So we finish like the Suns or Brooklyn of years ago ? The league is getting younger, longer and more athletic. We better follow that trend and develop the youth or trade for multiple younger talents instead of putting all our hope on one special player
With Steph? WTF? You kick out Steph or wait for his retirement for that
Look at the suns and learn
@@hpulker You are not watching the Suns, Lakers and Clippers holding on proven and old stars flaming all around? What you want is a good mix of experience and youth energy. You keep Curry+Dray and you add J Allen, Bruce Brown, JK, Moody, Podz, Garuba. Tha is 1000 time better than Curry, Lebron, Dray, KD, Klay + 2 other old veterans
@@myyololandthis is good ngl adding J Allen, Bruce, N maybe someone like Kelly oubre(which is maybe not possible) then we will have a squad and garuba is garbage u don’t want that 😂
@@Axell2x. He is better than Ty Jerome or Anthony Lamb or Saric
Some, basically what you're sayin is, lets solve Suns' problem while getting ourselves into the same thing? right?
Wouldn’t take that much. It’s not multiple 1sts. It’s Wiggins, JK, GP2, Looney and a 2027 1st rounder.
This sounds like a good team of names but a horrible team in the context of where the league is at this moment
Best shot at what exactly?
Stop with the we need a big name player - the Warriors need size defence and depth. What Warriors need to prove is that their core players with a strong enough supporting cast can get the job done. The Warriors dont need to be the second Lakers that buys big name players to build their team.
Stop the "Lebum to the Bay" narrative...... 😑😑😑
Can't trade with Danny Ainge...
So you want warriors to be screwed? For an old KD?! Hell no do not trade warriors assets and draft for that
Totally worth it BECAUSE the timeline for Steph/dray/Klay is much smaller than Brooklyn or Phoenix
Man i say a wiggins and draft picks is all. Were talking about a old kd who hasnt won anything since he left gs.
We still have to get a better center. Trayce would be a great back up and also we would need another SG. Starting Moody isn’t the answer in my opinion.
Warriors can have Steph Curry, Lebron James &/Or Kevin Durant, Joel Embiid, Giannis Antetokounmpo. 3 Superstars in Golden State this Summer but wouldn't have a bench to give production for next season. Remember Golden State's 2018 - 2019 Roster, they relied to much on the Starting 5 and bench rarely gave any production in the playoffs outside of Andre Igoudala.
Warriors get KD, Embiid or Giannis to add with Steph & Lebron and they would have the Best Starting Five in the league but one of the worse bench in the league. Warriors would need to trade away their bench just to get KD, Embiid or Giannis in Golden State for next season.
These dudes are desperate for LeBron as Dubs fans we don't want him
Can you blame them? They’ are old & they don’t wanna wait around for the warriors to be good again.
Why get a non-winner who’s been swept back to back season.. weird..
The league has so many other better options.. KD is just another ISO player.. GS plays team ball..
It worked 2016-2019
What are the better options? What team is willing to just give us their young and budding stars? Everyone shits on the old guys but never explains HOW we get the young guys that move the needle
@@Newportnews98 after what happened with Dray and how he left, you seriously think it’s gonna be the same?
Just come crawling back after you’ve failed miserably at other teams (swept twice)..
sure..
KD is NOT a humble guy, he’s got a lot of pride..
@@sblover12 Siakam, Markkenan, Jarrett Allen, Divencenzo.. it’s doesn’t have to be the super young guys, experienced around 30yo would do it. Some one to replace Jordan Poole and Wiggins position is good enough..
No chance of Lebron, but slimmer of chance for KD. Lebron has full family and business in LA. No chance of him leaving LA. KD is a roamer.
KD+Grayson Allen for Klay+Wiggins+GP2+whoever is needed (but much prefer no draft picks). Agree with the speaker that this is their best chance, maybe only chance next year. If W has Steph+DG+KD with one more shooter, they have a chance. Right now, W is not totally screwed, but Suns looks like is.
Ya right....get a $50 million old player for the warrior's young core.
It will be the same tragic trade that The Sun's made. Forget it.
Yes, cause the Warriors need to get even OLDER, SLOWER and have another player that can’t defend the perimeter. 🤦🏻♂️.
Y’all keep looking in the past when we need to look to the future.
Kd is staying with the suns.
Time has changed what has been forgotten every chip has been won not with 3-4 stars But with a surrounding roster strength by number. Even 10 years back the core, Durant players get hurt today that still happens and they are much older where game management is in play when it happens who is going to fill in the lineup on the bench Gleague? Suns should be a prime example they unloaded a good roster for two players.
They got KD the first time didnt give up anything the core salaries werent that high today the it might be impossible without unloading the rest of roster. Even with Klay,KD, Curry, Green are they going to ride thesebold houses until they drop get a nice seeding then got nothing left!
You still got the toughest bracket with Denver, Wolves, OKC, nice thought but even with KD or James they just above 50/50 chance.
KD is going back to OKC.... take it to the bank.
Only if they win the NBA Championship this year. That's how he rolls
If that happens the Phoenix Suns will want Chet Holmgren, Luguentz Dort and 2 Future 1st Round draft picks for KD back to the Thunder. Why would the Thunder trade a 21 year old (Chet) for a 35 year old Kevin Durant who will be retiring within the next 2 -3 seasons or so.
It might be but KD will never do it.
The Warriors should go through the pain of letting this dynasty and and resetting. Bringing the band back together won’t return the title to San Francisco/Oakland.
Steph Curry is not the player he used to be. Klay Thompson is nowhere near the player he used to be. Draymond Green is nowhere near the player he used to be. Kevin Durant is not the player he used to be.
Steve Kerr isn’t the coach we thought he was.
Kevin Durant should only come back to the Golden State Warriors when his retirement happens as well as come back when they add a statue of him
Anyone paying $50 million for Lebron is outta of their minds.
It's not quite worth it. Trade draymond and wiggs though keep klay
Please god no more KD
Hard pass. He isn’t the same player and it would take too much to get him
Warriors getting older...they are cooked
how do these guys have a job? feeding off of member berries. go young not old has beens
KD is cursed. No thx.
😂
Let go of Klay and Chris Paul. & Looney, sheds $75 mil Sign Paul George outright to 50/year that sheds 25 mil. In luxury savings.
Paul George is old no thanks
