Warriors exploring S&T for Kuminga

[wco81]

He wants to get paid before he gets injured.

These have been the type workouts he has posted for the last few years.

Much of his career has been driven by getting paid like Kobe.

Kobe?

Kobe played a long time ago, or his peak was a long time ago.

Game has changed a lot since Kobe's peak, because of one of Kumminga's teammates and his coach

[CS707]

Im sure I can scrounge up an old clip of me dunking on my little brother in the basement on a nerf hoop set.

Turner going to get me paid.

I just can't see how Kuminga has been on this team with hall of famers and seems to have learned nothing. How is he still practicing by himself?

I just think he has had bad basketball advisors.

Every off season he ignores what the team wants and continues to do his kobe work out. Every off season. And every season, his weaknesses are still his weaknesses.

At this point I assume he's just surrounding himself with people that will tell him what he wants to hear. I'm fascinated with where it ends up a couple of years down the road. If nothing, you have to admire the stubbornness of it all.

We'll, his cousin was also a high draft pick #7) extremely athletic, yet did not make any adjustments with his game. Couldn't shoot. Couldn't defend. Couldn't play in a team concept. Sound familiar? Hopefully it doesn't end the same way for all our sakes

I remember joking when there were only two months left.

26 pages to go. Keep up the good work!

I can't believe they're going to let this run out the clock on Monday, which is Media Day for the Warriors, what a mess that's going to be. Good luck getting reporters to ask questions that aren't about Kuminga (or by extension if they don't get signed first, Melton, Seth, GP2, and Horford). "Steve, why do you only have 9 rostered players when October and training camp starts this week and preseason games next week?"

And people wonder why people don't move when JK has the ball.

Now I hope JK is a lifetime Warrior and he just ices out Curry so I can read people bitching about him into eternity!

There's no real game until October 21 (national game!) so I don't think there is any real urgency to wrap things up before Wednesday. Media Day is not important. Horford, Melton, Payton, and Seth Curry are all but signed on the dotted lines. And Warriors will have a load of training camp invite players ready to go. Fans like to get anxious but the timing has zero effect on the Warriors success this season.

He probably will be, but the people bitching will be the ones complaining why JK is on the bench.

I noticed this too but didn't think too much of it (didn't go back to watch in slow-mo). There seems to be 1-2 frames missing from him having the ball at head level to near the end of him shooting. I don't think it was purposely altered but I do think it's odd to put out a clip that has a issue with it. Playing it back at .25 speed lets you see the missing frame or 2 better. This whole situation with Kuminga is just so weird and something I don't remember happening before.

He doesn't even need a quicker release. Most teams just back off him and let him gather and line up the shot.

If he wanted to impress, show him hitting like 25 or 50 in a row from beyond the arc.

Don't think my heart will survive.

Just want JK to sign the QO to beotch about how stupid he and his agent are when management had all the control. And be done with afterwards... I hope.

Nick does a good job here (that first sequence is exactly what I think of when I think how JK just doesn't get it):

This is hilarious. I don't think Aaron turner has done a single thing this summer to make JK look good to the fans and yet he keeps making everything public.

I mean nobody is offering him close to an average of $25M lol. that's just a bad faith argument.

I didn’t get to finish the video but Im wondering if it addresses the fact that Kuminga’s plus minus with Steph is actually pretty good.

If you go to basketball-reference's 2 man lineups for GS...
https://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/GSW/2025/lineups/
players making appearances in the top 20 2 man lineups for GS(lowest min was 545 which was Curry and Kuminga but a +7.6)...

Curry 8
Green 6
Podz 5
Hield 5
Moody 4
Butler 3 - Kinda surprised he qualified for more then 2 for GS.
Kuminga 2

Kuminga was positive with 6 of his top 10 2 man combos from last year,
Green 10
Curry 9
Butler 9
Podz 9

Kuminga 6
Moody 6
