Scheduled Loss: Why Golden State Warriors Fight Brings Up BIG Question
The Golden State Warriors fell to the Miami Heat on Wednesday night, but without any of the stars it was a better showing than expected. Why the game showed us that the Warriors are all but set for a consolidation trade, bringing up the question, who? Chuck Walter breaks down all things Dubs.

These teams in the NBA are throwing games, load management. Essentially they are deciding what games they will deliberately lose and what games they will try to win. This shouldn’t be happening. Why don’t they just reduce the number of games they play. This is not good for fans.
Why Steve Kerr not playing Quincy Post,, he is the best big man they got,,
Why is Kuminga riding the pine?
💪
The rational thing is to get a young enough talent that can either be flipped for future assets when the rebuild begins, or keep around to pair along with whatever future #1 option may come our way, but also fills some of what the warriors need. They need a talented 2-way wing, with real gravity and shot creation ability.
JK+ Picks for Trey Murphy, makes the most sense. He's the ideal small forward to play alongside the starters or bench units.
They're not flipping Jimmy for Giannis(way too far fetched pipe dream). Draymond for AD also changes their identity way too much; they're not going to do anything that drastic.
$60 million per year, but unable to play two games in a row.
Santa Cruz Warriors just can’t win against the Miami Heat
The bench is filled with inconsistent, tiny, low IQ players and bad defenders. And Buddy is completely unwatchable. I get depressed when he is on the floor. We need a bench rebuild
This Schedule loss is weak ass generation thinking. This is what’s wrong with the game. Soft as butter!
Chuck the Host here to Boast the Most about Post
18:18 Chuck I think San Antonio is in Texas, isn't it?
Anthony Davis is younger than Butler and the Warriors training staff is perhaps better than what the Mavs and Lakers have?
Get Markannen and the Jazz coach and any Jazz players, JJ Reddick said they basically feel like they same system as the warriors.
33:25 agreed Houston high 3 pt % makes no sense 😂
Great coaches adjust to their roster. They make pieces fit. Kerr has shown an inability to do that. And he rewards bad play with more play time (see Podz and Buddy Hield).
Trade everyone on this team to get some Pix and dreams of seeing Spring sooner than 2035 if we are lucky 🍀.😅
Kerr is Obsessed with Podz , He need to Gone , There's Something Supicious why these Kinda of Players Are being brought in??!1
If 9 and 8 in the west is successful it’s going to be a very long seaso😂😂
Imagine you paid to see this game…
This is just idiocy to give up totally in a back-to-back game. These guys aren't playing 48 minutes almost ever. They're usually playing around 32 or so. Even with their age they should be able to play a half an hour on consecutive days. These giveaways are going to cost them in the playoffs
As much as it may suck as warriors been up and down. We about to feel real good and go streaking soon. Just get through November 500 or better and by the end the year it’s a very real chance we are top 3 or 4 in the west.
The coach doesn't play the right guys together an if he does he doesn't for long next if we gonna be cocky an load manage guys like we got very good bench players then we gonna lose alot of games so with that being said we gatta make some trades because how this team is designed we need very good players to compliment curry Jimmy not ok players very good ones
I scheduled loss. That’s ridiculous and is dishonest. I’ve never heard of such a thing in sports, losing deliberately.
Podz has the 3rd or 4th most minutes on the entire team and net rating is like 10th best.
Chuck I agree 38% from three feels high. Can’t remember more than one efficient night from him this year.
Last thing — Fitz said it best last night when he said the game felt like watching college ball. 😂
podz gets locked up alot
Steve Kerr is becoming dangerous with this quitter mentality starting to take hold on Warriors basketball. I mean this is the coach who threw in the white towel on a playoff game in the middle of the 3rd quarter. Madness.
Chuck – what can you do about these under wear ads??? Love you man but not that much.
Trade Kuminga to Sac – derosen? lavine (salary difficult) Sabonis?
Podz, Buddy and Steve Kerr all 3 is the problem. This season is a wrap if Kerr keeps playing Podz and Buddy.
I think they were desperate for someone on the bench to step up, only problem is that we have 0 prospects waiting on our bench to go off like every other team has. It's hard to watch this team, I love Pat Spencer but we know he shouldn't be a backup PG in the NBA
Moses Moody should've worked on learning how to dribble and creating his own shot. Our team is players who just want to be role players😂
