Yeah, but just like Steph, he can't maintain this anymore. He can perform at his old level only like 1 out of 4 games now, because defending like that takes a ton of energy.

That's one advantage of watching them live when they come to Toronto. A loud crowd. And NOW we can even get some anti-Trump booing of the US National Anthem. Dubs win or lose, its a Win-Win!

". . . is there anyone in the league that could replace Dray in this system? I’m sure plenty could make the passes, but between the accuracy and within the flow? Who realistically?" Answer: Gui Santos.

Steph playing hurt for too long, if he doesn’t get time to sit out and heal, he’s going to do long term damage.
The older we get, the longer it takes to heal, just a fact

And they craziest part is, instead of developing players, you tell them to pass the ball to Steph. If they don't, you'll trade them for a superstar.....WHO WON'T PASS THE BALL TO STEPH ANYWAYS!
Irvin Mugo
2025-02-05 03:54:53 +0000 UTC
"need someone who is going to want his, and not be content to stand around watching Steph pound the air out of the ball." That may be true, but we already have players like that in Wigs and JK at least, and maybe Moody, too (channeling Klay). But if the coach says "You have Steph Curry on your team, you pass the ball," and sits you if you don't, then you're not gonna get the production you need even if you trade for any of these players on the market.

The NBA orchestrated the Luka trade.
(Alc and Dwade have touched on this as well.)
And of course Nico Harrison, one of LeBron's besties, is involved in this whole shit..........
The NBA is betting on Europe to boost their brand as well as potentially launching a new Europe league with FIBA.
Look at the PR so far:
- Wemby playing chess at the park
- Post-game Q&As humanizing Jokic
- The Spurs-Pacers Paris Games

Losing Steph would not help that…I think if Steph knew for sure they were not trying to get anyone, he could have asked for a trade.
But they’re pretending to pursue everyone, but I don’t think they really are

Could the lack of Curry’s separation be from fear of re-rolling the ankle in his shoes?
Also, is there anyone in the league that could replace Dray in this system? I’m sure plenty could make the passes, but between the accuracy and within the flow? Who realistically?

The only thing we should do at the deadline is trade Draymond and Hield for draft picks
KuraiT
2025-02-04 23:41:41 +0000 UTC
hey chat. I know a lot of people like Franz Wagner and wish he was picked instead of JK. how many of you think Steve Ker would let him shoot any 3s or midrange shots if he played for the warriors with that ugly looking jump shot? Now think what JK could be if he had that kind of freedom for 3.5 years

Idk, maybe I'm just pessimistic now, but I don't think there is a single superstar in the league that could help us win now. Especially because even if we got someone who is literally better than Steph, Steve Kerr only knows one style and that superstar will have to succumb to whatever bs style of play Steve would come up with to make sure Steph is still doing the stuff we hate.

Neal X
2025-02-04 22:00:47 +0000 UTC
Which is why us landing a scorer who is more ball dominant could actually help us, in contrast to a lot of teams in the league; need someone who is going to want his, and not be content to stand around watching Steph pound the air out of the ball. Big credit to A Wiggs stepping up in looking to score and draw fouls, but we need more. JK was that guy, but now we've almost forgotten what we were starting to look like before he went down. What a huge blow.

I was dying when Podz pushed Mosely out of his way. He has yet to be intimidated by anyone. There’s security in that for any team who has him.
So weird we have no idea what this team will look like next week. The dubs players teams want aren’t the ones that Lacob wants to give up. What will break that tension?

Moody played in some very big playoff games. Remember season 1&2 he got no run and then came in for some run in the WCF.
Seriously though - Steph is getting old. He’s not consistent on a nightly basis. I think it’s time to rebuild in a gentlemanly way. Win is a win
Gary
2025-02-04 21:08:51 +0000 UTC
Pretty clear that Suggs is their heart and soul. If he can’t stay healthy, they go nowhere. Alch, looks to me like Podz is slowing down his 3pt release and reminding himself to get more arc on his shot. He shoots way better when he’s gets a lot of arc. Do you see that?

I mean what's new with Steph's shot selection. I mean I spend every game saying, "no that's a bad shot, no that's a bad pass, oh great he's over-dribbling." This is the norm for Steph nowadays. It shouldn't be a surprise, that's why Wiggs and JK need to be the engine and Steph should be the fancy chrome body wrap on the car.
