I dont

Why don't you like Victor Oladipo playing with the Warriors? You'll be a lock for that 7th or 8th seed.
Even better if you play the Suns or Jazz in the first round. I'd pick the Warriors in that series for sure!

I love Victor Oladipo's game. A two-time all star and 28 years old. He'll be a huge factor on a playoff contender.

By the way I started a cool series called iZombie on Netflix. It's a fun series to watch. I highly recommend it.
Diablo 3 has a pet named after the main character, Olivia "Liv" Moore, which ties it to the Diablo universe also.

He can put up all the stats he wants, still garbage and can't consistently lead his team. Just doesn't have "it" to be a leader and impact the game consistently on both sides of the ball.

Much like Kevin Love when he was in Minny putting up monster numbers but rarely winning games. KAT is like a #3 on a championship team that's the sad reality.


I wouldnt go as far as calling him garbage, but I agree, mainly because he is a no show on defense...

I poke fun at you sometimes for no reason and I think you know it. But for fuck sakes man KAT is only 25 and has never had a good team or coaching staff around him, yet he’s still a top tier scoring big man. Love was never on the level of KAT. We aren’t the worst franchise because of him. I know you worship the ground Embiid walks on, but just because KAT was in glassmans head doesn’t make your man look any less fragile

I don't actually think KAT is garbage, i mean the man averages terrific numbers in the NBA and I think he's very skilled. He just doesn't have it mentally, he's soft, and his defense is pure shit. His statistical production never actually makes his team better which is just ridiculous and he puts up empty stats. Much like Kevin Love in Minny, he puts up great numbers but doesn't actually make his team better. Much of that is because he's shit defensively.

To summarize him....he's overrated. It doesn't mean he's bad by any means, but he's been heavily overrated which the league has realized now (he's not even an All-Star anymore). He's doing what Kevin Love did in Minnesota....literally almost the same production and both are worthless defensively.

Love averaged 24/14 his last 4 seasons in Minnesota. Guess what KAT is averaging his last 4 seasons in Minnesota? 24/12.


Also, how are you going to call Embiid "glassman" when KAT misses more games than him these days? Difference is Embiid is the league MVP when he's playing while KAT can't even win half his games even when he plays so the Timberwolves don't even miss him most of the time rofl

Why? I mean KAT isn't overrated anymore, because now the league and fans caught on and he's getting about the level of respect that he deserves which is not as high as it once was because he's a loser who makes little impact to his team. But there was a period of time when he was discussed in the same convo as Embiid which now is funny...

KAT is Kevin Love 2.0 which isn't a bad thing, Kevin Love is (was) an awesome player he was just never a #1 guy on a true contender.

Andrew Wiggins tonight vs. the Memphis Grizzlies:

40 PTS
8 REB
6 3PT
14-24 FG

His first 40-point game with the Warriors. I always liked Andrew Wiggins' game.
He just turned 26 years old. Can he become a late bloomer and all-star player?

From 26 to 33 he'll make three or four all-star appearances. Is that a bold prediction?
