Yep. Paved the way for Draymond.

Long ass arms and freak athleticism. It's why you see teams now put as much stock into wingspan and standing reach as raw height when scouting defenders and rim protectors.
Can 2 Chainz wear headbands around his biceps?
Prediction: The Celtics will not shoot 3s as well as they did in game 1
that's a bold prediction bread
They aren't winning the tip off with Horford.

Add a gritty, no one-star Pistons team that prided itself on it's defense.
Man guarded 2004 Shaq, and could actually do it
Another example
The Return?
Pop's in a good mood
Damn straight!
EDIT - Stupid gif didn't work...
Patrick Beverley is a 6'1'' shooting guard (basically) who can play off ball, will set screens, move the ball and handle it if need be, act as a secondary creator, but also get to his spots. He ended up, after years of searching, being the perfect Harden complement.
There's a reason Westbrook + Harden, or WB + Durant, wasn't as ideal as it could have been. Curry's ability to play off ball is what really separates him from the other major point guards

I feel like Ben Wallace was specifically created to fuck with Prime Shaq...and even then no one could TRULY stop Prime O'Neal.
I have no reason to believe that Jae will hit 6 more 3s this whole series.

DeAndre Jordan is a very poor man's version of Ben Wallace.

China, it seems
Ben Wallace was terrible offensively, you were playing 4 vs 5 with him.
Tbh, that's a major part of it too. It's hard to be a DPOY level player and have a big role offensively.

It's Kemba, Batum, Zeller, Frank the tank, Lamb, MKG, and I'm done. Kemba is great, Batum is a great tertiary max, Zeller was the difference between them being great and then being terrible after his injury, MKG idk, and Lamb is one of the better rebounding guards in the league.
Started 19-15. Terrible back-up point guard. Cody Zeller is great for them, does all the little things in terms of screens, passes, when to score, defense, etc.
But more than anything, they were really fucking unlucky this year. They had a positive point differential (AKA: on average scored more points than opponent), and had a losing record. They went 0-6 in OT games. After the Zeller injury, they went 3-17. They led the lead by a significant margin in terms of blown 4th quarter leads. 50/50 games went against them at an abnormal rate.

His offense wasn't good at all but man he was a GOAT level defensive anchor during his Detroit stint. Such a high impact player from someone who only plays on one side of the ball.
Why not?
Kawhi(2), KG, D12(3), Marc, Artest, Zo, GP, Hakeem(2), Dikembe(4) and 13.5/11.2 I know, but still...), Admiral, MJ, Sidney Moncreif, and Alvin Robertson had a decent to big role offensively
yeah this season was no fun once january rolled around

Duncan and 2013 Lebron also deserved one.
Arguably Dennis Rodman. He did everything offensively as expected EXCEPT score
I wonder what a Rodman type would do against these Warriors. Rebounds like crazy, small quick and strong, more than 5 offensive rebounds per game, etc. Being able to sag off him though would make the Warriors offense great
If Rodman was on a team like the Jazz...switchin on defense, possible lobs constantly, small pocket passes in the paint...lowkey could average like 11/15

Marcu... err... Markieff Morris playing great so far
I don't understand why two smart GMs were in on Amir.

Swedish Larry Bird will get to style on that terrible bench.
Speaking of which, any timetable on when Mahinmi would get to come back?
