00:00Got it! Oh, the net barely even moved. Curry with a pure shot from the left corner.
00:07And he claps and pumps his fist. He knows it's not over. But that was a big time bucket by number 30.
00:14Yay!
00:15Now, back to Stiney and Guru on 95.7 The Game.
00:20I don't appreciate that, because it makes me sound condescending.
00:23And the fact of the matter is, I just spent 45 minutes talking about, that's a big win.
00:28It's a big win. Like a legitimate win. Seriously.
00:34I know everything.
00:35I know you do, Steph.
00:36The Chef!
00:37And I know, and I understand your frustration with a lot of people other than me.
00:44Let me tell you something about Minnesota.
00:46Y'all quit on The Chef.
00:48Look at you smile with your glasses. Please. Let me tell you something about Minnesota. I know we're not there.
00:53Yeah, sure.
00:54I just watched Purple Rain over the weekend. Great movie. Shout out Apollonian.
00:58Listen, Evan, do you really think he watched it this weekend?
01:01Oh my!
01:02I don't.
01:03I'm gonna have my son call. He's a big Michael Jackson fan.
01:06I had to tell him about Prince, and we put on the show.
01:09Call him. Get him on.
01:11No, I'm serious, because I'm tired of you guys trying to make it seem like I lie or fib.
01:17If I have my son call and say we watched Purple Rain, you gotta give me something.
01:24Yeah, then I'll know you will have gotten to him.
01:27Evan, I hope you believe me, because people keep saying you're turning it against me.
01:32Anyway, Purple Rain.
01:33No, Minnesota. They swept the Warriors last year. Can I tell you why?
01:37We had no answer for Carl Anthony Towns.
01:40Stony, if you guys want to basketball torture me, just have me watch a Julius Randall play.
01:45Obviously, he's got talent. He's in the NBA.
01:48Stony, they swapped the wrong...
01:51I'm telling you, man. He doesn't fit with what they're trying to do.
01:55It's a wrap!
01:56They're over .500. I get it, but Finch, he might have...
01:59Stony, he just stylistically, Cat was perfect for him.
02:03Is Finch the GM?
02:05No, I feel bad for Finch.
02:08Don't feel bad for Finch.
02:09He's got power.
02:10Don't feel bad for him. He's tough as nails. He doesn't take sympathy.
02:16But this should have been the year where they had continuity with Cat.
02:19They don't have continuity.
02:20They don't have continuity.
02:21So he's doing the best he can.
02:24I would have tried to veto that deal if I were him.
02:27Well, unlike the Warriors, they have a structure.
02:30They have a structure in Minnesota.
02:32This man's ready for Cobbs.
02:34That's pretty good.
02:35Stony, I'm going to have my son call before the show's over.
02:38He doesn't lie. His mom taught him.
02:40This is the one he hates to talk about.
02:42Yeah, the introvert.
02:43Good luck with that.
02:44Speaking of, he's working on a big thing next Monday, right?
02:48Are you comfortable sharing that with our listeners?
02:50Martin Luther King Day.
02:52You guys got a three-hour show.
02:55I don't know what it does to me.
02:59I won't be here.
03:00That may be the first time we've had a show preempted ever.
03:04I don't know why I'm giddy over that.
03:07It's like the two white guys on MLK Day.
03:09Well, I'll tell you what.
03:10Italian.
03:11I'll tell you what.
03:13Back in the day, about eight, nine years ago,
03:16when we were the A's flagship.
03:19Remember how much you loved those shows, those days?
03:24Because we oftentimes didn't have a show on Thursdays
03:27because that would be when the A's played at 1235,
03:31and we would get preempted.
03:33I was on weekends then, Stony.
03:35Yeah.
03:36Anyway.
03:37Yeah, they miss cat.
03:39That's all I'm going to say.
03:40Yeah.
03:41That's all.
03:42Back to the Warriors.
03:43I can keep going if you want.
03:45I'm going to have my phone call in.
03:47Can you jump a guy if a guy needs jumping?
03:49I think you know that.
03:51Let's go to KC in San Jose.
03:53I'm ready.
03:54Hey, KC.
03:55How you doing?
03:56What do you think of that win last night?
03:57What's up?
03:58What's up, fellas?
03:59I have to disagree with you, Stony.
04:01I know you said it's a good win.
04:02I know you said the West is close.
04:04All these wins matter, but let's take a look at it.
04:06They gave up a 22-point lead.
04:09They lost every quarter after that.
04:11This is just not a good team.
04:13Even in a tough, greedy win, I don't think you can look at the positives and say,
04:18oh, you know, they have some hope to maybe make a run.
04:21It looks like something drastic needs to happen, and I know this has been proposed,
04:26but I think it's time to let Kerr go.
04:28Look what's happened with the Kings.
04:30I think they need something fresh up top.
04:32I think they need a new voice as a leader, and I think that, unfortunately,
04:36might not be the move right now, but maybe at the end of the season you take a look at that.
04:39Well, let me throw this at you, Casey.
04:41Yeah, he didn't need me to jump in.
04:43He was respectful.
04:44If this is who they are and they play more games like this in the future,
04:50do you think they can jump up to 7 or 6?
04:55I would say so, but they haven't been able to hold these leads.
04:59I mean, a 22-point lead in the first quarter, you have your foot on their neck.
05:05You're supposed to finish the game, and this end-of-game management,
05:09you got some kind of wacky moves by Kerr at the end calling that timeout.
05:13You had GP taking free throws.
05:16You had that Moody out of bounds.
05:18It just doesn't seem like this is a team that can actually win in serious games when it matters.
05:22Yeah, listen, good stuff, Casey.
05:25I appreciate it.
05:27But I think they've let us know the goal is either with a move or without a move.
05:33Can we get a series?
05:36To me, they've made that crystal clear.
05:40No doubt.
05:41And, Casey, my gosh, a win is a win.
05:44Boston just lost to Toronto.
05:46Good God.
05:47So you would have felt better had they won by 11.
05:49They were up early.
05:50NBA, what did you tell me?
05:51Good, it's a game of runs, but I'm just thinking, I'm being real.
05:55Casey is already there in a win.
05:57Had they lost that, I don't think I would have been able to give you much.
06:00I just would have been down.
06:02And that game would have been a microcosm of this season to me.
06:06But, man, you've got to feel okay.
06:08But the call for Kerr's head, it's bigger than last night.
06:12I mean, he's probably wanted that change for a minute.
06:14And the Kings, they won seven in a row, Stony.
06:17They just lost.
06:18We'll see how they bounce back tonight with a tough game.
06:21Who did they play?
06:22I've got to double-check.
06:23It's a tough game.
06:24Hold on.
06:25I've got it right here.
06:26Here we go.
06:27No.
06:28Let me guess.
06:29Just hold on, Stony.
06:30Hold on.
06:31They got the Rockets.
06:32They got the Rockets.
06:33Thanks, Badone.
06:34Badone.
06:35The Rockets coming out to play.
06:38Listen, when you're up 20 in the first quarter on the road,
06:44it's hard to win that game by 25.
06:47Right, but I've got to.
06:49They're going to come back.
06:50It's going to be a close game.
06:52And here's where, okay, did it get closer?
06:54Yes.
06:55But you're playing without Green and Kaminga.
06:59You just were on the road.
07:01You just had a four-game road trip against what?
07:04Three playoff, maybe three playoff teams.
07:07Minnesota, Detroit, and Indiana.
07:09And I understand they're mid-pack playoff teams.
07:12Detroit's the flavor of the month right now, and you beat them.
07:14Yeah, you went in there and beat them.
07:17Let's go to Flea in Oakland.
07:19What's up, Flea?
07:20How you doing, my man?
07:22What's up, Gordon, Stony?
07:24Hey, hey.
07:25We've got three problems.
07:26We've got three problems, man.
07:28One of the problems is, what are we going to do with Draymond?
07:32Like, seriously, what are we going to do?
07:34Santos is hustling.
07:35Santos is just good energy.
07:38He's not yelling at and screaming,
07:40and every time somebody jumps over his back,
07:43he's not screaming at the refs.
07:45Then what are we going to do about Buddy Hill?
07:47When he gives us 18 points, we win.
07:50So if the next game he scores five, that's a loss.
07:52If the next game he scores six, that's a loss.
07:56TJ, can he give us 15 or at least 10 or 12 rebounds per night
08:01and not two one night and two points,
08:04and he got a DMP one game because he only plays basically four minutes?
08:08So I love that we got a win last night, but we have a bigger issue.
08:13What are we going to do with Draymond and Buddy Hill
08:16not being consistent on a nightly basis,
08:19giving us at least 16 to 14 per game?
08:24Because we're going to have a problem with Draymond
08:26because his attitude, we can't handle that.
08:28We can't take that no more.
08:29Hey, when did you get here about Dray?
08:31Was it last night, or had you been feeling this way real quick?
08:34Because I'm with you, man.
08:35I'm like, man, the ball was popping.
08:37Not hating on Dray, but when did you get there?
08:40Okay, what did Draymond do in the Boston series?
08:44I get you. He had to come off the bench.
08:46Yeah, he was less effective than he had been in the past, for sure.
08:52Let's start from the Boston series to 2025.
08:55What have we done since that series?
08:58And Draymond Green punched the guy, got suspended,
09:03yelled at players, argued, did everything under the sun.
09:06We haven't been successful with Draymond since the Boston series.
09:10So it's time for him to go.
09:12We was happy last night.
09:13Guys got along.
09:14Wasn't nobody being yelled at.
09:16The rest wasn't yelled at.
09:17Hey, it's time to trade Draymond, I feel.
09:20Appreciate the call, Flea.
09:22Curry would never. Here we go.
09:24I disagree.
09:25You think so, Stan?
09:27Yeah, I disagree.
09:29I mean, what I'm also hearing Curry say is, in Mike, we trust.
09:35So if a deal is out there for anybody that they think is going to make them better,
09:41I think they do it at this point.
09:43And, I don't know, am I making too big of a deal out of it, Warrior fans?
09:48I do think there is something about younger guys maybe play a little bit freer
09:53without Draymond Green.
09:55They play a little bit differently.
09:57I mean, it was a week ago that Evan and I were on,
10:01and we were saying it looks like sometimes they play like they're walking on eggshells.
10:04No doubt about it.
10:05And whose fault is that?
10:07Well, it's their fault because they're the players.
10:09But maybe Draymond Green does set up a dynamic that just makes it a little more
10:14difficult than it should be.
10:17I don't know.
10:18I think there's something there.
10:20I do know that the Warriors are a lot bigger than just Draymond Green.
10:25And, you know, there's only one player on this team you can't move,
10:31and that's Steph Curry.
10:34But I don't put Draymond in Steph's category anymore.
10:37What if I told you and Flea and Evan and the rest of the gang,
10:40I'm worried about Draymond.
10:41Like, I'm watching this injury study.
10:43There were a couple years back he had the same disc injury,
10:46and he missed like 30 games.
10:48So I'm not going there.
10:49But he hadn't been doing podcasts.
10:52It's been real quiet on the Draymond front.
10:54But I thought that would be a death sentence to the team.
10:57And now I'm like, you know what?
10:59They might have some guys that it's not a death sentence.
11:02And there we go.
11:03We've known for years now that without Draymond Green,
11:07it's not a death sentence.
11:09Well, last year, Stony, I got to be real.
11:11I'm talking to myself here.
11:12There were a lot of people, 50 included,
11:14saying had he been available for those 25.
11:17And they're wrong.
11:18They were dead wrong.
11:19Well, we don't know that.
11:21Why aren't they a 55-win team now?
11:23He's been playing.
11:25What I'm saying is, like, he's not indispensable.
11:32I don't want to say that he is.
11:34And I'm not saying you should trade him.
11:35That's not what I'm saying.
11:36But what I'm saying is, and we all know,
11:39over the course of the last couple of years, he's declining.
11:43And we talk about how much it's worth right now.
11:48But, like, if the Warriors were to announce that Draymond Green
11:54is going to miss the next three weeks until the trade deadline,
11:56it's like, I'm not saying, well, now they have an excuse to be bad.
12:01Like Jonathan Kamingis.
12:02The hell with that.
12:03I'm with you there.
12:04The hell with that.
12:05I mean, I'm not saying it would be good for the team.
12:08But I'm not – don't sell me that this team is dead in the water
12:13if they don't have Draymond Green.
