We will always have that 2016 title, and I would take that any day of the week waiting for a player with potential to blossom (if he ever does). This season was Love's best season imo. I know he was out 5-6 weeks, but the fact Horford received 1 All-NBA vote and Love didn't is a complete joke.
Wiggins is still very young and can become very good, but by the time that happens Lebron's window might be closed.
Yep. I'm happy to eat my words on that trade today.
My big hangup was that while Wiggins was young and not as good an offensive tool, he was already a better defender.
I've been looking at something lately. It seems like they built this team to do their best to outscore opponents as opposed to focusing on being a lockdown on opponents.
While outscoring is a risky play against most teams, it does seem like it's well-suited to going up against the Warriors. They're going to get their points almost every game, regardless of how good the defense is. You're probably better suited to trying to outscore them than you are trying to lock them down and win a low-scoring game with them.

It makes a TON of sense. I even noticed it watching pregame on television. He just looked like he was dragging.
