I understand it because Siakam isn’t a good fit with them but I hope they do realize that once Curry is gone, there is no more Warriors. They will cease to be relevant for a very long time.


If only they drafted Ball instead of Wiseman

Franz over Kuminga too. Plus Moody over Sengun. Imagine they had Ball, Franz and Sengun. That 2nd timeline would have been pretty bright.

I forgot Moody was drafted before Sengun, damn that's rough (granted hindsight is 20/20).

I'm higher on Kuminga than most, but pretty ridiculous that Warriors won't trade Kuminga for Pascal. I can understand more if Kuminga was a rookie or in his second year, but he's in his third year and he will be due for an extension soon.

Now if that means Warriors are more willing to give up on Moody + Podz, that would be good too, but they may be even higher on Podz.

Masai is working and I love it. Taking his show on the road and seeing who the highest bidder is

It is pretty funny Masai out on the road peddling his wares at every rest stop.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

Kuminga is still basically the same player from a year ago. Got worse shooting the 3, sub 70% from FT line as well...they think they got a star in the making?

Just wait until the raptors get him. Everyone will be calling for the second coming of Jimmy Butler.

kuminga has all the space in the world to operate, put him in a situation where he's not allowed to have a red carpet to the basket and forced to make quick decision's and he struggles. He has potential but he could easily be a guy who caps at a decent rotation guy depending on how well he shoots the 3. If he doesn't shoot the 3 well he could be a negative overall player.

If possible give me walker all day.

The talk around Kuminga lately just shows how athleticism is overrated in NBA today. Give me a guy with skills and BBIQ.

Murray, Walker, Mathurin, Kuminga...that is the order of preference for me.

sac might become desperate because this could be the only chance they have to upgrade their core really, murray caps out as a high level role player (og level). So they ain't gonna win a championship but I don't think they'll give up keegan.

Indy won't give up mathurin

it all comes down to walker + a bad first, vs kuminga + moody & (maaaaybe a bad first)
