It’s A Splash Bros Reunion! Are You Kuminga To The Poole Party? Warriors 2022 Season Thread

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

My Stan goggles may be clouding my judgement but I truly think we can make a deep run in the West. There is no overpowered juggernaut in our way.

@Gil Scott-Heroin may have to give me props in a few months

They can definitely make a deep run in the West, I don't think that was ever in question. I've already stated they'll beat the Suns, but realistically winning a title, I don't see that in their immediate future. The team's weaknesses will rear their ugly head eventually.

It would take a cotdamn miracle and would honestly be one of the most improbable title wins ever if they were to end the season with the Larry O'Brien.

Finally the playoffs

Regular season became when Steph got injured and kill all the excitement I had to watch the Big 3 play

Even if they lose in the western conference finals or the NBA Finals I think the season should be considered a success. Players like Poole, Kuminga and Moody will gain valuable playoff experience and will be better versions of themselves next season.

Basically I think you’re criticism is a year too early. If the Warriors aren’t serious contenders next year then I will feel the same way as you.

The problem with this is, Dray, Klay and Steph aren't getting any younger. We don't know what state the three will be in next season (Dray's body is already giving out on him). These versions of them are better now than they will be next season, so this is the time that should be maximised to make the most of their remaining time left. This season was all the more important to get right as it will be TWO years in a row now they've essentially wasted. When you have two generational franchise pieces like Steph and Dray, you do NOT waste a second; this organisation has wasted seconds, minutes, hours, days, months and years.

You may not see it right now, but in 5, 10 years, you'll realise how much of a mistake it was not surrounding those three with enough help to win a championship.

Sounds like he ain’t playing game 1 at the very least.

Hope my words don't come back to haunt me but I would much rather play Denver than Minny first round, especially with the uncertainty around Steph

 

[aceboon]

what is up with the Warriors and reporting injuries? I don't ever recall them mentioning he had a bone bruise, yet it was included in yesterday's update. Compare the 4/1 update to the update from yesterday:

“Continues to make good progress”. That tells me he’s playing game 1…

I feel the same. I don’t feel super confident in the warriors against most of the playoff teams to be honest. Funny enough one of the teams I do feel confident against is the suns

To be fair, you low key always have a pessimistic outlook until proven otherwise. Remember when Poole struggled at the beginning of the season and you said he was crowned too early with preseason hype.

You right. I just really worry about our depth at center against these teams with skilled centers.
