We seemingly never play the Warriors with a healthy squad on both sides. Last year it was no Smart vs. no Klay, then no Crowder vs. no Iguodola. This year we played them without Crowder and Horford and now they're playing with no KD.
This is the most advantageous matchup we'll have, especially if McCaw starts. IT can guard McCaw while Bradley and Crowder guard Steph and Klay.
Doesn't mean we're favored though.

Typical C's, playing lousy against mediocre opponents only to look like a juggernaut against the real elite teams. First breaking the Dubs home streak last season and now breaking their long streak of scoring over 100 points in home games.
But I've gotta be honest, the Warriors without Durant are not that scary. They willingly gutted their bench and therefore are not as deep anymore which was also a big part of their success. I happen to think they can be easily had in the early playoffs until KD comes back. It's quite possible that they lose the 1st seed to the Spurs and have to survive a much tougher bracket.

Not a big surprise but the kid projected to be the top pick ( and future Boston Celtic ) in the 2017 NBA Draft officially announced he will enter the upcoming Draft.
from espn.com:
Washington freshman Markelle Fultz, a potential No. 1 pick in June, announced Friday that he will enter the NBA draft.
Fultz made the announcement in a video on Twitter.
"After sitting down with my mom and the coaching staff, I've made the decision to enter the NBA draft," Fultz said in the video. "Although the season hasn't gone as planned, it's really truly been a blessing to be here, and I learned plenty of life lessons on and off the court, especially from coach [Lorenzo Romar] and his coaching staff. I'm always going to be a Husky for life. Go Dawgs."
Fultz, a 6-foot-4 guard from Maryland, averaged 23.2 points, 5.9 assists and 5.7 rebounds per game in his one season at Washington. He missed six of the final eight games of the season with a sore knee.

They're gonna end up pissing away home court advantage if they keep this up......beating GS & Cleveland, then losing to subpar teams like Denver, etc.......brutal!
Cleveland's not much better as long as Washington collapses, C's are still the 2 seed....

Update: The Bulls now really suck and probably won't make the playoffs, in part due to the surging Heat and Bucks and in part due to the fact that they really suck.

Chicago have had a crap roster all year and Butler, whilst being a great player, wasn't worth the proposed packages that were being bandied around preseason. I'm glad Danny stood his ground on that one. For a supposed lunchpail guy, Butler really does pick and choose when to show effort.

Lonzo Ball = Lavar Ball
Josh Jackson = hit and run // another incident
Why must it always be so tough to draft frekin teenagers? Let us just win the lotto for once, draft Fultz and be done with it.

I care a lot more about his passing than his father. I don't know if I like him as much as Fultz or Tatum, but I like him a lot.
