With what Thompson may have been missing tonight with his offense, at least he made up for it with his "defensive effort."

Barnes will forever be an enemy for me. I will never forgive him.

Take Draymond out before he does something that gets him suspended for next season lol.

Barnes is pretty limited but seems happy to target Klay.

Is it possible to put out a worse rebounding group? Embarrassing.

Hopefully a send-off for 2-3 players on the court

I mean it took 10 years to get his revenge in a play-in game on a team that's likely not going deep into the playoffs, where he was largely invisible

I guess he's gotta take the wins he's offered

Klay taken out. O points, no one could have imagined this.

That aged well. We didn’t make it difficult for him to get going though.

This always happens to great teams. We had no chance to keep this going. I like all 4 young guys and we should focus on getting back in it in the post Curry era. I'm willing to let him go elsewhere if he wants to or just do whatever if he wants to stay. It's impossible to build a contender around him with the pieces we have his remaining years.

Maybe, but we also have no idea what our "peak" looks like with this team because of Kerr. So while not being a contender isnt on Kerr, the fact that the team has no real identity and will play vets through their coldest streaks while benching quality youth means we're in a lot worse position going forward than we should be

Maybe. But I can understand how working with people you've worked with for a decade is. The thing is that we basically have nothing of huge value at this point. Kuminga, Moody, Podz and Trayce are all fine young dudes and Kuminga has a little bit of star potential. Curry could maybe fetch a little bit in the right scenario but who's to say he'd be excited about making a run elsewhere? He has nothing to prove. We own no one else's picks. We basically need to tank but I don't think it would have been fair to the fanbase, the players, the league or anyone else to have done that this year even though it was equally true at the start of this season.
Letting the young guys play more might have won us a few more or a few less games or just the same. Either way I don't think that would matter that much. We can't reasonably be expected to make this core even a team that you'd expect to have home court in the first round without some major free agent signing and I imagine that would require us to have Curry off the books first. Sometimes you just have to let certain events play out even if they're not exactly optimal from a future perspective sense. I don't expect any of these players to be on the team the next time the Warriors make the conference finals.

Sign and trade KLay, along with Draymond to the Clippers for Paul George and one of there big's. The dubs need size.

This will all be worth it as long as he’s not on the team next year.

Been a heck of a run fellas. Had our cameo last season, after 4 chips in a decade.

Dubs spent most of the season looking like they weren’t a playoff team. Tonight they proved it. What a bummer. That said, hopefully they can make some smart moves over the summer and come back better.

If we're gonna lose, I'd rather have Dray on the team as a veteran who's not going to take shots from young players and as someone who's going to teach them defensive positioning
