who is the "Tim Duncan" of the 2020 class though?

There probably isn’t one, but you just know the Warriors will make whatever the right pick is.

Not working out with Kobe did him wonders.

I thought he, along with Fox, Kawhi and others got invited to one of his "private" camps?

No wonder the Kings are 0-5

His point guard not being a flat earth truther.
This Just In: LeBron James is still good at basketball.

I don't think so, they lost Steph, but WCS is back.

At this point, Willie may be their second best player by simple process of elimination.

You mean behind the guy who starts at 5 for Warriors?

You can't start if you don't play defense.
Shout out to Markelle Fultz, making his first start as a member of the Magic, tonight.
You could make the case that the best player (on paper) in uniform for the Warriors last night was Cauley-Stein, and he still couldn't manage ten points. Against a team with no significant inside presence.

most of the shots were taken by guards and wings. WCS had an efficient game though: 57% FG, 8 reb, 2 ast, 1 stl, 1 blck in 21 minutes.
Went to the Blazers game last night. Blazers had the thing in the bag and then suddenly blow it. Notably the Philly player I had never heard of until researching the Giles contract situation iced the game with a 3 with .4 on the clock. Pretty sure that was only the second lead Philly had all game. Kids had a good time which is all that matters.
According to Marc Zumoff, it was their first lead.
He evidently didn't look very carefully at the box score. The Sixers took their first lead 126-125 with 10.1 seconds left. After Simons hit a Portland three, then Korkmaz hit the winner: second lead.
yup. I couldn't remember who got the first bucket but they surged to an 8pt lead or so and then had it between 5-8 for most of the game, as high as about 15. Seemingly iced it after a steal and fast break, but they couldn't make the easy bucket and then Philly went on a late run to take their first lead. My girlfriend had predicted that would happen.
Also one other thing of note, inside the penultimate Philly possession, there was a foul called on Hezonja and it seemed clear as day but Portland challenged it. Unless I missed it they had one time out and it wasn't taken away because they called it to advance on the final possession with .4 left. I think there should be some type of oversight but this was just a "hey we don't like the call and haven't used our challenge nothing to lose" thing which seems an abuse/broken deal for me.

It’s like having two ball dominant players who clearly hate each other isn’t a sustainable way to build a team.
