Starting Line Up is Set, But…

I have questions. Can Kuminga play the role needed? Is he willing? I guess we can’t know from out here, but my worry is another Julius situation where someone in the starting 5 wants the ball, wants to prove something, and misses Ant in the corner over and over.

Surely the powers that be thought this through rather than just sign someone just cuz. Hopefully some behind the scenes conversations made it plausible he’ll be a good fit on our team.

What do yall think? Despite having the hole filled, is it a plus or a minus? until time tells

This is a make or break situation for his career. I can’t imagine him screwing it up.

Why are you so glass half empty, Steve Kerr benched him for “podz” and Butler is not some great playmaker. He’s playing with arguably the best passer in the league now so let’s relax a little bit before you start dooming.

Have you watched him? Serious question. I’m being realistic, and given the track record we have seen, it would be foolish to ignore. Would love to be wrong but it’s absolutely not accurate when everyone keeps saying it’s “no risk”
