Yeah, I thought so too. I'd think they'd want the threat that Klay will be back.

On the other hand, maybe they don't want to have to deal with "When will Klay be back?" questions all season long?

I guess they could always still bring him back if they feel he's ready at some point.

That, and he's aiming for that underdog classification, "nobody thinks we can do it"....

Dude is dating that chick from Spiderman Homecoming.

I'm mildly surprised.

Pretty girl.

But, kinda basic in comparison to some of THOTS he's smashed over the years.

I guess beauty is only skin deep and he's met his quota on pretty girls with shit for brains.

Funny, when you mentioned Spiderman Homcoming, I thought you were talking about Zendaya. I don't even remember this girl from the movie?

It's just about as much managing fan expectations too. There's a few different scenarios at play here:

1) If the Warriors absolutely suck all year, then there's no pressure for Klay to come back at all. Relatively few questions will be raised about this issue and Warriors will punt the year.

2) If the Warriors are mediocre, say around .500 or slightly below that, do questions/expectations start to arise around Klay coming back? Probably. Klay could potentially put them over the top to a big playoff push and a strong finish.

3) If the Warriors for some reason excel (highly unlikely) and they want Klay back to make a real push for a championship.

Two out of those three situations the team, Kerr, Players are going to be inundated with questions about Klay all year. Better to hedge those expectations early.

i dunno...maybe i am underestimating the healing power of instagram models and thc vaping oil

CBD oil is amazing. My buddy also swears by the cream. He said he had a major hip issue and used it and it got him right. He's been a career athlete too so he's had his share of major injuries.

She was his date for the dance.

Vulture * Michael Keaton* played her father.

KCP would finally show some value...

Gotta say I was 100% on the KCP hype train a few years ago. Thought he was going to turn into a potentially more dynamic Danny Green.

I was happy when they initially got him, as their options were slim and he basically fell into their laps. He has a problematic gap between the ears...

Well, there's recency bias and then there's not being relevant during current viewers entire lives.
Ummmmm

Are you referring to Boston?

They went to the finals 6 times in my lifetime.

That's pretty relevant.

As for the millennials, they probably think the Bulls fall into that category and that Jordan is just a clothing line.

Both your fanbases has reason to TRY to devalue the others accomplishments.

Doesn't change the fact that they have the most chips and you guys are #2 on the list.
