I also thought 2-3 years for SGA to get this good. And expected Gallo to be traded. Dennis wasn’t this good last year. Adams was injured to start year I thought they would spell him a ton in tank mode. Didn’t expect Bazley to be this good either. Nader has impressed.(01-02-2020, 11:00 PM)ThunderMav Wrote: My goodness I’m falling for this team. Had zero, I mean zero expectations this year and these guys are gelling so good.
Come on, I am getting tired of your zero expectations seasonYou have great players. Excellent vets in Paul, Gallo and Adams and useful 6th man Schroeder. The only thing unexpected is SGA explosion. And you clearly won the Houston trade - got picks and better player
Across the board for so many reasons I was not seeing it. Even wanted Billy gone yet he is coaching his ass off. Did not see this. CP is key and normally a disgruntled player is bad news. His attitude has changed.
I am happily wrong. Eating crow as I type

I had no idea SGA was this damn good! Get him to the ASG!
SGA with a cool 25/7/5 stat line
Adams with 14/8/3
I cannot believe we keep this up we play 17 games in Jan the schedule is rough with 10 away and 7 home. But in last 6 games we won 5 and beat some contenders too. Wins over Clippers, Hornets, Raptors, Mavs and now Spurs. 8-1 in last 9.
I am just beside myself as a fan. 180 from prior years high expectations and no results.

SGA was one of my faves going into that draft.
Good eye. I never kept up since we had no picks that year. Flew under radar for me. Totally clueless about him til trade. But wow, you were spot on he is amazing yet still learning. No matter what happens with roster he is one of the long term pieces. How Presti got all those draft picks too plus Gallo. Wow. Before I get ahead we are not in LAC league playoff wise. We can rough up the first round opponent tho.
