Voted Poole for WW because I think his contribution most exceeded the recent trends. Green has been rocking more often than not including while Steph was out, and Poole has been in the upswing but this was a good one for him:

- Scored a buncha points including a nice 3 down the stretch to help put it away

- No clutch turnovers

- Attentive effort overall

Between this kid looking more comfortable, Klay, Dray, and Steph all in shape, Loon being steady as usual, and DDV contributing effort off the bench, the rotation is looking a lot more like it ought to.

Now we need Wiggs to shake off the rust and get fired up, Kuminga to come back strong, and a couple other details to round into place. Lamb contract? Wiseman/Iguodala/JMG health? Big-man on a 10-day? Moody stepping up? Those would probably all be nice boosts though not strictly necessary.

Anybody know why I refer to the NBA Championship with the abbreviated version of 'Ship instead of the commonly used 'Chip? HINT. On the way to the 1st 'Ship of our Dynasty, one player retorted in a post-game interview ''We are going to be ''Shampionship''; anybody remember who it was?....lol

I know the bottom feeders are all aiming for the very top of the draft but if im Houston, id hope for that second pick, scoop Scoot, and build with Scoot, Sengun, and Jabari Smith as your hubs. I would look to get maximum value for Jalen and KPJ in offseason trades

Was great to see and hear Steph get into Lamb when he fouled KP when we were going on a run. Don't often see him do that so demonstrably.

Read some press releases suggesting that Kuminga returned to practice on this past Thursday, which indicates he could return for Thursday game, and that JMG is also cleared to practice. Wiseman seems still not yet cleared to practice, but he's probably soon after. Would be nice to have some bigger bodies around again...

He got bigger, stronger, then left.

What happened in 1949 that a team would be named after it? I just don't get football. Indonesia became an independent nation, is that what this is?

Anyone watching the Cowboys destroy the Bucs? Cowboys' kicker missed FOUR straight extra points, after missing his last try in the regular season. I'd be surprised if he's around for next week's game.

OT, two headlines I’ve seen recently:

1. Anthony Davis ramping up!

2. Lakers hope to get Anthony Davis back before ASB!

Umm… the ASB is a long time away…
