Im leaning towards a D or F! The guy is the same as anthony davis. Always hurt! Waste of trade
F
With all positivity, I think the team now can win it all!!! You are not very positive
But will look off Steph as well?
i want absolutely nothing to do with lonzo ball! dude is HOT GARBAGE!
A
Insane that they have only 2 available forwards on the active roster right now. Should have traded Moody and Podz at the deadline.
D
F
Tingus pingussssssssss 😂
They should get Cam Thomas he got waived
You think those clowns are doing anything
Bro keep that same energy wen porzingis starts ballin n helping the team…come on getting Gianni’s is unrealistic yall praying for too much smh
Cam Thomas. Just in case Steph Curry gets sidelined again. Pat Spencer can't play anymore this season as he is a 2 way player.
CAM THOMAS
Matisse Thybulle, anyone? He’s supposed to be finalizing a buyout with Portland.
Since porzingis only played 17 games, then to hit his avg he'll play through the rest of the season through to the finals!
Don’t worry, Steve and Curry make more money in China then the warriors
I always wanted Lonzo Ball because of his defense, high IQ, and passing ability. If healthy he should be the obvious choice. Of course every player traded or bought isn't 100% now. Just trading expensive cripples now!
Bro you don’t know 💩 about basketball!
Malik Williams and Isaac Jones please talk about these two players for the gsw
Cam
None of this really matters. Lmao free agents are not the answer! See ya next season. Peace!!!
Waive Podz then get Cam Thomas and maybe 6'11 Duop Reath. Need another C/PF.
Then sign Pat Spencer or get someone else too.
Lacob has failed miserably. Dumpleaver is just a yes man. We are headed right back to the old Warriors. Strap in folks it's gunna be a lame ride!
To everyone freaking out friendly reminder we have a winning record against the suns, the lakers, and the Spurs. The dubs right now as constructed are better than all of those teams without Jimmy. The record is making everyone feel worse than they should. Steph is playing great, melt has been great, Al has been great, Moses has been better, pat spencer has had flashes, will Richard has been great. If kp can be healthy which is a big if this team absolutely can win a playoff series against the lakers or suns and I don't hate their chances against the rockets or Spurs either. The only teams we should really worry about is Denver and OKC. It's not the end of the world.
d
The front Office is horrible and need to fired, along with kerr
Georges Niang is a nice player. Hes about 6'8" and can shoot it & is used to winning cultures. I like Lonzo "if you didn't need him to score" because he sees the floor extremely well and has size about 6'7". Cam is a scorer, but if hes gonna put up bad shots & shoot poor percentages, whats the point?
Let’s be real here, they’re going to sign someone from the g league 😤
Chris Boucher should be the obvious target
Cam Thomas is waived by team so warriors should get him before other teams 💀 he will be big help
Easy, someone who looks just like Podz, but taller, better, and breaks into Kerr's brain before he yells, "Podz my golden step-son, go forth and be like I was when I used to play" a baby unicorn
C-
F
D GRADE. We traded 3 players who dont play for 1 player that doesnt play and a draft pick we they wont develop
All terrible
We dont want them! Theres reason thejr being bought out!
Let's just sign every player who is injured and/or prone to injury 💪
It's over for the Dubs, let's all go support the Celtics with Smitty, Vuci man is the 'young' version of Horford and The Big dingus that Dublevy was supposed to get.
Lonzo Ball
i remember george niang lit us up for like 30 last year lmao
