Steph Lost A Splash Brother, But Gained A Splash Buddy - The Golden State Warriors 2024-25 Season Thread

[JesusFOREVER]

Klay is terrible man, he needs to come to terms with his lack of speed and burst and play a slow man game, dude tryna move likes hes 26 still

 

[BigMoneyGrip]

Klay has killed the momentum 3 fukkin times..

Taking a heat check 3 that came off long and resulted in a transition basket..

We when started another run he turns over the ball

And now smoking a fukkin wide open layup off a Kuminga steal smh

 

[Piff Tannen]

Chef deserves better klay blowing fastbreak layups ; Wiggins looking weedplate as ever. Btw where is @Gil Scott-Heroin

 

[yseJ]

Wiggins looks like he doesnt give a shyt about bball anymore

Klay refusing to sacrifice shyt even tho Father Time isnt even knocking on his door, Father Time literally is behind Klay aint no way this dude getting 30m per $

Dubs really have no one to help Steph score when he doesnt have a great shooting night. Have some pieces here and there but not anyone who can give a consistent 20ppg without being a bricklayer

 

[Sauce and Footwork]

Not a warriors fan… but What the fukk happened to Wiggins????

 

[BigMoneyGrip]

TJD comes in and immediate impact and podz with 2 quick baskets lmaoo

Kerr is a fukkkn clown…

It’s time he start Minga over Wiggins and start giving Moody more of Klay’s minutes it’s that simple

 

[Don Homer]

Kuminga and wiggins getting cooked by Mike Conley

Klay Thompson

No shot creation outside of Steph

Steph still has to carry and he's almost 36

worst frontcourt finishing team in the league

Kuminga plays over 22 mins, and only has 2 rebounds and shot 2/9FG and 0/3 3P. I was told he was taking a leap this year

 

[Ohene]

Disappointing

 

[OaklandCertified]

GET CHEF SOME HELP!!

 

[Surreal]

The run was all time

I thank Curry for being one of the best players of his generation and changing the sport

Clap for em

What a clown.

Whenever I'm critical of GS, most of you guys shyt on me but I'm gonna spill my thoughts again. That Draymond punch and the aftermath exposed Golden State's lack of leadership all throughout the organization.

On the Draymond front, they've never checked him so he runs around doing and saying whatever he wants because he knows there will never be any consequences for his actions.

All last season, almost any mistake by the young guys (Poole, Moody and Kuminga) landed them on the bench for Lamb/Jerome and in Kerr's doghouse. Meanwhile, Klay and Draymond were allowed to operate with impunity, regardless of if it was hurting the team. So now, you've got a team that's hostile to young players. Klay shot them out of the series with my Lakers by himself.

They could have addressed this stuff in the offseason. For that, Bob Meyers chose to leave instead of doing his job and making tough decisions. That led to Poole getting jettisoned, Draymond getting his big contract and still taking his victory lap, constantly talking about their improved team chemistry and Klay in limbo, probably upset he doesn't have a new deal (he doesn't deserve).

Knowing they can't bring non-established players into the system, they traded Poole for a 38 year old point guard and nothing else.

So you're stuck with a team where Kerr won't develop guys or hold any of the vets accountable, the highest payroll in the league and basically no assets to improve the team besides your future firsts (I think they can trade three of them). Kuminga and Moody are fringe rotation players, so nobody's giving up anything valuable for them. Wiggins looks completely disinterested but maybe someone would take a chance on him because of his 2022 run.

This leaves Steph wasting his remaining prime years carrying a trash heap with almost no hope to contend again barring a miracle.
