@saltlover

what would you offer for DMC?

Amir, Rozier, 2017 Brooklyn, 2018 Boston, 2019 Memphis.  I wouldn't offer both Brooklyn picks.

His shooting percentages in college were never great (especially his FT%). Interesting to note that Durant was Smart-like from 3 in his rookie year too.

How disappointing if he turns out to be a Rudy Gay/Jeff Green thing.

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahha

Nah good luck to the kid.

Starting to join the warriors winning the chip is a foregone conclusion. Klay and Curry both on pace for over 40 points may end up with an 80 point half. They are up 20 with Durant having taken 3 shots.

Not you too celticsclay lol

ppl were saying similar things last season, and we all know what happened. IMO that lesson was forgotten far too quickly.

If they stay healthy (and Curry wasn't by the end of things), I will concede as well. 

But injuries happen, and until the Celtics are either holding that trophy or have been eliminated, I will still believe in our ability to win.

Yep. Say goodbye for Westbrook's chance as the MVP.

Believe me I hate to say it. I think they will have some cold shooting games, but not enough to loss 4 out of 7. Also, my biggest take away from that series was that the Warriors will still the better team but the suspension of Green, Injuries to Bogut and Iggy and Curry playing at 60% from a leg injury was really what turned that series more than a choke or Cleveland being better at full strength.

Yet they were up by 3-1. Like he said, the Warriors may be favorites, but they are NOT a guaruntee.

@celticsclay

I could play devil's advocate and say similar things about the 2015 finals.

my point though is do not lose hope. even a healthy GSW can lose.

In other news, how on earth did the Bucks go 1-9 in the last 10? Anyone here following their games?

They are one injury away from mortality. If either one of Draymond, Iggy or KD got injured, they'll have harder road to win it all. They also have history on injuries, including KD that put their durability with asterisk.

Why iggy? He is a really average player these days
