    The media hating on us is a great sign for this season

    While I think it's great to be excited about a player who was barely in the league, again, it would be a reach for that to equate to a high offseason grade. I don't care how hard you sugar coat it or how optimistic you are about him, sorry, you don't get an A+ for adding Michael Carter Williams. Lulz.

    Agree, underrated signing. And hopefully he doesn't keep stepping out of bounds like Luc did

    Here’s me not sugar-coating him: MCW is probably our third best new player, and he’s a proven 6’6 perimeter defender

    Yeah, I also agree with heypartner. MCW is going to be more useful off the bench than some think, in my opinion.

    Life is hard and scary though. Bad things could happen. Why can't WE have an all-star team like the Warriors??? ༼☯﹏☯༽

    (I kid, I kid)

    But for real, with our top four back, and the record last year when Harden, Paul and Capela played together, and how close we were to beating GS, and all the factors you mention, a savvy chess player is nowhere close to panicking right now. This thing is very winnable.

    Edit: If you haven't, watch The Hustler with Paul Newman and Jackie Gleason (as Minnesota Fats). Be Fats.

    Maybe he meant ADHD but lost interest mid type.

    D would go to an A+ real fast. Unless you mean Dantley.
