    100% agree here. Knox will not get another NBA contract.

    If that's true, that can't be allowed. Golden State needs to be punished and the fucking NBA needs to say something. If it's true.

    Is it really surprising to people that the Warriors are cock bags?

    Like people's livelihoods are at stake (outside of the obvious hit to our future FA dealings and trades).

    Wish we had some leadership with a backbone. There hasn't been comment outside of the initial statement from Joe.

    Sounds more like Woj is trying to save face.

    Seriously though, scar tissue from a previous injury when he played for the Warriors? WTF?

    Not Woj, Wos. Different guy. If it WAS Woj, it would be big news.

    Yes. Woj has more reach but Wos (Wosny Lambre) is fairly well connected

    I don't want the spotify app on my computer so I 'can't' listen to the clip. Did it sound like the GM was trying to fade the heat on himself from the owner by blaming Portland

    and what scar tissue I'd wonder? Did the Warriors not report a previous injury to Payton? Was the scar tissue in the area of his core surgery or elsewhere?

    That was my takeaway. Owner got hot about failed physical because he was sold on a win-now piece in return for Wiseman. GM trying to deflect blame as a result.

    I think the scar tissue reference was in regards to his most recent surgery, more as an indication of no new injury or findings. Just remnants from his previous one.

    It does sound like the surgery didn't go very well for GP2 though. Probably some truth in that.

    Ya the premise here being GS' threshold to pass physicals seems far more stringent than ours. How indicative that is to the competence or our staff... I dunno

    I for one am always interested in what you have to say. If you don't feel like sparring though, I get that.

    This sounded like a LOT of speculation/tin foil type stuff to me.
