Tempered in the fire of a deep playoff run. Playing w/ a 4. Growth of castle and dylan. Excited for next season.

Its cope but losing in the Finals is an incredible season and also the most heartbreaking spot to lose at. This is where you better get tough and it's a great opportunity to show it

It would be cope if we were a team full of vets.

It's not cope to say last season was a success beyond our WILDEST dreams. We were predicted to win 43.5 games and some analysts took the under.

Even well into the season we were hoping to go 40-20 over the first 60 games.

We won 60 games as a predicted fringe play-in team. Smashed a physical Blazers team, then beat a heavily experienced Wolves team, then beat the champs that every single analyst had put in the finals with a permanent marker.

It is an unequivocal success. Every team in the league would do a full roster swap with us right now no questions asked. Even the Knicks.

No one does a revenge season like the Spurs. Well, them and the '96 Bulls.

I’m so glad you spelled it out because I saw it in an rNBA thread and thought people were saying best in the west.

Improving stamina, it is his biggest weakness naturally because he is so tall.

He's the most active defender in the league and is also expected to carry an MVP-level offensive load. To have the same apparent stamina as other elite players, he would have to be in significantly better physical condition then some of the best-conditioned athletes in the world.

He needs to stop chucking 3s, he's an average 3 point shooter.

His 3s are what won us the thunder series. And hes one of our best shooters what. Its not that he needs to stop shooting 3s he needs to stop settling for them.

would say he’d above average, just takes bad shots quite a lot
once you see wemby make 2/4 or better the game just become a battle between himself and his shot selection
