That was painful to watch the last 3 games as a neutral fan just wanting a good series. Warriors just figured them out.

I didn't follow the playoff much. I was happy to see Andrew Wiggins succeed. He had so much promise after being a first overall pick. I'm sure he was under a ton of pressure to perform in Minnesota.

Definitely! He got so much flak over the years for not being a superstar #1 overall pick. Really proved the haters wrong about him being a winning player. If I had to rank the top Warriors during this run it would be Steph > Wiggins > Dray > Klay

Seeing the recent contracts handed out in free agency, it makes me weep that I'm not a-1.5 feet taller, b-athletic, and c-skilled.

Wiseman will join that group later this year. Looking forward to another title run. The only hope the rest of the NBA has, is to build a super team.

Sad to say I don't see Wiseman developing into anything more than a 10-20 MPG role player.

Nothing I have seen from him at the pro level leads me to believe he should have been drafted anywhere near #2 overall.

I hope I am wrong but he's a fouling machine.

I think ROTY is gonna be between Paulo Banchero and Jaden Ivey.

Paulo just has a very solid all around game; scoring, passing, defending. Gonna be a plus player from the jump I think.

Ivey has an incredibly polished offensive game. Really fun to watch. The Pistons could actually be solid this year! They have accrued so much young talent. I really like their core of Cade, Ivey, Stewart and Bey.

Which rookies do you all like?
