Episode notes
Play Steph If Healthy And Consider Giannis Trade Logic
- Do not bench Steph Curry unless he's not 100 percent; let him play if healthy because competitive players shouldn't be told to sit when they can contribute.
- Consider trading for Giannis only if Warriors can offer heavy draft compensation and accept short-term risk to give Curry one more championship window.
Why Warriors Are So Inconsistent Without Curry
- Warriors inconsistency stems from unstable secondary ball handling when Curry is out, causing wide game-to-game variance.
- Jason McIntyre points to rotating role handlers like Brandon Paytonski and Pat Spencer who can shine some nights and struggle others.
Great Players Make Milestones Feel Routine
- Elite players make historic feats feel routine because of consistent excellence, which dulls public reaction.
- McIntyre compares Jokic, Luka, Shea and others: their regular high-level box scores normalize triple-doubles and big stat lines.
