Ty Lue is looking more and more like Dan Byslma every day.
Lue has played Jeff Green 25 mins so far tonight. He has 5 points, 5 turnovers, and is a team worst -18.
I can see Boston winning 2 games against the Warriors.
They can't even consistently score against Ty Lues horrible defensive team. The Warriors will slaughter them.I can see Boston winning 2 games against the Warriors.
I mean it wasn't too long ago that Miami signed the #1, top 5 and a top 10-15 player in one offseason. Not to mention an abundance of quality vets taking paycuts to win championships.Worst news of the playoffs so far.....
Klay Thompson Contract Rumors: Warriors Discussing Long-Term Deal with SG
Potentially taking a massive discount to keep the team no one can/will beat together and also saving the billionaire owners a bunch in luxury tax money. The hope was Klay and/or Draymond leaving or LeBron building another super team to compete with the Warriors and I'm losing that hope now. The Celtics have really impressed and might be ready sooner than we thought so maybe they can do something.

I dont understand the people that were okay with that and are now suddenly against Klay taking a discount.

I'm not against Klay doing anything. If he wants to stay there on a discount then more power to him. I'd just prefer not to see it happen, especially when it's to save billionaires money.
The Warriors have yet to be challenged by anyone since adding Durant to the team.
This is where I get pissed off. Ever since GSW became the undisputed best team, people forget that Miami was the same way when Bron was there. In this day and age, people are so obsessed with rings and winning championships that the only way to win one is with a super team. Back in the 80s and 90s you weren't seen as any less of a player if you failed to win the big one (Barkley, Malone, Ewing etc).
While Boston formed the first big 3 of this era, LeBron was the one who jump started this era. He was the one who put the idea together for stars to force their way via trade or free agency to teams with one or two stars and try to attract other guys there too. People can crap on KD for leaving the Thunder but hes certainly driving the bus in Oakland.
To be fair, he joined them 22 months ago, so we've only had one full season + playoffs with him on the team. Before he got there they went 16-5 and then 16-9 in the playoffs so they were already close to unbeatable.
I really thought Klay would leave when his contract was up. He already has two championships, possibly will have another 2 by next summer - why not leave and get a bigger role elsewhere, get a enormous amount of money and have a better chance at some individual hardware. Nobody would fault him for leaving.
This best describes GS
He's already in the perfect role with GS. If he goes somewhere else he'll play the same role but on a worse team. He's not a Kyrie Irving type, he's the best catch and shoot guy in the league. The Warriors are perfect for him (and vice-versa).
He is capable of being "the guy" on a team.
