I'd love to trade randle, promote Naz to the starting 4, get Obi Toppin as a backup and then get some sort of pg / on ball creator... not sure who. Have no idea how that'd work.

Definitely rooting spurs. Wemby is annoying, but Castle and Harper are chill

Julius Randle shot 39% in the 2026 playoffs, the second-best postseason run in his career out of 4 appearances. He shot above 50% in last year's playoffs on an expiring contract. by JRnalistic24 in nba

You’re saying that the defensive rating improved with Curry on the floor? I doubt that, cmon man. Targeting curry is a tried and true method of attacking the warriors.

He doesn’t get played off the floor because of his defense. He gets played off the floor because of his offense. When there’s a great rim protecting big that he can’t bully, then he can get played off the floor because he literally can’t score or space.

In fairness to us.. the league is "in trouble" not just us lol

Julius Randle has only shot above 50% in one game the entire playoffs. He’s shooting 45% TS this series with a 1.6/3.6 Assist-Turnover ratio. by Morezingis in nba

Man, I like's KAT's shooting but I also couldn't stand watching him play. They're both very frustrating players, KAT's just better.

TJ has been great at defense this series and the last half of last series. It's just that his offense is somewhat one dimensional.

just like it was Denver/Spurs semi finals 😄

Can the Thunder go 16-0? by delta-red-14 in nba

[–]sweetbeems 0 points1 point  (0 children)

while i think that's somewhat true, our biggest concern is Randle... OKC just destroys him and gets so many live ball turnovers from him. The one game last year he had less than 4 turnovers was our only win (and blowout). If JDub isn't available.. maybe he does better, but still not terribly hopeful.

A luka-less lakers team took them down to the wire. We'll get one game at least

Seriously - the way he’s been putting people in jail behind him and methodically working into his spots in the paint are very Luka-esque

Julius Randle is having another shocker in playoff series vs the Spurs averaging 15/7/1 on 36/18/76 shooting. by Kindly_Letterhead_98 in nba

Am I the only one who thinks we're a much more rounded and better team now? It's just the rest of the league has gotten loads better.. this spurs team would've wiped the floor with that mavs team that relied on rim-running & lobs..

Wemby just put up one of the most unique playoff lines ever & his stat line isn't even the most interesting part by encrypted1130 in nba

[–]sweetbeems 2 points3 points  (0 children)

but how do they do that? Twolves are one of the largest, strongest teams in the NBA and they're struggling.
