Who’s to blame for Warriors disappointing season?
Jason discusses the Golden State Warriors disappointing season and who’s to blame for it between Jonathan Kuminga, Steve Kerr, Mike Dunleavy / the front office, Draymond Green, or Jimmy Butler, and why it’s obviously not Steph Curry.

Fire Kerr. Fire Hield, trade Kuminga, pods, moody and your problems will be solved, also play Santos more
You’re obviously not watching any warriors games Jason, Steve Kerr does random substitutions and yanks people out left and right, doesn’t let anyone establish rhythm, plays the worst lineups at the worst time, he’s caused 90% of warriors losses this season single-handedly. My grandma will be able to pick up on it if she watched warriors games and she knows nothing about basketball.
Kerrrrrr
It was the year after we won that last championship. We were banking on wiseman and Poole. We bet the future on them and lost
I’m starting to think the entire NBA has to follow a script written by AI, the script adapts according to people betting and how well teams are doing, and no one in the mainstream media is allowed to question it or go against it, and it’s all predetermined and staged.
Steph. He’s addicted the spotlight and not nearly good enough as a night-in, night out superstar for the last 3 years. He’s a brilliant closer that wants to be treated like a perennial MVP. That’s where every piece of the Kuminga value issue starts.
Steve Kerr.
Buddy Hield was supposed to be a younger Klay and it's the name we've heard for years Lebron needed to get a title. He ain't Klay but you gave Klay to get him and replace him and Kumminga then with Malik Monk? It makes no sense.
Kerr is the problem. He lost Durant, Klay.
JOE LACOB loving JK too much caused all of this nonsense
Green and Kerr!!!
Green takes the ball away from Butler and hogging the ball and making telegraphic passes. Opponents Only play him for the passes. That's SINGLE biggest reason for GS mediocre record.
It's not so much about kuminga, podz or hield.
They got 2 road games winning steak. As soon as Green came back, they lost 3 straight.
He got tossed from Suns and Magic game, and No surprise the team wins,
Draymond
Horrible drafts: Wiseman, Kuminga, Moody. Could have EASILY have been Melo, Franz Wagner, and Algerian Sengun/Jalen/Murphy III.
It's all Kuminga's fault!
Obviously.
😂😂😂
"Ended?" We're not even at the trade deadline. Season doesn't even start until then. All of this is pretty much preseason.
Podcasters who complain about the roster that's learning how to win together are to blame.
Its never curry fault huh. All of you blame kd or lebron if thinks its wrong steph get a pass everytime
Everyone including Steph deserves their piece of the blame pie and that goes for many fans too who just have rose tinted glasses or just delusional expectations.
The chip in 2022 really skews a lot of people's perspectives on this team. No one including everyone on the team honestly expected them to win. They were just talented enough and healthy enough at the right time of the season and just got through a post season run against injured/equally flawed teams. Of course it was immensely satisfying for the team and for many of it's fans but it really can be viewed now for the outlier that it was. They have been a bad to mediocre .500 team ever since things really fell apart in 2019.
You're completely wrong brah. They should have fired Kerr 3 yrs ago.
Joe & Kirk Lacob's decisions. Lacobs, front office need to sit down with coaching staff and Myers as consultant to brainstorm. They need to get rid of Butler, JK & maybe Podz for more consistently accurate shooting, consistent production, consistent playmaking, consistent defense.
Bad picks by Bob Myers
Kerr.
I'm going to say the refs. Honestly, this team would have about 5 more wins if it wasn't for the refs. Everyone knows this team is making a trade. Everyone is just mad that the W-L is closer to .500 than .600
Kerr no.1 for not putting proper line ups on the floor, despite having the pieces needed to win or even just to compete and also due to his love affair with pods and buddy. Management no. 2 for building a , ass roster full of guards and not enough bigs. Steph is no.3 He does not challenge Kerr and his loyalty to the core is detrimental to the team. He don't stand up to Dray and does not challenge Kerr to do better. That's not the kind of leadership this team needs now to win. No.4 assistant coaches, for having no balls to call Kerr out for his stupid line ups and decisions.
Lacob once said he was extremely fortunate to have both Warriors of the present & Warriors of the future (two timeline of veteran stars and young stars at the same time) after they had won in 2019. And nope, in hindsight, having "two timeline" is the worse "advantage" that one team can have.
Steve Kerr. Thanks.
Warriors just get these great performances from the bench guys in the last 6 games and win two in a row and you have a show about the Warriors suck?????? What are you watching????
0:15 why? The "leader" not calling out the coach for the atrocities he's committing on a daily basis with this small guards who can't defend. Don't tell me dunlevey doesn't ask the coach who or what position the team needs. You can blame the front office and joe all you want, but when you see your coach running 3-4 guards lineups and forward are just waste of space and rotting on the bench what will you as a front office guy do?
Mailbag: player comp
Castle vs J Dub??
Jason lost all credibility on Kuminga and the Warriors years ago. Whenever Kuminga plays poorly he trades him; whenever he plays well, Jason lauds his all-star potential. We saw it again in the first five games of the season. Jason declared that the tide had turned. We have receipts. The truth is: you don't know. Which is very hard for an analyst to say, but it's true.
Do you know what happens in baseball if you jog to first on a grounder?
The same happens when you JOG back on defense in basketball (Game 3 against the Wolves with 2:13 left in the game).
The same happens if you're asked to rebound and continue to MISS rebounds (Game 4 against the Wolves: 30 MINUTES AND ZERO REBOUNDS as a so-called "forward").
The same happens when you consistently commit some of the most bone-headed turnovers (passes to Casper the Friendly Ghost) and bail-out fouls.
The same happens when you consistently drive into double/triple-teams and jack up dumb contested shots and whine about a no-call INSTEAD OF KICKING THE BALL OUT.
I don't know why people think KumingAss is talented. His only talent is JUMPING. He has no heart. He has no brain. He has no motor. He has no feel for the game. He has no nose for the ball. He still has NO HANDLES FIVE YEARS INTO THE LEAGUE. He still DOES NOT KNOW HOW TO BOX-OUT FIVE YEARS INTO THE LEAGUE. KumingAss is in the wrong sport. He should be in high jump.
The person to blame is Joe LameAss for "PICKING" KumingAss and REFUSING TO TRADE KumingAss MULTIPLE TIMES.
The Warriors could've had Alex Caruso for KumingAss. Joe LameAss VETOED the trade.
The Warriors could've had Markkanen for KumingAss, Air Potty 🚽, and Mostly Booty. Joe LameAss VETOED the trade.
Joe LameAss is also responsible for "PICKING" James Wiseman.
I believe it was Tim Kawakami who asked Kerr about Quinten Post pregame against the Wolves on 12/12/25, Kerr said, "We’ve wanted a space-5 for a decade." HINT: Franz Wagner in 2021. Joe LameAss wanted KumingAss.
I blame everyone
Seriously though have you watched Kerr’s coaching this season Jason? It’s been abysmal. At least give him an honorable mention.
Monk? Another guard? How many guards are in this roster?
Their GM for missing multiple high draft picks then refusing to trade them at the peak of their value leading to a consistent loss of talent year over year.
Hey Jaspn, i agree with you on most of your points regarding basketball, however, calling Kuminga a bust is crazy! When he plays well he gets yanked, there's no winning if your coach just does whatever he wants whenever he wants and how've he wants
Steve Kerr should have been let go 3 years ago and we should have elevated Mike Brown to HC. Still Steve Kerr needs to be fired. If anybody in the NBA should be investigated for throwing games it’s Steve Kerr. Trade Draymond and Kuminga for AD or more for Giannis
