The Warriors have flaws that aren't going away anytime soon. Positional size, perimeter defense, turnovers, and shot-creation outside of Steph/Jimmy are just a few. With the Kings declaring themselves open for business, does a Kuminga for Sabonis trade package make sense for the Dubs?
Moses Moody's career night helped the Warriors cruise by the Pelicans in what seemingly could have been a trap game. Moody's steady growth from year to year has seen him become the Dubs best 3 and D role player. Also, Draymond doesn't like being called "Angel Reese."
Steph drops a combined 95 pts in 2 games in San Antonio to remind the world that he's still the greatest show in sports. It was an exhilarating matchup with Victor Wembenyama and the Spurs, as the Warriors seem to have found their identity – Curry Brand.
Coming off of an embarrassing butt-kicking against the Thunder, the Warriors fell behind 16 pts in the first half to the Spurs. But just as hope was dimming, Batman arose from the shadows with a 22 point 3rd quarter and carried the Dubs to a much-needed road victory.
The Warriors eventually broke out of an offensive slump towards the end of the 3rd quarter against the Pacers, winning by 30. But the story continues to be the ascension of Will Richard. Richard is turning into the steal of the draft and his traits seem sustainable, albeit only a dozen games into the season.
Will Richard, Moses Moody, and Jonathan Kuminga were bright spots — but only silver linings as the Warriors let a winnable game slip away in Sacramento.
Steph Curry, Jimmy Butler and the Warriors look like the real deal. With the emergence of young players against Memphis followed by an elite-level defensive effort against the Clippers, the Dubs are showing both depth and championship-level potential this season.
That was exhilarating. A Steph Curry legendary performance led the Warriors back from a halftime deficit against the Nuggets despite an Aaron Gordon career night. The Dubs might have found a new closing lineup that can propel them into the top tier of contenders.
Steph Curry, Jimmy Butler, and Jonathan Kuminga led the way as the Warriors took down a LeBron-less Lakers squad — a game that would’ve been a full-on blowout if not for Luka Doncic’s brilliance. Butler’s presence has already added a new layer to Golden State’s elite culture, and nowhere was that more clear than in Kuminga’s performance. The young forward delivered one of his most complete games yet, flashing the kind of growth and potential that should have Warriors fans excited.
With Steph Curry and Jimmy Butler resting for preseason game 3, the Warriors got a good look at their offense led by Podz and Kuminga. While the team looked stuck in the mud, Podz went off and showed a glimpse of what he could someday become as a lead guard. Host Chris Chinn breaks down what he saw from both Podz and JK in high usage roles.
Preseason Game 2 wasn’t exactly a confidence booster for the Golden State Warriors. Facing a young, athletic Portland Trail Blazers squad, the Dubs gave up 73 first-half points and showed some concerning trends that carried over from last season.
The Warriors are finally back on the court! In their first preseason game against the Lakers, we learned a lot about potential lineups and combinations. But nothing was more evident than the fact that Al Horford is a seamless fit on the Warriors and unlocks several winning lineups.
Aside from staying healthy and overcoming age-related drop-offs, there are 4 X-factors to the Golden State Warriors making a deep postseason run. How many of these areas of opportunity can they grow in? If the answer if 4, they may be looking at ring number 5.
Jonathan Kuminga has FINALLY signed with the Warriors on a 2 year, $48.5m deal with a team option attached. Host Chris Chinn tells you why it's the best case deal given the options at the 11th hour and how both sides can turn this into a home run on the court.
The additions of Al Horford and De'Anthony Melton finally unlock dozens of lineup combinations that the Warriors struggled with last year. It's rare to acquire affordable two-way veteran FAs and the Dubs found TWO. Host Chris Chinn thinks the Warriors will have a top 5 defense this year.
Who are the two best role players to close games with next to Steph, Jimmy and Draymond? We prioritize what skillsets matter most for the Dubs at the end of games and come up with optimal closing lineup combinations. Steve Kerr and the Warriors simply cannot continue parading out dozens of different lineups in crunch-time hoping to strike lightning in a bottle.
Jake Fischer tells us (for the 100th time) that the Warriors have interest in Trey Murphy III. So let's get it frickin' done. Host Chris Chinn has decided it's time to pay the steep price to give Steph Curry a real shot at a 5th ring.
Shams and Slater shared huge updates on where things stand with the Warriors negotiations with Jonathan Kuminga. While it still stands at a stalemate, at least new concepts to deals are being explored. But time is running out...
Happy 100 episodes to Stacking Dubs!
Reports say Jonathan Kuminga is not budging on his stance towards the Warriors' 2 yr $45m offer. What would it mean for him and the Dubs if he actually did the unthinkable and accepted the $7.9m qualifying offer? Host Chris Chinn takes you through what options that may open up for GSW and offers a compromise that both sides should accept.
Should the Warriors wash their hands of Kuminga to obtain Josh Giddey? While both are similar in overall value, they couldn't be more different as players. We analyze whether the swap in skillsets would be a better fit for Steph Curry's Warriors.
