It’s about time he put pressure on the organization. I can’t imagine a pro athlete of his caliber just sitting by year after year letting gms and scouts play a major role in the outcome of his career. He should have been even more blunt about it, his statement was passive.

[@brandoni241]

I mean, the team had the highest luxury tax for 4 straight seasons. They did do a lot for him already. To be honest, Steph has maybe 3 good seasons left. He has injury issues every other season (so there will probably be one this season). They're trying, but there's only so much they can do. They have a couple of good young players there. Should they mortgage their future for the 2nd round of the playoffs?

[@XVlTrey]

@@brandoni241 That’s true, and since they play such a massive role for his career, I hope he’s trying to make sure they don’t decide its best to do a 4 year plan to recover money and develop talent blah blah blah. There are cheap role players that can help him win now.

It’s really Lauri or bust now for Golden State. It’s really now or never for the Front Office. Curry don’t wanna go out like Dirk or Kobe, to a lesser degree Kobe since he got injured like crazy towards the end. Lauri would pretty much put the Warriors back in contention and are probably a 52+ win team with Lauri. A bonefied 2nd star is the key for this Warriors team. They owe it to Steph to do whatever it takes to get Lauri.

that front office has failed him ever since they won in 2022. they've prioritized trying to stay young and won't make deals for proven talent bc they believe in life after steph and think kuminga is the next mj or something. and it's maddening when steph is still playing at a very high level and could win a title if they just would go for it and get him the second scorer/shot creator they haven't had since draymond punched poole

[@Solo2121]

With JK I think it's more like he didn't have the trade value to bring that back until he broke out last year. But now you're in a position where even if you trade JK for LM you still aren't winning it all and LM will be 27 and shown he can't even take a team to the playoffs as a #1. I agree that they should have traded Wise, JK, and Moody the summer after 22 chip when they all had good value and together could have gotten you something. But that's on Bailout Bob.

[@Jaydoggie1]

Your crazy mate, they paid a ridiculous luxury tax 4 years in a row up to 2023, they couldn’t keep paying that forever

[@Dryltd]

That's not true. Their were no great FA available from 2022 til now. The team can't pick up another offensive guy when the problem is Klay isn't the great 3&D player he use to be. Wiggins has reverted to Wolves Wiggins. Poole was bad at defense and also was Steph's backup not Klay's. No good centers were available for a trade they can afford. Also you forget that Klay, Steph, and Draymond used to be the young guys coming up. We can't let that weird coincidence of the new CBA with increased cap space and KD being available as FA trick you into thinking easy deals like that are always available.

basically saying to Lacob get me help or Im out.

[@SportNut1]

And even if his performance aren't great next year it probably not his fault because the team is a lot worst and people are free to hard double at half court with no consequence. You can't ask a 6"3 pg to beat all double teams for 40min 82 games. Not even if he is 20

[@kifa61]

also look how they talk about Kobes final years when he had Robert Sacre on the team

[@iamtheonlywilly]

I’m surprised this hasn’t happened already.

[@M.H.J123]

If Warriors don’t land Lauri, then Steph should leave.

[@kohort1]

The problems is whether the trade is going to move the needle if they have to give up too much

[@cameronmccollough98]

Steph should go to the Heat

[@Amos_Lee]

I believe there's an important point to note about Steph. This could be the time for him to assert himself like Kobe did when he demanded a trade, rather than continuing to be the nice guy.

[@damianpresha9833]

After the organization gave him everything? Kind of to late for that.

[@SomeChink]

nah Curry got more than he could ever dream of with GSW He’s gotten every bit of what he earned

[@Amos_Lee]

Steph Curry's impact on the worldwide appeal and worth of the Golden State Warriors surpasses even that of the Yankees. He wields the authority to voice his concerns and exert his influence on ownership, especially in light of Klay Thompson's offseason setback.

[@JCic22]

Nick doesn’t understand players don’t want to play with Lebron

[@Rajneeeeesh]

Steph should have one more run left! Go for a Gobert trade, Golden estate. Time is running, need to act fast and make it to the top one last time.

[@mileshall9235]

"Letting Klay leave...." nah, the beginning of the end was Klay snapping that ACL.

[@Deerjason]

Yeah the warriors are always big spenders. The problem was that paying klay and dray a max contract without them playing like a max player is detrimental. Similar with Wiggins. A big three only works if everyone in the big three actually deserves a max contract.

[@mileshall9235]

@Deerjason Rules have changed. They can't spend as much any more. That happened after the '23 season. The new NBA will be about depth through the roster.
