Letourneau definitely has front office sources (and is a bit of a shill imo) but I also didn't read the word "source" in this article so maybe he's just filling the All-Star break content void.

Locked On Warriors podcast Feb. 18 episode, 26:00 mark. Reference to Dieter Kurtenbach having inside source that Wiseman will play on March 1. I can't find it mentioned anywhere else so...

How come everyone around here didn't come down on Monty Williams when Steph's minutes got up there (he ended up playing 36)? Luckily Steph didn't overexert himself on the defensive end :)

I'm pretty sure it's every basketball playing child's dream to grow up and one day have their head (lovingly?) stroked by MJ.

I have it on good authority that the locker room still smells like champagne.

Isn't that Magic rubbing Steph's head? It would make sense too since Magic was introduced right after Steph in the presentation so they were standing next to each other.

Edit: It was actually MJ πŸ˜‰

OT: My pages all started opening with only base level comments, all replies hidden behind "# replies". I prefer to have replies opened, anybody know how to change that setting?

Allen Iverson said Steph is the reason he has NBA League Pass. Damn!

Also, why TF doesn't the NBA give AI a free subscription?!?!

Headline error. Should read, "With Everyone Sucking, Steph Starts Chucking." Please correct at earliest opportunity.

I think the NBA should be grateful on Steph saving the All Star Weekend and i just realized that Curry did this in front everyone, i mean every living NBA legend.

The 3's were amazing. But I would like to have seen a replay of that skyscraper 2-point floater. That shot was ridiculous as well.

Goofus doesn’t usually quote himself (or refer to himself in the 3rd person), but this comment in the game thread at halftime will prove prescient:

β€œIf tonight begins a Steph tear like the one he went on in the final quarter of last season, I’m here for it…and winning the ASG MVP would be a good way to start a late-season MVP run.

Hell, bookmark this prediction: Steph will win the MVP.”

This year seems a bit tricky to win the title with Dray's injury and Klay's rust (relative to Klay standards), but next year might be our best shot imo. A healthier Klay, post-injury Draymond, 2nd year Kuminga and Moody, 3rd year Wiseman and 4th year Poole. I know we'll probably lose important depth in OPJ (I think we'll retain DLee, GP2 and Loon), but I also see us being a tier 2 destination in FA (just behind the 2 LA teams and maybe Miami and Brooklyn) so we should be able to get reasonable replacements (Gary Harris/Rubio/Ingles would all be varying degrees of nice).
