Underrated comment 😂💯

If we are being honest, the warriors didn’t make the playoffs because they were missing green for nearly half the season. Once he was back and integrated back into the lineup, they were one of the upper quarter of teams in the league. We know of course Green missing that time was mostly his own fault. (He missed all of training camp, preseason and the first few games of the season due to injury so that isn’t his fault, but the two suspensions clearly were). Upside for them was that green being out allowed them to develop and get reps for Kuminga, Pordzinski and Jackson-Davis. Assuming Green doesn’t miss almost half a season again due to suspension and is there, adding someone like George would definitely help their chances. That being said, it’s probably safer to assume green won’t get suspended for half the season than it would be that George won’t miss considerable time to injury which has seem to be a trend the last several seasons.

PG has fulfilled his contractual obligation to the Clippers, he owes them nothing. And since a organization can trade a player whenever they want regardless of contracts, NO PLAYER owes any organization anything except their effort once the game starts.

Klay should retire a warrior but at some point he gotta get paid for what he’s worth not what he WAS worth. The Warriors did right by Klay when they gave him the supermax(5years/190million) after he tore his ACL in the 2019 finals. He then tore his Achilles.

Not a slight discount. He is realistically worth close to a vet minimum if we have any intention of competing for a championship. He was unplayable at times this year, countless errors and inefficient, 0-10, etc. really hurt the team especially with the shitty attitude. If it's about money for Klay, go see what you can get from Orlando. We need to fill our roster with actually helpful young players, who are athletic and can play defense, play team basketball and have a good attitude. Right now solid role players like KCP, Malik Monk, Bruce Brown are easily more valuable than Klay and look what they're getting paid.

Stephen a really do act like a sassy girl

Bringing back Klay Thompson stabilizes things, to allow for the transaction that we already made to carry things forward, which is mainly our young guys stepping up. Payton and Looney are largely taking a back seat. TJD will play however many minutes at C for us as he can; hopefully he can be effective for 25 minutes a night. Podziemski is now the 3rd Guard for the Warriors; hopefully he can be effective for 20 minutes a night. Kuminga is the downhill bullet that we've been missing; hopefully the off-season work gets him more comfortable at the 3, but the expectation is that he plays 25-30 minutes a night. Moody is now the glue guy, playing 2/3/maybe some 4, but mixing and matching throughout. 15 Steph plays 35, Wiggins and Draymond play 30, Klay plays 25-30 minutes a night. Still some time left to be covered (maybe Looney finds his form again, maybe we get a new Big). If the young guys step up, they're additive to a Play-in team that had Draymond for 20 less games than they should. We have Draymond for the full season, and we're out of the Play-in; we start the full season with what we figured out late, and the team wins 55 games. Will be a rebound year for the West and all that, so maybe that projected 55 win team, only actually wins 50; it's still a team that clears the Play-in, without really knowing what Moody contributes (Kuminga stuck, Podziemski showed early, TJD showed late)

Man, I’ll be sad if Klay leaves

I like how Mad Dog, in the same sentence asking why Paul George can not be loyal to the Clippers, but then says why the Warriors should keep Klay Thompson, and he doesn't see the irony there 😂

The way these analysts who never played basketball always disrespect hof near the end of their careers is crazy

Bob said Klay AND PG-13 like he thinks having both of them is a real option. 😮

Klay should go to the Indiana Fever. He would compliment Caitlin Clark very well.

Mad Dog: "I made a commitment to this franchise. I owe it to this franchise to stay here!" 1) Your commitment ends when your contract ends. You are free to sign wherever. No questions asked. 2) Teams will trade a player mid-contract. So, why should player commit beyond their contract when teams get to trade players when they feel like it?

Genuine question; when was the last time a star player chased a ring and actually got a chip? LeBron?

Keeping Thompson!

Klay should want to go to the clippers and join all those stars on that team!

GSW still refuses to get a legitimate center smh

If they get PG…you can replace Klay with a very versatile player. PG can play defense. He can score and shoot. Not the shooter Klay is but PG gives them so many options without sacrificing defense.

I don't see PG being a good fit for the Warriors. If they go for a max contract, they wouldn't be able to find a center and TJD is still developing. Kevon is retained for his final contract season I believe. But I'm hoping Klay doesn't become greedy and accept what the Warriors are offering
