It&#8217;s a waste of time, it&#8217;s a waste of energy. It&#8217;s not my job to do that. [Warriors general manager] Mike [Dunleavy] and the entire front office is, I&#8217;m sure, making calls, taking looks, seeing what&#8217;s going on, and then if there&#8217;s something material, something real, we have conversations about it and decisions are made.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So that&#8217;s our process. It&#8217;s always been that way. I&#8217;m assuming it&#8217;s going to be that same way over the next week and a half, but when stuff happens, you&#8217;ll know.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Curry still is playing like he&#8217;s in his prime at age 37, and with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcsportsbayarea.com\/nba\/golden-state-warriors\/jimmy-butler-torn-acl-heat\/1908950\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Jimmy Butler lost for the season<\/a> to a torn ACL, the Warriors must make a move at the deadline if they want to help their franchise star and the team at large win another NBA championship.<\/p>\n<p>This isn&#8217;t the first season Antetokounmpo-to-Golden State trade rumors have surfaced, of course, but now that there appears to be a real chance Giannis will be on the move, plenty expect the Warriors to give it their best shot. <\/p>\n<p>Curry and Antetokounmpo have expressed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcsportsbayarea.com\/nba\/golden-state-warriors\/giannis-antetokounmpo-steph-curry-praise\/1850928\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">a shared admiration over the years<\/a>, but could they be Warriors teammates soon?
