Golden State Warriors Thread


Montsta

Recommended Posts

Sorry, there is no general NBA forum so I guess this will have to work. Me and *freefua* were talking about it and we both agree that we are so glad the Dubs didn't throw in Klay Thompson to get Kevin Love. He masks so many of Curry's defensive inefficiencies and went off for 41 last night after signing a max contract extension.

I liked Mark Jackson a lot but it's looking like moving on was the right idea and going with Kerr looks brilliant so far.

Looking forward to seeing how this team (and this thread) moves along over the course of the season.

I really do see both sides of the Thompson for K-love argument. 

 

 

At the end of the day, Thompson is much better suited to play alongside Curry than he would be solo in Minnesota, whereas Wiggins fits on any team- so I think Minny actually got a better deal

 

 

Would the Warriors be better with Love? Offensively yes, defensively god no. 

 

 

They went with continuity and the chance Thompson develops into something special over score more points right now. Can't fault them for that

Considering this forum is dead I don't think it's going to kill anyone if me and Montsta have a W's thread.

@Rusty_SFChron: Steve Kerr said he will limit minutes of Ezeli, Livingston and Rush tonight. He'd like to limit more guys in the team's first back-to-back.

Yes! A possible Rush sighting tonight

Even in these couple of games so far you can see how much Klay's improved. He's taking the ball to the hoop more and he's gotten stronger.

Just need to trade for Greg Monroe and we're set!

I wonder if Detroit would go for a Lee/Monroe swap. Lee has one year remaining on his huge deal. Throw in Harrison if you have too. The Warriors have to dump either Lee or Iggy if they want to resign Draymond. Like the Panthers, we're already close to the cap for next season

41 points. Yea he sure is living up to it.

Charlotte fans are hyping their players but nitpicking others. Klay is a STUD. Worth every dime of that contract.

klay overrated. He's a shooter and a pretty good defender. He gets open from the defensive attention to curry/iggy/lee & also he flourishes due to have 4 good/great passers on the floor with him all at once in Curry Igoudala Bogut & Lee

No defense is worried about Iggy.

I'm guessing you don't watch alot of Warriors games? Klay's slowly becoming a beast in all areas of the game. I'm sure his 41 from last night is posted on youtube somewhere, go watch it.

    • Ummm not sure adding anther 5'9 180 pound soaking wet forward is the way to go here.....    
    • What has happened in HS athletics busted full force into the college world with this NIL/transfer portal stuff. HS sports has been jacked up for a long time now. You have all these "prep schools" that are basically just diploma mills for athletes who hoover up all the good athletes they can get and they're all on scholarship. Then they go out and recruit decent athletes with rich parents to come onboard and pay outrageous tuition while they tout their success at getting their athletes college scholarships. Yeah, those athletes getting college scholarships are the same ones you're giving scholarships to so that you can use them to recruit the rich kids whose parents can pay for it all. You see the same thing in youth travel ball leagues. The whole thing is just getting crazy.
    • It's your right to refer to it as vague, but it still flouts the theory of "zero evidence" that Tepper is changing. Here's another: "Carolina Panthers head coach Dave Canales and general manager Dan Morgan are reportedly being given a larger leadership role within the organization. Panthers owner David Tepper 'has taken a more hands-off approach of late,' according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. 'He's trying to trust Canales and GM Dan Morgan to get it right, knowing that the roster requires patience in its current state,' Fowler wrote. 'We shall see if he holds to that.'" https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10146782-report-panthers-david-tepper-has-taken-a-more-hands-off-approach-to-team   ""David Tepper just wants to win and he's gonna supply everything that we need to win.. Things are changing around here and things are looking really positive" ~ Dan Morgan  https://x.com/PatMcAfeeShow/status/1917639137550627107?t=6vgo8yXTO6eD0Gb55hyzNg&s=19   From about 2:15-6:35, Julian Council, Locked on Panthers, gives his take on whether Tepper seems to be changing (and specifically referenced the war room in his analysis):    Dean Jones of Cat Crave on David Tepper in the war room. "He was an innocent bystander throughout a hugely important decision, placing full trust in Morgan and Tilis to make the right call." Jones also quoted Pat McAfee: "What I noticed though, at one point, they looked at (David) Tepper to get an answer, Tepper didn’t say sh*t. All anybody has said about Tepper is that he’s hands-on, hands-on, hands-on. Too handsy, too involved. He’s not letting the football people do their thing. We just watched in the biggest moment for their franchise, a top ten pick, he just sat there and let everybody do their jobs. I think if you’re a Panthers fan, you love everything you saw there." https://catcrave.com/silence-from-david-tepper-becomes-panthers-loudest-victory Granted, you're not getting a major headline here, but that's not going to happen anyway. Fowler isn't exactly a nobody, everybody knows McAfee, and you also have some locals that follow the team (including Dean Jones). Of course you have a right to believe that Tepper hasn't really changed, but to say there is no evidence that he just may be changing is not really true. It's just not. Hate the guy, but the way that he has handled this current regime is different than he handled previous teams, and his silence in the war room and publicly in general is different than years back.
