I don't trust Hayward to stay healthy and therein lies the problem

It's about time they make a big leap next season. Can see Orlando dropping out of the playoffs

That is the biggest question and the reason he is no longer in Bean Town. He is an efficient players with a very high IQ and is no scrub on the defensive end but he is too prone to injuries.
If they can keep him healthy, coupled with their fluid guard play with the players i listed above, they can do some good stuff with their guard play especially on offense.

Na you dey mind that troll. That has been his anthem all season. cheesy grin

lol finger injury? I thought he broke his forearm, had some complications following surgery and had to have a repeat procedure aquote author[=steady986 post=96244107]Man, Klay can't just get a break. Season ending injury for the second year in a row? Damn. Quick recovery to him.

But on a different note, I'd love to see Steph lead a team without Klay. That thing that he ran away from last season, he must do it this time around grin. Unless he want to fake another season-ending finger injury. Then maybe the Warriors can tank and get another early first round pick next year. I wonder how a finger injury can rule you out for the season angry.

One thing is sure though, you can't cheat the game.

We also got Jeff Teague on a one year contract. Wanamaker will join the Warriors. He was good for us last season, I wish him all the best.

Marc Gasol! Not at the top of his game, but a skilled big man who can get some buckets. This could be huge for Lakers in terms of playoff matchups

Lol absolutely nobody is giving Lonzo any type of max. Feel for Fultz too but he might get something decent as he's improved somewhat at Orlando

Pelinka really in his bag because this is far and away the best roster in the league and the Lakers are condemned to repeat at this point. Kobe will be proud

Do you even know where the Colts rank defensively this season? Do you realize the Colts rank top 5 in every defensive category and top 2 in most categories. Away from the conversation about the GOAT.

What is going on with your boy Lamar Jackson? The man has looked horrible this season. I remember predicting defensive coaches will not allow him do what he did last season again.
Defensive coaches have studied his style and are now restricting him to the pocket as a passer and boy is he struggling.. especially with deep throws.
I get it, the Ravens are not particularly stacked offensively but he is missing very open and obvious short throws.
Coach Harbaugh has to help the kid also...Him the OC and QB coach have to come up with creative ways to allow him be himself.

Bam gets the max. Well, anything to lock him down, but I think it was too soon. He hasn't even proven to be a 20ppg player and a regular all-star yet.

Steady, Bam has shown he is good enough for the max. He can guard all 5 positions and the Heat run their offense through him. For me, he ticked all the boxes.

He has earned it, IMHO at the time of getting the max he has outperformed lots of other players who also got the bag e.g Wiggins, J Murray ( who proved after he had got the bag, that he was worth it), D Booker.
His offensive output is just going to continue to improve so he has earned it

Abeggi. What was the position of the Vikings? Just be thankful for your weak schedule. You would be 6-4 if the 49ers weren't crushed with injuries

Lamar has been sussed out. That's just the truth. Also that OC has some work to do.

I hope he stays healthy because his throwing motion and accuracy is very mid that should his athleticism diminishes a jot he would have big problems
