 what's the word y'all welcome back to NBA every day if you missed yesterday's episode what you probably did it was about the Sacramento Kings and it was a 10 out of 10 which means that nobody watched it I kind of knew what I was getting myself into making an entire video about the Sacramento Kings but I'm doing the exact same thing for all 30 NBA teams and this is day number two and we're talking about the Warriors I just felt like if I'm going to talk about a team that have a little bit of relevancy I should back it up by talking about a team with a lot of a lot of relevancy because they have like Steph Curry, Steph Claytops is coming back from an injury, Ah Draftpix, Jonathan Kominga all of those things leave a like subscribe use the hashtag NBA every day on Twitter and stuff if you have questions you want me to answer let's just be engaged or in the comment section that works too all right before we even talk about the Warriors can we address this Jonathan Kominga thing because it has got out of hand if you have no idea what I'm talking about every year we do a live stream of the NBA draft the NBA lottery and Jonathan Kominga was drafted and I made a joke it was half joke half like low key kind of serious and it went too far I'm not even gonna repeat what it was because I wanted to die I know it won't die because it's Twitter and nothing nothing dies on Twitter but I don't want credit for coming up with that nickname because it was unintentional is I didn't want to do that I didn't think it would go as far as it did all right so Jonathan if you're watching this video to me for your the entirety of your career I will call you Jonathan Kominga and nothing else unless you get like a real nickname you will always be Jonathan Kominga to me not what I said a couple weeks ago okay okay now to the actual Warriors because last season was definitely up and down New York starting off I hope y'all remember Steph Curry had a couple I would say dud Steph Curry type games and I'm again in the season and people were all over the place and I told y'all if he ain't got KD if he ain't got Clay Thompson Steph Curry is just a shooter he shut all of that up like like that um it's kind of crazy what people would say and I really use their eyes and use like a resume I don't really know but he shut all that up and the warrior season itself was also a lot of ups and downs the one of the few bright spots is the fact that that Dreymond Green's showcase oh that year last year was not what Dreymond Green really is and he still shows that he can be one of the best defensive players in the league I think he officially ended a third in defensive player of the year and he still has an amazing impact on the offensive side of the ball even if he's finished in the game with two points and one for seven from the field he can still be a positive offensive player while being an elite level defender you even have players like Andrew Wiggins kind of changed the narrative around him at least a little bit Wiggins has always been a guy empty stats does he really love the game can he perform at a high level yada yada and a lot of that went away because he had a lot of solid moments um with the Warriors now again I would still say he's an overpaid NBA player but he still is a quality NBA player then you had the emergence of Juan Toscano Anderson and though he doesn't impact the game crazy on the box score numbers he showcased that he belongs in the NBA and those were like the bright things you had the season of Kelly Ubrey do you remember the first couple months of Kelly Ubrey's season with the Warriors he could not hit anything and I remember him ended up on the words I was like that's that is an amazing pickup whether he's starting or coming off the bench Kelly Ubrey is going to be that guy for them and he didn't and hopefully that changes when he gets to Charlotte but not even just that one of the biggest downsides to this season for them was James Wise if you remember last offseason there was a lot of questions revolving around the Warriors and what they would do with that pick and what they decided was they wanted to get their cake and eat it too now what I mean by that is they had one of the most I don't know valuable picks in recent history because I know I don't know if y'all remember when we got to that drive class everybody says top three Jeff top three Jeff it's Anthony Lamello ball and James Wiseman so they had this valuable valuable pick you had the Wiggins contract and though Clay Thompson suffered a setback a lot of people expected them to use that pick to go out and get another star I saw a lot of photo shops of Bradley Beale and the Warriors Jersey but they ultimately decided to use that pick because they wanted to put together a competent team to win a championship right now while also building a team for the future and what do we find out it ain't that easy y'all it ain't that easy now nobody expected the Warriors to be a championship team especially again with Clay Thompson being out but what we found out is that James Wiseman and trying to develop him in one of the most um one of the most advanced offenses and of all time trying to trying to get him to learn those type of things on the fly will also try to be a playoff team was detrimental to the team so detrimental that once James Wiseman went out with his injury the Warriors start to turn up they don't need to teach this kid where to be on the offensive side of the ball or what to do on defense they turned up after that and I don't want anybody to misunderstand me I'm not saying that James Wiseman can't be any league-level player or he won't be great with the Warriors in the near future I'm just saying for this upcoming season they struggled with showing him the ropes and getting him to be an impactful player and now we come around to this offseason where similar things are happening no they don't have one of the top three picks in this year's draft but they have two lottery picks they have a superstar player and Steph Curry who's 33 years old and just showcased oh I can still be an MVP caliber player we just mentioned that Draymond Grinkin still be amazing and he just went to um Tokyo and won a gold so we know he still plays in high level and Clay Thompson is coming back the big three the one-on-one championship before Katie got there will all be back and I'm not saying they're all going to be to the fullest extent because once by the time Draymond Grinkin did jump shot and Clay Thompson they don't even think he's going to be ready for the season opener and when he does come back as much as I want to say Clay Thompson is going to be at his hundred percent he's going to be an all-star caliber player immediately I don't think that's the case when you think about him suffering two major knee slash leg injuries in the span of a year so they have these two lottery picks and similar things happen everybody photoshopping oh snap um Ben Simmons Ben Simmons is on the trade block how will Ben Simmons and Draymond Grinkin work together can they make it work we'll find out maybe we should do that trade oh Bradley Beal may not be happy with the situation we got lottery picks we got Wiggins is contract we got James Wiseman who we low key not in love with anymore but we can try to convince some other teams to take we're probably gonna make a trade right we're probably gonna try to get another star to come in to help this aging Warriors team level up to another championship before it is too late and what did they decide to do they decided to draft down at the comminga and Moses Moody and I don't again I don't want you to misinterpret saying that I think that these two players are not going to be in pack four good place for the future but this goes back to what I'm saying they're trying to have their cake and eat it too they're trying to put together a championship level team in the present when they have an all-time great point guard and more on their team we're also trying to develop young talent for the next stage and in the grand scheme of the NBA this hasn't worked often when you think about teams that have won championships especially in the recent future or the recent recent years we have the Milwaukee Bucks who traded a ton of picks to get that last piece for drew holiday we have the LA Lakers who traded all of their picks in their young assets to get Anthony Davis we got the Toronto Raptors who are low key I guess it was kind of a finesse they traded the Martin Rosen and one young piece and I think one more extra pick or something low key kind of finesse of a trade we think about a shout out to Masai and then you got yourself when you won those other championships but that wasn't like you didn't have any young players on the team really it was like hey we played free agency and cap ridiculously well remember when Steph Curry took an extension when he was still on the bum ankle which means that we had a lot of cap space when cap space opened up and we got Kevin Arach so we giving that a little x that don't really fit into what I'm trying to explain right now the heat traded everything for the championships to bring in the big three the Mavericks wasn't it didn't have the young players either they made moves to try to get get better now and gave up pieces and they blew the team up after winning the championship it's just it's just kind of weird the only team I can look at in recent history that low key kind of did this to some extent was the Spurs you had an aging Tim Duncan an aging Tony Park and Mono Ginobili were still good players you can say the same thing about Steph Curry Clay Thompson and Draymond Green all going to be still really good players but they also had the boy and Kawhi Leonard to come in and be the guy that's going to keep it together right now but also supposed to be the guy for the future now unfortunately for the Spurs um Kawhi Leonard suffered a quad injury that derailed his entire career with the San Antonio Spurs but that was the only thing I could think about where an aging team had a young player that was going to be the bridge between the now in the future because at the end of the day the only thing that matters for the Warriors for Steph Curry for Draymond and for Clay Thompson is winning another championship I know I saw the reports of Draymond Green texting the general manager saying when their pick was up he wanted Kaminga on the team respect that I understand Kaminga's a bucket I've been watching some summer league I understand now but is Jonathan Kaminga this upcoming season where you're trying to win a championship or even next season we're trying to win a championship is he going to help you get over that hump the answer is probably not so what now I saw some more reports that they're still thinking about Ben Simmons and I'm like what does that even look like because I don't think you can trade Kaminga I don't think you can trade Moses Moody right now because they're a summer league they didn't they didn't ink their contracts already right so you'd have to do the Wiseman you'd have to do the Wiggins and then some picks I guess I don't know and I wonder what Warriors fantastic obviously Warriors fans are probably in cloud now because again Jonathan Kaminga Moses Moody able to really solid and in summer league but they also look like players that might take a couple years before if they're going to ever be an all-star caliber player to be that all-star caliber player when the Warriors in 2021 probably need one more piece to be in that upper echelon of contenders and listen I think they had a very good offseason if you can get Otto Porter to play games Otto Porter is an amazing player to have on your team for the amount of money you pay of that minimum OP bro only 28 years old it's so disappointed because when you got traded from the Washington Chicago Bulls I was low key kind of hype because the previous years he was a 40% 3-point shooter 40% 3-point shooter 40% 3-point shooter then he got to Chicago and never was playing and he was in the clubs do they got clubs where he just got signed to because of close them close them because OP will be there but if you could keep him healthy that's an amazing pickup um um who else Nemanja Bialitza adds another element to the offense because you know that Draymond Green could play some small ball five and having Nemanja Bialitza clay tops and a Steph Curry on the court together sounds like an offense that's going to be hitting the 100 threes and I know Nemanja is not going to average more than like 20ish minutes a game but in those 20 minutes if he could still shoot at the clip that he had shot in the previous points of his career a W and now Iggy is back this man wrote a whole book about him being a six man with the Warriors and he's back so I do like their offseason but I'm very curious to what type of conversations went on in their front office that ultimately led to them for two years in a row keeping a pick where majority of NBA fans thought that they would have been wants to be buyers were they being stingy with these picks were teams asking for too much because I can understand them calling up the 76ers during the draft and say hey we won't been Simmons and the 76ers write like we won both of the picks we won't Wiggins to make the contracts work we won't Weisman and we want your next four picks let me know two things Warriors fans I always pose I'm going to try to keep posing the question for the die hard fans about the organization I'm talking about if your team doesn't win the championship in the next couple years do you think as a fan of the Warriors you'll look back on these recent draft picks and regret them regardless of how good these players could be in the near future because I think they're they're going to be pretty solid in the future if you don't win another championship with this big three of this core that you won three with already will you regret keeping these picks and that's another NBA today ladies and gentlemen every NBA every day I didn't forget to name my own so love y'all peace
