He also had a huge finish in the 4th against the Suns 2 nights ago.
The kid is special, let’s hope his body holds up

Waaaay too early in the season for any real takes, but that's boring. Based on 10% of the season (where most teams are still rubbing sleep from their eyes)
Nuggets back to back
Sixers and Celtics will battle it out to be the team to lose to them.Giannis is cooked
The Clipps trading for Harden was the worst trade of all time.Wemby is special. He's a rookie still doing rookie things, but he's already a player teams are thinking about on the defensive end, and he's scoring despite the shocking level of service he's getting out the of the Spurs "guards".
At the other end of careers, the Warriors are in a pickle. They are old. Steph Curry is hard carrying them. Klay Thompson has completely fallen in a hole, but a guy like that, who means that much to the franchise, you can't dick around. So they are sort of stuck starting him. I think i read a stat that, while Curry is averaging 30, no other Warrior has scored 20 in a game. Hard carry.

oh, and for NBA punting
take any Pacers game and bet the overs for total points. Only once all season has one of their games had less than 235 points, most are over 250. Can score. Can't defend.

I'm not a big +/- guy, but sometimes you just can't ignore it...
-
That's a big number
-
Warriors game
Steph Curry 38 points
Next is Klay with 16.
Warriors down by 6 -
Nuggets lose to the Rockets. Without Murray to play with the bench guys, they are getting pumped when Joker sits.
-
Houston picked up a good coach

Definitely a special talent. Todays game was a perfect encapsulation of the ups and downs of what it will be like - decent scoring but inefficient, making solid plays but high turnovers, big rebounding and at the rim presence but guys wanting to attack his body.

Can we call Victor a Twice in a Generation talent?

Chet is really good too
I reckon, despite not playing last year, he would have learned a heap just being in the environment for a year.
Got a better team around him than that shit Spurs roster as well
-
The stars have aligned for Chet. He’s come into a young team but a team that is largely uninterrupted from a solid year last year.
They have two guards that are willing passers, including a superstar scorer.
An emerging star in J Williams.
Wemby has a huge load to carry with a few guys that are trying to get theirs which is doing nothing for team cohesion.
OKC will be a playoff team.

lol check out the start of the Warriors v T-Wolves game
A minute in, no points scored, a fight breaks out, 3 guys get ejected.
The cynic in me says that Thompson and Green saw Curry was out and didn't want a bar of the game, so got out ASAP

@mariner4life they definitely missed Curry at the close of the game. They were in it up to their eye balls with less than a minute to go. Then they had a rookie taking a shot, Paul missing a pull up.
Was a hard watch.
