That Warriors move is a strange fit, Losing Iggy is a big deal
I agree. IDK how this makes the Warriors better. Iggy was certainly aging, but he was one of their glue guys and vet leader. Probably their best defender, along with Klay. Gave them a lot of flexibility.
Now they’ve got 3 guards. Klay can probably play some 3, but that still means you’ve got 2 guys that can be picked on defensively in Steph and DLO. It’s much harder to hide 2 subpar defenders. Steph is a smart team defender, but he’s not great individually. Despite what the advanced stats say, I believe Russell is worse.
And I’m still not sold that DLO has transitioned into some all star caliber player. I still feel he’s a streak shooter. Let’s see if he can continue to play like he did last season.
All I know is the Warriors got worse swapping KD for DLO all while losing Iggy. Let’s not forget Klay won’t be back til 2020.
