I actually think clearly our biggest flaw is 3 point shooting, being that we were 28th in the NBA last season beyond the arc and we have the same lineup returning. 3 point shooting should open up with Zion's addition, but if we can't take advantage of defenses collapsing Zion by hitting our 3's, then there could be problems.

I agree with this. We need a lot of internal improvement in this area this season. I think we do improve a lot, but ultimately when we get knocked out of the playoffs I think we’ll point to a 3 pt disparity as a main culprit.

3-pt shooting will be just fine. We'll have the right people taking a huge majority of them as opposed to last year when we basically had the WRONG people taking a HUGE number of 3s. We should end up around 12th or so in the league...in 3-pt %. Just need to make sure & incorporate a bit more 3-pt shooting into our overall offense. Plenty of open looks will be there...assuming we'll make the extra pass.
Problems are obviously "rim protection" and of course...overall defense from the "5". Gonna take a while to figure out how to remedy those 2 problems.

who has a guy to cover zion straight up.
lakers
minnesota
gsw
clippers
memphis
so it's not a slam dunk pels win a series at all. finals talk is premature. too many questions. lets see 10 games.
ideally get a first round home series and play Dallas.
maybe the round 2 star sprains a toe. it happens.
gsw played 6 in round 2 with memphis. ja sat for 4 5 and 6. bizarrely memphis slaughtered gsw without ja game 4.
they missed him in 5 and 6. bane had a disk out and Adams missed 2 including a loss, with covid. so 2 starters out and another not 100%.
that's the ticket.
Kyrie dominated curry.
then Kyrie is out.
love is out.
ta da. gsw wins.
next time green is tossed. gsw loses.
bogut out. gsw loses.
Klay out. kd out. gsw loses.
