All in on Kuminga!
This is the history of warriors signing young players with potential. For reason the the dubs sign old players. You had caffey,fortson,gugliotta,
Sampson,Dunleavy,vonteego,. Webber,fuller,alexander. I know I forgot some more players. Anyone add to my list. It was depressing to be a Warrior. Can anyone give me a list of warriors last 25 years of the 1st round picks?
15M below is the right price. If he is asking a Jordan Poole like contract, the GSW should let him go. He can score, but his impact will not turn the team to playoff contender.
JK will play his best and show he's worth it..25/5/5 and win a champ…definitely will pay him well!
I know Kuminga came from humble beginnings, but he believes I did not come here all the way from the Congo to settle. I want to bet on myself and maximize my value.
Why is it that fans are ok with corporate greed, doing whatever they can to maximize their profits but when a player wants to maximize their income it’s seen as greed? Kuminga is only 22 as of this month. I’d like to remind Warriors fans that Steph didn’t make his first all star game appearance until his 4th season. He was 26 when he won his first MVP. Kawhi didn’t make his first all star appearance until his 5th season. He had a coach who excelled at developing young player. I think Warriors fans expectations of JK is unfair considering his age and how Kerr has coached him.
The Kuminga thing is weird. Hes better than GS thinks he is but Kuminga isnt as good as he thinks he is either
35mill a year is a good number. Also, this terrible mentality needs to end wtf did i just hear??? Protecting billionaires from themselves??? GTFOH if they are stupid enough to overpay a brotha whos just tryna get their bread, then how is that the PLAYERS' FAULT?
Im absolutely floored by this take. Treating grown old a$$ billionaires like children but punishing regular brothas who worked their way into this leveraged position is INSANE
You’re a fool if you don’t believe this doesn’t have anything to do with the way he’s been treated. This is his way of taking some power back to decide his future instead of giving an organization that he doesn’t trust all power and control.
Let's be honest. Kerr has haulted kuminga forsure. But it's not like kuminga has been a Antony Edwards either. 200m for what. Klay before injury was one of the best 2 way players. He was top5 in the league pre injury. He never got 200. Giving these kids who have done nothing 200m plus is the reason they never end up being great. Example- Zion the flop. It's a business but I think until a player is 25 they should never be able to sign a 25+ mil contract a year. Just look at kuminga. Love him or hate him what has he done. A few irrelevant dunks and nothing. This year he either should be given time and he needs to do his talent justice or be traded. Personally I like players like moody. Very professional and calculated. He's a keeper.
I clicked on it because I thought it was about Jontay Porter.
Not a bad move for either side. Everyone gets to see if Kuminga is really worth the max. Based on current and past performances, I think everyone would agree Kuminga is not really worth the max. His entire game is based on getting downhill and exploiting his explosiveness- kinda like a poor man's Giannis only without the defensive prowess and the 6'11 size.
GSW can trade Kuminga for Jazz's Walker Kessler – a true defensive anchor that can defend against Anthony Davis, Embid, Wembanyama, Jokic and other scoring bigs
Starter
C – Walker Kessler
PF – Draymond Green (3 and D)
SF – Moses Moody (3 and D)
SG – Andrew Wiggins (3 and D)
PG – Steph Curry
If Moody's playing time was not screwed up the last 2 years he should have gotten more than what he signed for this year.
I hear you and agree on pretty much everything but the end. As of today Wagner had been the better player. The guy was a central piece in his NBA team, but also the National team. So, yes JK had the potential, but as of now he has yet to prove that he is as valuable as Wagner.
Just my two cents he is all in leaving Warriors he and agent cant stand Kerr as to how he handle JK. Revenge ask for Max although he hasnt shown much not all his fault. He isnt worth it unless he shows he can take over a game.
Glad Moody got paid.
Call me crazy, but we don’t really need Kuminga. Instead, let’s benefit from his trade value. We can win without him. He’s really not all that. He’s not ready for a max deal.
I can see the future now!!! Kerr warriors let kuminga walk right out the door, max deal for podz, another multi year deal for looney!!!!🎉
It makes sense for the Warrior to wait and see. Jonathan hasn't done anything yet.
I dont think it's kuminga, He's from congo and grew up not in privileged condition. It's his agent that wants the max for him.
Kuminga Career Highs Incoming #FreeKuminga⏳🔋💰📈
These youngins prove nothing in the NBA but want Max contracts. I love kuminga but this pisses me off $200m+ Hes not worth that. Bro can barley shoot 3s
JK is nuts to turn down that kind of money. Who know's what happens between now and next year. Set your family up when you have the chance. We saw what happened to the Niners 1st round pick.
Bro did you just say assified? Lmfao (thank you for time stamps)
Can we get a team without someone with a damn gripe
You know he’s gonna pout
Still not sold on Kuminga
Depending on how this season goes…if the Dubs underperform again, I want to blow it up and rebuild. We can't afford to keep chasing championships with old players and depleted benches. It ain't working like that any more. If we sh!t the bed this season, I would be in favor of trading….just wait…Curry & Dray this offseason, stockpiling significant draft capital, and utilizing it to make moves in the upcoming drafts. Maybe we would acquire enough draft capital to pry the #1 pick from whoever ends up with it this next draft for Flagg, or even the year after's class has a lot of promising talent. I don't say that to hate on Steph or Dray, but if we need to rebuild, we need to rebuild. There is simply no way that we could add a player, while depleting our bench, and that one player making us title favorites. Unless it is Giannis. Period. I don't want any other superstars. Most are old…injury prone…and likely to cost us the farm in order to TRY and get two more prime seasons out of our aging vets.
As a lifelong Dubs fan, the LAST thing I want to see is us reverting back to the pre-Steph era Dubs…you know…where we sucked so bad they sold $2 tickets to try and fill seats? And when fans would only show up if we were playing teams with superstar players, so they could see a good team. I'd rather thank Steph and Dray, retire their numbers, give them their statues outside Chase, and then build our future around JK, Mood, Podz, TJD.
Everything I see points to some move before the deadline this season. Dunleavy's comments, a roster stocked with too many good players on good contracts… JK is just another hint. They're saving cap money to sign a name player.
I love that JK is betting on himself. A lot of people won’t understand what that really means and will say why not just take what they offer you because it’s still a lot of money. But when you are someone who bets on yourself in your on job or career situation as it pertains to salary negotiations, you understand why you always should. I had a career coach who told me to always ask for a number that was significantly higher than you felt comfortable asking for. I didn’t understand that at first because that’s what learned fear does. #KumingaDoYouBro
I'm TELLING YOU!!!! JK is gonna be a BEAST!!!! It starts this year, assuming Kerr doesn't sh!t the bed again with his incompetence. JK is a beast. JK SHOULD bet on himself. He will get his bag. The Dubs better FVCKING PAY UP!!! The ONLY reason JK's numbers aren't SUPERIOR to others in his class, is because of Kerr's ABSOLUTE incompetence. Check the total minutes played between him and his class. Hell…I am pretty sure even Banchero has way more minutes played than JK. It is a CRIME!!! And then the Dubs claim he hasn't shown he is worth it. Well, FVCK!!!! GIVE HIM THE CHANCE!!!
40 mins a game, 20+ shot attempts per game, you'll get averages around 25 ppg, 7rpg, 3-4 apg and a steal, on 55+% from the field and 35+% from 3, with around 10 FT attempts per game. Those numbers would be LIGHT WORK for him to put up. That is what I'd expect his floor to be once he is given free reign.
Nothing wrong with talking about dude pockets and money. They get paid millions to put a ball in a basket. They should be criticized meticulously including their pocketbooks and performance.
Respect his game. But he would have to average 25pts 7 reb 5 as per game and at least 37% from 3, as well as be engaged on defense and considered a good defender for him to deserve 40 mil per year
Kuminga probably got advice from Klay.
That’s crazy. I see what he’s trying to do but there are so many unknowns. What if he gets hurt? What if he has a shooting slump? This reminds me of the Schroeder thing. He bet on himself and lost. Turned down 80mil just to come back for 5mil. I guess life is all about risks.
You’re right Alc…exceptions are for the exceptional!!!
I’m a Dubs fan and would rather have Trey Murphy. No shade on JK, just love TM’s game and he would fit this team better.
Thanks unc
Kumi won’t stay at GSW cos curry won’t retire until 40 😂, as long as curry at GSW he’s always underdog
My main problem with him is his poor rebounding numbers. He's so athletic, he should be averaging 8 rebounds a game. But he uses his athleticism selfishly.
I don't have high hopes for him, we should trade him while we can
Sixers trading for him
He doesn’t want to play for Steve Kerr anyway
Kuminga sign a 3 year 100 million… what a terrible CBA for players
