After days of hope and optimism on a potential Giannis Antetokounmpo trade, the Golden State Warriors have ended up with veteran center Kristaps Porzingis in a deal that sends Jonathan Kuminga and Buddy Hield to the Atlanta Hawks. Did the Warriors punt on their season with this underwhelming move, or is there still another move in play before Thursday's deadline?

With the Golden State Warriors pursuing a blockbuster trade for Giannis Antetokounmpo, Draymond Green’s future hangs in the balance after nearly 14 years at the franchise. Plus, what the Sacramento Kings’ acquisition of Deandre Hunter on Saturday means for Jonathan Kuminga’s destiny before the trade deadline.

Giannis Antetokounmpo has requested a trade (put in friendlier terms) -- do the Warriors have what it takes to get a deal done with the Milwaukee Bucks for the superstar forward? What does Golden State's best offer actually look like, and would they truly have enough left over to compete for a championship as soon as this season?

The Golden State Warriors showed their blueprint to success in life without Jimmy Butler, putting up an impressive defensive display in a 111-85 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Sunday. The reality remains that the Warriors are unlikely to do anything meaningful this season in the wake of Butler's injury, but could a blockbuster Giannis Antetokounmpo trade completely change that landscape?

With Jimmy Butler's season-ending injury putting Golden State's campaign into ruins, what can they possibly do before the trade deadline to salvage another year of Stephen Curry's prime? Stevie joins me on this episode to discuss all the possibilities, including deals with the Mavericks, Nets, Kings, Pelicans, Jazz and more!

De'Anthony Melton continues to go from strength-to-strength since his return from injury, dropping a season-high (and team-high) 24 points in Saturday night's win over the Charlotte Hornets. But is the veteran guard also giving Mike Dunleavy Jr. and the Warriors front office some headaches as they explore Jonathan Kuminga trades leading into next month's deadline?

Jonathan Kuminga is now officially trade eligible, meaning a massive Golden State Warriors trade could come at any moment. Who do the Warriors target though, and how far should they be willing to go to sacrifice the future for a win-now move? Stevie joins me to discuss all the potential targets, including more chatter on Michael Porter Jr., Anthony Davis and some other names we haven't thrown up in recent weeks!

Stephen Curry and Jimmy Butler each went for 30 points on Sunday night against the Atlanta Hawks, but the Warriors still lacked the firepower in a 124-111 loss to the Hawks at Chase Center. The lack of a genuine and consistent third scorer was once again glaringly exposed, leaving the Warriors needing to make an imminent trade for Michael Porter Jr. after the weekend's rumors.

The Golden State Warriors recorded their eighth win in the past 11 games on Friday night against the Sacramento Kings, with their bench, led by De’Anthony Melton and Al Horford, continuing to look like a major strength. Plus, more on Michael Porter Jr. trade chatter after Draymond Green's podcast comments certainly caused a stir on social media.

The Golden State Warriors responded from Friday's blowout loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder with a win over the Utah Jazz, having turned things around after Draymond Green's ejection late in the first-half. Green's role on the team continues to be a talking point, and now even more so is the idea of moving the franchise legend in a blockbuster trade for 10x All-Star Anthony Davis.

The Golden State Warriors have bounced back from Sunday's disastrous loss to the Toronto Raptors, overcoming a slow start in Brooklyn to claim a 120-107 against the Nets at Barclays Center. Stephen Curry and Jimmy Butler did their thing with 48 combined points, but it was the Warrior bench that got the job done as Steve Kerr utilized 13 players on the second night of a back-to-back.

The Golden State Warriors led by seven with less than two minutes to play against the Toronto Raptors on Sunday, only to fall by 14 in a gut-wrenching overtime loss. Turnovers again proved costly as the Warriors quite literally threw away another game, while Steve Kerr's rotations and the absence of Trayce Jackson-Davis also proved a big talking point from a 141-117 defeat that snaps a three-game winning streak.

The Golden State Warriors have recorded one of their more impressive wins of the season over the Orlando Magic, but it's been overshadowed by a fiery exchange between Draymond Green and Steve Kerr that saw the veteran forward head to the locker room and not return to the game. While both Kerr and Green have both tried to downplay the incident, the bigger problem might be that the Warriors continue to look better without their defensive leader on the floor.
