Warriors vs Lakers | Pre gm-4 |

This is going be a wild and crazy season!

Strong Foru

What are you talking about? It's not like the FO chose to give him that contract and it's not a team option. They are going to let it run out and probably offer him 18m/year or something.

damn just realized melo and Russ are back together

When do we say enough is enough with Wiggins? I love his ability to defend and be somewhat of a threat on O but it’s in spurts. His bag only contains step backs. I just think it’s been enough time to see that the dude doesn’t really care and he’s not going to be more engaged. I don’t think he actually impacts winning as much as people think and it’s what do we do with that contract? 32 M this year and 34 next year… I say that money goes elsewhere

Ford Carlson

LOL on what you said about Melo. I have seen him say that many times when he rebounds. Just don't think its cz of Russ and Rondo. Great breakdown btw. Excited on this year's squad

Zakir Jaufer

I'm having what Steph is having LOL For real tho. Love seeing the synergy of a generational talent with someone with the mentality, drive, and physical tools to be mentored through direct contact and osmosis. JP + Wiseman + Kuminga + Moody = BRIGHT future.

Raze

For a GOAT level player like lebron, does he have the worst footwork compared to other greats?

Drunkie

Bradley hasn't shown what he can be.. but it might be too late

Athletic Alchemy

gonna have to come up with bench squad nickname!

Athletic Alchemy

yeah he plays like he is idk... 6'7 its crazy

Athletic Alchemy

Kerr bout to flex with his system now

Athletic Alchemy

who do you prefer? A big?

Athletic Alchemy

They way he is doing it.. I legit dont think he can be guarded, the one thing I will say is he has to pace himself. His style uses a lot of energy

Athletic Alchemy

Graham would a been nice! This has a chance to go real sideways... I feel like we are going to hear the Lakers name in every trade rumor this year

Athletic Alchemy

Dwight might be the biggest bully in the L right now.. physically and mentally constantly doing something extra

Athletic Alchemy

right.. we need him to take a leap defensively

Athletic Alchemy

Im excited we are due for one!

Athletic Alchemy

He plays lot bigger than Averey

Athletic Alchemy

starting to get on the early sleep schedule for the all season content

Athletic Alchemy

hope GP gets the spot. He has an intangible on defense and strong in-game awareness. Seems obvious to me that the last spot should be his.

Tyler Durden

I did not know that Nemanja was Euroleague MVP in 2015.

Ivan

This lineup has many of us feeling 2015 nostalgia. Thanks for the breakdown as always alch! You da real MVP.

VacuumUrchin

theres something about GP that bradley doesnt have, the athletic ability to just rise up over bigger guys even after an injury it seemed effortless. i guess we will see what happens vs portland, all i wanna see is mulders lame ass off the roster lmao

SirJezza

Love the senior citizen YMCA vibe we got goin on with Beli, Iggy and Porter lol, really nice balance of young talent and solid vets. VERY hopeful we get to see this roster at 100% this year and into the playoffs.

Raze

I was originally super stoked for the youngesters ala Kuminger and Moody, but seeing the vets make it look EASY has me more excited for the vets: Iggy, Bjelica, and Porter. Bjelica is reminding me of DWest with his passing and veteran savy, but his ability to shoot the three is super impressive. I've also always liked DLee, he knows his role, he plays hard, he shoots the three, and gives his best effort on defense despite his limitations. On a good night he can carry the offense via his shooting, and can help us win games when the stars are struggling. I'm not a fan of the Avery Bradley signing, nor am I a fan of GP2. I just don't see Bradley fitting and I don't see GP2 staying healthy, but what do I know

Kevin Weng

I said this on another post, but I think we have to see Chiozza as a development vet. He's Atkinson's guy on a two-way. I'd expect him to be in the G-league with JK and MM whenever they're go down. With this structure, there will be point guard consistency between the big club and the G-league club to help these guys develop. I might be overthinking it, but if I was going to try to develop rooks as fast as possible, I'd want as much consistency during on court minutes as I could get. Chiozza helps that cause.

Tio

don't think GP2 is eligible for a two-way contract

orion

100%. I was listening to Bill Simmons talking about Beli months ago and how we wanted to see him on a good team who could use him. Looking like that's exactly what we got here With Auto Porter and Andre helping Beli the bench is going to increase leads, not just hold them

Stephen Genest

I'm trying to temper my enthusiasm for this roster, but I can't watching these games. We have such a deep bench of veteran players that fit our system really well. I'm all in on OPJ, Beli, and GP2 and how they fit. I'm not feeling Chiozza. He's too small. We have enough guard and ball handling depth now. I'd put a big on that two-way contract instead of the Cheese. Would love to get Luka Šamanić on a two-way after the Spurs just cut him.

Ryan Koppelman

JP has been very impressive. Very happy for him. Good the organization has stuck with him. Let's see if he can continue to bring it when the regular season starts.

Andrej Krickovic

Don’t know what the hell my Lakers were thinking with this roster. Russ is a downgrade defensively and shooting wise. Was really hoping we could’ve snagged Devonta Graham when the hornets were shopping him, would’ve been a much better fit.

Andrew Bouchotte

Yeah, it looked LA's physicality threw everyone off at first and Howard really got to JTA and Beli. They looked low-key tilted off it. Lots of bullies in the league so they gotta learn from it.. but none as weird and creepy with it as Howard I bet

orion

We are a Center away from contending….i think this is a crucial year for wiseman…it’s unfair for him but it is what it is….we need size and athleticism at the 5…

It's gonna be a fun season for you Alch with lots of content and storylines to cover. i love the way the warriors are moving the ball/passing, each game has something different to be encouraged by hot shooting/high # of steals/JP/GP but always in every game we've gotten beautiful passing and guys playing together to get something really good for a teammate (with zero hero ball).

Steven Stanley

i havent watched it yet but GP2 i like him better. he seems to fit the team better

Tony Stark

Bjelica's cutting to the basket is a thing of beauty.........For god sake at least give GP2 the other two way. If we don't keep him someone will grab him up and we will regret it.....You should make a video of you supplying words for players conversing on the court. It is hilarious the way you do it.
