Well, they already have Porzingis. They still have a chance, I think. :p

Porzingis is in the Knicks. Brooklyn is the Nets. They don't have a rookie like Porzingis or anybody else.

My bad. :p
I keep thinking Brooklyn as New York, thus Knicks. You're right; I don't see any star in that team. :p

Another reason Brooklyn should just wave the white flag.

Perhaps, free agency after this season might help them, if they have enough cap space, of course.

I doubt it. The management has messed up their financial situation.

Hmm, then, file for bankruptcy, and move the team to somewhere in Canada, especially Vancouver. 8)

Brooklyn has a big market and a nice arena. But the cap space right now is awful, but next summer will have ample space to sign free agents, possibly Durant.

Durant can't alone make a team become great. I mean, he has Westbrook to support him in OKC, but he needs a supporter in Brooklyn, I think.

Maybe sign two more free agents to supplement Durant.

Let's not forget among the Curry hype, that Draymond Green has a couple of triple doubles in the last few games. He's playing lights out too.

As for the new poll, I'm sticking to my guns. The streak goes to 28.

My personal feeling is, he's going to be a Wizard, or he's going to stay in OKC. I could be wrong, but I don't think he'll land anywhere else.

Man, it is not false that a well-rounded team is bound to do well in the season. 22 games for me.

I'm going for 41 wins for the Warriors, because Kerr would probably rest the starting lineup for Game 34 and have the bench throw the game away, only to win by a last-second Ezeli heave from half-court, and then Kerr shrugs and goes "I'll take 41", and --

-- OK I'm done.

Indeed, he should. :)

Score prediction for Warriors and Jazz tonight? I expect a close game of 90-ish points to 80-ish points. Less than ten-point difference.

Yes, and Curry will shine. I'm expecting about 25-30 points from him tonight.

Why a close match, exactly? It's the Jazz.

GSW had a wide lead against the Kings last game. I'm thinking they might be slightly tired tonight.

Still, it's the Jazz. But the Warriora will play a back-to-back with Toronto being one on the second game.
