I think we will win Saturday, Fox and Lyles are out and Kings have no defense. Kings are arrogant…they have one winning season and they think they are Golden State? We will win tomorrow and Sengun will show out tomorrow
it gives us a slight edge early on . We should be able to give some teams a bit more of a punch / have fresher legs
oh if I had doubts before, I definitely think it’s rigged now. Wembanyama was wearing a freakin Spurs jersey taking a picture with Tony Parker a few years ago. The pick was in way back! And the NBA doesn’t show the lottery procedure itself on live TV? I don’t care what they say about secrecy and who is standing there to watch, if we don’t see it, can’t believe you.
I suspect Sabonis will put up bigger numbers, because Alpi is trying to do what Udoka wants, and that is a balanced attack (and defense). But I hope we win both games, especially since Fox is out for at least the first one. Am in Asia right now, will get up at 6:30 am to watch this!
Hope we can compete hard. See some improvement on the young guys. Still hard to keep saying Year 1 things on year 4. But that's love I guess. See better offense is a big thing for me today.
They are also well coached. Like while we were playing around with Silas guys were learning bad habits. We all saw it. The Spurs were losing last year but they were still playing team basketball, they still knew their roles, they were still being taught good habits. Our guys were not. Wemby can only do so much, Spurs are 3-3 because Sochan and Vassel and those guys are playing better and Wemby was just another player they fit into their team. We are still trying to develop a structure and culture again since the last coach and team leaders were clueless.
imho, Nugget's championship is an accident to Adam Siiver n his dirty crew. (during David Stern's tenure most playoff games are clean, i believe)
