    Some folks are quite delusional to think a rookie who was sht like 95% of the season could b thrown into the team during playoffs and be the difference maker.

    I think fvv is sht and a main reason for us losing in playoffs but reed aint saving us this season.
    Hopefully he outplayed fvv for starting positon next season or we don't resign fvv altogether

    Not necessarily a difference maker. But a couple of timely 3s from Sheppard, especially one from Curry distance, would have changed some things up. Depending on matchups though Curry would have destroyed him. I mean Reed was in the single digits in age damn near, when the Warriors started their dynasty so he'd be star struck

    Not sure why the coaching staffs do not pay attention to Tari's baseline ignorance as a professional player. It is not pickup ball, it is ****ing playoff. His reckless serving cost us a possession in Game 3, and hopefully he won't repeat this dumb mistake.

    Reed could definitely be a difference maker. Anyone who says otherwise is wrong. So could Cam. They both have the ability to help the team.

    Of course they could also come in and completely **** the bed. That would be very much in play as well.

    But to completely rule out any chance (no matter how small you think it is) of them having a positive impact is stupid.

    But its moot anyways. Neither are seeing playing time that matters until next year, unless (knock on wood) theres injuries.

    Unless a trade is made, there just won't be many minutes for Cam next year either. Ime will keep playing the same guys. Stone needs to make a move.
