The Golden State Warriors Might Be Back But there’s ONE problem

The Warriors traded for Jimmy Butler, however, if they get what they pay for, Where does that put Jonathan Kuminga?

  1. lol the warriors are not back.. Green is still a starter and on the team so the “PROBLEM” still exists!

  2. Still drinking that polluted water thinking that it's pure. poddy 🚽 is NOT a starter over Moses. It's obvious to Me that kerr/warriors💩 will Never allow Jonathan to reach His Potential! their plot is to Sabotage His career because they want Him to be a 'toby' but He continues to be Kunta Kinte!!! P.S. ÷/- is B.S.‼️

  3. 1. Kuminga couldnt playmake like butler
    2. Kuminga has a tendency to not survey the floor and just attack with no direction or plan in mind(hes still young but like yea)
    3. Butler may not be as athletic but in defense, he doesnt have lapses unlike mr kumbucket
    4. Kuminga just hasnt shown enough to be offered the max he wants,

  4. One last push for a ring before curry retired. Now, can they beat the Lakers or weak Foxless Kings.

  5. How would a sign and trade save the Warriors money? Any trade has to match salaries? Are you saying the Warriors would trade JK for scrubs, whom they would then buy out to avoid a luxury tax?

  6. "Interesting" organization. = "stupid" organiztion. High turnovers, worst layups, horrible free throws, lost line ups, too many under 6'6, only one good guy over 6'6 and a coach that says "free throws are not an issue" and wants to shoot 50 plus 3s a game. WTF ? Get rid of kerr and dray, things get better immediately. Wouldve been a different attitude if they kept the poole party and dropped Dray.

  7. Jk is still young and learning the ropes. He lacks control of the ball and finess to finish around the rim, but He'll get there 🙋🏽

  8. Starters Curry, Hield, Butler, moody, green

    Off thr bench GPII, Podz, kuminga, TJD/Looney, Post.

    I like small ball and then switch to two bigs off the bench

  9. Dont sleep on buddy, these last two games his 3 point attempts have gone down. He is putting more focus on defense and hitting shots when open.

  10. JK has no future in GS, unless Green retires. If that happens, GSW will look for a replacement. JK should look to playing elsewhere.

  11. For all of those so called basketball fans who think that Jimmy Buckets is not worth the bag he got, here’s a little reminder of who he is. * 6x NBA All-Star
    * NBA Most Improved Player (2015)
    * NBA steals leader (2021)
    * All-NBA Second Team
    * 4x All-NBA Third Team
    * 5x NBA All-Defensive Second Team
    * Won an Olympic gold medal in 2016
    * Eastern Conference Finals MVP (2023)
    * Only missed the playoffs once in his 14 year career
    * Future HOF’er in my opinion
    This the best player Curry has gotten since the dynasty. Yes he’s 35, but now a days it’s the new 30. I’m a heat fan and I’ll be rooting for GSW until Himmy retires

  12. People put there own definitions on situations when they dont know what the hell there talking about. Kuminga 6'7 and Butler 6'7 who cant shoot 3s so they are the same. The phuck hook don phonics pre k reasoning is that?

  13. Swish the only thing we missing is a big man and we're on our way, I'm not down with the Kuminga conversation. I don't know why you have this love affair with that dude?

  14. Kuminga really not fit on their system. He's a good scorer for sure but as long as Steph is around, the system revolves around Steph's movement.

  15. I disagree starting podz, I think he's more effective when he's with butler when steph is resting

  16. No wiggins so put in jk. Curry, butler, jk, green, looney. Solid vets make it easier for kuminga to get into a flow. Thats a solid playoff lineup

  17. I think GSW retain JK. That was actually the steal of the JB trade – not having to give up JK or Podz. We’ll have to see how the finances align but I definitely think it’s far from probable that he is gone. I do think GSW do everything they can to keep him.

    DG has two huge contributions – one he’s a def animal, a def savant, and two he hits SC with passes just how & when SC likes it (except when he’s turning the ball over with a bad pass). Point being don’t mind DG in a starting line up with SC.

    The other issue is the balance between having too many offensive options & too few offensive options. Too few & too SC dependent then SC is double & tripled team often & without consequences. So another star is needed to keep the defense honest, and most honest defenses are no match for the skills of SC or JB. However, if you go too far in the direction of multiple, equal offensive options then players loose track of the game plan, lose focus, and the key players don’t get enough touches & shots, etc… It’s that balance between no choice, which clearly sucks, and too many choices, which often confuses & overwhelms the human brain. Need multiple focused good options. When DG is on the court there is focused – kick ass on def & set up SC & JB for their offensive genius plus do a few offensive moves to help keep the defense honest.

    The other issue is the non SC minutes. ALWAYS need one or more of these three players on the court – SC, JB, or JK. Out of those 3 who’s going to come off the bench? Definitely not SC or JB! JK clearly can be a starter but the GSW personnel almost make it necessary for him to come off the bench.

    I like SC, JB, DG, QP, and Podz as the starting 5. I like JK, BH, Moody, TJD, and Looney as the five regulars off the bench with GPII & Gui Santos having select, special usage (matchups, energy spark, def, etc…) Still have 12 solid players, but SC, JB, & JK need to play 30+ minutes each every game regardless of who starts.

  18. The only way JK gets a max contractor if he leads us to the finals and is the finals MVP.
    He should shine a short-term deal with us for the next two years that’s when Butler Curry and Draymond’s contract all expire. That way we could pay him what he actually deserves if he lives up to the hype.

  19. Where do you rank JK in the 2021 NBA draft class?

    Cade Cunningham

    Alperen Sengun

    Evan Mobley

    Jalen Green

    Scottie Barnes

    Franz Wagner

    Cam Thomas

    Jonathan Kuminga

    Jalen Suggs

    Josh Giddey

  20. We have a Chef and a Butler. Now what we need is a Gardner or a Driver. The Pool-boy already left.

  21. Gsw is so good at developing fresh talent players and then watch them hit the door in to the sun set 😅 speaking the future of jK leaving is a crazy take , but it is likely to happen but if so hope jk makes a return

  22. I'm cautiously optimistic about Butler. The 2 games he's played he's been great, but we need to see games against some of the stronger teams to see how things shape up. Also there's always potential for injury to derail the season. Especially with his style of playing always banging bodies in the paint. If he could safely get reconditioned by the playoffs as he claimed he's not in game shape right now, that'd be amazing.
