It’s still really strange for an NBA team not to even have a back up center

Loongod is legit, but jfc this article was a horrible read. I get all the metaphors and imagery but give it a rest. Curry hangs chandeliers and paints 🤮

“To examine his 35-year-old face, observe his 55-year-old hips, realize the depth of his 75-year-old brain and know his ambiguous place in in the hierarchy of the Warriors is to understand [his] comfort in being surrounded by those for whom the spotlights search.”
A gem of a sentence with many truths packed in. We would be nowhere without this man.
Even as a die hard warriors fan, I believe I underappreciate Loon. I sometimes catch myself thinking: “Can you imagine this team with a real center, how good we would be?” And then I have to step back and realize — this is the man. We have Loon. What else could we need? He fulfills every need we have from the center position. (A backup sure would be nice though.)

It’ll be a really really sad day in the off season when we make a dumbass trade for a center for some other team and forget all about looney. Looney is THE man. But the warriors have a habit of forgetting that in the offseason.

If we get a 5th ring does Loon get a statue?

What Looney is asked to do seems unfair, but he’s responded at every turn.
