Damn: KD to the Warriors; Jimmy Butler and Kuminga to Phoenix

[Don Homer]

It’s on them why they are in this whole.

Close to stick with Klay on draft night 2020 knowing that say he was hurt and then they throw him to the bushes anyway.

Meanwhile they don’t get they dude who eventually becomes the ROY and could’ve learned under Steph — the same Steph who is not riding off into the sunset on a high note.

And who would want to be at GSW right now anyway when they are better destinations. Shīt even the Lakers — for the future — look worth building around if Luka doesn’t keep doing his Zion impression and keep eating.

this is all facts

They miscalculated on EVERY SINGLE MOVE since KD left in 2019.

2019-20 - WTF was even that roster. nikkas like Ky Bowman and Omari Spellman were getting rotational minutes. Even if steph didn't break his hand, you had THAT shyt around him?!

2020-21: Steph plays at a level beyond Unanimous and they spend half the season Shoehorning a bust (James Wiseman) into the starting lineup. Trading for Kelly Oubre and Brad Wannamaker. Eric Paschall was trash. And he WILLED that team to the 8 seed. They would have made the playoffs if the front office knew WTF they were doing. Wasted an incredible Curry year

2021-22: Steph WILLS that team to a chip. Jordan Poole took over when steph got injured against boston at the end of the reg season. They win a chip. Then here comes Bob Myers, Kerr and Lacob, three nikkas that LOVE to put their foot in their mouths. Talking about "i had no idea we could win a chip with this roster". goofy ass cacs

2022-23: Lost Otto Porter, Bjelica and GP2, and replace them with garbage rookies (More Wiseman, Patrick Baldwin Jr, Gui Santos). Again, steph wills that garbage into the playoffs and has to set the record for most points in a Game 7 against Sacramento in the 1st round because those other nikkas is ass. BTW steph averaged 29 pgg on 49/42/90 splits (basically 1 percentage point and 1 ppg off from his Unanimous Season)

2023-24: Waste another season because they fail to put anything good around steph. They lose Poole because Draymond has an untreated case of BDP. Trade for CP0, and then get blown out in the play-in game. Let CP0 (a $30 million expiring contract) go for nothing and make no moves to make the roster better. Let Klay go for nothing because they don't wanna give him 1 more year on his contract so it lines up with Steph and Draymond. They shoehorn Kuminga and Podziemski into the starting lineup and it's a disaster

2024-25: Same as last season but we are leaning even more on Kuminga and Podziemski which is why we are underwhelming

Steph's 2022 chip is an all-timer when you consider the context around the organization. Easily one of the worst overall rosters that won a chip. Front Office didn't even think they were a conference finals team.

Seems like Warriors slowly trying to push everyone out and save money while putting in a face like they want to do things

What does Dray have to do with the ineptitude of the organization?

Steph has already made it known that as long as he can play at a high level in GS, he'll ride it out with Dray. The front office was scrambling because they know this team built as is isn't good enough to win anything. Dunleavy wouldn't be doing his job if he wasn't trying to improve the team.

Draymond is a sign of their ineptitude. At this point, it's not insane to say he's had as much of a negative impact off the court as a positive impact on the court. They decided to let him pretend like he owned the building and act like a crazy person without any sort of actual accountability The partial penance is the franchise wasting Steph's final run. This trade getting stepped on is the proof it's related to Draymond. It ain't just the front office.

There's a difference between Dunleavy doing his job to improve and calling every team around the league with this level of desperation. Someone in that building pushed the button.

Yup. And they STILL got help

They got another ring AND the number 2 pick to transition their stars to their chapter and still botched it.

Now way a franchise can survive on a Steph Curry based economy forever

Dray is not anywhere near Dennis Rodman level talent and we see that not every organization would put up with Dennis regardless of his output.

You literally needed Phil Jackson to swoop in.

Dray isn’t worth the headache and never was outside of placating Steph, which is dumb. Dray turned himself into a way more aggressive Thannis who actually got on the court.

Now that might be shortchanging him but we are not taking about Charles Barkley here.

 

[Walt]

KD really hated the idea of sharing the court with Dray again. This shyt was a done deal.


But in the process he detonated my coli credibility... so that means he hates me too. And now I hate KD and Draymond.

as soon as he leaves, people are gonna see how ass they are. They're already seeing it now

Maybe kd realized going from one bad team to another bad team isn’t worrh it, especially if it meant being ridiculed by the fans of “needing steph” and playing with draymond.

KD on either the suns and warriors are a play in team and possibly not even making it to the playoffs.

 

[T-K-G]

It's over breh

At least Give up your sources breh they deserve to be ridiculed your Coli trust is cooked because of their fukkup

Draymond is a sign of their ineptitude. At this point, it's not insane to say he's had as much of a negative impact off the court as a positive impact on the court.

Yes it is insane, because they won four titles with him as a main contributor.

They decided to let him pretend like he owned the building and act like a crazy person without any sort of actual accountability The partial penance is the franchise wasting Steph's final run. This trade getting stepped on is the proof it's related to Draymond. It ain't just the front office.

And how would holding him accountable to the level that would satisfy you have changed anything? Would it have changed them wasting a pick on Wiseman? Would it have changed them mindlessly forcing this two timelines bullshyt? Would it have changed Klay rapidly declining? Would it have changed the natural course of things where dynasties don't last forever, where the Warriors are going through the same thing that every historically great team goes through?

This trade not going through ain't got shyt to do with Dray.

Why would KD go from a situation with two younger stars (with an arguably better support cast) to a place he's already been with an aging core? Does it drastically improve his chances of winning a championship? Or better yet, if Dray was the reason why KD didn't want to back to GS, say the Warriors agree that they will trade Dray, why the hell would KD want to go to a team without a defensive identity anymore this late in the season? Why would KD go back to a team where two of its three founding members were no longer there and he'd have to generate a whole new chemistry with a new-look team?

Going from Phoenix to GS is a sideways move for him.

That ain't got shyt to do with whatever you're trying to blame Draymond for.

There's a difference between Dunleavy doing his job to improve and calling every team around the league with this level of desperation. Someone in that building pushed the button.

Dunleavy is desperate because he knows this path the franchise has been on for the last two seasons is futile.

This is unfortunate for both teams because that trade would've put both of them in a better position I THINK
