And people blindly say that if KD coming off the Achilles came back to the Warriors they would still winning championships hell the fukk no.
In 2019 they were a three and half man group going against actual teams that were at minimum eight men deep. KD blowing his Achilles gave the team cover from the owner down to other players for them to remain arrogant and stupid.
Also their local media is toxic as fukk why on the day of NBA Trade deadline are you letting media ask a 25 year old who is only making 14 million on a expiring contract (this is his seventh season this is when players get their first true chance at actual free agency where their contract can’t be matched by the team they are on) if he’s going to take a pay cut to come off the bench for the Warriors next season ? It’s dumb idiot shyt like that which is going to make other people not wanting to go there. They already don’t have money
Feel bad for Steph but next season he’s making 45.7 million before you account for lost revenue off Covid.
They could’ve drafted Melo but instead they drafted James Wiseman because when he went to dinner with them he didn’t have an agent when Bob Myers was a agent for a long time. That’s why I said previously that the Warriors operate on a weirdo version of respectability politics because only Kerr can be outspoken, they continue to add cats to the team that don’t have high motors, and they feed info to media(podcasts count as media) shytting on their own players who aren’t docile, and a few other things it’s one of the reasons they lost the finals in 2016. After that finals Kerr should’ve been fired. They wasted the potential of Jordan Bell, when Iggy talked about how they put pressure on KD they shipped his ass to Memphis, When Klay ruptured his Achilles before the draft they blamed him for not being around the team during a pandemic, Draymond and Kerr almost came to blows but yet when a book was made about the “end of the dynasty” KD was on the cover.
