We've seen much crazier, and as you alluded to, the Wizards are one of the most incompetent franchises in the NBA.
Dwight would be perfect on the Rockets hopefully he is intrigued by our youth movement, and choose to play in HTown
i sitll think he is a wing of the future...I've always been really high on him. Too bad he's playing in that black hole.
Backfired if they did. He got 21 pts out of them and Harkless' filed out. (As someone said, it couldn't be more Harkless.)
I hear you. But I'm here to tell you that as maligned as wall has been they will not be moving Wall in the next 2 years. Plus his weakness are exactly what we don't want in pairing a pg with Harden. He's not much of a shooter. If they stay healthy the wiz will be a playoff team next year. Unfortunately they've severely limited their future capability to improve by trading for Nene, Okafor & Ariza. That group will be competitive in the east but their upside is a 6th seed team.
Pop gonna Pop... I guess Kawhi Leonard doesn't play back-to-backs either. Him and Duncan didn't travel to the game.
If Houston doesn't shock the world and take down the WC, I'd love nothing more than to see a veteran-laden Spurs squad go punch-for-punch with the defending champs in the Finals. As much as I hate SA, it's a first-class organization. From Buford to Pop, to Duncan-Parker-Ginobli, and on. Pop's the best x's & o's coach in the league, and he has a handful of stoppers - Leonard, Cap'n Jack, Green - to throw at LeBron & Wade. OKC's one injury or disastrous series from KD/Westbrook away from an early exit, and the Clips are too sporadic. SA's very deep, disciplined, & well-balanced. MIA-SA in the Finals is all but a done deal, in my book.
Denver is also a very scary team because of their depth & balance. When they catch fire, they're damn near unstoppable (same goes for the Rockets).
Spurs have a much tougher road, and they'll probably be gassed if they make it there... right now they'd have to go thru the Lakers, then Memphis/Denver, then OKC/LAC. Compared to Bucks, Brooklyn/Chicago, NYK/Indiana...
Are we just going to ignore Rubio's Triple Double last night against the Spurs of all teams? 21 points, 13 rebounds and 12 assists would that make him elite now? Can he enter the club yet or long way to go??
