    Really, really good signing for the Warriors. They need shooters for their offense to really thrive and Otto will get lots of open shots.

    I’m sure we where but maybe not.

    Can't believe this guy was the 3rd pick....

    Evan Mobley will have a similar career path .

    Really smart for him too. He has been labeled as an overpaid player that needs to restore his value on the market. There he can get burn and be valuable in FA next year similar to Oubre oddly.

    As the founding member of the Otto Porter Movement I do not approve.

    Warriors are winning another one next year. They’re going to run laps around Del Boca Vista West. Warriors Nets finals is going to be a good one. Although I’m still holding out hope for a Brooklyn implosion.

    You know Oubre was absolutely horrible last year, right?

    warrior fans claim that Dantoni inflates hardens numbers and makes other players on the team stagnant.

    I could make the case that Steve kerrs offense maximizes steph curry but players like draymond and klay Thompson would be much more decorated stars if they didn’t have sacrifice so much of their games to help curry shine

    klay Thompson could have devin booker level without curry. I’ve seen klay have muliple 40 point games without curry in the lineup. I saw Wiggins get 40 against the playoff bound grizzlies in a win on the road without curry in the lineup. Can you name any player that harden has played with Houston that got 40 without harden.


    Edit: Eric Gordon had a 50 point game against Utah. But the point still stands

    You realize some of Harden's former teammates have said the exact same thing, right?

    I would love for you to make this argument.

    Given Curry's gravity, how exactly does less defensive attention help hurt Klay Thompson?

    Given Draymond Green's scoring ineptitude, how does playing with the GOAT off-ball player/shooter hurt Green?

    And Devin Booker was a fringe all-star who failed to make the playoffs until CP3 led the Suns there.

    What point do you think you made? We've seen Corey Brewer score 51 points in a game. Why does it matter that he wasn't wearing a Rockets uniform?
