Holy Cannoli! We’re On The Strive For Five! The Dynasty Rolls On! Golden State Warriors 2022-23 Season Thread

I think Warriors should entertain a trade for Jaylen Brown.

Trade Poole and Wiggins to get Brown

Get rid of Wiggins for a nikka with no heart
I believe in Wiggs more than that nikka

Yes. Brown has achieved more than Wiggins before the Warriors saved his career. He can be a reliable 2nd option unlike Wiggins.

Brown has quit on Mazzula. And he's been terrible this series but he's still better than Wiggins.

You gotta unload Poole and this trade makes sense for both teams.

Then the Warriors can resign Draymond to a 2 year deal with maybe a team option.

Celtics may even throw in Robert Williams and you can give them Kumimga depending if salaries match up.

The Warriors need to seriously consider all options and this is a great trade

None that will actually help. So basically, we're screwed.

Considering that the locker room is thoroughly cooked and a lot of the players we got just aren't that good, there are tough decisions to be made.

Tough decisions can't be made when you're trying to give one of the most inept GMs in the league the biggest GM bag.

So realistically, this offseason will have this emotional ass organization trying to deal with the GM situation, then Klay and Dray wanting max contracts in this eternal cap hell, trying to figure out the locker room issues, wtf to do with the busts and the short contract rotation players, and then trying to get everyone in sync for another playoff push again because we've been having almost an entire cast of new role players every season.

It's just not that sustainable to try and get the ball rolling with all this uncertainty. Last year's chip was a result of everyone being 100% locked in, some chasing a ring and bag for the first time.

Steph making a speech before game 7 on the road in the conditions the team has been in throughout the entire year having no results on the supporting cast says a LOT.

Honestly, I'd rather have them blow it all up. Maximize Steph's window, fukk them kids, fukk them vets, Klay and Dray will have their jerseys retired already, it's all good. Ship em off if they must. New CBA is out there like the reaper, they gotta fix this mess asap.

Yeah that was pretty alarming.

Pat Riley is much better than Bob. The worst thing Pat did was pay Hassan Whiteside, and he managed to get off that contract and still compete. At least hassan made an all-defensive team. Poole is a bench player. He's being compared to JR fukking Smith, who also flourished as a 6th man. You NEVER pay JR Smith that much money.

I'm not sure which direction they go, but i would LIKE the FO to actually do their jobs. That means getting off Poole and Kuminga because they don't fit at all. Find pieces that work. I have no issue with them using their draft picks, but the picks have to fukking fit what they're trying to do. Stop drafting a bunch of "project players", especially when you've shown no ability to develop at all. Like i said in the previous thread, Jimmy's backup guys are undrafted but they're in their mid to late 20s. Steph will be retired by the time Kuminga, Moody, PBJ, Rollins are in their mid to late 20s. Steph will be 39 by the time Poole is 27. He helped us get that title last season and we thank him, but him being a Warriors has run its course. Like, if the Warriors used their 19th pick to draft Kris Murray and moved their leftover 2nd round picks to get Jaime Jacquez, 2 4-year guys (already older than Kuminga, Poole, Moody, PBJ and Rollins) with good BBIQ who fit what the warriors wanna do, i'd have no issue.

I can't name you names specifically, but the Warriors gotta move poole, who is set to make over 30 million dollars on average over the next 4 years. You just don't pay that much money to a 6th man. I get that the Warriors would like to play him as a starter when Steph is out, but what about when steph ISN'T out? His defense is never gonna be good enough to justify that contract. You see what the Heat are doing w/o Herro? You see how teams that had Lou Williams and Jamal Crawford never won shyt? Inefficient bench scoring doesn't matter. If you were to replace Poole with Alex Caruso, or a 31 year old Andre Iguodala, or Josh Hart, your chances of winning would increase greatly. What they don't give you in PPG, they give in rebounds, playmaking, wing defense, etc. Poole's PPG is not worth it. As i said earlier, Kuminga is not a good fit for this team. Even taking away all the "attitude" talk, as a player he's a bad fit. He can't rebound, shoot, dribble, or pass. He was only drafted high because he can jump high. But you look at the other wings in that draft, like Franz, Trey Murphy, Giddey, Keegan Murray, etc. They aren't super athletic, but they have good feel and IQ and are way more helpful to their teams than kuminga. Keegan was a rookie starter on a playoff team. Even when wiggins was out, and we didnt have GP2 healthy, Kerr never even thought to start Kuminga at the 3 or 4. Why? because he has none of the foundational skills needed for a wing, and if you play him at the PF spot, he's a woefully bad rebounder. There are too many issues with his game, and he's not gonna fix then overnight. If he ever fixes it, Steph will be 40+ years old by then. So we will waste the remaining years Steph has for a guy that would have us in the lottery regardless.

That's what people gotta understand. As soon as steph retires, we are gonna be a top 5 lottery pick team, reliably. So we might as well give Steph the best chances at competing because it's all downhill from here regardless

All signs point to dealing Poole and Kuminga this off-season.

Both for roster fit reasons, and movable salary reasons.

Let's see if the FO can get this done.

 

[Volt]

I'd love Lacob to blow it all up and somehow get Giannis and Butler

But realistically, who should the Warriors go for this offseason? As much as the team has very obvious problems, I'm not really noticing people with the heart and drive this team needs available...

Brown hasn’t achieved shyt
The fukk you talking about
The same Brown that’s Stephs son
Wiggins was the second best player on the squad last year
Missed the majority of the season and still was a better option during the Kings series
And the Lakers series before getting peoples elbowed
Brown is not the choice for this team
The Warriors need a reliable back up PG
A lanky SF/PF
And a Big Man
Brown is and will never be the answer
You smokin loud pack if you think that’s the trade to be made

Dumb nikkaz man who want to dap for likes.

Brown is aggressive plays defense. His handle is suspect when pressured which leads to turnovers.

But imagine Brown having tons of space because of Steph and Klay. Imagine Draymond finding him for dunks layups when teams hedge Steph on the high pick and roll.

That's gonna be hard as fukk to stop but hey I don't know basketball I guess

I’m not going to keep going back and forth with you
You clearly don’t know what the fukk you talking about
And definitely ain’t a Warriors fan
If you think Jaylen fukking Brown
A nikka that’s on the brink of getting swept
And was a no show Game 5 and 6 of last years finals
Is better than Wiggins who has proven/unlocked himself
Then by all means, keep yelling like an idiot
I don’t posts for daps loved one
shyt I’m probably one of the most hated posters on this entire forum
So that was dumb on your part for even posting that
Good night and enjoy my dikk and nuts in your mouth beloved
