Bob Myers Articles - Page 3

What the Golden State Warriors looking like heading into the 2023-24 season relies greatly on what Bob Myers decides to do this offseason. The Warriors’ general manager and president of basketball operations has been directly responsible for the dynasty this organization has formed through the years and after a disappointing exit from the postseason this […]

The Golden State Warriors had already drafted Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson prior to Bob Myers becoming the general manager of the team in 2012. But as soon as Myers took control of the front office, the Warriors became a dynasty.  The former NBA agent controlled the 2012 NBA Draft for the Warriors, a night […]

In the NBA, dynasties never last forever and it appears as if the Golden State Warriors have arrived at a crossroads in terms of what next season will look like. Following their second round loss in the NBA Playoffs against the Los Angeles Lakers, it’s likely there will be major roster changes as well as […]

The Golden State Warriors have some major decisions to make this offseason regarding key personnel. Longtime General Manager Bob Myers is a part of that list. The Washington Wizards, who parted ways with their GM Tommy Sheppard shortly after their season ended, are reportedly waiting on the conclusion of the Myers-Warriors negotiations, according to NBA […]

The Golden State Warriors may have already fallen this season, but you can be sure that the curtain has not been drawn on this dynasty just yet. It was a forgettable campaign for the defending champs, no doubt, but they now head to the offseason with a lot of optimism for what they expect to […]

The Golden State Warriors are at a real disadvantage right now against the Sacramento Kings in their NBA Playoffs first-round series. This is after the Kings pulled off another very impressive victory on Tuesday to secure a 2-0 series advantage against the defending champs. To make matters worse, the NBA has decided to slap Draymond […]

Andrew Wiggins’ extended absence from the Golden State Warriors is currently shrouded by a lot of mystery. The one-time All-Star has not played a single minute for the Dubs since February 13th due to personal reasons, and he currently remains without a timeline to return. As it turns out, Wiggins not returning this season has […]

The Golden State Warriors didn’t just swallow hard and complete the trade for Gary Payton II despite his uncertain availability over the season’s remainder because they so sorely need the defensive disruptiveness and overall versatility he provides when healthy. As Bob Myers told reporters on Monday, the front office also considered what it would mean […]

Gary Payton II is officially a member of the Golden State Warriors once again. Just because the controversial trade that brought him back to the Bay has finally been completed, though, doesn’t mean Payton will soon be on the floor to help the defending champions rise up the stacked Western Conference standings over the stretch […]

There’s been so much talk about how long this current Golden State Warriors core can remain intact and competing for titles and not enough talk about the man behind the scenes. Longtime Warriors President and General Manager Bob Myers will have his contract run out by the end of the season. What many would think […]

The Golden State Warriors are at a crossroads as a franchise. Not only will they soon have to decide soon just how much longer they would straddle the line between contending and player development, they will also have to deal with a potential front-office overhaul. The contract of Bob Myers – the Warriors’ longtime general […]

While the Golden State Warriors continue to play inconsistently this 2022-23 season, general manager Bob Myers is not worried about it. After all, he knows very well what the team is capable of. Speaking on a pregame live show before their showdown with the Detroit Pistons last Wednesday, Myers expressed his belief that Stephen Curry […]

The Golden State Warriors have been the model of success in the NBA for the past several years, and that is largely due to general manager Bob Myers. However, his future with the team may not be 100 percent secure. Myers is currently in the final year of his contract, which is set to expire […]

The Golden State Warriors’ historic loss to LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers during the 2016 NBA Finals is a memory that will forever stick with Dubs fans whether they like it or not. This has been the case for Warriors general manager Bob Myers, but for his part, the high-ranking team executive continues to […]

The Golden State Warriors weren’t always a dynasty. Before his team won the first of an incredible four titles in eight seasons, Bob Myers needed to help Golden State evolve from plucky playoff upstart to a true championship threat. How’d he do it? Capitalizing on the Warriors’ first playoff berth in five years by pushing […]

The last time we saw DeMarcus Cousins make a significant impact in the league was during his spell with the Golden State Warriors during the 2018-19 season. Cousins was still able to remain in the league up until last season, but unfortunately for him, the former four-time All-Star was not able to find a new […]

Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr has already made it clear that he intends to give more minutes to guys like Ty Jerome and Anthony Lamb. This only means that there’s going to be less playing time for the Dubs’ younger players, particularly James Wiseman and Jonathan Kuminga. Warriors general manager Bob Myers is […]

There’s no denying the Golden State Warriors’ current level of play leaves them well short of earning the status as a top-tier title contender. As his 4-6 team continues searching for answers with the holidays fast approaching, though, Golden State president of basketball operations Bob Myers is hardly pushing the panic button. In fact, he’s […]

Jonathan Kuminga and Anthony Lamb served as de facto backup centers in Monday night’s much-needed victory over the Sacramento Kings, the biggest departure among the Golden State Warriors’ highly anticipated rotation changes following a winless five-game road trip. Steve Kerr quickly deviated from his pre-planned bench lineups after the reserves coughed up another early lead, […]

The Golden State Warriors are hoping to keep the good times rolling heading into the 2022-23 season. The Draymond Green/Jordan Poole incident may have ruffled some feathers, but it looks like it’s in the rearview mirror for the most part. The Warriors committed to their current core by extending Jordan Poole and Andrew Wiggins right […]

Bob Myers is clearly a huge Stephen Curry fan. I mean, why wouldn’t he be? After all, Steph has made him look good as the Golden State Warriors general manager for all these years. On Tuesday, Myers joined the broadcast for the Dubs’ preseason matchup against the Portland Trail Blazers. When it was time to […]

Stephen Curry had just finished answering yet another question about Draymond Green “forcefully striking” Jordan Poole at practice 24 hours earlier. Then the four-time MVP let out a long sigh, tapped his fingers on the podium and surveyed the media room at Chase Center, sensing it was time to end Wednesday’s interview on terms set […]

Golden State Warriors president of basketball operations addressed the media on Thursday, confirming reports that Draymond Green “struck” Jordan Poole during a practice altercation 24 hours earlier. Initial reporting on the incident indicated the Warriors were considering a suspension of Green. Myers clarified any discipline against him will be handled internally, also noting that he […]

It’s safe to say Bob Myers and the front office wish they’d convened with Jordan Poole’s representatives before the Golden State Warriors embarked on their preseason trip to Japan. Two days before the defending champions tipped off training camp on September 24th, the normally evasive Myers shed real light on the status of Poole’s potential […]

The Golden State Warriors franchise is the most successful in the past decade, having won four championships on the back of the famous core led by Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green. Despite the trio being past their 30s, they still went on to win the 2022 NBA championship, thanks in no small part […]

The Golden State Warriors didn’t have much spending flexibility this summer. The team that just set an NBA record for total payroll, in fact, lost a bidding war for all-world defender Gary Payton II in free agency, wary of going even deeper into luxury tax territory. But just because the Warriors’ team-building resources were limited […]

The summer came and went with some of Jordan Poole’s contemporaries getting the type of massive payday he definitely deserves. As the deadline for rookie contract extensions quickly approaches, though, there’s still no indication the Golden State Warriors will lock Poole up long-term before he hits restricted free agency. General manager Bob Myers addressed the […]

The Golden State Warriors will have plenty of roster decisions to make in the upcoming months, with the likes of Andre Wiggins, Jordan Poole and Draymond Green due for new contracts soon. However with their salary already at an astronomical level, it is worth wondering whether they’ll try to move Green in the future. That […]

Golden State Warriors president Bob Myers wants Andre Iguodala back, and for good reasons. While Iguodala’s production has dipped as he continues to age, there are things he brings to the Warriors that others just couldn’t do. That is why he remains an indispensable piece for the organization. Speaking with Tim Kawakami of The Athletic, […]

The Golden State Warriors are ready to run it back after making one last marginal move in free agency. As the 2022-23 season dawns, though, Bob Myers still finds it tough to fathom the once-struggling Warriors will be defending another championship. “We kept most of it together, but we have to stay healthy,” he said, […]

The Golden State Warriors quickly popped as a potential landing spot for Kevin Durant amid his trade request from the Brooklyn Nets. Durant, of course, won a pair of titles with Golden State during his initial stint with the team, and it sounds like he would be open to rejoining the Warriors to try to […]

The Golden State Warriors seem set for the next couple of seasons. With Stephen Curry leading a roster filled with established veterans and promising youth, the Dubs are sitting pretty with a recent title already in their trophy case. But that doesn’t mean that the Warriors front office is resting on its laurels. They’re still […]

Patrick Baldwin Jr. would’ve been selected some 20 spots higher if the NBA draft took place a year ago. A hugely disappointing freshman campaign at Wisconsin could ultimately work in Baldwin’s favor, though, as the Golden State Warriors work to help the 6’9 sharpshooter regain the form that made him a consensus top-five prospect in […]

Even the most zealous Dub Nation partisans must admit that the Golden State Warriors’ latest title team doesn’t compare to its predecessors in terms of individual talent and overall quality. The 2017 and 2018 Warriors were two of the most dominant squads in league history, championship shoo-ins around Steph Curry and Kevin Durant even before […]

The 2022 NBA Draft is set to kick 0ff on Thursday, at 8 P.M. Eastern. It should be an evening full of drama as teams across the league are involved in numerous trade rumors. The Golden State Warriors have received interest from the Boston Celtics, New York Knicks, and Orlando Magic in the 28th pick […]

As was the case after the team’s previous three NBA title wins over the last decade, Golden State Warriors general manager Bob Myers will have multiple crucial roster decisions to make in the offseason. Among them, he is set to face a dilemma regarding the future of Gary Payton II with the team. After being […]

Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry is the greatest shooter to ever live and certainly up there as one of the best players to step on a basketball court. Yet, he still has his fair share of haters. Dubs GM Bob Myers meanwhile is sick and tired of hearing the doubters try to bash Steph, […]

Before Dillon Brooks took out Gary Payton II in the second round, the Golden State Warriors guard made a name for himself in the playoffs with his hard-nosed defense and knack for making big plays. This came after a regular season in which Payton finally became a legitimate rotation player, which followed years of him […]

The Minnesota Timberwolves are going big-name fishing to add a star this offseason. But the stars they are looking for right now aren’t on the court. They’re in the front office. The Timberwolves are looking into Tim Connelly, the Denver Nuggets’ president, for the same role in Minnesota. According to Jon Krawczynski of The Athletic, […]
