“Every trade deadline I’m involved in rumors… not even while injured I’m safe. It’s a little stressful, my family suffers. It’s not nice being in rumors.” Among them, the Golden State Warriors: “It would be nice to play with Curry and Klay Thompson.”

The Jekyll and Hyde Sixers strike again. Letdown loss after Monday night’s upset win, Wizards beat them 106-103.
Hard to win when Joel Embiid takes 27 shots to get his 27 points, especially when Seth Curry doesn’t play. Don’t think they were bad shots, just an off night. – 9:23 PM

The noise for Ja Morant at MSG tonight is like a Stephen Curry sound. You hear the oohs and aahs as soon as the crowd thinks he’s about to do anything. He’s got 15 at halftime and the Grizzlies lead 64-52. – 8:46 PM

Sixers had briefly taken the lead at the top of the second, but another burst by the Wizards have them back up 43-34. With Curry/Korkmaz/Milton out, Myles Powell has been the backup PG tonight and it’s been a but dicey. – 7:44 PM

Kerr on Klay’s rough shooting night:”We’ve talked to him & he knows it’s a process. His shot will consistently be there over time. But in the first weeks, there’s gonna be some tough nights. But that’s all part of it. I think he looks great physically & he did great defensively.” – 12:51 AM

Klay Thompson is starting to get frustrated that his shot isn’t falling. He just took the sweat band he was wearing on his wrist a whipped it at the Warriros bench as he yelled at himself.
He’s 4-of-11 from the floor, 1-of-6 from three – 9:30 PM

More on this storyline
Rubio’s contract with the Cavs comes to an end this summer. He will be a free agent right after recovering from injury. “How concerned I am? Zero. I’ve already made my money in the NBA. It’s all up to me, how I recover from injury. I’m in no rush, I’m not going to say anything until June unless something extraordinary happens. My only goal is recover from knee injury.” -via Spotify / February 3, 2022
He won’t have to deal with that stuff for much longer, however, as the Spaniard has also planned out with his family when to move on from the NBA. When his younger two-year-old son starts school, in four years approximately. “When my son starts school, the NBA will not be worth it. I will have to go back. I don’t want to make him dizzy moving around when he’s six years old, at the age of starting to make friends. It was discussed with my wife and we have it very clear. There will come a time when basketball will not be the priority.” -via EuroHoops.net / January 14, 2022
In fact, the perception of the Cavs around the NBA at the time was so poor — and Rubio, at this stage of his career, seemed like such an odd fit for a rebuilding Cleveland franchise — that other teams thought he was going to negotiate a buyout. The Golden State Warriors, sources say, were keenly interested in Rubio hitting the market and partnering him with Stephen Curry. -via The Athletic / December 6, 2021
