    Warriors can pound sand. They are dead to me.

    the Warriors can't win road games, but they lead the NBA in controversial media leaks.

    He's going to report everything is fine and then the target date will slip. Then he'll come back at some point and get hurt after a few quarters.

    That's the story of his career, and the Warriors expecting anything else at this point would make them dumber than the Blazers for signing him in the first place (although, in retrospect, getting picks for him is better than nothing and I'm not sure a serviceable big guy instead of Payton would have made a huge impact this year, as I'd hoped it would when we signed Payton).

    I still wouldn't be shocked if GSW go all the way. Their core just knows how to win, and Kerr is remarkable.

    Why do I get the feeling the NBA has been reviewing this and Golden St wanted to try and make it go away on their terms before a ruling could come down showing that they were out of pocket.

    But what about all the people on here who slammed the Blazers organization and training staff?

    Fuckers. The Blazers did nothing wrong. The NBA didn't find shit. The Warriors just want it to go away so they can suddenly play Payton. Fuck them and the rest of the NBA who slandered the Blazers. There should be apologies all around from all the asshole analysts who spoke before they knew the facts.
