Tsk, sayanag naman si Klay Thompson. He didn't even get a bigger contract, just additional 1 yr. Dapat binigay na ng GSW. Parang mahina tong si Dunleavy. Wala wenta rin so far walang good movement for GSW. Parang goodbye season na ulit for Steph.
The Warriors just keep making terrible moves.
They gave up Klay Thompson for two second-round picks despite the Lakers offering D'Angelo Russell.
They waived Chris Paul and lost him for nothing, even though the Bulls offered Zach LaVine for CP3 & Andrew Wiggins.
To make matters worse, GS previously traded Jordan Poole to get Chris Paul, meaning they gave away Poole for absolutely nothing, effectively salary dumping a 25-year-old for a 39-year-old, who they then salary dumped onto waivers.
So the Warriors’ final haul for Klay, CP3 and Poole was two second-round picks.
But it gets worse. They also forced Wiggins to withdraw from his debut Olympics with Canada, seemingly to prevent injury and preserve his trade value. But when presented with an opportunity to trade him for LaVine, they declined.
There’s also a clear conflict of interest there, with Steve Kerr serving as Team USA's coach and likely playing a role in holding Wiggins out of a dangerous Canadian team.
Golden State also messed around with Jonathan Kuminga and Moses Moody’s playing time, leading to Kuminga publicly calling out Steve Kerr and then proceeding to play extremely well when he finally received more minutes.
The Warriors were even making blunders as far back as drafting James Wiseman second overall in 2020, and then holding onto him for too long.
For a team that was once infinitely better than the rest of the league, this is a stunning fall from grace.
