we talkin bout practice

he can be arrogant but don't cheat on your workout

I think this is off season so there's no news to talk about. Kuminga is a kid with big dreams and sometimes lose patience on the bench. We clearly saw improvement in his game through out the season. He is not use to this professional settings and all that because he comes from a 3rd world country. I don't think we saw him complaining or doing anything wrong during games or team practice. He can be really good in a limited role like replacing GP2. He can defend one on one on any player in the league, be Excellent at the dunker spot and score 1 or 2 corner 3s a game.

im probably late to the party... I thing Kuminga's potential problems with attitude are related to the warriors staff and kerr at least as much as kuminga. I heard that kerr played kuminga less because of his experience overplaying wiseman. If that was true, that was a bad decision. Kuminga is a different animal. I feel he should have been played hard and scolded and sat down, calmed down and then reinserted into game, and put into difficult situations again and again. Sat down, talked to, but the staff shouldnt hold a grudge. Use the game as a learning experience with kuminga. My sense is he would have steped up his game quickly this way. He just wants to be dominant. There is more than one way to skin a cat, and they were skinin this cat wrong last year. By the way, they arent coaching wiseman up correctly. if the staff dont watch it , they are going to really waste this rare second pick. wiseman is so raw, the staff better step back to REAL basic stuff like stance, how and when to jump, where to look, etc. Wisemans athletic/basketball brain is a mess. He needs a complete overhaul. ahhh, I mean we could have gotten lemelo or even taupin.

Alchemy 08-27-22 Saturday Holmgreen/Jabari Smith :   Sam Bowie/Michael Jordan? The PatBev trade was a good one for the Lakers but you have to pity the Buss family. They have a sword of Damocles hanging over their heads with two years remaining to take advantage of LeBron’s presence. They only have 13 players under contract with no young players that seem capable of breaking out. I can’t imagine what free agents they plan to acquire to fill out that mess.  Re: your ‘love of the game’ rule: think about the number of great players who had late growth spurts. David Robinson, KD, Dennis Rodman, Jeremy Lin! Michael Jordan. They played out of enthusiasm for the game, then found themselves taller than the other guys.

No denying he has been really good, there is something about him that rubs me the wrong way. An arrogance that concerns me particularly with personnel decisions.

Athletic Alchemy

Clearly needs to pull in a Superbowl but beyond that he's checked every good HC box. His resume without the name shanahan on is still better than the vast majority of NFL coaches.

Logan Stump-Vernon

What does shanny have to man? Take the worst roster in the NFL and make one of the best in 3/4 years? Check. Make the final 4 whenever you have a healthy QB? Check. All his players love him and will lay it in the line for him? Check

Imagine a backcourt of 2015 + 2022 Curries

Stevie Ray

Oh and By the way, thats some backup QB hairline that Trey Lance has got.

2022 Steph is better than 2015 Steph, 2022 Warriors better, end of conversation

I'll take Obi for JoKu.

hey Stevie, really dug your pod with Alch! i have no doubt he will, watching kuminga play shows me all i need to know. he isn't some pampered personality and huffs and puffs for no reason. he has an extremely blue collar game when you watch him play (always cutting, giving 110% on defense). the future is bright for him

Johnny Marko

I kinda love it too Hope he hears the noise and amps up the workouts the next 4 weeks

Stevie Ray

i like arrogance from kuminga, think about where he came from. he had nothing handed to him and took everything he has by force. it may rub some people the wrong way but there have been plenty of star athletes with an "attitude" problem. this whole thing is being blown out of proportion imo
