Silver lining just hit me

[msgkings322]

For real, just thought of this

KD out for any length of time, season ends without a title.

Now he can do it...ONE MORE YEAR...redemption....payback. Then go.

The downside to your silver lining is that keeping KD might cost you Klay. Even for 1 year.

...then in one year's time you have only Steph and the option to re-sign Green.

Funny, I thought your silver lining was going to be that KD's injury allows Steph to re-emerge as the MVP candidate he has always been capable of being, just lurking in Durant's shadow the past two years.

Not a chance. They would gladly pay the tax

Not really no

Yeah no shit

The silver lining is losing the title this year means it is possible to win it next year?

Well shit, who knew that being a twolves fan always had such a bright outlook.

Look up what "silver lining" means. Only have those when something shitty happens

Have you seen the Timberwolves history? They are the embodiment of shitty things happening. Mostly self inflicted.

One problem with your theory....

It was never the Warriors that needed KD to win a title. They already won a couple without him.

I'm not getting into this again. And they only won one without him, when their Finals opponent was pretty depleted

There is a better chance that KD doesn't leave if the injury keeps him sidelined the rest of the postseason imo

But if the Warriors win a title with him on the bench. He is gone 100%.

He is a luxury.

But a necessity to win titles, in today's NBA

I don't think so, they would just need a better bench than they have know. Other than resigning Klay that would be their #1 focus though is building that bench.

Oh you mean next year...yes obviously KD is probably leaving. They re-up Klay, and hopefully Boogie, and yes try to get some bench depth

That team will be in the mix but no longer favored and to me does not win another

Klay would look damn good in Celtics Green.

Of course they would.

If recent reports are to be believed though, Klay might actually look at other options if the Warriors brought KD back, and/or prioritized KD over him.

Luckily they aren't to be believed. Also KD isn't coming back

I agree.

No KD next year, but Klay will stay.
