    @KiwiMurph @ACT-Crusader

    His last 5 games:

    228 points
    56 rebounds
    51 assists
    12 steals

    That’s 46 / 11 / 10 / 2.4 average

    Shooting 60% from the field and 50% for 3

    @voodoo and the second hottest team in the NBA right now behind the Nets. Wood playing better and Hardaway being streaky good.

      if you want to know how idiotic the average NBA "fan" is check out the All Star voting in the West.

      Lets just say @ACT-Crusader just doesn't have enough big names from a few years ago. And definitely not enough Warriors and Lakers (combined record 37-40)

        There’s a reason why I haven’t bothered debating those ASG predictions. The voting is idiotic.

        All NBA is clearly a much better discussion point (just too far away)

          @voodoo agree on the starting 5s which are basically a popularity contest plus some “informed” views from media/ex players. But the benches give a real indication of value and standing in my view given it’s the coaches that pick them.

              Poor old Stevie is having his worst FT shooting season. Went 3/11 today and the Hack-a-Adams is now a problem. His rebounding is too good for him not to play proper minutes, but come the playoffs he will be benched if he can’t improve

                at what point to we talk about how the Warriors have fallen off a cliff? Is it that the West is a shitfight, and people think they will be able to just pull the trigger come play-offs, because that's looking dicey. They're playing sub-500 ball, can't defend for toffee, and are now 9 games back. They are only two wins in front of the Lakers FFS.

                I don't really believe in any teams out West this year.

                Out east the Celtics v Bucks conference championship series will be epic.

                    @voodoo the whole Poole/Green thing has really hurt this team. The cohesion hasn’t been there and that’s what gets exposed on the road.

                    Plus the rotations have been very different this season. Some pretty funky lineups that Kerr has gone with. Poole is not efficient and when he’s been the floor leader he has made some woeful decisions.

                    Green has been up and down. Wiggins and Steph injuries. Kaminga who looked good early in the season has been in and out of the lineup. They are a 7-10 team at best.

                            @mariner4life the Spurs tank is officially back in full swing. Got done by 38 today against the Clips. They are 2-11 in the month of January. And look at some of the scores they have given up in those losses:

                            L 139 - 103
                            L 117 - 114
                            W 109 - 121
                            L 121 - 116
                            L 121 - 113
                            L 135 - 129
                            L 144 - 113
                            L 132 - 119
                            W 98 - 106
                            L 131 - 126
                            L 147 - 127
                            L 113 - 104
                            L 138 - 100

                                  East goes:

                                  Greek Freak
                                  Tatum

                                  Mitchell

                                  No Embiid!
                                  Someone was going to get unlucky.

                                      Such a great player. But as effective a team cancer as anyone I can remember. Kyrie might be the GOAT of team cancers
