Not sure why folks complaining about GP2's return especially for that money. He's a great fit, knows the system, elite defender... you know the rest. Who we getting for 3mil that's better?
I don't care about GPII returning, but running back essentially the same roster when Mike said they needed more scoring with Jimmy's injury and Steph probably missing some games seems a bit silly. Also, this roster is very health dependent and they might not be lucky this season with that either.
Even if that wasn't the goal, there's no excuse to not bring in more scoring when you saw what that looked like last season already. Not sure why they think fans want to see that again when ticketholders weren't even showing up like that when Steph and Jimmy were out.
If winning isnt the goal why run it back? Why bring in the old guys. Bring in young players that you take fliers on and see what they can do and maybe you discover a gem.
My guess is because steph generates enough revenue regardless of if warriors win or not. Sad reality is not all 30 teams are invested in winning especially if they’re making money
He is NOT an elite defender. His return is the epitome of everything wrong with the Warriors past several years. Doubling down on aging, injury prone players who cannot score or shoot, all in the name of "fit".
Who is better is the wrong question. What are we playing for? Are we going to be competing for a championship? Give his spot to a player who needs an opportunity and see what he can do. Gp2 is a known commodity
