're gonna approach the off-season. First time in awhile we won't really be "star chasing"

    Lol

    Most of those are late round picks and 2nd round picks and some of those guys have had better careers then a majority of the lottery picks yall had for 9 straight years. Once again yall should pull the trigger on that trade before yall draft another bust and miss the playoffs for the 10th straight year lls

    You're asking Lopez to be a tier 1 ass player and he just isnt. He has his moments but superstar caliber isn't who is he.

    I'm not saying he has to be tier 1, but he has a ton of potential which still hasn't been realized yet. There is nothing he can't do. Just give us a consistent 20 and 10 with improvement from the young guys plus what we get from Joe, Deron and Thad and we should be competing for the division.

    the maloofs made horrible draft picks plus they were going broke

    And y'all Barely made the playoffs to only get swept by cavs

    But naw Lawson is like 15 n 9 dimes but west is tough,, those Denver Karl teams were gettn bounced out the first round every year

    I'd rather have wcs or mario

    It's a good feeling to finally actually have a core that we're trying to build around and take that next step with because we're really not that far off......

    Brook Lopez definitely has enough talent to be a starting center, no question.
