    So that segment is supposed to be about whether the Rockets or Thunder are a bigger threat to the Warriors and they never even address that question?

    Honestly the biggest problem is Ryan Anderson who is a defensive sieve. Luc and PJ will help loads.

    Harden will likely be better on D due to playing fewer minutes due to having more depth and not having to carry all the offensive load.

    Capela is no defensive anchor but he does alright. Goal should be to be a top 10 defensive team I think that is doable.

    Yeah, our obvious Achilles' heel is with our bigs. I like what Tariq Black and Nene will give us, but, as much as I want to find out that Ryan Anderson is my illegitimate son so he can buy his old pops a house, he'll still wind up a s**t-smear on the hardwood if he tries to D up on anyone.

    I don't want to judge Clint too harshly on one pre-season game but I think I'll go put in my two cents in that thread wondering if he's a future part of our rotation or trade bait.

    Third star and/or upgrade the 4. A power forward, hopefully.

    Honestly, I didn't bring up Anderson because all he can do is shoot. I wish we had a better starter at the 4, and then we could bring Ryan off the bench. His contract is too big. Ryan isn't more than a 8 M guy.

    Well like it or not the Rockets are most likely stuck with him unless we can offload him so we have to take him into account. I wouldn't be too worried though I think he has a better year with CP3 helping set him up.

    Ryan consistently finishes with very solid +/-

    The spacing is not emphasized on TV but from a basketball standpoint keeping players like draymond and ibaka out of the paint makes a HUGE difference

    How do you bear listening to Shannon? The guy has an annoying voice and very poor insight. Just yells a lot.

    Stephen A actually has decent analysis and is well spoken.

    If we combined the Thunder and the Rockets, that would be a threat to the Warriors. The Warriors won't rule forever, they will fall apart, it's usually something that no one predicts will happen that takes the great teams down. Let's hope it begins soon so the NBA will be fun again.
