Nobody is held to the same standard as lebron and nobody ever has been. But they’ll sure compare ppl to him every day of the week when they don’t even belong in the same sentence!
Steph didn't lose in an embrassing way, and Steph is loyal, this alone puts him in month Rushmore, let's see who can achieve the accolades Steph achieved in this era without switching teams
It is not over. But there comes a point where management has to go with loyalty versus making a championship team. As long as they have Curry, just like the Bucks and Giannis, they will always have a chance at a title. The Warriors need to make several personnel changes to make it happen - some unpopular, which means some pieces have got to go or take a lesser role. And I'm not talking Draymond Green, as popular as his name shows up in a lot of people's lists, he's actually still very important to the Warriors success even though his "stats" don't show it.
I think people are not understanding how good the Lakers are. I've watched just about every game of the Lakers this year and they have been the best team since the trades by a mile. Look at the teams that are left and besides the Lakers, who would you pick to beat GSW? Definitely not MIA. GSW have a clear psychological edge over BOS and DEN doesn't have the battle tested grit of GSW. Lakers are just that good.

Sometimes you need luck. Injuries can affect the outcome of a series. The warriors dynasty would not have succeeded without kd. Guarding klay, kd and curry was somehow difficult.

We really could be seeing the last chapter of this dynasty. Steph Curry is 35, Klay Thompson is 33, Draymond Green is 33. Klay is set to be a free agent next summer. Draymond has a chance to opt out of his contract this summer. Steve Kerr has two years left on his contract. Bob Myers could be on his way out.

@@tucansam3147 klay also shot 34% from the field in the finals and his defence really bad I do think it’s time to trade while he still has some sort of value get like a Desmond bane who’s young and fresh
Everyone gets their day. The dynasty was over when KD left, the dynasty was over when Klay got hurt, the dynasty was over when they didn't trade their young pieces, and the dynasty was over when they had a 20% chance to beat the Celtics. As long as 30 is there, the dynasty is alive. Edit: Also props to Darvin Ham for a great series. Many lesser coaches would have folded under all the adjustments going back and forth each game (significantly more than any other series) but he was able to trade blows as a rookie head coach. Very impressive.
There's a big reason for Klay to take a pay cut, he got paid 30 million a year for two years when injured. I know it's unfair to say it but if he thinks about it, he is the only one who hasn't taken a pay cut for that squad. Green's current contract is a pay cut. Steph's first extension had him at 10 million a year. Klay got the max available in both his extensions. And in one he just got paid to rehab for half of it
The most overrated player in recent memory. The guy is a glorified spot up shooter a la Steve Novak. He's essentially useless on the court without his touch. That's the reason you guys lost.
Lakers are like a smash mouth football team who runs the ball and plays D…very difficult to beat, especially once they have the lead. They can keep you at bay with LBJ and AD who can gouge you for the deflating 4-5 yard runs by getting easy looks at the rim, they get to the FT line, play D, rinse and repeat. Been the best team in the NBA for months folks been sleep.
i've been surprised about how good they've become on the defensive end. I think they now have a legit chance to win it all if the defensive presence continues.
Exactly what I've been saying as well, when they made those trades, they fixed their depth holes with jumpshooters who can make shots consistently, and it's not like they have 1 or 2 guys that can do it, it's 4-5 guys who can go off for 20 in any game, Pelinka has done a masterful job fixing this team at the trade deadline. And you have to give Ham credit for the coaching adjustments he made.
SAS was ready with excuses bringing up Adams and Clark. Does this to Lebron every time by bringing up Draymond suspension but forgets to mention injuries to Kyrie and love in 15, Kawhi 17, CP3 in 18, Ja in 22
@@darkse1dd exactly like during 2021 there was lot of injuries. I just have problem with him because he keeps bringing up Draymond suspension but never brings up Kyrie and Love being hurt. And for the record Love didn’t play in 2016 finals game 3 so that kinda evens it out. He just can’t bring injuries when it benefits his only argument
They ask if the Dynasty is over every year, last year should be a reminder not to doubt them. It’s not over but they definitely need to make some changes
Everybody said the Warriors' dynasty was over in 2019 after losing to Toronto. Then the Warriors won another ring in 2022. The Warriors dynasty will never be dead until Curry, Klay, and Draymond retire
The problem with Kendrick Perkins is he wants the warriors dynasty to be over! He’s speaking from his desires! SAS is right IF they keep the core together & get the right pieces who know their role they’re capable of winning one more!
@@daltonhill3628 you sound like a hater💯🤦🏽♂️ nobody ever said that, but to debunk that they won with & without kd, also 73-9, that’s pretty unbeatable😂💯
The lakers beat them. If klay made shots, your narrative wouldn’t be. If curry made more his shots, your narrative wouldn’t be. The warriors were off because lakers killed them in the paint and defensively the warriors use their offense. We’re so used to seeing the shots being made by the splash brothers that when it don’t, we look for other things. Nah. Lakers beat them.
@@caligulalauren9071 you just made my point lol and yes the lakers played better defense but that’s not hard warriors defense this year wasn’t consistent. And your also not allowed to play aggressive against lebron you breath on him and it’s a foul.
I like how when the Warriors win the games they all praise all the shooting, defense and adjustments the Warriors did. But when the Lakers win they always just say that the warriors just having off games, discrediting that the lakers affected the Warrior’s mental and physical state with their defense, energy and adjustments. When will they accept that the Lakers are just better.
Klay deserves respect. The fact that they paid a rookie a max contract before him I don’t blame him for performing the way he did, for the lack of commitment and motivation for playing his absolute best.
People still sleep on the Lakers. Not only have they been the best team for months, they’re also tested. To go from last to this takes a lot of grit and means they’ve built a lot of team chemistry. This is juxtaposed to a team like PHX who just thought they could get through without being battle tested. Like I said vs Ws, Lakers in 5-6 and they go all the way.
They are. I always said that Westbrook doesnt fit because he doesnt play defense or is a jump shooter. Good fit on other systems, but not on a team with AD and Lebron. Always said give the Lakers a motivated Anthony Davis and a bunch of roleplayers who can make jump shots and they'd be back to being an elite team. It's easy to dismiss the Warriors but I remember the Warriors even though they swept them having trouble with maintaining Davis singlehandedly when he was with New Orleans.. and Lebron when he was carrying Cleveland. This is no accident that you combine the two together, the Warriors will have trouble, except the past two years AD and Lebron didnt have roleplayers who can make consistent jump shooters and played decent defense. It helps that Ham preaches that. You can tell how the Bucks and Warriors fell off when their assistant coaches left to coach elsewhere.
I feel like also alot of people seem to forget this, even though he is 38, does everyone realize who is the leader for this team. There isn't a better player to have as your leader to guide a bunch of youngsters to a finals, who has been in every situation possible in the playoffs. The team understands that lebron is the leader and they respect him, their togtherness I feel like is an under-rated aspect of why they have been the best team since the trade deadline. It's extremely difficult to beat a team that is tight with one another.
@@TheHomercles Yep. And people are looking at the Ws like ALL OF A SUDDEN....they're just bad. No. The Lakers are just that good. Besides the Lakers, I wouldn't pick any of the teams left over the GSW.
Warriors are in a tough position because of Klay and Draymonds contract situation. Those two have been as loyal as loyal can be deserve to be rewarded for it but at the same time if you reward their loyalty then you put yourself in the same position that you're in now.
If Lebron loses this series, Steph Curry takes Lebron's spot of Stephen A's Mt. Rushmore. When Curry loses, Ahh no biggie, they gonna come back. This clown also said Lebron fears Steph and GSW lol. Lebron is the one and only player who has mentally decoded the Warriors, and with help, he can dismantle them. Even Kerr said in an interview that Lebron is terrifying to play against.
It’s funny I don’t hear anything about Lebron vs Steph now. All the sudden it’s abort warrior dynasty being over or Steph need help? The agenda against Lebron is crazy.
Yep. I think people are just in denial and are not understanding how good the Lakers are. I've watched just about every game of the Lakers this year and they have been the best team since the trades by a mile. Look at the teams that are left and besides the Lakers, who would you pick to beat GSW? Definitely not MIA.

@@vernonharrison2488 The same way Steph had the best team in basketball history behind him facing injured teams and getting away with blatant moving screens his whole career? Just like you said: Can’t beat him, the team, and the refs.
Jordan Poole + Jonathan Kuminga + Moses Moody + 19th pick + 2026 first-rounder + 2026 second-rounder should be traded to the Raptors for OG Anunoby + Chris Boucher + Otto Porter Jr
Warriors have 2, maybe 3 more years of being relevant. Klay is now really a 3rd or 4th option so they need to find a solid 2nd behind Curry since Poole is a dud and should be traded. Poole is a prime example of giving someone too much money. The Warriors have no rim defense or anyone who can guard a big like AD, Jokic, etc. However, with that being said everyone always said how Tom Brady and the Patriots dynasty was over and then they kept winning super bowls. It is hard to count out a team with Kerr and Curry.
Naw. Klay is solid. Y'all just overreact to everything and aren't realizing the Lakers are just THAT good. Ask yourself, out of the teams let, who would you pick over the GSW? Not MIA. BOS is psychologically screwed by GSW and DEN doesn't have the battle tested grit of GSW. My point is twofold. 1. GSW aren't that bad 2. Lakers are just that good.
@@haywood0457 I've also been saying how good the Lakers are. It appeared like Klay has lost a step or two in his game. I also don't believe the dynasty is over yet, but GS needs to make some serious improvements in order to stay relevant in a difficult West.
To be honest, I've never seen the Warriors look as bad as they did this post season, it was as if they were just a shell of what they used to be. They literally got dragged to a game 7 in the first round by the Kings and were legit struggling, that to me was a tell sign that their empire has fallen but then to stand up against this particular current Lakers roster was an uphill battle all in itself.
The warriors are used to only playing against LeBron. That’s why he won with kyrie. When LeBron has an actual team 😊he doesn’t have to carry, it’s extremely difficult to win.
Klays game is one dimensional and I just think the rest of the league has caught up to them. Still great players but they need an inside threat, a big that can take pressure away from the 3 line
Out of all the teams left, besides the Lakers, who would you pick over GSW? Definitely not MIA. BOS is psychologically F'd by GSW, and DEN doesn't have the grit of the GSW. What I'm saying is this: *GSW is not as bad as some people are saying now...THE LAKERS ARE JUST THAT GOOD.* I told everyone Lakers in 5-6 vs GS and its the same vs DEN and whoever in the East. Bully ball and defense travels well.
Last year in the Finals, the way they played vs GS this season. As far as DEN, bruh, what core in the NBA has won 4 rings? You're asking a silly question and it highlights my comment in that people aren't realizing the Lakers are just good.
Klay needs to know when he's not shooting well, to stop.. that's his problem. When he's cold.. he stays cold. Thats the difference between him and Curry.
Bron has the warriors figured out? Literally took klays worst playoff series ever, a Kevon looney sickness which restricted his minutes so they had to play small, and a nonexistent Jordan Poole. The two shooters had zero to do with bron, they just couldn’t put the ball in the hoop. Wide open misses. Let’s not forget that he has a fellow top five player on his team when healthy in AD. I had the dubs winning this series cuz I thought klay would show up big and kevon looney could bang with AD leaving dray on bron which would’ve been the dubs ideal matchup but looney got sick.
The Warriors dynasty is still intact. All the warriors need is some depth, a deeper bench, and some help on defense. The ways that the Warriors have won their championships is with bigs and a deep bench. They will be back!
This is true. They lost a lot of great bench players and replaced them with a lot of young players. It was obvious when they had to go back for Gary Payton. One would have expected Kuminga, Moody, and Poole to take a bigger step forward this year, but that didn't happen.
@slimdude4450 it would have been MAJOR if they signed a proper big. Their only problem this season was not having someone in the paint for defense and rebounding, Looney was overworked. They were getting bullied by other teams with bigs. It was very surprising they didn't sign a big after trading Wiseman.
Wow...SAS really understands how vital it is that ALL substantive elements of a topic are injected into narratives... ...like, for instance, how someone may happen to pronounce "sources." [Initially, I was curious and wanted to experience the amount of time and energy the panel deliberated on that KEY aspect of the 2023 playoff series saga...but reconsidered and fast forwarded to where I HOPED the discussion would pick up and actually dovetail into remembering to explore what presumably is the salient topic at hand. All I can say...it necessitated resetting to a time mark considerably further into the "discussion" than I would believe ordinately appropriate.]
To me I don't believe the Warriors dynasty is over if they could add an elite true center, I believe that's the position they really need to upgrade. There is no way the Warriors could win a championship as currently constructed. Thompson is not what he use to be and he will not get back to that I feel, he's a good role player at best now. Poole is still very young and developing but he has to be so much better because a lot is expected from him now and going forward.
@@RF-dw8ms So in your opinion you believe they should they should just run it back, I could totally buy that even though that's not what I was thinking at all.
@@RF-dw8ms Because they did win the championship last year but Poole and Klay have to be a lot better than they where this postseason in order to win another championship.
The only reason the Lakers wanted the warriors is bc they were worn out going 7gms with the young kings squad the lakers had plenty of rest so it’s not surprising that they clearly were ready & waiting to meet them.
It’s been 2 days and Stephen A hasn’t tweeted a Single thing about the Lakers and GS series conclusion. If Lakers and Lebron lost there would have been 10 in 1hr…
We saw what playing full 7 games + no break + back to Series 2 vs Lakers (rested) with an aging "core". They need younger talent on bench who can hold the score or even improve. Many of them were MIA all season - road games, etc.
@taliyahcurry6425 the only time the Warriors were unbeatable was with KD. Again, just because they won two championships without him in 6 years doesn't mean they were a dynasty. The first championship they won due to injuries. They weren't going to beat a healthy Cavs team. Last year they had the easiest path to the Finals in modern history and needed an absolute choke job from the Celtics.
@@SPRVLN27 I disagree. Once we got through the west everyone said we couldn’t beat the Celtics. We did just that. Even when they were up during the series. Them choking as absolutely NOTHING to do w/the Warriors. KD didn’t even make it pass the second round twice since he left the Warriors but yet we don’t hear the same tune😭.
@taliyahcurry6425 I agree, beating the Celtics was legit. But the path they took to the Finals was a cakewalk. A Nuggets team decimated by injuries, Grizzlies with a hurt Ja, and the Dallas Lukas. Meanwhile Boston had two very tough series against the Bucks and the Heat. I'm not a KD fan either. But again, without KD on the Warriors, Lebron would have two more rings right now.
Perk predicted GS to lose to SAC, to not make the playoffs, and to lose last year to Memphis, Dallas and Boston, so even a broken clock is right twice a day
They were also younger in 2019 and were a better team the team now couldn't win on the road and the 19-0 western conference record has been broken western conference teams aren't scared of them no more
There's no doubt that Steph, Klay, Draymond, Andre (many people forget about him, huh?) and Steve can win it all together, but they just faced the franchise which has a record on winning the most amount of championships in History! Winning Culture belongs to this team through different generations of Hall Of Fame players!
Also liked what Stephen A. brought up. We talk alot about the injuries that happened in the first 3 NBA championships for the Warriors. But we never talk about it for other teams. Lakers went up against an injured Ja Morant and Grizzlies team with no inside presence in Steven Adams and Clark. Jared Jackson Jr, even though he is a great defender, was the only look that AD had. For a guy like AD, you have to give him multiple defensive looks. Plus it gives JJ jr time to recover and rest from guarding AD
Warriors were mostly healthy except por Wiggins at the end…Lakers had Lebron with a sprained ankle and AD left with the head hit…better team won…teams were mostly healthy no excuses
I’m so done with this. There has been so much disrespect towards the warriors and hipocracy between them and the lakers. Steph has been told he cant do this without kd. All of them said that. Lebron gets credit for winning in 2016 despite half of the players including Steph curry getting hurt but playing through it. But people dont wanna validate 2015 because Kyrie and Kevin love got hurt. Also can we mention the fact that Espn didnt even give the warriors a chance to win it all last year. Remember 70 percent chance for boston and 14 for golden state. Lebron has not been disrespected like Steph has. All of yall just stop.
Utu don’t smoke crack before commenting, you have an articulate well versed individual, vs mvperkins who said the whole league that’s primarily black is racist lol
Talking about Ja was injured so was AD in the same game! They had a 3-1 lead on Memphis & 100% healthy Golden state. LA is talented so they need their props period
Perk answered his own question... Meyers was a big time agent before becoming the GM. He has lots of business opportunities open to him that he might want to explore. It's as simple as that.

We really could be seeing the last chapter of this dynasty. Steph Curry is 35, Klay Thompson is 33, Draymond Green is 33. Klay is set to be a free agent next summer. Draymond has a chance to opt out of his contract this summer. Steve Kerr has two years left on his contract. Bob Myers could be on his way out.

Everyone gets their day. The dynasty was over when KD left, the dynasty was over when Klay got hurt, the dynasty was over when they didn't trade their young pieces, and the dynasty was over when they had a 20% chance to beat the Celtics. As long as 30 is there, the dynasty is alive.
Edit: Also props to Darvin Ham for a great series. Many lesser coaches would have folded under all the adjustments going back and forth each game (significantly more than any other series) but he was able to trade blows as a rookie head coach. Very impressive.
Bingo!
Same guy said Curry was gonna replace Lebron in Mount Rushmore‼️‼️‼️ 😗😗😗
There's a big reason for Klay to take a pay cut, he got paid 30 million a year for two years when injured. I know it's unfair to say it but if he thinks about it, he is the only one who hasn't taken a pay cut for that squad. Green's current contract is a pay cut. Steph's first extension had him at 10 million a year. Klay got the max available in both his extensions. And in one he just got paid to rehab for half of it

Lakers are like a smash mouth football team who runs the ball and plays D…very difficult to beat, especially once they have the lead. They can keep you at bay with LBJ and AD who can gouge you for the deflating 4-5 yard runs by getting easy looks at the rim, they get to the FT line, play D, rinse and repeat. Been the best team in the NBA for months folks been sleep.
i've been surprised about how good they've become on the defensive end. I think they now have a legit chance to win it all if the defensive presence continues.
@@jicalzad Not surprised. Especially when LBJ locks in. The addition of Vando was also big. They did the exact same thing in the Bubble.
This is a great analogy!
Exactly what I've been saying as well, when they made those trades, they fixed their depth holes with jumpshooters who can make shots consistently, and it's not like they have 1 or 2 guys that can do it, it's 4-5 guys who can go off for 20 in any game, Pelinka has done a masterful job fixing this team at the trade deadline. And you have to give Ham credit for the coaching adjustments he made.

I like how when the Warriors win the games they all praise all the shooting, defense and adjustments the Warriors did. But when the Lakers win they always just say that the warriors just having off games, discrediting that the lakers affected the Warrior’s mental and physical state with their defense, energy and adjustments. When will they accept that the Lakers are just better.
Thank you SA… It’s hard to repeat….
Klay deserves respect. The fact that they paid a rookie a max contract before him I don’t blame him for performing the way he did, for the lack of commitment and motivation for playing his absolute best.
People still sleep on the Lakers. Not only have they been the best team for months, they’re also tested. To go from last to this takes a lot of grit and means they’ve built a lot of team chemistry. This is juxtaposed to a team like PHX who just thought they could get through without being battle tested. Like I said vs Ws, Lakers in 5-6 and they go all the way.
Nobody talks about them being battle tested. They went through the DPOY and Ja and the reigning champs. All without home court advantage
They are. I always said that Westbrook doesnt fit because he doesnt play defense or is a jump shooter. Good fit on other systems, but not on a team with AD and Lebron. Always said give the Lakers a motivated Anthony Davis and a bunch of roleplayers who can make jump shots and they'd be back to being an elite team. It's easy to dismiss the Warriors but I remember the Warriors even though they swept them having trouble with maintaining Davis singlehandedly when he was with New Orleans.. and Lebron when he was carrying Cleveland. This is no accident that you combine the two together, the Warriors will have trouble, except the past two years AD and Lebron didnt have roleplayers who can make consistent jump shooters and played decent defense. It helps that Ham preaches that. You can tell how the Bucks and Warriors fell off when their assistant coaches left to coach elsewhere.
@@asare240 Not only that, they had to LOCK IN to get into the play-in and then win the play-in.
I feel like also alot of people seem to forget this, even though he is 38, does everyone realize who is the leader for this team. There isn't a better player to have as your leader to guide a bunch of youngsters to a finals, who has been in every situation possible in the playoffs. The team understands that lebron is the leader and they respect him, their togtherness I feel like is an under-rated aspect of why they have been the best team since the trade deadline. It's extremely difficult to beat a team that is tight with one another.
@@TheHomercles Yep. And people are looking at the Ws like ALL OF A SUDDEN....they're just bad. No. The Lakers are just that good. Besides the Lakers, I wouldn't pick any of the teams left over the GSW.
Warriors are in a tough position because of Klay and Draymonds contract situation. Those two have been as loyal as loyal can be deserve to be rewarded for it but at the same time if you reward their loyalty then you put yourself in the same position that you're in now.

Yep. I think people are just in denial and are not understanding how good the Lakers are. I've watched just about every game of the Lakers this year and they have been the best team since the trades by a mile. Look at the teams that are left and besides the Lakers, who would you pick to beat GSW? Definitely not MIA. GSW have a clear psychological edge over BOS and DEN doesn't have the battle tested grit of GSW. Lakers are just that good. True old school basketball by getting high % 2s, forcing contact and getting into the bonus, and focus on defense.
@@Messigoat1033 Did steph ever back down from guarding 6'8 Bron in any playoff series?

This trade would probably win them the 2024 championship
There’s a reason you’re not a gm bro you’d be gone within a week 😂😂😂😂
Molly and Stephen A. be low key flirting
Warriors have 2, maybe 3 more years of being relevant. Klay is now really a 3rd or 4th option so they need to find a solid 2nd behind Curry since Poole is a dud and should be traded. Poole is a prime example of giving someone too much money. The Warriors have no rim defense or anyone who can guard a big like AD, Jokic, etc. However, with that being said everyone always said how Tom Brady and the Patriots dynasty was over and then they kept winning super bowls. It is hard to count out a team with Kerr and Curry.
Naw. Klay is solid. Y'all just overreact to everything and aren't realizing the Lakers are just THAT good. Ask yourself, out of the teams let, who would you pick over the GSW? Not MIA. BOS is psychologically screwed by GSW and DEN doesn't have the battle tested grit of GSW. My point is twofold. 1. GSW aren't that bad 2. Lakers are just that good.
@@haywood0457 I've also been saying how good the Lakers are. It appeared like Klay has lost a step or two in his game. I also don't believe the dynasty is over yet, but GS needs to make some serious improvements in order to stay relevant in a difficult West.
To be honest, I've never seen the Warriors look as bad as they did this post season, it was as if they were just a shell of what they used to be.
They literally got dragged to a game 7 in the first round by the Kings and were legit struggling, that to me was a tell sign that their empire has fallen but then to stand up against this particular current Lakers roster was an uphill battle all in itself.
The warriors are used to only playing against LeBron. That’s why he won with kyrie. When LeBron has an actual team 😊he doesn’t have to carry, it’s extremely difficult to win.
Klays game is one dimensional and I just think the rest of the league has caught up to them. Still great players but they need an inside threat, a big that can take pressure away from the 3 line
Out of all the teams left, besides the Lakers, who would you pick over GSW? Definitely not MIA. BOS is psychologically F'd by GSW, and DEN doesn't have the grit of the GSW. What I'm saying is this: *GSW is not as bad as some people are saying now...THE LAKERS ARE JUST THAT GOOD.* I told everyone Lakers in 5-6 vs GS and its the same vs DEN and whoever in the East. Bully ball and defense travels well.
How is Boston fucked by golden state? What grit did gsw show you vs the Lakers?
Last year in the Finals, the way they played vs GS this season. As far as DEN, bruh, what core in the NBA has won 4 rings? You're asking a silly question and it highlights my comment in that people aren't realizing the Lakers are just good.
No splash brothers. Just steph
Klay needs to know when he's not shooting well, to stop.. that's his problem. When he's cold.. he stays cold. Thats the difference between him and Curry.
@@TheHomercles he needs to stop attempting 3 pt shots and get inside, but he cant get inside cuz of lebron and AD looool
Bron has the warriors figured out? Literally took klays worst playoff series ever, a Kevon looney sickness which restricted his minutes so they had to play small, and a nonexistent Jordan Poole. The two shooters had zero to do with bron, they just couldn’t put the ball in the hoop. Wide open misses. Let’s not forget that he has a fellow top five player on his team when healthy in AD. I had the dubs winning this series cuz I thought klay would show up big and kevon looney could bang with AD leaving dray on bron which would’ve been the dubs ideal matchup but looney got sick.
The Warriors dynasty is still intact. All the warriors need is some depth, a deeper bench, and some help on defense. The ways that the Warriors have won their championships is with bigs and a deep bench. They will be back!
warriors dynasty huh lol
This is true. They lost a lot of great bench players and replaced them with a lot of young players. It was obvious when they had to go back for Gary Payton. One would have expected Kuminga, Moody, and Poole to take a bigger step forward this year, but that didn't happen.
@@walea.4702 Right. And they didn't make any moves during the trade deadline which came back to bite them in the playoffs.
@@RedWarrior081 Yeah Mr Miagi. 🍜
@slimdude4450 it would have been MAJOR if they signed a proper big. Their only problem this season was not having someone in the paint for defense and rebounding, Looney was overworked. They were getting bullied by other teams with bigs. It was very surprising they didn't sign a big after trading Wiseman.
I like Stephen A. Smith answer “depends on who they get that’s exact”
Would steph be as effective without klay and Drayton or if streph was on another team
I think so .. prime example All Star Game Last year. He won MVP
Wow...SAS really understands how vital it is that ALL substantive elements of a topic are injected into narratives...
...like, for instance, how someone may happen to pronounce "sources."
[Initially, I was curious and wanted to experience the amount of time and energy the panel deliberated on that KEY aspect of the 2023 playoff series saga...but reconsidered and fast forwarded to where I HOPED the discussion would pick up and actually dovetail into remembering to explore what presumably is the salient topic at hand. All I can say...it necessitated resetting to a time mark considerably further into the "discussion" than I would believe ordinately appropriate.]
To me I don't believe the Warriors dynasty is over if they could add an elite true center, I believe that's the position they really need to upgrade. There is no way the Warriors could win a championship as currently constructed. Thompson is not what he use to be and he will not get back to that I feel, he's a good role player at best now. Poole is still very young and developing but he has to be so much better because a lot is expected from him now and going forward.

The only reason the Lakers wanted the warriors is bc they were worn out going 7gms with the young kings squad the lakers had plenty of rest so it’s not surprising that they clearly were ready & waiting to meet them.

Warriors dynasty started and ended when KD came and left. Without KD, the Warriors have two titles in 6 years. They're not a dynasty without KD.
Yet the Warriors won before & after KD. & KD hasn’t won since.
@taliyahcurry6425 the only time the Warriors were unbeatable was with KD. Again, just because they won two championships without him in 6 years doesn't mean they were a dynasty. The first championship they won due to injuries. They weren't going to beat a healthy Cavs team. Last year they had the easiest path to the Finals in modern history and needed an absolute choke job from the Celtics.
@@SPRVLN27 I disagree. Once we got through the west everyone said we couldn’t beat the Celtics. We did just that. Even when they were up during the series. Them choking as absolutely NOTHING to do w/the Warriors. KD didn’t even make it pass the second round twice since he left the Warriors but yet we don’t hear the same tune😭.
@taliyahcurry6425 I agree, beating the Celtics was legit. But the path they took to the Finals was a cakewalk. A Nuggets team decimated by injuries, Grizzlies with a hurt Ja, and the Dallas Lukas. Meanwhile Boston had two very tough series against the Bucks and the Heat. I'm not a KD fan either. But again, without KD on the Warriors, Lebron would have two more rings right now.

Lakers went up against an injured Ja Morant and Grizzlies team with no inside presence in Steven Adams and Clark. Jared Jackson Jr, even though he is a great defender, was the only look that AD had. For a guy like AD, you have to give him multiple defensive looks. Plus it gives JJ jr time to recover and rest from guarding AD

"Beverly Hills Cop Theme" was also played I believe twice in it including near the end when Sonny Vaccaro was ready to make a run. This isn't mentioned from ScreenRant.

Sonny Vaccaro : [to Michael Jordan] Forget about the shoes, forget about the money. You're going to make enough money, it's not going to matter. Money can buy you almost anything, it can't buy you immortality. That, you have to earn.
I'm going to look you in the eyes and I'm gonna tell you the future. You were cut from your high school basketball team. You willed your way to the NBA. You're gonna win championships. It's an American story, and that's why Americans are gonna love it.
People are going to build you up, and God are they going to, because when you're great and new, we love you. Man, we'll build you up into something that doesn't even exist. You're going to change the f**king world. But you know what? Once they've built you as high as they possibly can, they're gonna tear you back down - it's the most predictable pattern.
We build you into something that doesn't exist, and that means you have to try to be that thing all day, every day. That's how it works. And we do it again, and again, and again. And I'm going to tell you the truth.
You're going to be attacked, betrayed, exposed and humiliated. And you'd survive that. A lot of people can climb that mountain. It's the way down that breaks them, 'cause that's the moment when you are truly alone. And what would you do then? Can you summon the will to fight on, through all the pain, and rise again?
Who are you Michael? That will be the defining question of your life. And I think you already know the answer, and that's why we're all here. *A* *shoe* *is* *just* *a* *shoe* *until* *somebody* *steps* *into* *it.* *Then* *it* *has* *meaning.* The rest of us just want a chance to touch that greatness.
We need you in these shoes not so you have meaning in your life, but so that we have meaning in ours. Everyone at this table will be forgotten as soon as our time here is up - except for you. You're gonna be remembered forever, because some things are eternal. You're Michael Jordan, and your story is gonna make us want to fly... 🐐
You can’t compare someone to lebrons if you’re not going to criticize
PERK IS GREAT T.V.
Warriors need a big man in the center cause the big man is making a comeback again on every team right now
It’s over for now. They’ve gotta figure out what to do with Poole, Kuminga and Draymond. Klay has to figure out what to do as well.
Klay fr is past his prime they should trade him
I think people are not understanding how good the Lakers are. I've watched just about every game of the Lakers this year and they have been the best team since the trades by a mile. Look at the teams that are left and besides the Lakers, who would you pick to beat GSW? Definitely not MIA. GSW have a clear psychological edge over BOS and DEN doesn't have the battle tested grit of GSW. Lakers are just that good. True old school basketball by getting high % 2s, forcing contact and getting into the bonus, and focus on defense.
Kuminga isnt an issue. Depends on what Draymond and Klay wants. If Dray wants to opt out, then thats an issue. If Klay is not willing to take a pay cut, thats the other. Poole is basically on the trading block because when you lose your team and the fanbase, its tough to see him staying around.
