Smart words from Curry.

Our window to do anything impactful shut last summer.

Our ONLY hopes of anything meaningful at this point are to stealth tank or blow it up.

Unfortunately we are going to do nothing, be mid for 3 years until Steph retires, and then be mid for another 5+.

Also I don't know why everyone is acting like Steph is just on his way out the door as soon as this contract ends. He's still playing at an MVP level. He also has a game that will age incredibly gracefully. I wouldn't be surprised if he's still in the league 5 years from now.

I say get that 60M Steph 4th year extension done. When is he eligible again?

We need to tie him up NOW before he just walks on us. Obviously Steve will also need to be extended early (on league leading money) because he and Steph are tied at the hip.

I wouldn't be surprised.

Let's not forget Draymond who's due a retirement bonus extension

I guess Steph got the memo that he's been sounding defeated so he needed to boost the morale a bit.

Make a trade already Warriors!

[Anderson Hunt]

He’s basically saying Vucevic is trash and Butler is a diva, we shouldn’t trade for them. Smart man.

Vucevic is exactly what this team needs.

He rebounds at high clip.
He's instantly a 20-point per game 2nd option.
He's a big body.
He can shoot from deep.
He can score in the paint.

Karl Anthony Towns would've been an even better fit, but that ship has sailed.

As it stands, Vucevic is the next best thing and will make this team much, much better.

I'm not sure I fully get the criticism of Vucevic I see from others either. The critics do have a point that Vucevic is big and slow and that in a fast paced system that may be a significant hindrance but I imagine he'd be played tactically in particular matchups so I'm leaning into being favorable to his acquisition. But his effectiveness may be largely determined by how Kerr uses him and I don't have that much confidence in Kerr.

Regarding Curry's words: I'm unconvinced the idea being imparted by them is that smart but the words are smart even if only because he isn't throwing his teammates under the bus.
