Looking at that list of top HWFL does highlight how subjective the criteria are and how much times change. I think if we voted on all of those guys at once, the results would be very different.
Thanks all of you who are still in here for staying in the DNHQ gym and helping me work on my fan game this off season. It would have been easy to rest on last seasons monu-Mental post Championship high and come back out of shape for preseason. But that's not The Warriors Way.
I'm working on getting my OG Thread ❤️ % up around the 90% mark (currently around 60%). The creators don't get enough credit and let's face it, it's the easiest ❤️ to make.
My post game needs a bit of work; more consistent and efficient takes, add in some OT fadeaways, and try and kick it out to open up for and get others involved.
Some people have speculated on whether certain players would make HWFL. Every poll is a moment in time, but we have already polled (I'll let you guess where this is publicly available): "everyone from We Believe" and KD and the results are not exactly what people guessed.
(spoiler alert in case you want to guess or stay unspoiled)
I think we need to get absurdly ahead of this Warrior For Life thing for the sake of offseason fun. So I'm starting up the Future Warrior For Life betting pool. Now, we know that the Core Four are locks. But which of the following less proven players is most likely to earn future WFL status from the voters? Place your bets or critique my oddsmaking:
Nico lol Mannion 10000-1, Justinian Jessup 1000-1,, Mac McLung 100-1, Santos 85-1, Patrick Baldwin 75-1, Rollins 75-1, JaMaychal Green 50-1, Moody 40-1, Donte 15-1, Wiseman 15-1, Kuminga 10-1, Poole 5-1.
Caeser's is taking the bets. (The casino. Not the salad.)
Parlay!! Kevin Durant, if he is never in a Dub uniform again, 10-1. (If he had never played for another team he'd be a lock). If he perish the thought ever is in a Dub uniform again --- then what?
Looking at basketball-reference, the J Rich for Brandan Wright trade would have been defensible if Wright could have stayed healthy but he couldn't, at least not for the Warriors. It was pretty much a repeat of the Erick Dampier story.

One visit to the playoffs in 18 years. Ouuuccchhhh.
It may just be the OG Raider fan in me but I’ve always been of the belief “Once a Raider always a Raider”!
Same thing applies for the Dubs!

Any other feedback let me know.
Looking forward to my Sophomore Season!

I have a feeling damn near everyone from that We Believe squad will make WFL...even Beans!
I think Davis’ days of flying through the air like he did against AK47 are over. He’s more of a Land Baron these days.

Woohoo! I redeemed myself after the Damion Lee fiasco! ;D
Congrats to JTA and Baron!!
