The Warriors REAL Biggest Problem is NOT Draymond Green
Traymont green is back though absolutely incredible it’s absolutely incredible where the Warriors they’ve given up at least 70 points in a half and five of the last six games they just don’t play they got 46 points in the fourth Flor against Milwaukee they played hard
Friday night I was like wow you give him 73 points to the Bulls in the first half 75 points to the Bulls in the first half and you come back and win that basketball game wild so Dray mon g is going to be back I did some crunching of the numbers
What’s that um I have it let me just pull up on my notes by the way the Warriors 8 and8 when Dre mree was out 8 and8 so he missed a month right yeah 88 60 games so if you just you know extrapolate the Jonathan kaminga games
During that time frame kaminga is the third leading scorer for the Warriors he was averaging about 25 minutes a game yep and averaging basically 16 points a game yeah double figers in 19 straight games he had 28 uh 28 Saturday against Milwaukee and I love the way he was
Attacking into the the chest of Brook Lopez over and over and over again back to back good games I thought he was a total professional Friday night against Chicago total professional why do you say that cuz he’s he’s talked a lot right uhhuh and he came off the as
Steve K shook it up after they got just I guess Toronto and the Pelicans they just didn’t show up in the first quarter didn’t show up in the first half it was embarrassing so he starts Andrew Wiggins yeah and kiga could have sulked could have came in half-hearted I thought he
Played like an absolute Pro his screen that he set late in the game to open up Stephen Curry for a late jumper Friday night against Chicago I thought he just played play like a Prof professional he grew up over the weekend so I was proud
Of him I was proud of him and I would not trade him I cannot trade him well again when you look at like the amount of uh paint points that this guy gets and you look at this team in an area where they are completely deficient what
Is it scoring in the paint yeah and that’s what John D Kinga does better than anyone on the roster G that yess what G y exactly I I I just I I I just don’t understand the kaminga hate there are a lot of people out there that just
Love to hate on kaminga and I just find it to be media media members too just pinpoint him because like like he’s the only problem on the team right no yeah Andrew Wingin is the biggest problem on a team solid game Friday night against Chicago doesn’t show up against
Milwaukee goes three of 13 so if we’re talking trades and I hate doing this cuz I Wiggins will always be a champion with the go to St Warriors we’ll never forget what he did but you know what we’re going to make moves I’m starting with him all right he’s the biggest problem
Kika is not my problem Kam just wants to play and I’m not mad at that young guy wants to play Because he believes he could make an impact I could roll with that all day long well what’s what’s interesting to me is like we’re like kaminga he he didn’t play defense on
That possession and and he’s so inconsistent have you watched Andrew Wiggins for the last year has anyone he has been you want to talk about inconsistent the guy’s on a milk carton for three out of five games four out of five okay four out of five I me going
Into Chicago his last three games inuring Chicago he was four of 19 and he scored a grand total of 11 points grab something like six rebounds or something like it was embarrassing embarrassing I’ve come to the conclusion that there are certain players in sports I don’t
Know what it is and I don’t think it it falls on the line of what sport you play or what position you play or what what your ages or or ethnicity or any of those I don’t think it has anything to do with that I just think for some
Reason there are certain players that are lightning rods for criticism unfairly and others get to skate I don’t get it I don’t I don’t get what kaminga has done to people for them to just hyperfocus on the negative and never give him any credit for the positive it
Kind of drives me crazy Andrew wig gets six six rebounds 11 points in those three games did he he bounced back against Chicago I thought he was very aggressive in the first quarter nine points in the first quarter scored 17 he Dro eight eight Dives in that game
Against the Bulls how about Kobe white though Kobe white Kobe white uh also I don’t know if you know this but they reached a point in the season where you can trade him now yes but they I don’t think I don’t see him trading him because he only makes $12 million over
The next I know the next two years so 24 million is total 12 Mill but I told you Kobe white is a guy everybody’s focused on Zack LaVine Rosen give me Kobe white I like give me Kobe white second in the league in blowb told you about Kobe I
Was very impressed watch it Kobe white is nice was very but Andrew wickins he hasn’t earned the equity after what’s happened over the last here I mean look he went through the personal situation and he missed two months and everybody gave him his grace he’s come back apparently not in shape he’s playing
Every other game he doesn’t deserve to start but Steve K started him whatever he goes 3 and 13 Saturday night against Milwaukee seven points four rebounds if it wasn’t for JK the Warriors would have got blown out and then of course Klay had a rough
Night on the back end of a back toback but he got hot in the fourth quarter like we were so focused on Klay Thompson early on of the season and the youngsters it’s Andrew Wiggins and it’s Draymond Green so Draymond Green gets to come back tonight rectifi trying to
Rectify the situation but I am you know what shaso to go 88 without Draymond Green in a weird way is pretty oppressive for the Warriors yeah it’s a miracle could have been a lot worse oh absolutely could have been a lot worse Bonte they could have easily been blown
Out of every single game yep so yeah there’s no doubt about it that’s how important Draymond is and it’s also how kind of frustrating this roster construction is you know I think both are true simultaneously I’m watching this team the other night and I said to
You at the break earlier today I go who the hell is number 18 oh jerro Robinson who like what who is that guy what we have all these draft picks and we got all these two-way players there’s been 50 articles written about GE Santos and I’m watching Jerome Robin who
Who I don’t for former first round round pick of the LA Clippers when uh 2018 1998 2018 Jesus 2018 you get what I’m saying like that’s my problem like I’m watching this team not my problem problem you know he’s he’s a two L guy he’s not going
To they had so many guys out with gp2 and Chris Paul of course Moses Moody that you had to dust off somebody I see quer weather spoon well he’s on another G League te I know they should have kept him right he’s on another g- League team
Now we’re picking for qu know but I’m just saying like he’s another guard plays the same position make it safe position uh by the way the second with sparts M go to say Lumber serving to Bay Area for three generations when you succeed we succeed visit goto lumber.com
Look joining us later on the boxer girls and guest line boxer G guest line am fared 8:30 we saw a fared in the studio all week along doing big things in NBC yeah and of course to Michael Cole writes from uh covers of Memphis Grizzlies out there at Memphis we’ll get

Will the Warriors make any significant trades before the deadline? Otherwise, this current team will not even make the play-in tournament.
Steve Kerr didn't play Kuminga in the 4th quarter until the last couple of minutes because of Looney? If they trade Kuminga they will regret it.Nothing against Looney but he can't do what Kuminga can do. Steve Kerr really making bad decisions in the 4th quarter with Kuminga and he's really hurting the Warriors !!!!
Draymond is also not the answer. Warriors were under .500 with him this year. He will also take away minutes from the younger guys like Kuminga, Trayce and Moody who we need to develop
There problem is Kerr
Kerr is pathetic! Just let Klay stink up the place.
When Steph rested it showed the Warriors are not serious about this season. They need wins, but resting is more important.
Draymond isn’t going to help us at all but put up triple singles
Scoring in the paint? Scoring from the 3 sucks
GS media always ready to fall on that Draymond sword. Pathetic. Adam Silver is now complicit in putting the final nail in the box.
Bonta i raise you Anthony Lamb and Ty Jerome as argument as why we could be seeing Robinson more.
Kuminga's biggest hater is Steve Kerr! I hope Draymond just keeps his head. No matter what he does (JK), he'll get pulled and Kerr will give the minutes to unknowns, and I'm still not impressed by Podziemski.
It’s that excuse of a coach that’s the real problem.
DARIO SARIC!!! DARIO SARIC!!! DARIO SARIC!!!
Steph curry is here and now . Screw warriors basketball in 2028-2033 . Screw it . We have a generational talent that has been home grown . Sell the future for him . Screw them kids . Trade them all if it gets us more rings . Win . Now .
Cant wait. Perfect timing too. This will give kerr a clearer view of what he can do with the line up. I still love to see TJD, dray, jk, klay and curry. I see a good boost and some wins will be won. Dray makes a huge difference. Especially now that the young crew has been playing. Warrrriorrrrrssss!
Kerr has to go ! He is the biggest problem.
At times it feels that kerr is sabotaging the team. Kerr has something against kuminga. There’s no reason why looney or wigs should be playing more minutes than the young guys
Imagine how far moody and kuminga development would be if Kerr actually played them over lamb and ty Jerome last year
Also, why is looney not getting any criticism. He’s getting out rebounded, he can’t defend, he can’t score. He sets great screens, that’s all he does. He’s the last one to run up and down the court
