Draymond tried his best to make it look like it could be an accident. Haven't you ever swung around quickly and hit someone in the head with a semi-limp arm? It happens.
I wonder what this means? Are they giving him stipulations? Go to anger management class yadda yadda. I was honestly wondering if they'd just suspend him for the rest of the season. I think he deserves it. He's done this way too many times. Stepping on Sabonis was very dangerous. Anyway it's about time they dealt with that douche.
Barkley had a great point that the Warriors should come out and give Dray 10 games or something instead of the league, his employer has to let him know that he’s embarrassing them and see how he reacts. If he reacts poorly to that, it’s time to move on from him.
Poor Draymond. He just needs time "to deal with challenges he’s facing." Dray is the real victim here.
GS current records vs other WC teams, for tie breakers: PHX (0-3, last game 2/10) LAL (0-0, the first of four games isn’t until 1/27) SAC (2-1, last game 1/25) HOU (2-0, last game 4/4) NO (1-0, two games 1/10, 4/12) LAC (1-1, two games 12/14, 2/14)
GS next 10 games: - 7 playoff teams (LAC, BRK, BOS, DEN, MIA, DAL, ORL - us twice - 1 cardio night (WAS)
Close but wrong, if it's top4 in 2024 it will be top1 protected in 2025. If top1 that year unprotected in 2026.
Would be great if we can get one and split them. They might lose 6 of those other 7 against playoff teams. That would put them 7 games under .500 for the season. At that point it might be more likely they finish in the lottery than the playin. Even if they move up to the playin good chance they lose there and we still get a lottery pick from them. Just goes to show you should never write off a pick as being for certain at the end of the first round. It's so valuable to get picks with little lottery protections.
Number of Warriors fans posting about how they are so sick of this group and just want to get on with a rebuild. This Golden State team starts to go off the rails the next month they might seriously consider making some big changes. Starting to look like theres no way for this core to contend even if Draymond gets his act together. This team nearly lost last year by a young Sacramento group in their first playoffs, they got manhandled and ran off the floor by the Lakers, and now they look worse with Steph being the only legit scoring option. We own their pick - we could probably flip that into multiple 1st. Here's pieces of a trade idea..... yeah NY needs to give GS something else too so this idea isn't finished (please feel free to complete) Draymond/Wiggins/Looney could get assets in trades from other teams as well to rebuild. Fun to think we either get their pick this year which is looking better and better - or we can really hold out for a massive trade return to give it back to them.
I think part of this trade got cut off? You want to what is probably a lotto pick for 3 probably not lotto pics?
Dude that’s a terrible trade for Curry. They could get a lot more than that. Would you have taken that for Dame?
Looking for another loss by the Dubs tonight. In their last game, the Clips blew out the Kings. Kings lost control after the first quarter. Sacramento started the 2nd quarter down by 6, and ended the first half down by 22.
Trade idea is incomplete as noted in post I said NY needs to give GS something else. More showing Portland side.
I pitched the idea of sending Grant to the Warriors and in return we get them to unprotect their ‘24 1st, send us a top 6 protected ‘26 1st, and take Wiggins salary and Joseph’s expiring (if Warriors are 6-8 games out of 10th…this is important) around mid-late January on Reddit, and got pretty bad reception. What do you think about it? I think that the likelihood of them making the play-in would be slim even with Grant if they’re 7 games out that close to AS break. They’re still a Curry injury away from blowing a huge stretch of games, Grant does nothing to help in the distributing department.
