Of course he has a ton of pull. The point is that he doesn't have LeGm or harden like privileges with the team. Nor does he act like an entitled diva when the organizations decision is contrary to his public desire. Damian lee is an end of rotation/development guy that's been on other teams radar/system other than just the warriors. Imo he's a good hardworking player for his salary. I don't think he's on the team because he's curry's in law, but maybe you're privy to inside info. Seth curry, Stephs own brother wasn't signed by the warriors during his 2013,14 g league campaign, despite being on their g-league team. The Cavs and the grizz signed him and cut him. As well as the wolves suns and others before he finally caught on with the king's in 2015.
Well Curry is the exception, not the norm. Call it toxic or whatever but then most, if not all winning situations are toxic in this league. Especially a place with multiple superstars.
You missed the point here. It's NOT that McHale was let go but rather HOW he was let go. I'm with you, McHale had to go. Harden came in after a game and demanded they either get rid of McHale or trade him. Now usually when an organization makes this sort of decision, it's done at the top by the owner & GM after some sort of meeting/conversation/deliberation. In this instance, they (Alexander & Morey) allowed Harden to make that call. He's owned this organization ever since. When you dance with the devil...
Happens a lot. It happens ALOT. And honestly, we were better off for it. Harden/Morey/Dantoni partnership has brought us a lot of success. And if Harden was so in control, WHY DID WE NOT SPEND IN THE LUXURY TAX.
He is so evil that the same people sending out these exaggerated leaks were the same people offering him 50 plus million a year extension just a month ago? So he wasn’t bad then but he has become a problem after he demanded a trade? Something doesn’t add up
Agreed. My post was only to point out the exception in reply to someone who claimed it didn't exist. Superstars, hell just stars in the nba are going to want/get special treatment. The reality is they simply have enormous value/worth/leverage. Teams should treat them differently. There should however be a line or a reasonable limit to the special treatment.
Whatever, I’m so sure you would put a star player is his place. Not like taking the allowance from a kid. You are mistaken Xi Jinping
You are just wrong. Curry wasn’t an MVP when Mark Jackson was outed. He was a runt growing up with Draymond and Klay back then. I said top 10 player....Curry wasn’t considered that until a year later in 14/15 when Kerr took over. And when you are surrounded by 3 or 4 all stars you don’t need to dictate anything. Mark Jackson spoke up against homosexuality as per his belief in the Bible, it is believed it insulted a front office executive who happened to be homosexual. This is why they got rid of Mark Jackson.....or as it is believed. Do you really think Curry wanted to make a stand on that.......really? No. https://www.sportscasting.com/is-former-warriors-coach-mark-jackson-really-blackballed-in-the-nba/ Get over your Curry is special crap. I bet he jets off all the time when his wife is doing a cooking show or his kids will have a game or recital. You are not based in reality. All the true stars are spoiled brats and they see how their respective teams give them preferential treatment and desire that. Like a child sees another child getting everything they want just by throwing a temper tantrum.. Don’t want it......don’t win then. Miami got to the finals without that spoiled brat player this past season.....other than Butler maybe. But couldn’t get over the hump vs a team with probably two of them in LeBron and AD. You don’t think LeBron is missing time to do movies and commercials? Hanging out with Maverick Carter talking projects?
Lol, he never acted out like this, you really think Morey, MDA, Russ, all left because of Harden, only to try to recruit him to Philly/Brooklyn where they are now because he has caused drama? Use some logical reasoning and look at the pattern of events over the course of the past few years.
After seeing what Dort, LeBron and AD did to Russ and Harden I can't believe anybody thinks Jordan with Pippen wouldn't shut them... these are like 2 out of 5 best on ball defenders of all time
I'm on team Harden because I've eaten at landry's, Joe's Crab shack, bubba gump shrimp, and Mccormick and Schmicks unfortunately. All were pretty craptacular.
Wrong it is Tilman too. One thing is Harden being a diva another is this owner being cheap and not allowing Morey to get more depth. Also Tilman is an ass
