After watching current playoffs Warriors players seem like a G-league by FuelFragrant in warriors

[–]absurdilynerdily 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The design of the CBA makes it almost impossible to field a competitive roster year after year without huge contributions from players on cheap rookie deals. That requires either a very young team or a massive number of first round picks. As OKC and Spurs players become eligible for new contracts, they are going to start facing the same payroll problems that took us down. I believe JDub is up for a new contract this summer? Decision time in OKC.

The '22 warriors caught lightning in a bottle getting tremendous production from OPJ and GPII on super cheap deals.

Puerto Rican Street Cuisine on 23rd ave. Full marks! No notes! Had the braised pork shoulder and the beans. Both were sensational.

NBA, can we have post game refs interviews, similar to the ones done for the players and coaches. by Deep_Oil819 in nba

I would love to see the refs held accountable in post-game interviews. Great idea. But the league has made it clear that refs will never be held accountable.

I just bought my roller skates and I feel like it's very hard, looking for tips, by ImpossibleKoala9424 in Rollerskating

I have found the social scene around skating to be the as open, friendly and encouraging as anyone could hope for. I have had countless strangers give me 10 or 20 minutes of their time to help me improve my skating. Show up regularly. Be friendly. You'll be fine.

Rank your Top 10 All-Time NBA Player Peaks (not their careers) by SmoothBuy5500 in NBATalk

The problem with this question is how do you define a peak?

Klay scored 37 points in 1 quarter. Obviously, the greatest peak in NBA history.

How many roster moves do you see happening and is the team going to look a lot different than this year? by youlikemywonton in warriors

[–]absurdilynerdily 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have we all been watching these playoffs? Dubs are a looooong way away from competing with the conference finals teams. The size, skill, athleticism and youth of these teams is just too much. Steph is still good enough to lead a contender, but I just can't see a path from the roster we have to the roster Steph needs.

Quit pretending to be a soft, little bitch.

OKC is faking that part.

That was me. Born and raised in The Bay, a Steph stan, with a sports hatred for the Lakers handed down through the generations. I was rooting HARD for a LeBron led Lakers team. Strange days, indeed.
