    This reminds me of 2016 when he sprained his McL in the second round then tried to rush back. That cost them a championship

      Yup, coming back from injury, he had flashes of brilliance, but he wasn’t 100%.

      Is that when he went crazy on Portland in overtime?

    • Amiram Peled

      Well that and the softest flagrant foul called by the league in an overturned review on Dreymond . And the softest six fouls ejection to an MVP.

    It really doesn’t bother me that Curry is out, we still got Poole, which he would obviously be starting GUARD now since Curry injured, all we need to do is keep up the number 2 seed

    • Jo

      Dude we’re way too far ahead to fall that far. There’s only 12 games left

    • MyNameIsTwan

      March 18, 2022 at 12:52 pm

      @Brandon K Play in 🤣🤣🤣 dude we the 2nd seed, you gotta be like 9-10 seed to qualify for play in, we not finna fl that low tf

      @MyNameIsTwan we’re only 7 wins ahead of the play in tournament. If they go on a crazy loss streak they’ll ll end up there before they even realize it. The only thing that gives me hope is that the timberwolves have an extremely hard schedule ahead.

      If the warriors can get the rest of team some minutes such as Poole whose been solid all year Wiggins, klay,green,kuminga,Moody, Wiseman, Looney, igudola, etc and keep record to the 2nd/3rd seed then everyone gets more touches and experience. Curry gets to rehab and rest till playoffs which help heal up any other minor injuries and on paper won’t be as needed till 2nd round of playoffs anyways then its not all bad. Yes its not ideal but isn’t as bad as first thought. Also Curry, klay,Green, Looney, igudola,Poole,have played together a lot with Kerr and staff having so many deep successful playoff/championship runs recently Curry is honestly the best big 3 player you want to have this happen too. Opposed to green,Wiseman, Klay etc. Plus they have Wiseman, green,Wiggins, klay,curry,kuminga, Moody,and Poole next year plus whomever else under contract and they can an will match or extend Poole next year if it makes sense but warrior report to wanting to. Im excited bout this year but next if healthy will be amazing with young guys improving and having Wiseman and klay to start with.

    Cp3 has a hand injury curry has a leg injury curry injury is more dangerous and harder to come back from because curry won’t be able to practice and run so his conditioning will be bad plus he has a terrible history with ankle issues warriors my nerves cooked 😞

      I’ve yet to hear this one. Kudos to you sir, you came up with a good one

      @Lavar Ball he’s better than that. He’s a blind fan

    Time for Andrew wiggins to start scoring like Tracy McGrady.

      Pfft, you’re asking for tooooooooo much

    • sedohema

      March 18, 2022 at 8:49 pm

      How about klay and dray step up their games

    • Lean De Ocampo

      March 18, 2022 at 10:42 pm

      @sedohema dray will run both ends, it’s up to wiggs, klay and poole to catch the offensive load

    If he comes back healthy this could be good. Steph needed rest but if he’s not 100% this wont help the Warriors win a chip. Better for Steph to come back Round 2 if possible if he needs longer rest.

    • CHRISTIAN GARCIA

      March 18, 2022 at 12:46 pm

      round 2? they could possibly lose the first round without him

    • Nick Lubrino

      March 18, 2022 at 12:52 pm

      @CHRISTIAN GARCIA A possible 1st round opponent is 6th seeded Denver which the Warriors have lost the season series even with Steph Curry.

    • Tanuj Iyengar

      March 18, 2022 at 2:17 pm

      @Nick Lubrino Draymond or Wiseman didn’t play in any of those games. They will be fine once everyone is healthy, which is expected to be the case on Sunday.

    • Nick Lubrino

      March 18, 2022 at 2:23 pm

      @Tanuj Iyengar Draymond and Wiseman, with no Steph Curry, will LOSE to Denver. C’mon, with no Steph, the Warriors were garbage last year. They were 1-10.

    • soulslayer434

      March 18, 2022 at 3:50 pm

      Guys. I said Steph come back Round 2 if possible. Like as in they play a couple games w/o him if he’s not close to 100% and if they win rest him to round 2 and if they lose play him in the next game.

    Indefinitely dosent mean he’s coming back for sure before the playoffs they don’t even know yet

    • Gideon

      March 18, 2022 at 1:13 pm

      they reported too early they actually don’t even know yet. The only thing they reported correctly is the injury but they just assumed the timeline there’s nothing official on the timeline yet.

  7. Sonya Williams

    March 18, 2022 at 12:42 pm

    They should be okay with Poole and Wiseman. But they not winning a championship without Curry.

    • Dylan Patel

      March 18, 2022 at 4:02 pm

      Wow what a bold statement, I don’t think the bucks are winning if giannis gets injured, or the 76ers if Embiid, ECT

  8. Gbone

    March 18, 2022 at 12:44 pm

    Guess we’ll see how good the warriors without Steph

  9. FAMOUS LEE

    March 18, 2022 at 12:44 pm

    Tbh this could help tbh but I also do know we still got depth in dray back to so it helps to me I. Oh opinion

    Too hype for warriors only to get eliminated!!!!!

  11. Mark Serdenia

    March 18, 2022 at 12:57 pm

    Warriors are small

  12. Amiram Peled

    March 18, 2022 at 12:58 pm

    Stephen A, Just Curry coming back healthy is not enough. Curry Kaly and Drey had about 30 minutes of playing time together in the last 3 years. Wiseman has still not played for them and they need him against bigs. Klay has yet to play with GP2 and Iggy this year. If the whole team has been healthy and clicking and they just need to insert Curry back than it might be a plus, but that is not the situation. Plus they might fall to 5 now behind Dallas and Utah. they might lose homecourt for the entire playoffs.

    Doesnt matter, Bucks & Nets & 76ers are in another level. Golden State has no centerrrrrrr

    Wcf still within reach. Championship hopes seem gone now assuming health

  15. Gideon

    March 18, 2022 at 1:11 pm

    Okay, Perk wanna disrespect Poole that’s fine. He’s been disrespected his whole career. .

  16. i’m BodySoulSpirit

    March 18, 2022 at 1:26 pm

    they injured him because that was the gameplan. I do the same thing in 2k to get the upper hand. I sent Harden home for the rest of the season with a broken back

  17. AZ Cards Phx Suns ON GOD

    March 18, 2022 at 1:44 pm

    With or without Curry and WiseWoman, the Suns will still ho slap the midget Golden Shower Warriors in the playoffs in a 7 game series!

  18. Starship Captain

    March 18, 2022 at 2:58 pm

    I think the Warriors starting Poole, Klay, Wigs, Dray and Looney is a formidable line up and they should win 65% of their games. When Wiseman coming back that should jump to 70%. If Steph comes back for playoffs he will come back to a better and stronger team and they have a great chance to win it all.

    A month’s rest for Curry—probably a blessing in disguise.

  20. Sammy Morales

    March 18, 2022 at 4:19 pm

    Steph hasn’t had ankle problems since 2013

  21. Cedrick b

    Swear this dude Perkins act like the Warriors stole money from him or something, he’s ALWAYS rooting against them.
