....well, never won a game. Let's see how Luka does. He doesn't exactly have a 2nd all-star with him either.

Still, takes 8 playoff wins to get to the conference finals and we won those 8 games.
 
Hard to root for Warriors with all the bandwagon here. But can't support Texas over California. Guess I have to grit my teeth and cheer for Boston.

I guess the good thing about Boston is, one, Ime Udoka has Portland connections and is a deserving dude. Two, the Celtics and Lakers are tied for most championships....Celtics would break that tie if they win.

I really don't like Kidd or Texas teams either, but I can't root for the Warriors to win yet another fucking championship.

I guess I'm left rooting for Miami, but #heatculture makes me cringe.

Damon Stoudamire is also Ime's assistant fwiw.
 
Green will either shut Doncic down....or cry the whole time about getting called for fouling him. (Or possibly both)

I don’t think they can play Green on Doncic much. Foul trouble would be a huge problem.
Maybe Wiggins?
You can bet in a close game at the end Green will get the job but he can’t be on the bench with 4 fouls most of the second half.
 
Doncic will get injured, be in foul trouble/fouled out, or just won't get the calls he's been getting.

Im not so sure, the NBA loves superstars and market size doesn’t seem to matter too much anymore. We’ll see who is right, but it wouldn’t surprise me if this is the series in which the NBA decides to change horses and starts backing a younger, whiter star/team.

I was thinking that a 6'5 SG is a wing....kind of like Josh Hart is a wing
 
Does it validates that Luka is better than Dame if he win at least one game against the Warriors?

or does it validate that Jason Kidd is a better coach than Terry? Either way, I don't think the Warriors are as good as they have been in the past.
Certainly not when they had Durant.

How about a sign-and-trade?
If I was Phoenix I'd try very hard to get a star point guard, and trade Ayton if necessary. I think that'd be better than ending with with Ayton and Booker as the stars.

Not sure? I did listen to Shaq last night and IMO he made sense. He felt they need to keep both Booker and Ayton and add another third option scoring threat. You can pretty much assume Paul isn't leaving and they will try to build a bit more. They have a solid team. Couple tweaks and they will be just fine.
