Good lord

Do the players know something about Klay that we don't?


Maybe Klay has been looking great or he knows Iggy is signing.

I've lost all hope today but maybe you're right

A 2nd year and Bazemore didn't take it? TBF, I wouldn't have been too happy about it.

Baze clearly thinks he deserves more minutes, which he will get with the Lakers

has Danny Green signed anyways yet? hes probably cooked but worth a tire kick.

We have 10 players somewhat deserving of minutes that are either high draft picks and/or familiar with our system:

Curry
Klay
Wiggins
Dray
Looney
Poole
Moody
Kuminga
JTA
Wiseman

And we also have Nico and Lee.. meaning there’s no clear job for anyone, so even ring chasing vets aren’t super inclined to be chased by a rookie/soph, effectively able to lose their job with no fault on their part

We’re not getting ring chasers because we aren’t built for that. We need a big and the rest can be filled with minimum players. No coronary situations necessary

He watched a Moses Moody draft profile and knew he wasnt getting any minutes here. Its a good signing for him. Doubt anyone gives him big money next year even with a good year, but opportunity to get significant minutes on a title contender is not something to sneeze at.

Still holding out for OPJ/Gay, but increasingly thinking the best play for the TPMLE is Robin Lopez.

And unlike with OPJ/Gay, they can sell Lopez on a starting gig.

Even a big coming will know that they have a chance to start, but they probably won't finish games.

Still got "names" out there in DeRozan (likely S&T to Miami?), Gay, Danny Green, OPJ, James Ennis, Andre, James Johnson, Reddick, Winslow, Mills, Milsap, Bradley, Wes Mathews, Melo, One Morris bro, Josh Hart, ???

Ignoring the centers on purpose bc who cares and not saying I want all these guys. Just listing.

The best play for the TPMLE is Lopez even with those 2 on the board, but neither is coming. OPJ is not going to like being barely in front of Moody/Kuminga, who the Warriors have significant investments in, and Gay catches a piece of that (Kuminga) but also really is only a PF these days, so his value to us is lesser.

RoLo's the best target available, if he wants the TPMLE. I think he can do better based on the market

At least the fans are happy about that tank topic. Hope all the people getting a hardon in that topic aren't too confused now that most top end FA don't want to join the team.

Our whole draft process was linked to Bouknight, Moody, Mitchell, and other guards/wings.. pretty sure Bazemore saw the writing on the wall there. We were looking to upgrade from him and we have, and like the OPJ thing, he's not gonna enjoy looking over his shoulder at the big investment the W's just made.

Get a C and Iguodala, if you can do both, and that's a success. Finding a small guard is what the GLeague is basically for

I agree. But I'd be fine with Chriss as the big.

The scary FA signings are the 25 year olds who haven't lived up to their potential and the 37 year olds who will get hurt reaching for the remote control.

How were the Warriors going to PAY these "top end FA"?

Most top end talent wants to get paid.

I'm talking about the top budget ones. That's why it would have been great to make the playoffs and see where it takes the team.

Noone wants to join losers.

BTW the safest bet in the world right now: Take the over on the Pelicans game. Every game of theirs should be 220 or higher..

Sato / Graham / Ingram / Zion / Jonas
Lewis / NAW / Tre / JJ / Hayes

Tre Murphy is probably their best defender already, and Jaxson Hayes may be in deep **** right now.. gonna be a fun team to watch but Pels fans gonna be frustrated as hell
