Would you prefer to have Myers instead of Dunleavy right now?

[SpreeChokeJob]

Myers. He has better understanding of being a GM. He’s more of a manager than Dunleavy. Dunleavy is a scout, but he doesn’t have the interpersonal skills to deal with the players. Myers would have been ok if he stuck in his area and there was someone like Nellie or West overseeing personnel decisions as a consultant, but then Lacob inserted himself into that role and everything fell apart.

[thunderdunk]

MDJ. No more stupid, panicky contracts like Poole's.

[dk1115]

TBH, I think both of them have done good jobs. Other than the Wiseman draft pick, which I still don't mind much, and signing Jordan Poole to that crazy contract, Myers help construct a 4-championship run.

Mike Dunleavy somehow got rid of Poole's contract and got some good pieces in return. He got Jimmy Butler for basically Andrew Wiggins. We had no first round draft picks this year, and signing free agents are contingent to the Kuminga situation, so not really sure how that's on him.

Bob was doing so well until the Wiseman debacle unfolded.

He was doing "well" until his mistakes couldn't be masked by Curry.

The best things that happened under Bob Myer were the Iguodala and Durant acquisitions, but even those happened because of Curry.

Doe anyone honestly believe that the Warriors would have been WORSE had someone of Mike Dunleavys caliber been hired instead of Myers? I can only imagine the upside.

Honestly. Is anyone really that happy that Bob Myers was "keeping things together" during the Curry and Kerr years? He didn't even have to do anything. Every decision he made could have been throwing a dart at the wall. I have little doubt that GROK would do a better job than Bob Myers at managing this team.

[Badly Browned]

The best thing Myers did was dump DLo early and turning him into a #7 pick.

Just a shame the actual drafting wasn't as good.

[East Bay Sports]

Bob Myers stinks ****

[East Bay Sports]

I'm really not sure what Bob was good at. Supposedly managing Draymond, but Draymond's punch happened under him so ...

It wasn't drafting. He was one of the worst drafter in the NBA.

Was it trades? I guess he was able to dump salary using 1sts but he still had to use a 1st. The KD trade and Dlo trades were good.

Andre choose the warriors by himself. KD choose the warriors by himself.

I think the best thing was that he had connections to other agents/gms so he had an open line communications to the industry?

He's also terrible on tv. I feel dumber just listening to him on ESPN.

He is by far the worst part of an unwatchable ESPN panel. Holy smokes terrible doesn't even begin to do justice for how bad he is on tv. To the point that I feel bad for him. Everyone thinks he is dog water

Did Myers keep that team together? Didn't he make fun of KD at one of the parades? That's just great morale booster for one of the most sensitive superstars in the league.

One of the things that irked KD was that it was always KD + the core, or Warriors + KD, so he never truly felt like he belonged. And making fun of him because he wasn't part of the core at the parade probably really ruined that relationship. I think he did that in 2018, and then 2019 KD was completely checked out ...

Good it was not a good look for him if he wanted another job. And now I can stop cringing every time he's on tv.

Someone will toss him a huge bag to be POBO just on name recognition, owners seem to be dumb like that. He catches way too much hate on here though. He did a great job except blowing those two high lottery picks.

Well, blowing those lottery picks was a pretty big deal. What did Myers do right? Getting D-Lo in the trade for KD, then flipping to MIN, was an excellent transaction that he then wasted by picking JK. But still a good series of trades.

Bob is already the President of Sports for teams around the globe...

Bob Myers is leaving his role as an NBA analyst for ESPN to join Harris Blitzer Sports & Entertainment as its president of sports, HBSE announced on Friday.

"Our goal has been to hire, grow, and retain the best and brightest executives in the world and we are a stronger, more dynamic organization with the addition of Bob Myers," Josh Harris and David Blitzer said in a statement. "His experience as an architect of championship teams will complement our existing leadership structure, while also allowing HBSE to maximize opportunities across our portfolio. We're excited to have Bob continue his storied career here at HBSE."

Myers will work with the "goal of maximizing opportunities and bolstering processes" across the company, whose portfolio of teams includes the NBA's Philadelphia 76ers, the NHL's New Jersey Devils, NASCAR team Joe Gibbs Racing and Crystal Palace of the Premier League.

Posters here hate on him and ask what he did well when all he did was be the POBO of a dynasty. Go ahead and give all the credit to Jerry West and all the blame for the picks you don't like to Bob.

[Twinkie defense]

except blowing those two high lottery picks.

[Twinkie defense]

I guess he is a nice guy, good at managing star players. But the Warriors cupboard was empty since the Curry, Klay, Draymond picks, the Iggy signing and the Monta for Bogut trade (edit: and KD, which was all Logo) - and how much credit can Bob Myers take for those? On the other hand MDJ has had crap picks and he's still been able to add good players - Jimmy Butler, Podz, Buddy Hield, Quinten Post, TJD. Richard looks like a keeper.

MDJ has been excellent at finding under-valued players who fit the Warriors scheme. While Myers is known for swinging for the fences and striking out on players with top-tier athletic skills but who don't know how to play basketball.

Would Jerry West have signed off on drafting James Wiseman? I don't think so.

MDJ also handled the Kuminga situation vey well - retaining value while not panicking and overpaying and getting into another Jordan Poole situation.

If MDJ had been the Warriors GM for some of those years when Bob Myers was GM I think the Warriors would be in a better position today.

[Upperclass]

Myers was a better GM. He made solid trades and solid end of the roster signings but was AWFUL at drafting for some reason and didnt recognize it or refused to bring in better scouts to help.

Dunleavy seems average at drafting (going for safe picks only), but hasnt been able to put together a JK trade, traded FOR Hield and signed him to a bad deal.. FOR Shroeder.. and traded Poole for CP3 (he had to be moved.. but that wasnt the right move for Poole).. also didnt trade an expiring CP3.

He's either a really bad GM, or the Lacob fam has alot of input into current moves.

[Twinkie defense]

traded FOR Hield and signed him to a bad deal.

Ok obviously I disagree with pretty much everything you posted there... but $9.4 mil average salary is a BAD deal for Buddy Hield?!?!

Bob deserves some flack for his drafting, but that Dlo and subsequent wiggins trade which also netted us an unprotected #7 from minny is still paying dividends today. I gotta give him credit where its due..it was just time for a new direction and mdj has done well.

I am sorry but these are such clueless takes...He drafted podz who was bpa at #19 and who is now a starter. Was able to make the jimmy trade and re sign him because pooles contract was no longer on the books. Took a flyer on schroder but that was a low risk move and only because melton who mdj signed was injured and he was used in the jimmy trade... Buddy won us a big game 7 in the playoffs and is a solid 3rd string sg. Post and richard were solid picks in the 2nd. Signed horford and melton to bargain contracts..signed moody to a bargain contract. All of these were great moves.

You probably should be giving Towns credit for that, DLO was a very close friend of his and he was pushing for Minnesota to acquire him, Towns had that much power with Glen Taylor (the owner) in Minnesota which is one of the reasons Butler forced himself out of there.
