    Sorry for not making another Carmelo thread but...

    Assuming we get Anthony, we have three players 1-3 who can match up with their (loose) counterparts on the Warriors. We even have a gritty vet big and a sixth man dynamo.

    But we have to have an answer to Green. He's their defensive lynchpin and second best playmaker.

    Is that player on our roster, a diamond in the rough? Is there a FA out there who could potentially fill the role? Or are we just going to have to make up for the lack of fourth star with shooters/defenders?

    Getting someone exactly like Green would be impossible... but maybe someone whos tough enough to guard bigs but mobile enough to switch onto wings. A good defender who can rebound and hit a catch and shoot 3. No way we will find a big as good a passer but thats why we have two of the best in the game at that category.

    Um we have someone who matches up with draymond. Its called ariza on durant, tucker on draymond. The whole point of tucker was to defend the warriors better.

    Man this site needs to block creation of threads from dummies.

    And if you are trying to talk about on offense, then thats even dumber because we dont need their same offense. We do what we do. Not dictated by them . Draymond can pass but thats about it. He doesnt do much on offense most games.

    Carmelo is a way better offensive player than draymond. Cmon man. Stupid thread

    Nene? Honestly our front court has problems. #1 being depth, #2 being dirty work. We don't have any front-court bangers except the oft-injured old Brazilian.
