Hopefully it’s just a knee hyper extension so he’s only out for a few weeks

But if it’s an ACL then yeah it’s over it was a good run
I wanted Jimmy to get a ring too, and they had a legit shot with a small move with the Kuminga trade coming up. If Jimmy's career ends like this that's sad. Curry x Jimmy ring was gonna feed nations 💔

That was his first playoffs iirc, maybe he gets more confidence this year. But nah, I know that the Warriors roster suck, I’m coping and praying for bums to turn into demons and help Curry 😭🙏
Lol...they need an MPJ caliber player at the very least to even make it interesting. They have role players, you need someone who can give you 20 a night consistently. This roster can win some reg season games but it's not doing shit in the playoffs. Podz shits his pants and forgets how to play basketball on any given night, he'll have stretches where he looks like a perennial starter and other stretches where you consider putting a Lacrosse player over him.

Podz has been balling out the last 15-20 games tbf. Maybe he will become the true second option Steph needs :pepecopium:
Lmfao, relying on Podz, it's so over.
 
There's absolutely no chance that Curry is gonna extend his contract and stay after 2027. Next season is probably his last. He's never gonna leave this shitty franchise because he's too loyal for his own good and he's got no reason to play if they're not gonna contend. The atrocious team building that the owners have done has left us with zero assets to make any trade that can get us back to contention. All when Curry is still elite and a top 7 player in the world. And top 5 come playoff time.

The truth is that the FO gave up in 2019 itself after we lost the finals. Has been pretty evident because which FO plans for the future when you have a top 10 player oat and the GOAT PG still in his fucking prime?! That 2022 ring seems more and more of a miracle that Steph willed the team to using his greatness. That does not happen if the team wasn't led by an absolute legend like Steph.

Fuck Lacob. Fuck the Warriors organization. May this organization crumble and burn to the ground for how they've treated a player who's given everything to them for 17 years. Forget his on court greatness, his off court legacy has singlehandedly taken these bums from a franchise that was useless for 4 decades to the most valuable and popular in American sports. He's inspired an entire generation to play basketball in a way that has never been played before. But nah fuck all of that let's focus on 2033 and invest in trash like Kuminga and Podz 🔥🔥

Only a couple more years (probably just 1 and a half more) and Lacob/GSW will realise how much they've lost.

Well, as gutted as I am, I am eternally grateful for 2022. Without it, I'd be depressed forever. Curry sealed his legacy with that run and now no one can take his greatness away from him. He's sealed in the history books and is the greatest PG to ever touch the court. I wanted another ring as a fan but even then, I can probably live without one since we have 2022. I don't know what I woulda done if we didn't win that.

Atleast now I know not to invest my emotions in this franchise anymore. I am free of all expectations and burdens and can just watch Curry ball out in his final years.

Win, lose or draw, just have fun and show us more of your greatness Steph. Sorry that this shit organization failed you

I'm probably done watching Warriors if I'm being honest. I'm going back to keeping track of the Raptors full time if anything.

It was a good run I guess. Shoulda had one more in them but the front office sold for 6 years straight. Insane work, at this point of Steph's career filler reg season games don't interest me without an end goal in sight. It's rings or bust.

honestly, can't stop watching or supporting the Dubs for now since I have been doing this daily since like 2013. They've been my whole childhood and Curry is my basketball superhero so I don't wanna just skip over his final days and regret in the future I missed out on it. But my interest has definitely dwindled and I'll be skipping a lot more games than I used to. Don't know what I'll do after he retires, probably still support this franchise as a casual because I am too far in to turn back. Or just leave the sport worst case scenario.

Thankfully, we have Wemby. He's the only young player that has made me feel genuinely attached to him the same way Steph did to me when I was a kid so I can always root for him.

also didn't know you were a raps fan lol

I'll watch if they get MPJ. Maybe a punchers chance with someone like that. Atleast would make for an interesting first couple rounds this year.

Jimmy is unfortunately done...he'll be close to 38 the next time he's back. His career is pretty much wrapped up. Wow....life really comes at you fast. No one had Jimmy Butler retiring on their bingo card and with one wrong movement it's over for him. What a career honestly, really wanted to see him win one with Curry. It was such a dope duo. And I had no doubt if both were healthy they would have gotten it done this year. Jimmy was quietly playing like a top 15 player this year, and in the playoffs there aren't 10 players you would rather have.

I always tell people, when playoffs come around having Jimmy, just imagine you have someone better than Jayson Tatum on your team. I mean that shit, I wouldn't bet against them in a series.
