Comparing MPJ to kuminga is just foolery
MPJ is a top 5 shooter in the league , great off the ball , was the 3rd option a chip team , and HAS ACTUALLY proven to be a 25ppg scorer when given the opportunity. All boxes that JK hasn’t and likely will never check . L take lol.
Mediocre team!!
The Kerr and green disease continues.
Butler, porter Jr and green lineup not good enough.
We need to make the trade! Who cares about the 1st round draft picks. Kuminga, Buddy, Moody are all 1sr rounders. We need to maximize Curry's time…top 5 player of all timeand we care about the damn picks?!? Porter Jr let's go! We need more consistent shooting.
Charlie will never question the rotations and Steve kerr …. 4 years going strong with the same BS after 2022 ….😑😑 This roster is also the reflection of how Kerr sees the game and its not winning basketball 😑
can we trade Steve kerr by trade deadline 2😂😂 jk
My God we could have had Jalen Johnson? I guarantee he would not be the same player
These two are clueless. JK isn't the problem, it's Kerr! Jaylen Johnson would be in the same position as Moody and JK if the Warriors took him. Atlanta is doing what the Warriors should have done, Get rid of the vets to let the young guys play. Now they have a future, and the Warriors don't at all.
u dont go all in on mid porter jr. lazy take.
Bro honestly if I’m in my 30s and I’m watching losing basketball year in and year out and jumping on YouTube and making crybaby videos over and over for years I think that says more about the host of this show then anything else. These guys come in here and spend godly amounts of time complaining and gathering other complainers in the comments, this show Is pathetic and a huge waste of time. Steve Kerr will never take advice from either of these losers, life is a precious gift, if you are reading this comment go do something meaningful with yourself and get away from listening to old losers like this please.
Fire Kerr asap, it probably would not be worse that it is right now.
Trey Murphy never played winning basketball. Mpj has…
Stephs too old to get a team rebuilt around him at this point lol lets be serious
Kuminga would be a more valuable asset if he played… but he doesn’t so why would any team offer much of anything for him… We shot ourselves in the foot for not getting Monk on the offseason…
Wings! wings! Wings! We need a bunch of tall, athletic, young guards just like Kuminga who warms the bench under Kerr as coach.
This Warriors team is not hungry, lacks killer instinct and simply is not a contender! I am so tired of this team frustrating me and under achieving! They let Luke Kennard beat them tonight! Steve Kerr watches opposing players destroy his team and just sits back and does nothing about it! He is the worst in game adjustment making coach in NBA history! He hopes that Steph Curry will go off and save him! I think that some of the Warriors young players are actually looking forward to being traded and getting away from Steve Kerr and this confused and delusional organization!
When you start talking rosters, remember Kerr benched Tatum 😂
Going over schedule..remaining. 41–41. Focus is the top of the Summer draft. Joel Embid quranteed chip if healthy.
Trade away Kerr
The should investigate kerr
I don't think Kerr can do the job. He finally started playing Santos but then he barely gives any mins to Post, zero mins for TJD, and brings Buddy back in the rotation who doesn't know ANY of the plays or what to do on defense. They need an athletic wing? They have one sitting on the bench: Kuminga. Yea, he's not solid in decision making like Butler and they were hoping he'd be better by now, but it seems like they didnt develop him with his strengths in mind. The 4 guard lineups stopped for a few games, but Kerr still plays the 3 guard lineups and it doesn't work. You ever notice how every team has its best 3 point shooting night EVER everytime time they play the warriors? The guards are too small to contest the shots and draymond and Jimmy playing down low are getting driven into the ground by bigger more athletic players, and they're too tired to run guys off the 3 pt line and recover. Post, Santos, and TJD can do that though, but Kerr doesn't give them very many mins in the game. I wish he would resolve his lineups around his bigs and then let Jimmy and kuminga play the 2 and 3 spots all game. Oh well, im sure they'll make some big trade hoping it will fix everything like MPJ, but Kerr will probably play him at PF and screen it up.
No picks for Porter. And imagine Okongu instead of Wiseman
Gsw have guys that can play center but they keep saying we need more help but they don’t talk about how Kerr playing 4 guard putting draymond at center I mean this guys not making any sense I mean the guy with the glasses want to say who is the real problem but the skinny dude not letting him
If they do nothing you complain….if they do something you complain….cmon be serious
The common theme whether warriors win or loose is, why is Kerr compromising the team to cater to podz?
Podz + buddy on court together = instant loss (worst back court in the nba) don't be fooled by the effort every single team shoots over podz and buddy like they never existed
Podz + gp2 = instant down 7-10 points.
So the real question is why does Kerr play 2-3 guards ALWAYS to cater to podz?
This team gets better by subtraction whether it's trades or injuries. Eye test dont lie, stats don't lie.
Dunleavy gota take away the toys, it's obvious that the addict can't help himself reverting.
吉巴交易巴換來更好適配柯瑞定能奪冠😂🎉
Comparing Alexander to moody lol
Sooo alexander wasn’t “messed with” his first 5-6 years but moody was please
Moody stinks
Podz and Moody can't create their own shot if their lives depended on it.
Combined 1-7 FG, 5 points, 2 reb in 33 combined minutes…but hey, they fit what Steve wants to do….right?
It’s only 72 hrs until MPJ arrives… hopefully
Dear lord compared jk to porter jr of course Porter Junior would close games. The guy can score we need guys that can score. Games aren’t gonna be that close. We have him on our team.
Kolsky is worked up this episode. But I think you’re over valuing defense. Unless it’s point of attack demon which just not available, offense in today nba is the way to go. Lauri I think is slightly better than mpj but I would rather have mpj. For what the warriors do, he would fit better. I just think the value of playing years with a superstar player, being able to fulfill a role well, and honestly would complete that us nicely. We are no longer a small team. He’s over 40% for career if I’m not mistaken he will have the green light.
Steve Kerr needs to be investigated for intentionally throwing games with his obvious piss poor coaching and line-ups. It's either he has dementia or he is involved in a gambling syndicate and wrecking the Warriors. #firestevekerr
Nothing will get better until you address 3 issues:
1. Draymond being old, small, slow, unathletic, center, and a primary ball-handler
2. Kerr's rotations and hatred towards true bigs and scorers
3. Dunleavy not making enough moves, or making bad moves
Every trade scenario will result in a player out of position for Kerr, with Draymond at Center. Dunleavy is asleep in the front office, so any draft picks will be wasted, and we'll have this same circus of WTF are we doing. It starts will Kerr, Dunleavy, and Draymond being the washed anchor of a fallen dynasty.
JK has routinely out played Jalen Johnson whenever they have played head-to-head. JK is stronger and more athletic, and often JK has flashed the height of his skills against Jalen’s “defense”. The missed draft pick was Trey Murphy. So similar to Moody, but older and more ready to contribute than Moody. I get the fascination with Moody’s potential, but the team needed a ready-to-contribute player.
Dubs aint gonna get anything better than Porter. Is he the most perfect player ever created? No, can he help them alot? probably. 2026 first, who cares. 2028 first, top 10 protected? yeah, not a ton of risk on that. If ur talkin like 29-21 unprotected, maybe u got a point but they need something & not many options right now. Pull the trigger on this nonsense & make these games somewhat enjoyable to watch
Steve Kerr will never develop a star player; the current stars are already getting old, it's time to fire Steve Kerr.
Kerr likes Green, Moody, Podziemski, and Payton, and none of them have any talent right now.
We should be very grateful and happy to have Jimmy Butler on our team. We have been truly blessed and fortunate to be warriors fans. It has been a great time. As a basketball and warrior fan I feel a huge level of gratitude
Just imagine if the FO drafted Trey Murphy and Jalen Johnson instead of drafting JK and Moody in the 2021 class…Steve, STOP the non sense SMALL lineup !!
