Goombah, First I heard about this injury was reading your post.Haven't watched GSW much this year but I it will be a more difficult adjustment to KD, then Steph.
Steph played point guard, but he's not really a traditional point..Livingston is, and on a team full of shooters with championship experience...it was smooth transition.
I'm assuming KD replaced Harrison Barnes in lineup..and not sure who his backup is since Barnes is gone.
I'm old enough to remember when Bogut was a decent player, pre injury. I like the pickup and thought Cavs should have kept T. Mozgov, who was a good payer for them. Think there's an element of gamesmanship in the pickup of Bogut..as the pickup of Anderson V. was for GSW last year. Refs won't allow Bogut to plsy the goon role against GSW like he did to Lebron in past finals. He'll get tossed for breathing on Curry. I like the depth the Cavs have....they match up well with whoever comes out of the West....including the Spurs.
I agree with you about Mozgov. But the Lakers offered crazy money so I can't fault the player for cashing in. Moz didn't matchup well vs. GS, but no team should build to play against one opponent.
I think GS signed another Barnes in the wake of the KD injury. My best guess is that having Durant out will help the guards. Curry has been mired in a slump, so this will help him get some more shots.
This is one of my fave times of the sports year. Spring training, March madness, and meaningful NBA and NHL games.
