How good would this Warriors father son team be. 

Post#1 » by SinceGatlingWasARookie » Tue Dec 19, 2023 6:36 pm

Trayce Jackson Davis blocks shots better than his dad did and seems more athletic than his dad and Klay’s dad.

Everybody at their peaks except Trayce as he is as a rookie without a hypothetical future peak.

Center forwards.
Mychal Thompson
Dale Davis
Trayce Jackson Davis.

Small forward / undersized quick power forward
Andrew Wiggins

Guard Small forward
Klay Thompson

Off guard
Dell Curry
Mitchel Wiggins (he could shoot)

Point guard
Steph Curry
Gary Payton Sr the glove.
Offense defense

Whatever Gary Payton jr is.
He does good things especially on defense.
Can hit corner 3s.
Leader, disrupter
Point guard style body who regularly blocks shots and takes rebounds from big men. Doesn’t really have a position. Not a point guard on offense.

The centers are not that tall.

Mitchel Wiggins was the worst of these players.
He was very good shoot deep 2s but did not really have 3 point range. His defense was mediocre.

Dell Curry was a good 3 point shooter with mediocre defense.

Gary Payto sr and Steph Curry were too good to not put them on the floor together. Put Curry on the weaker offensive guard. Give Payton Draymond’s job of handling the ball so that Curry can play off the ball.

Klay can be starting off guard and also take all the back up small forward minutes.

Not many minutes for Dell, Mitchel Wiggins or Gary Payton jr but they all are decent players.

The team is good, with especially good guard depth. They are lacking wings.

Luckily, Giannis and Luka Doncic have both become Chris Paul's daddy during the 21/22 playoff runs.

They will slot in nicely.

It is only 5 fathers from 1980s and 1990s and 5 sons currently Playing for Golden State.

Klay can play small forward so I think they are OK at small forward depth.

Give them 5 g-leaguers and I think they have no wholes. Make on of the g-leaguers a jumbo sized center who trips over his own feet.

I feel like giving them Draymond because I can’t separate Draymond from Steph and Klay.

Then I want to give them Juan Toscano Anderson for small forward depth.

Then I want to give them Ostertag to battle with Shaq.

Payton/Payton
Curry/Curry
Thompson/Wiggins (either can start depending on matchup)
Davis/Davis
Mychal

A crunchtime lineup of Payton/Curry/Thompson/Wiggins/Mychal is a pretty darn good lineup.

I'd rather sign Bronny James.
