Lakers signing Tristan Kardashian and some other cat for the rest of the playoffs… This would be a good time for Meyers to sign Cousins…

That’s asking too much tho lol

(time stamped)








Meyers sounds like he likes Boogie, but didn't exactly give him a ringing endorsement. Hell even maybe even hinder his chances of getting signed this season by a team.



It's ridiculous how Meyer Leonard and Tristin Thompson are on an NBA roster. Boogie definitely deserves another chance especially with the Warriors after putting his body on the line during the 2019 playoff run.

With all the Looney Ironman praise, he's health ain't guarantee with his past history of injuries. I still can't believe Warrior management essentially wasted two roster spots by signing Lester Quinones, Iggy and not sign one backup big

I got PTSD from that season. It's like I've erased it from my memory. Pretty hard to relive the glory of the regular season through Finals, without the bitter pill at the end.

It's bittersweet for sure.

But that season has so many dope games and moments tho right through the playoffs too. Shame how it ended but it should be acknowledged more than it is, fukk the haters.

Klay's 3 keys to Dubs playoff success.

1. Value the ball more
2. Take great shots
3. Communicate on defense

And there it is.

Here’s a simple summary of the small-, medium- and cosmic-picture stakes piling up on the Warriors as they get set for their fateful first-round series with the Sacramento Kings:

The best way for the Warriors’ foundational figures to keep this together beyond the postseason is to win this series then keep on winning for as long as possible. Given the reality of the contracts, dollars and ages involved, that’s the best, worthiest and probably only way.

If the Warriors go through everybody and win the fifth championship of this era, of course there will be every incentive on all sides to go for No. 6 in 2023-24. At minimum, if the Warriors beat the Kings and avoid a blowout loss in the second round, there will be reasons and revenue to avoid a hard reset.

But if the Warriors look creaky against the Kings and lose this series … well, there’s not much doubt that this thing could start breaking apart. If the Warriors can’t get past the Kings, this might be the last time for this core group. Draymond Green can opt out this summer and become a free agent. Bob Myers will be a free agent, too. It won’t be anything close to cheap to retain either one of them. And if things go sour in these playoffs, the Warriors could try to move off of Klay Thompson’s remaining contracted year or retool by seeing what they can get for Jordan Poole.

Andrew Wiggins cleared for Game 1 of NBA playoffs vs. Kings; out since Feb. 13 http://espn.com/app


SAN FRANCISCO -- Golden State Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins has been cleared to play in Game 1 of the team's first-round series against the Sacramento Kings.

"Andrew looks great, feeling good and is ready to go," Warriors coach Steve Kerr said after practice Thursday afternoon.

Wiggins hasn't played since Feb. 13, missing the Warriors' final 25 games of the regular season because of a family matter. He was away from the team for two months before returning for the last week but sat out of the Warriors' last three games as he worked on his conditioning.

Regarding Wigs conditioning, Coach Kerr said he is a "thoroughbred"

I know what he means, but...
