Will repost my recent Warriors thoughts here tonight. Stay tuned!

"Since the 2018-19 NFL season, the 49ers have used only one 1st or 2nd round draft pick on an offensive lineman: Mike McGlinchey."

Another bet I made is Ace Bailey ROY +850. You might remembered I loved him in the draft.

The Bovada line moved down the next day to +500.

feltbot @feltbot.bsky.social · 1d

Speaking of Curry MVP chances, I just bet $75 (their max) to win $7500 on Bovada.

That’s a lottery ticket I like.

I also bet the Warriors for the championship at 20-1. Reasons:

1) Curry could have an MVP season with the hand slap rule change. It is certain he will break the record for 4 pt plays.

And in the playoffs… unguardable.

feltbot @feltbot.bsky.social · 1d

Worst case scenario, Kuminga goes in a simple flip for a 3&D wing like Herb Jones.

And the Warriors with Herb Jones… are a championship squad.

feltbot @feltbot.bsky.social · 1d

3) No one seems to be connecting Giannis to the Warriors, but I am absolutely certain it’s being discussed. Giannis wants out, he wants Curry, and the Ws are uniquely positioned to land him.

I make the odds of it happening at significantly better than 20-1.

And if it does happen, it’s over.

feltbot @feltbot.bsky.social · 1d

2) There is no more talented team in the league, and if Horford stays healthy they will no longer be subject to bullying inside.

3) There is a significant chance that the Warriors will be a much better team after the Kuminga trade. More on this in my next post discussing championship odds.

feltbot @feltbot.bsky.social · 1d

2) They are undeniably better this season. Horford and Post completely transform the team’s spacing. If Melton is back healthy and either he or Moody move Podz to backup PG - only spot where his defense isn’t a liability - that will also be huge.

feltbot @feltbot.bsky.social · 1d

I have reconsidered this and bet Warriors over 46.5 wins. Reasons:
1) If they don’t go over they don’t make the playoffs. That’s unacceptable to the franchise this year - they’re all-in. So Kerr won’t sacrifice wins over the JK showcase…

@darshanvancity.bsky.social

feltbot @feltbot.bsky.social · 5d

Solid over bets aren’t based solely on talent. There are several complicating factors to this team’s regular season record:
1) age and injuries
2) Rest
3) no need to chase reg season wins
4) the first half will be dedicated to a JK showcase
5) Major mid-season trade

Too much of a 50-50 prop for me

feltbot @feltbot.bsky.social · 1d

The last couple seasons have completely exposed Shanahan’s system. You can’t win in the NFL with crap lineman, no matter how many superstar skill players you have.

You can’t even keep your QBs healthy.

Ask him if he felt “absolute dread” when Obama was elected

Mark Misoshnik 🏴 @misoshnik.bsky.social · 2d

Lmao is this supposed to be a bad thing?

A tweet from Bari Weiss that says “"It's shaken me to my core," a lieutenant said of Mamdani's unexpected victory in June. "The absolute dread I feel is palpable.
"
Today in @TheFP our @Olivia_Reingold talks to the cops who say they will walk if Zohran Mamdani is elected in November:”

It's really funny that The Art of War is treated as this like alpha male book when it's clearly meant to be read by ancient Chinese failsons because it's all "please don't forget you have to feed your troops" and "if someone asks if you're going to attack them consider lying about it"

LJ Cryer caught my attention. That 3 pt shooting, speed and handle plays well in the league. Not to mention the Warriors are desperate for speed. Also has that college championship ice water in his veins.

No room for a 2-way contract? I’d rather have him than Spencer.

feltbot @feltbot.bsky.social · 4d

Continue to struggle appreciating Podz’ game. He was the slowest non-center on the floor last night, as well as being dwarfed by the Blazers long wings, and it showed in the score.

Interested to see his plus/minus if he’s restricted to the second unit this season.

feltbot @feltbot.bsky.social · 4d

Love Will Richard - great defender, solid shooter and finisher. 84% from the line last season. And not least, competitor.

See him entering the rotation in the second half of the season - after the big Kuminga trade clears out the logjam - if not before.

feltbot @feltbot.bsky.social · 4d

Takeaways from last night’s Warriors Blazers game:

Post continues to show he’s the real deal. Not just the 3 pointer, but some nice inside moves, as predicted

His overhyped matchup, Hansen Yang, is not the real deal. No shot, no D can’t be overcome. Bust.
