James jones couldn’t have blown it any harder when he passed on Haliburton.

His worst mistake by 1,000 miles.

Good move by coach. Ant has to grow up and be a leader. Hopefully he responds in the right way. Maybe start reading Sun Tzu?

I don't see how the Warriors can handle him. The best defender at Guard is GP2 but he's not healthy and statistically was actually their worst defender in the Houston series, he's just not 100% and hasn't been for a few weeks. So the obvious guy is Butler but you're scared to put him on Ant because of fouls. Draymond guarded him some too. In the 2nd half Ant got to the rim at will and until Looney came in nobody really could contest him at the rim.

He won't struggle from distance the whole series so I would assume the next few games he's going to be attacking. They'll use that zone they used against Houston and probably some doubles too but he's just too good. Every run they made seemed to be keyed by him and Naz Reid.

The other key was Mike Conley who's always given us fits it seems had a donut and was -12 in 22 minutes. He's such a good floor leader we can't count on him struggling the whole series.

This is not a fun fact here, Gerald. I still don't understand how James Jones passed on drafting him.

False fact Gerald. A LOT of people know the Suns could have drafted him and loudly said so at the time.

Thanks, GERALD

That live draft thread lives rent free in my head and has for years. Almost the entire board was ecstatic that Hali was falling to us. It was such a no brainer and then Stix.

Right? The RAREST of moments when the board was almost in total unison. A blind frog could have hopped on that pick.
