Podcast cover

The TK Show: A Show about sports in the Bay Area

Warriors General Manager Mike Dunleavy discusses the team's current challenges, particularly the impact of key player injuries on their "all-in" roster construction. He acknowledges the difficulty of sustaining competitiveness without Steph Curry, Jimmy Butler, and Kristaps Porzingis, and how this situation reinforces the value of holding onto future draft picks. Dunleavy defends the Kristaps Porzingis trade, stating that the medical evaluation at the time was satisfactory, while also noting that there is pressure to evaluate how Porzingis fits with the team, given his limited playing time. He also touches on Draymond Green's continued importance and leadership, and the extension of Guisantos, emphasizing the organization's commitment to player development and solid role players.
