lmao

much better defender than curry and higher motor. Unstoppable going to the basket. Pure competitor. Curry is lazy he shoots and jogs back on defense, westbrook is hound constantly going 110% and playing defense every single game. I saw curry play cleveland last year and he was so lazy I pointed it out how he was just jogging around.. & then kyrie lit his ass up for a cleveland comeback

Westbrook vs. Curry is a really interesting question I haven't thought much about actually. I need to think about that for a little while.

Curry will have the longer career because Russ's game is predicted on athleticism and while Steph is the more pure point guard Russ will just single handedly wreck a defense. Perfect combination of size, athleticism with shooting ability and a willingness to destroy his opponent.

no telling who will have a longer career. Curry was hurt a lot early on in his career, who says that he's no longer able to get injured again? Same with westbrook.. and regardless we aren't talking about who will have again longer career, the argument is who is the better player all around between the 2 RIGHT NOW.

Curry is the 3rd best defensive point guard in the league this year using defensive real plus minus. Westbrook is 17th.

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      By strato · Posted

      Yep. I was hoping for and calling for a day three guy. But I didn’t research the position to say if we should or should‘t have jumped at a particular guy at a particular spot.    And everything I read said it was a poor draft for RBs depth wise. I guess when Seattle takes a backup RB in the 1st, that kind of backs that up.    I definitely think we should keep 4 running backs and if King can play well enough then keep him too.    I believe I heard Canales say we are a running team (talking about drafting a WR he will be needing to block as well as catch). Well if we are gonna be a running team by identity we don’t need to stock the WR room to overflowing. If one room has to sacrifice, it should not be the RB room given our circumstances.

      Dan had a great draft

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By 45catfan · Posted

      I just saw the funniest thing...or very disappointing, depending how you handle misery. A guy on YouTube did a 2027 'way too early' mock draft.  If I told you the simulator has the Panthers selecting in the top 10 , what would you say?  If I told you it was pick #8 and only two QBs were taken in the top 7, what would you say?  If I told you this dude had us taking a defensive player, what would you say?
