This team is better if Klay plays zero games for the rest of the season.

Literally don’t even need anything back. Just let him walk.

Pacers won 5 of their last 8 and then we beat them by 20 at home and we are on a back to back?
Warriors are playing well.

Wonder what will happen when Klay and CP3 get back. Clearly the Dubs play better without Klay, and CP3 will slow down the young guys. Will Kerr do the right thing and make adjustments?

Even if MDJ wanted to trade them, apparently there wasn’t a market.

He is starting to realize his potential from the draft. Right after they got him for a bargain contract

Moses should be taking notes.

This is the Dubs plan for Moses. They want him on the Looney contract track. That leaves extra money for Klay.

These no-Klay games are so refreshing.

The presumption is that it's true. I don't believe for a second that a high salary expiring + picks is something that half the league wouldn't be going for.

Oh stop it. Warriors are not better without Klay. Klay will adjust and stop chucking when he is not hot.Klay has a pattern of getting better let in the season.

We are very unlikely to win the chapionship but our tiny chance we have to win the championship requires Klay to be as good as he was in 2022 playoffs and also requires Looney and Wiggins to also be playing at their 2022 playoff levels.

Has literally never happened in his career. Was he better late in last season when vs the Lakers? That amazing 3/19 performance as he was trying to bring the ghost of game 6 Klay back? :lol:

The team is much better when he doesn't play because they're not coddling his fragile little ego, starting from the coach.

extra money for what? are they running a charity now? he's a MLE player at best now. and it's getting evident how the team performs better when his minutes are down or he just sit out.

Crazy-Canuck · Post #154 » by **Crazy-Canuck** » Fri Feb 9, 2024 4:39 am

Our starters had a drtg of 71 vs one of the best offenses in the league. Not bad.

Dump wiggs in offseason.
Guarantee loon for 3M
Moody hits free agency.

Use the savings to give a klay 3/100 extension.

We all know this option is a possibility.

What a game! Unbelievable how we look surrounding Steph/Dray with athletic tryhards.

- Gui Santos, not only the hustle but his jumper form actually looks good.
- Wiggins/Green combo looked great on defense.
- Super Podz defending Turner and other larger players
- JK continues to solidify that he has taken a big jump, and that he clearly plays well with Wiggins
- Steph had the energy, space, and team focus to really get going tonight. Loved the lineup! Seeing him on fire like that is the greatest Warrior joy.

So happy about this one, hopefully we can go on a run.

Klay sucked vs the Lakers. I think last year and most years Klay played better in March than in December.

Klay has the 3rd worst plus minus on the team after Wiggins and Looney but Klay has been playing better than he played in December. Vs the 76ers last night Klay led the team in plus minus.

He led the team vs an injury riddled team and was pouty/whiny/childish throughout the entire process during the game. Was also the only minus player vs the nets in the starting 5 (and 1/2 players with a negative +/-). I would loathe working with someone at my job that is as whiny and sulky as Klay is whenever he's not hot in a game. It brings the entire attitude down.

He and Wiggins are playing better than earlier, sure. The issue is Wiggins can play elite level defense and Klay is a pylon defensively. It looks much worse when you have lineups where he's with Steph and CP3 who will be coming back.
