In the Nuggets breakdown you said Aaron Gordon was an offensive "tweener" in a bad way, seems like JTA is the same way defensively. Idk I guess our lack of IQ last year made him look much better by comparison, but he has looked like a tier below for months now. Hate to see it.

Alch, you think the Dubs believe they can win a chip without Klay finding some rhythm? In the sense that, as a team, they may be willing to lose leading up to the Playoffs, if the payoff of Klay chucking for the next four weeks, is that he finally finds a consistent rhythm going into May?

I am not even mad at Smart for the play, I am however mad that he turns into prime Ray Allen everytime he plays us. The Celtics, even back in the KD years, are the one team I hate playing. Everything they are about is kryptonite to how we play and now this year they have the length that rivals that 2016 OKC team

Exactly. Taking a risk and missing is better than sticking with a guy we already know doesn't have a spot in the rotation under normal circumstances. Cheese isn't even that young so it's not like there's much more development to be made. I think a guy at his size and limited natural talent by 26 you are who you're going to be.

Even if they swung and missed at a buyout guy.. no excuse to not have Mawugbe in that spot

Nope no changes need to be made, can go into the playoffs with a full roster plus your 2 two-way guys. They made the change because of all the Covid protocols last season and just never went back to the original rule. They could before the playoffs start, but as of now they're eligible. Keeping Chiozza is going to be a black mark on this season if they get knocked out of the playoffs early

Oh shit! Ok! And we don’t have to cut the roster down? …. My first thought is. This makes the cheese even worse a decision

Two-way players are eligible for the playoffs again this season Alch. They made the rule change last year and have kept it

Alch, when you said , 'je ne sais quoi', your accent was really good, i thought.
Klay gets a whole season to re-acclimate and dubnation gets a whole season to reason that it was unreasonable to expect that Klay would come in and right the ship as much time as he missed. Im thinking the level of play in the beginning of the season reflected the level of optimism at the season outlook then. Things have shifted and i may be wrong but it doesn't feel like the warriors are real contenders this season. There aren't enough games to really re-incorporate the guys that have been out and we didn't make any moves to improve our rim protection. In the last month, did our plan to win this season become a plan to win next season? If so, play more kuminga, poole and moody.
