is that the same guy who picked curry, Klay, and green?

the warriors could really use a big tho
He joined GSW 2011 as assistant GM wasnt in charge of drafting, but was promoted to GM in time for 2012 draft. Neither Splash brothers are his pick (but he was instrumental in keeping Klay, when whole organisation was pushing to trade him for Kevin Love), since they were 2009 and 2011, Jerry West draft picks.


But he has one amazing pick with Draymond at 35th in 2012 (plus Ezeli and Barnes same draft).

Ok decentish picks with Looney and Festus Ezeli at the time ( before he fell off the face of earth).


Most of the others duds (defenitely count Barnes as a dud imo, best thing he did was demand near max from them so they could decline and be motivated target KD lol) or on path to be duds. But they are really late picks so talent level will be low. Unless you find the rare gems like Jokic at 48, extreme majority will disappoint you.






But he is an amazingly nuanced and smart GM, big reason why I dont think people need to close the curtains on their dynasty yet, more of a hiatus IMO. This team has probable high draft pick next summer, and 2021 summer free agency will be huge time to shake things up (murmurs of Greek Freak). Did great getting Dlo in a situation GSW should have gotten nothing and been capped out. Talented enough to work out, or be a very good trade piece.

I know of Jerry West sage veto, but I read an article where Jerry himself says Myers was instrumental in keeping Klay put.



Fuck them both in this case lol, if that trade happend, right now Timberwolves would have Klay instead of Wiggins...

Because of moments like that. :lol:

If I have to sit through 2 hours of monotony for a few moments of comedic timing gold, it's almost worth it

And Shannon Sharpe is far and away more knowledgeable regarding the NFL than Bayless can ever hope to be.

when I say the sport, I mean Basketball, sharpe knows nothing about it except superficial hot takes (it makes sense he knows more about NFL, that his game). And yeah I know they are popular for the comedy :D

I know what you meant. That is the main reason why I watch them , which is for their discussions on the NFL.. And the occasional moments where Jenny Taft looks good. God, how I miss Joy Taylor on that show.
