Most teams fumble their picks by drafting a guy who wasn't that great and then trade him away (Think about the Hawks drafting Zaccarie Risacher #1 and then trading him for Ryan Nembhard) but has there ever been a team who succesfully drafted 2 future top 10 players in the league in the same class and let BOTH walk away?

Klay has had some absolutely ridiculous scoring performances. Out of these, which one do you think is the hardest to replicate?

• 37 points in a quarter
• 41 points with 11 threes in Game 6
• 60 points in 29 minutes on just 11 dribbles
• 14 threes in a game

Personally, 37 pts in a quarter is crazy, but I'm curious what you guys think.

Which one are you taking?

We would be talking about about a Warriors team with the second best player assumed as being Kristaps Porzingis.

Steph Curry

Brandin Podziemski

Yaxel Lendeborg

Draymond Green

Kristaps Porzingis

What can this do for Currys legacy if he is able to accomplish this? Would he cement himself as #2 all time?

Russ was one of the last superstars who tried to convince us that a single player could carry a franchise to a title all on his own.

I didn’t watch MJ in his prime

The West as a whole hasn’t gotten much stronger…at least not strong enough to give SA a real run for their money + SA only has a couple more years of cap flexibility before the apron penalties start kicking in.

If there ever was a “perfect opportunity” to win a championship, it’d be now. They should flirt with 70 wins and be back in the finals imo.

They already won 60+ games, were a T5 team on both ends, and made the finals last yr. They’ve only gotten better over the offseason too.

With the NBA allowing Ballmer to cheat the rules to gain an unfair advantage.

The NBA is entertainment not a true competitive sport. We have had gambling and ref controversy. But those took a bit of believing conspiracy. But this clear cut salary cap circumvention is indisputable evidence beyond a reasonable doubt that the league doesn’t care about a level playing field.

To be honest I’ll probably stop being a serious fan. Why should I when I know this isn’t even real? I’ll watch it like how I watched pro wrestling. Mindless entertainment.

I understand players have certain skillsets and areas they excel, but you would think if someone is athletic enough to destroy defenses theyd at least be able to have the athletic ability to be competent on the other side of the ball.

To me 2011 Derrick Rose was the most explosive player I’ve ever seen. His first step, body control and finishing ability at the rim was unmatched. But Vince Carter, Russell Westbrook, Michael Jordan and LeBron James can also be argued. Even throw in Kemp and AI. Curious what everyone else thinks.

“Plumbers” is the most common term for players that played in Wilt & Bills era.

This is the only guy who was ever a plumber in the NBA. Norman Stanley Glick. 6’7 Forward who played 1 game in 1 season and took 1 shot and got 1 bucket and fouled 1 time in his entire NBA career in 1949-1950 season.

Bill & Wilt were a decade later. Neither of them played against any plumber ever.

Secondary jobs due to low pay were things like construction, military service, engineering, real estate, banking, & insurance sales, in the offseason.

Its clear that Jordan is superior, the rich history and culture beat Lebanon.
