“Bad teams do that” – Draymond Green makes feelings known on Warriors not ‘auctioning’ young core to maximize Steph Curry’s prime years

The Golden State Warrior went from being one of the best teams in the Western Conference to fighting for a place in the NBA Play-In Tournament. With Steph Curry and Draymond Green approaching the twilight years of their careers, some might wonder if Golden State will try to maximize the years they have left in exchange for their young core.

However, Draymond told the media last Thursday, after their 107-104 victory against the Detroit Pistons, that they have no intention of negotiating Golden State’s future for their own benefit.

“The beautiful thing about being in the space we’re in is that Steve Kerr, Steph Curry and I don’t agree with mortgaging the future of this organization, saying let’s go for it right now,” Green said. “Bad teams do that. Bad organizations do that. We’re neither.”

While this may be a selfless decision by the Warriors organization, their veterans desperately need help. If you look at Steph Curry’s scoring numbers, they aren’t all that bad.

However, they are a little less efficient compared to what we are used to. Curry scores 22.6 points per game this season, 3.8 fewer points compared to last season.

Do the Warriors need help for Steph Curry?

Steph Curry and Draymond Green are the only players on the roster of the original Golden State Warriors dynasty established in the early 2010s. Before the new faces came along, they managed to win four championships together. However, with the team apparently still relying on its two veterans, will it be enough to lead Golden State back to glory?

Curry is no longer producing the same numbers he used to on the court. While his numbers remain solid and close to his usual averages, there is a notable decline in his efficiency. However, Curry is still the best player on the team.

However, seeing how the Warriors sit in 11th place in the Western Conference with a 19-19 record, it’s clear that Curry needs help to lead the team back to glory. While Draymond Green expressed that they have no intentions of changing their young core, they could consider securing another player who can complement Steph’s game and provide similar numbers to boost the team.
