The Warriors never gave Wiseman a chance. I lost a lot of respect for Steve Kerr. How was Wiseman suppose to get better sitting on the end of the bench. I’m a Warrior fan but I hope Wiseman get a chance to develop in Detroit and go on to have a great career. Loony was given four years to develop as a player. Wiseman don’t look back keep moving forward you got dealt a bad hand by the Warriors.
I would’ve waited for victor wembanyama if I were the pistons but oh well
Wow
Malika thinks she's Windhorst 💀
All time bust
Just gonna get this out there that, except for Richard Jefferson, EVERYBODY..and i mean EVERYBODY on this panel's face and voice annoys the fvck out of me. Bunch of morons when it comes to basketball who just like to hear themselves talk. Only person i might feel is cool is Kendra Andrews but shes Malika's sister so her character is immediately in question as well.
Wiseman is not a bust, the Warriors are the bust. Wise get injured and he is a bust? No the Warriors are trying to win a championship with aging players and Wiseman is a casualty of a team in panic mode. Whoever said he is bust probably have never played sports. Sometimes you got to look at the coaching.😮
Weaver making Small Big moves I like this trade for our future
I hope Wiseman becomes a star. I blame Kerr for not giving him any meaningful minutes. Kerr doesnt like young guys. Look at how long it took for Kerr to start playing Kuminga.
He's a bust. Kwame Brown 2.0
Warriors mad a gigantic mistake not drafting Lamelo.
L
Yeahhh lets go
The warriors regret this for sure.
Pistons got Bagley,#2 pick, Wiseman #2 pick. Very similar players,they are both guys who are talented but just need a chance to get meaningful minutes.
As Warrior fan myself I love Gary Payton coming back to the Warrior kindness like ideas get Bey on this roster. Sad new is Bey go to Atlanta Hawk
Now he’s gonna go off lol
To be fair want Anthony Edward on my Warrior team instead of James Wiseman and Lamelo Ball. I wish James Wiseman the best luck on his new teams sorry it didn’t work out for you
I can not believe that we traded a 2nd overall draft, pure big man for an unstaffed player. Hello, We need center,big man, not guard.
So do the Warriors get anyone? Lol
Wiseman will improve in motorcity
I said during the draft – he was not right for that team – I hope he has a good career
The story nobody is talking about is how getting rid of James Wiseman for no player in return – they got five second round picks, which in a later trade they used to get GP2 back. The Warriors saved $130 million in luxury tax according to John Hollinger of The Athletic. That's probably why they "gave up" on Wiseman, why pay 130 mill on a guy who doesn't start.
Kerr is not a player developer type of coach
Horrible trade for the pistons. They have to many big now. and you trade Saddiq Bey a guy that gave you a few 50pt games for a guy that only putting up 6ppg. WTH are they thinking, and no draft picks to go with it. 🤦🏽♂🤦🏽♂🤦🏽♂
Wiseman always looked a step slow when out on the floor.
Hot take…Kendra is finer than malika
This has been a major L for the warriors. Will be ine of the great what ifs. Imagine they traded down and drafted Desmond bane or Bay
Has a ring technically
Good pickup he’ll play good with Wembanyamaw
he's done, imo
Guess the Warriors should have drafted LaMelo instead
Kendrick looking like the uncle at Thanksgiving. who never comes around And knows everybody talks about how he doesn't spend time with his kids.
Please let's us get wemby cade wiseman and our 22 pick on the same team I'm calling it now the east is ours
The warriors could've atleast gotten a better package for him
Bey still under contract..Im sure wouldve gotten more return for Bey. Payton ain't worth 5 2nd rounders but too bad warriors love him too much so yeah. Cenzo is like Gp2 and pretty sure cenzo too expensive to keep and GP2 still under contract that's why the desperation for him was there. Welps GG to warriors #2 pick what a bad pick..Couldve traded down for several bigs back then. I mean warriors never liked real bigs that play heavy mins so yeah you know they like small ball. Hopefully a good backup big will be available buyout market. I rate this trade a C just because Bey and 2nd rounders would've helped this offseason getting more depth. B+ for getting Gp2 back. Time to let iggy retire and free up the spots for Bigs/Wing players
Steve Kerr never gave him a chance to begin with and then quit on him. Per minutes he outperformed Looney and was ready but he a coach that didn’t believe in him and refused to ever give him an opportunity 😤
If I was the pistons I'd better have been buying low on this deal……
Omg these girls are Finsta models not respected journalists. Nothing personal. Wasn't there beef with iguodala and the warriors reporter? Maybe I'm wrong idk
Gonna be great not being fault warriors are the 💩 development team in the league, Kerr and warriors can’t develop nobody , mark Jackson did what they have left
Well he will definitely get a chance to prove himself valuable the rest of the season with Detroit because outside of Bojan and ivey a rookie and cade out for this season…. Detroit has nothing
They basically traded wiseman for Gary Payton
Wise, sorry to see you go but I think a great career is ahead of you. Just stay healthy and I look forward to seeing you on the court where you get opportunities to develop (unlike being kept on the bench).
MISSING PART OF THE TRADE (!): The 5 picks now went to Portland to get Gary Payton back . . .
He gone play better in Detroit
They could have drafted lamelo ball 🤦🏿♂️
