Dude is just a perfect fit for the warriors and not just about anywhere crazy how the warriors continue to unlock the potential of otherwise average players
Portland stole this deal jhjhjhjhjhjhjhj
Warriors are done
I’m not a Warriors fan so maybe I just don’t get it but, why not keep Bey? He’s a longer, more versatile defender and much better on offense. I’d much rather have Bey over GP2, even though I like his game a lot
Bro needs to learn Chinese
Tnhk y Jesus
They missed really bad on Wiseman.. Moody too to a lesser degree.. Dray was right.. thru young old mix isn't the way.. are we competing or developing..?
This guy was like a little Draymond Green to me. He will always be a Warriors, might as well bring back JTA as well if Lakers are willing to trade him to Utah.
YES!
GP2 went to Portland for rehab. That's all. 🤣
GP2 just became the #2 pick the draft. He's good, but L for the Warriors in the long run considering they could've just paid him in the first place.
Warriors defense is back
S/o to Bob Myers for this. We need now more than ever. The west got crazier.
Yessssirrrrr this the one
Finally they’ll have someone that plays defense
SO HAPPY!!!
I think, of all the trades that have happened, on a personal level, I'm geniunely happy to see this one go through. After hearing about GP II's journey, I found myself rooting for him. When he was originally cut from the team, he was literally willing to work on staff (on the video team, I think), just to stay with the organization. Other guys would have gone overseas. I'm glad it worked out for him and GSW. Seems like a match made in basketball heaven…
I know cenzo is like younger version of GP2 but he's too expensive to keep probably and GP2 under contract for couple years!!! Buyout market will be huge for warriors to get a real impactful big than wiseman…Iggy time to retire to free up the spot
I'm happy he got his deal. We essentially traded wiseman for GP2. That is strange that we gave up on a 21 year old so easily, i get you he's got some degenerative knee condition or something that's like you know what, better cut our losses now, that was a weak draft anyway….
Greatest trade ever! Sad they didn’t just keep him but glad they brought him back!
