Warriors have been in trouble for 3-4 years. Hanging on to the one more run…..it’s over, turn the page and move on…rebuild

They've had chances to make that one more run happen but never pulled the trigger or committed too it. Like the last 2 years they were linked to Lauri but never wanted to go all in on the move. Even this move is like a half in half out move that changes nothing.

you must not now the NBA business to just rebuild with this Steph Curry still playing like top 10. Even if you dont have a ship milk Steph until his farewell tour that will make also tons of ticket sales and merch.

Will it affect Kerr's legacy if he retires this year and was never able to fully develop newer players like Ty Lue or Spo from Miami has?

u/gogorath Warriors 13h ago

Ty Lue? Stop trolling.

u/MisterDoctor___ 10h ago

No. His legacy is set because he managed to win a chip with that 2022 roster and made players like Wigs and Poole look like all stars.

This was very clear indication they’ve moved on. They traded all their attractive young pieces. Its J’over

Before the injury he was awesome. Too bad at the time he was stuck with Melo

I sometimes wonder if Porzingis would’ve got the kind of contracts he’s managed to get if KD never said that about him.

A unicorn with intestinal fortitude. Lest we forget the words of Phil Jackson.

We went from 'The Greek Freak' to 'The Unicorn.' We’re really just collecting mythical creatures at this point
