Just didn't work out. So they dealt him for a clearly declining Paul to essentially double down on the Klay/Steph window and hope they can grab another title or two with the old formula. I don't think it'll be enough. I don't even see them as a WCF team. We shall see. |

Hopefully Moody and Kuminga continue to improve. I like CP3 having limited minutes and running the 2nd team and hopefully that will keep him healthy all season long. For them to get to the WCF they will need to stay relatively healthy and one of the other teams will have to have injuries. That is possible as I don't see AD and Lebron making it through another season and everyone knows Kawhi\PG3 can't ever stay healthy. KD either of late. |

I mean that's a smart front office. They had to have a plan on what a team with Wiseman/Steph would look like. And then they pulled the chute on it SO fast. And really got nothing in return. I guess the easiest answer is 'scouting miss; saw it early and moved on before it got any worse...' which is pretty damn brutal in its own right. The 2020 draft wasn't exceptional by any stretch of the imagination but it would've seemed that maybe LaMelo was a natural fit to sort of transition away from Steph as the lead ball-handler. Haliburton wasn't a realistic possibility at 2nd overall but man hindsight says you'd LOVE to have him there. I guess the real 'miss' would be Okongwu who would've probably fit what they do a little better as something of an energy guy and floor runner who could have replaced Draymond. Maybe it's just a situation where the Warriors didn't see anyone in the draft as a genuine standout so they just took the guy with the highest ceiling... |
