What's your wrist watch Charlie?
What happen to the wife, I miss her
I'm not sure that I get the full consternation with Kuminga's salary… unless I'm mistaken, only we can offer him a "max" (as owner of his draft rights), Melton and Gary are on expiring contracts, together they equal about 22 million. add the 7.6 he's making this year and that's 29.6 right there… Is Moody still here next year? (that's the 2 lottery picks dilemma), he's 5.8 this year, Do we keep Gui? That's about 2, we can get Post and Beekman on the cheap and draft salaries arent prevented by cap position.
Tristan Vucevic is a very good 3pt shooter but gives no rim protection for a 7 footer… that makes you just a well off with Post, If anything i would consider Hunter Dickenson in the 2nd rd next year.
Warriors should trade for Naz Reid
At best we are the Sacramento Kings. I'd say blow it up, trade Steph for picks and let him get a 5th ring.
I wonder who started this nonsense about Melton's wingspan being 7'3" – his wingspan in 6'8.5" (officially measured during the 2018-2019 draft combine). For sports journalists, be careful about info from Fitz and Kelena. Charlie, TJD is actually 24yrs old (as of Feb, 2024).
Nick Richards is whom they need. Run and jump athlete, long and is defensive.
I'm on my 3rd (4th?) host of this show now and I'm cool with this, I'm hoping that we dont devolve (here) into bi-weekly rants of "Kerr doesn't know what he's doing, hates young guys and big Men, is responsible for all the roster acquisitions and I could do so much better."
With all the hypeâs now, the problem of KJ will be solved itself at the end of the season when GSW fails again, Bobby Heild over shines , Curry, and Kerr being fired. clearly, Curry is over the hill, earned way to much, he is becoming the road block to the future.
But KJ is NOT the future of GSW, his ball IQ limited him.
