You'll never get another franchise player if you mistreat your franchise players. Sometimes a part of winning a chip is showing those guys the respect they deserve in their Twilights before making another tilt at another ring
They want easy solutions and I get it, Steph in his Prime, don’t want to lose him to another team.
The Knicks bailed on their Finals squads before they got old and have spent the next 20 years being irrelevant for all but 1 maybe 2 seasons.
Doesn’t matter if the warriors don’t win a chip for another 20 years. U never trade curry and treat him with utmost respect. That’s how you build a culture and a fan base
This isn't 2k.
You don’t just blow up a dynasty, the warriors can blow up their entire group from curry down and they will have less than a 1% chance of getting anyone even close to curry’s level. He already won then 4 championships im sure warriors fans would rather see him get old and fall off than trade him.
Even our current roster I would rather keeping running it back until we can’t anymore, we have a better chance of being trash and landing free agents that rival our current core over getting any picks that will turn into anything better than a duo of current bron and ad from a trade.
Lmao GSW fans would burn the arena down if they ever see Steph in a different jersey.
Using your logic, the Warriors very likely wouldn’t have won in 2022
Pro teams have two goals, winning championships and making money. Even if you can no longer win a championship you can still make a ton of money if you have marquee players. So no, ride those aging stars into the sunset. It is the right move.
If they can’t host playoff games because they aren’t good enough to make the playoffs how do they make more money?
bro never heard of how the league shares money with every team
Yeah all that money rolling in is probably killing them
bro thinks he’s a gm
No, I think you're overreacting to a bad start. Clearing out the core to a dynasty mid-season would go down as one of the stupidest moves ever.
I want whatever OP is smoking. So many bad takes in so little space.
OP at good food and started speaking nonsense 🤣
I think you’re delusional
Yea Lakers definitely should’ve blown it up and traded Lebron James the greatest player ever for sure for sure
He’s not Lebron the greatest ever anymore. Other guys have past him. That’s like saying 2016 Kobe was 1999-2013 era Kobe.
2016 Kobe averaged 18-3-2 and led the Lakers to a stellar 17-65 record. 2022 Lebron averaged 29-8-7 and went to the WCF. One of these two is not like the other.
The warriors are irrelevant. I don’t think about them at all.
sometimes opinions should be kept to yourself
I'll go down the Draymond, Klay, and Curry until the end.
Nursing home is so fucking funny
Weren't lakers in the conference finals last year with I juries? Didn't warriors win the championship in 2022? What mistakes lol?
Honestly not really the proved they could still win a championship with the right team. Maybe they need to move on from cp3 but their core might still have enough in the tank to make a run especially if they get lucky with injuries or matchups
Warriors are not making a mistake right now however the key thing is whether they resign klay and for how much.
the splash brothers r literally the only reason the warriors could afford the stadium and move to san fran. they already alienated a lot of fans by that. you can’t just completely change the product slap a warriors logo on it and say buy it. it doesn’t work
