It was fair to think about it early in the season, he was arguably the worst player in the league in the first 2 months of the season after missing half a season for "reasons". Not during the trade deadline where he had weeks of quality games.

This team is doomed if JK isn't one of our 5 best players.

Eh I’ll take my chances with a curry/bp/wigs/opj/dray lineup to close.

Not yet. It could just be elite rim protection where he's not effective. So teams like the Lakers, Wolves out west where he will struggle.

That's a second round exit at best. But it's not just this season, going forward, we're so screwed if JK isn't looking like a good trade chip. :lol:

Even then, it made no sense to basically salary dump Wiggins. The right choice was always to bet on the idea that he would eventually regain his form.

Hopefully we don't see any more Saric. Play Gui Santos.

Ball moves faster than players. Podz moves faster than ball.

I LOVE seeing Draymond have this much fun on the court. We're a totally different team when he does.

Opj solves a lot of issues for us. He’s a good rebounder. Solid defender and an excellent shooter. And he’s taller than 6’5”

He makes quick decisions, he can play out of the corner, he has an INSANE midrange game.

Wiggins is underrated as a screen navigator.

Kuminga's playing well. He's coming along fine. He's playing withing the flow of the game, not forcing anything, taking what's given to him. It's all part of the process. Future star. Career Warrior hopefully. The doom and gloom about him on this board is pure foolishness.
