    There is nothing to consider because you are making arguments against points I didn't make. You quoted me, I really could not care less what you have going on.

    You can be pretty dense. It's like nothing gets through to you. YOU... yes.. you.. made excuses for Curry losing because of his teammates.

    Anyway, quit making excuses for Curry. He shouldn't need them. Harden didn't need them last year.

    You mean Stevie Boy has to actually coach and can't hand the clipboard off to a player?

    On 2nd thought, they're tanking err injured so maybe he doesn't.
    On 3rd thought, as someone else said here or in another thread, his back issues suddenly pop up and he takes a LOA.

    I really wanted to see Curry fail miserably at trying to carry a bunch of nobodies....And watch the media bend over backwards to make excuses when he didn’t.

    Imagine losing KD (All-Star, top 5 player), Thompson (All-Star), Curry (All-Star, top 10 player, maybe top 5), Iguodala (All-Star)...

    ...and still having 2 All-Stars in Green and Russell still on your team.

    while we make fun of these warriors...all i can think about is how they managed 3 titles and the astros could only squeak out one. 3 titles is so damn hard, these guys did well

    Honestly, I think trading Draymond might be a good choice. I don't think he's going to get better than he ever was, and he can't inflate his numbers much without Curry as a stress reliever. Curry will be gone for a while, and Thompson might not even play this season.

    Trading Draymond nets you draft pick(s) and can save you some money in the process. It would allow Russell to have his value skyrocket because the team is going to be just DeAngelo.

    SOOOOOO
    If they get the number 1 pick this summer, and Milwaukee loses in say the second round, you guys don’t think Giannis is 100% trying to force a trade to the Warriors?!?

    I wanted them to lose, but not become this bad. Now they will end up with a top player to add in the draft when everyone comes back. smh

    It's like baseball. You want to bunch your hits in the same stretch rather than scatter them here and there.

    What's ironic is that the owner's wallet won't suffer too much this season with the empty seats. Sure, there will be a hit, but the overwhelming number of those seats without butts in them will be paid for by season ticket holders.

    Welcome to the world of the Rockets playing in the Toy Box.

    That won’t be the narrative considering they’ll be worst in the league.

    Him and Steph have a bit of a bromance. All it’ll take is for a disappointing Bucks playoff run.

    Well way to go guys!! Curry was going to get a free pass anyway from the media but now he's guaranteed to, and then they'll tank and reload. Probably when Curry is ready they'll just hold him out. It'll be interesting to see what they do here.

    Also, not serious about the w2g part, haha
