    I’ve been thinking the same thing about the floater. It will be hard to develop in season, but that should definitely be an area of concentration this off-season. If he can develop a good floater and we sign a rim running and PnR center or PF he will be close to unstoppable with his superior handles.

    GSW are still cheating bastards who own the refs.

    And it's not just Draymond.

    HolyFcuk! TS% 91% in the "clutch" vs 49% for the season!

    paging @steddinotayto

    Which of these two stats do you think is factored in RAPTOR? And which one is more important?

    Yawn. This KPJ situation is going to end badly. It’s kid stuff now. But It’ll be a HUGE disaster if the decide to extend him with huge NBA $$$.

    Gotta get with the times. Now Jalen Green is Corey Brewer and Anthony Bennett combined but worse.

    And it would be an equally huge disaster if they let him go and he becomes a top 25 player. And he has that kind of talent. We just have no idea how this will play out.

    Really?
    His behavioral history is a HUGE clue. If it was just about basketball it would be different. He's been trouble everywhere he's been for years now. It will never be just about basketball with this head case. I wouldn't want to be the GM who gives him big NBA $$$.

    21 years old, he needs to mature.

    I think it is pretty safe to say KPJ will never be Olajuwon....... nobody was in 24 years.

    I change my mind on KPJ every other game or so ...


    It's fairly obvious he has the physical gifts to be a highly regarded NBA player, but there's a very fine line between good and great.
