golden state fans are so used to being shitty that trading is often their first resort in whining. it has been “the grass is greener on the other side” for about 15 years, so it will take a while to kill that mentality.
but yeah. bad loss tonight. mark jackson let shaw dictate how that game went.
I haven’t read anything in the past few months about GSW wanting to trade Lee. Unless I’m mistaken, it’s just random writers bringing up the idea based on the small sample size of last year’s playoffs.
One thing people always get on DLee is his lateral movement, almost comparable to stat and gasol when somebody wants to attack the paint, they just run circles around him. It makes you cringe sometimes. DLee puts up great stats but his big contract and poor defense is probably what prompts those rumors. I think it’s a matter of fit. With Bogut protecting the rim, and Andre or Barnes on the floor, Curry spreading the defense, Klay sitting on the perimter, DLee is amazing. Outside of that, he never shot a 3 in his life, and can’t block or put pressure for shit.
I predict we lose this one very much like the last one. I don’t see this team beating OKC with the type of play we’ve been getting these last 2 months.
