Two random notes from after G6 I never used anywhere:
Ayesha Curry was wearing the jacket Steph got for making the 75th Anniversary Team.
When Klay was getting up from the podium, Wiggins was there, and Klay joked, “Canada, baby. Steve Nash never even got a ring. He’s my guy.” – 11:10 AM

Bob Myers deserves a big time raise. The past decade he’s: Drafted Draymond. Signed Steph to a $44M extension that made it possible for Iguodala & KD to come. Hired Kerr. Didn’t just let KD walk; traded him for what became Wiggins & Kuminga. Brought 4 rings to the Bay. Cha-ching. – 3:02 PM

Fundamentally sound basketball.
That finish by Wiggins on the fast break was perfection. – 9:41 PM

Steph Curry might win a title with Andrew Wiggins as the 2nd-beat player.
Who is the worst 2nd-best player on a championship team?
2011 Jason Terry
1994 Robert Horry
Who else?
That’s not a slight on Wiggins as much as it’s a testament to Steph’s ability to elevate everyone. – 7:39 PM

How @Kevin Durant may have made this Warriors 2022 NBA title run possible:
1. KD agrees to a sign & trade for D’Angelo Russell instead of just signing with the Nets
2. Warriors trade Russell for Andrew Wiggins
3. Wiggins dominates Game 5 of the #NBAFinals

More on this storyline
After playing a pivotal role in Golden State’s championship success, Kevon Looney’s forthcoming free agency will be monitored more closely than anyone might have imagined a month ago. Charlotte and Sacramento, soon to be coached by Golden State assistant Mike Brown, are among the teams said to be interested in signing Looney away from the Warriors -via marcstein.substack.com / June 18, 2022
After accepting Charlotte’s job offer during the NBA Finals last week, further conversations with the Hornets’ organization led Atkinson to believe that both professionally and personally it would be best to remain with the Warriors, sources said. Atkinson and the Hornets had agreed in principle to a four-year deal, but a contract was never signed, sources said. -via ESPN / June 18, 2022
Atkinson informed both Charlotte and Golden State of his decision on Saturday, sources said. He will become the top assistant with Golden State, who will be without Mike Brown after he accepted the head coaching job with the Sacramento Kings. -via ESPN / June 18, 2022
