[NBC Sports Bay Area] Report: Warriors now more willing to discuss trade of young core

lol trade low scenario. Good ol warriors
Just trade all of them. Not a hate post or anything, I’m at the point of just being tired of all the blame game.
If the old guys including the coach want to go at it without any shackles then so be it. After refusing to adapt the system after all these years, they better show up after all the young guys are gone and no more excuses.
Good luck to them wherever they end up.
lol. The only one that currently has value is JK.
I think we need to stop looking at them as a young “core”. None of these guys are players you could build a team around.
Maybe it is too late. Maybe the return just is not good enough to go anywhere. But last night was a fundamental demonstration of the failure of the two timelines. Games like *that* were what all this was supposed to be about. When the dynastic core has the off-days that come with being old, the new blood was supposed to be there, ready to handle the baton.
Who was the only one to respond to Steph’s and Dray’s SOS? Andrew Wiggins, who is a few weeks away from turning 30.
And since people will reply with stuff like “Kerr failed the young players and should have played them more”, “If only we had drafted this guy instead of that”: it is irrelevant who is at fault.
At this point, we don’t need to make a major move not just for the sake of “getting Steph number 5”, but also for the very future we are selling. An understanding by the Warriors that there is no way to avoid the ugly post-Steph rebuild that would be demonstrated by that move is a source of hope. An org that is grounded in reality will rebuild better than one who is living in dream world, no matter where they start from.
lol you don’t say. What changed?
Bet teams are super excited to bid on a non-shooting wing, poor man’s Andrew Nembhard and whatever Moses Moody is.
Just like Wiseman … waited too long. Their value has cratered.
In typical Dubs fashion they only sell pennies on the dollar. Should have traded JK in the offseason when it was obviously clear there wasn’t a realistic path for him to start. This organization is a joke without Steph.
3 years too late 🙁
Trade Draymond with them and really embrace a new look warriors. Copy the Celtics and play 5 shooters at a time.
The era of the young guys and Draymond is over
JK will never be a star. A SF who can’t shoot the 3 will never be a player you can build a contender around
Similarly Draymonds days of being worth the negative on offense are done. Unless you get Myles Turner, he is unplayable offensively
Front office genuinely isn’t good like people hype them up to be. Ever since 2019 something changed
Oh rly? 😂 it’s almost like we got annihilated yday
Way to go Lacob. Held onto them way too long. And their value has never been lower.
What kind of incompetence is taking place with management
What a joke
Joe is beyond lost . Would make a terrible stock markettrader to.
It’s too late. Light-Years Lacob already blew it.
Too little too late from Steph perspective.
This team for sure a bottom feeder once Steph leaves and all they got is Podz, Kuminga, and Moody. Trade em all for whatever role players with some basketball IQ and go all in for Steph. No guarantees that it’ll make a difference but it’s the only way this team has a remote chance of sniffing/winning another title
Trade the young core or old core? I mean…
lol, and this past summer the Front Office was viewing Podz as an untouchable asset
I’ve been saying this and getting downvoted for it.
Call me crazy but any redditor calling for steph to be traded in r/warriors should be instantly banned from this sub.
This team really sucks at drafting
They need someone in the paint. At this point, they cannot defend the rim. If Wiggins and shröder are not scoring 18 a game, Curry is cooked (pun) Damn, I miss Bogut.
Maybe we are ready to get Butler now 👀
No totally. Wait until their values are as low as possible.
I love Kuminga and Moody, but we should have traded the picks before that draft. Wiseman was just unfortunate and I don’t hold that pick against the FO. But it’s clear the 2 timeline plan has failed and now it might be too late.
I feel like the Warriors have to sack this season or do one small trade. I think they need to pay JK $35mil next season, pair him with Moody’s contract, and then all the firsts to get the next star. I don’t see another path towards contention.
If Kerr doesn’t want to teach or give the young guys a chance than why pick Wiseman at #2? we should’ve been trading these assets for vets years ago.
Send em all off. Duds, the lot of em. Enough already.
Fucking finally. How many times do you need to see them crash and burn
All of those 4 guys together make $18.8M. Nobody we get for that will move the needle.
Add Wiggs, now maybe we’re there. But that’s 5 guys who are averaging 111 MPG combined. That’s almost half our team we’ve traded away, and we somehow have to fill 4 empty roster slots in addition to whatever superstar we traded for.
As long as Steph + Draymond cost $80M and aren’t giving $80M worth of performance on regular basis, we are seriously constrained on building a contender, and we will be for two more seasons after this one. I don’t begrudge them the money — they have more than earned it — but facts are facts.
Our young players have value, but not superstar value, and their salaries provide very limited matching. We can trade Picks, but the better we make our team, the less valuable our Picks will be for the next few years, so we don’t have quite the value in Draft assets one might think.
Lauri was right there now we’ll end up with someone like DFS🤣🤣🤣
The biggest mistake has been trying to build a core around Steph, Draymond, and Klay through the goddamn draft. Our picks needed to be the first things to go to get these guys help.
Wiseman, kuminga, Moody have provided marginal help but acquiring Wiggins (a veteran who had already established himself in the league) is the move that saved our asses in 2022.
It’s mostly asinine that this FO has been so adamant to hold onto young players and picks as “future assets” instead of trying to make the team better immediately.
Geez.
It’s going to be BAD when Steph retires, isn’t it
The 90s-2000s all over again
Glad that last game showed them that we have absolutely reached the end of the road for the rebuild + win a chip clownfest. Literally a crossroad decision coming up.
