Team USA head coach Steve Kerr has a stacked roster for the 2024 Paris Olympics in men’s basketball. The 2024 squad is being coined as the Redeem Team 2.0, as Team USA is out for revenge after not medaling at the 2023 FIBA World Cup. The United States has revamped the basketball roster and assembled […]

Team USA men’s basketball coach Steve Kerr promised he’d tinker with lineups during the exhibition games ahead of the 2024 Paris Olympics, and he has delivered on that promise. Kerr is making yet another change to the lineup for Wednesday’s game against Nikola Jokic and Serbia in Abu Dhabi, but it doesn’t involve Joel Embiid […]

Head coach Steve Kerr and the Golden State Warriors are currently in the midst of a highly important offseason for the future direction of the franchise, hoping to prove to the doubters (and there are many of them) that their dynastic days are not yet over. Kerr and star point guard Stephen Curry are currently […]

The 2024 Team USA squad is stacked with talent in preparation for the Paris Olympics. Every position contains an All-NBA caliber talent. The frontcourt duo of Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo and Los Angeles Lakers star Anthony Davis are trying to navigate playing smoothly with each other. Moreover, head coach Steve Kerr dropped a five-word […]

Team USA basketball has a wealth of talent at center with Joel Embiid, Anthony Davis, and Bam Adebayo all part of the roster. But after just two exhibition games, some fans are now urging head coach Steve Kerr to consider starting Davis over Embiid in the lineup. Embiid has started in Team USA’s first two […]

Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr, who is also the coach of Team USA at the 2024 Paris Olympics, recently tried to summarize the emotions of his team after an assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump. Kerr called the incident “terrible” and a “demoralizing day for our country.” “This is a time where […]

Whether he’s talking about his eventual claim as the best basketball player alive, or expressing his desires to someday play in the NFL, Minnesota Timberwolves shooting guard Anthony Edwards has never been one to bite his tongue or not speak his mind. Given how sports media has become a 24/7 operation that routinely overanalyzes everything that […]

Kevin Durant and Team USA are in Abu Dhabi to take on Australia this coming Tuesday at 12 p.m. ET. Coach Steve Kerr’s team has made headlines in recent days after its solid performance in an exhibition win over Team Canada in preparation for the Summer Olympics later this month. On Saturday, Durant spoke about […]

Whether or not Boston Celtics star Jayson Tatum could score in bunches at the NBA level was never in question. However, when he was forced to become more of a playmaker than a scorer in the 2022 NBA Finals, he came up short. The five-time All-Star learned from those failures and created for others at […]

The Golden State Warriors are in the middle of one of their most pivotal offseasons in years. This offseason feels like a sliding doors moment of sorts, where their decision on whether or not to go all-in and make the most out of the remaining elite seasons of Stephen Curry’s career will affect how their […]

Team USA had their first game together Wednesday night as it was an exhibition game against Team Canada where they won, 86-72. It was far from a perfect performance, but with the immense group of talent assembled for the Paris Olympics, star Anthony Davis has a bold claim about who can truly beat their team. […]

Although it wasn’t the prettiest win, Team USA started out its slate of Olympic exhibition matches with a win over its neighbors to the north. The Americans beat Team Canada 86-72, taking command of the game in the second half. As they continue with their slate of exhibition games before group play begins later this […]

The Golden State Warriors officially dismantled their championship core this offseason with Klay Thompson’s departure to the Dallas Mavericks in free agency to the Dallas Mavericks. It seemed inevitable after the two sides had been unable to reach an agreement on a contract extension during the regular season. But this move might be exactly what […]

Steve Kerr’s first year as the head coach of Team USA did not go according to plan. They finished in fourth during their 2023 FIBA World Cup run in Manila, which, suffice to say, is a huge disappointment, as it’s always gold medal or bust for the most stacked basketball nation in the world. With […]

Team USA has been practicing with incoming college freshmen and other young players in recent days. Normally that would seem like a cakewalk, but to Kevin Durant, LeBron James, Coach Steve Kerr and the rest of Team USA, it’s been seen as an opportunity to keep a watchful eye on Cooper Flagg, the mercurial Duke […]

The United States is slated to face their neighbors in the north in the Olympics on Wednesday, but they’ll be shorthanded. While the majority of Team USA’s roster will play in the exhibition match, head coach Steve Kerr is holding out one key chess piece. Star forward Kevin Durant will be out with a calf […]

It has been a long time coming but it finally happened. LeBron James and Stephen Curry are going to be teammates for Team USA. The Golden State Warriors superstar is going to represent the Stars and Stripes for the first time in the Olympics. Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Lakers legend is a veteran when it […]

While many of the Golden State Warriors’ recent picks in the NBA Draft have come under fire — Jordan Poole, James Wiseman, Moses Moody and Patrick Baldwin Jr., just to name a few — one that the Dubs front office nailed without even the tiniest bit of doubt was Brandin Podziemski. Billed as a promising […]

Training camps are in full swing for Team USA as they prepare for the 2024 Paris Olympics. A big name to look out for is the legendary guard out of the Golden State Warriors, Stephen Curry. While he has donned the Stars and Stripes for the FIBA World Cup, it will be his first time […]

The last thing that Team USA wants before the 2024 Paris Olympics is an injury to their squad. It will be up to Steve Kerr to manage this squad’s fatigue while making them give their optimal production for the nation. However, the LeBron James and Stepehhen Curry-led squad may already see one man go down […]

For the last decade, the Golden State Warriors have undoubtedly been the defining team in the National Basketball Association. Consider, no franchise has won more regular season games (519), or postseason games (99), or made more NBA Finals appearances (6), or won more NBA championships (4) than the Golden State Warriors. In that ten year span, Stephen […]

Now that Golden State Warriors legend Klay Thompson has moved on to the Dallas Mavericks, the team has put together a touching tribute video for Thompson. “Klay is my dog. Our chemistry has taken us to all types of crazy heights.” The Warriors with a tribute video for Klay Thompson 🙌 (via @warriors)pic.twitter.com/zL6JYboXy6 — ClutchPoints […]

It’s been a tough offseason for Golden State Warriors fans. Klay Thompson, who spent 13 fruitful years in the Bay and he formed arguably the best backcourt in NBA history alongside Stephen Curry, left for the Dallas Mavericks after helping to lead the Dubs to four championships in 2015, 2017, 2018, and 2022. Warriors head […]

Usually, the idea of LeBron James coming off the bench would only be thought of by the most irrational “LeBron haters.” However, it’s a different conversation when “The King” is playing on a squad full of superstars in the Olympics. Team USA head coach Steve Kerr acknowledged that he and the staff have thought about […]

The Golden State Warriors have suddenly become an entirely different team of sorts now that Klay Thompson is in Dallas with the defending Western Conference Champion Dallas Mavericks. The Warriors won’t have the traditional Splash Brothers duo of Stephen Curry and Thompson to rely on this season, but they will likely have a more versatile […]

All good things come to an end, but they should not come down burning in flames. The Splash Brothers was the greatest duo in not just Golden State Warriors history but also arguably in all of the 77 years of the league. Stephen Curry perfectly complemented Klay Thompson’s playstyle and vice versa. The addition of […]

The Golden State Warriors are widely perceived to be on the downside of their time as championship contenders, and point guard Chris Paul on the downside of his career. The household name, State Farm pitchman and wily veteran is still owned a princely sum for his upcoming 2024-2025, however, which prompted a decision that was […]

The Golden State Warriors’ dynasty has faded, and Klay Thompson is a poster child of that decline. The four-time NBA champion is coming off his worst season yet, and there’s a good chance he may not be a Warrior again. Head coach Steve Kerr opened up about the possibility of Thompson not coming back, via […]

There are a ton of reasons for a team’s success other than the star who is front and center. The Golden State Warriors dynasty knows this more than most others in the past decade. While Stephen Curry has still been their primary off-ball great and Draymond Green continues to be a defensive menace, a guy […]

There are a lot of signs that point to the end of the Golden State Warriors dynasty. The Steve Kerr and Stephen Curry-led squad’s failure to get into the NBA Playoffs was a big signifier of the historic collapse. Another is the significant drop in Klay Thompson’s production which led to his benching in favor […]

There will always be a once-in-a-generation player who will redefine a league whether it is the NBA or WNBA. Since Stephen Curry was drafted by the Golden State Warriors, teams practically eliminated their mid-range sets. They also started playing more five-out actions. While this has not happened quite yet due to Caitlin Clark’s entry, the […]

Former NBA vet Zach Randolph had a long and successful career in the association. On Tuesday, Randolph joined Paul George on the latest edition of Podcast P presented by Wave Sports + Entertainment, where he told a hilarious story involving Steve Kerr during his rookie season with the Portland Trail Blazers. “Man, Steve’s my man…great […]

There isn’t much time left for the Golden State Warriors to maximize their championship window with Stephen Curry. A bunch of factors led to their early collapse in the NBA Playoffs these past two seasons. A big part of that is Klay Thompson’s steady decline and Draymond Green’s constant absence. While guys like Jonathan Kuminga, […]

The Golden State Warriors were likely busy on Wednesday watching the new guard of the NBA take center stage with the Timberwolves and Mavericks going up against each other in the Western Conference Finals. The Warriors’ Stephen Curry is far from a forgotten man, though, as he was recently given an All-NBA nod that had […]

The Golden State Warriors had a surprisingly poor season this year despite having loads of talent on the team. The Warriors failed to make the playoffs this season, and their offseason got started earlier than they were hoping because of it. Steve Kerr has been the head coach of the Warriors since 2014, but eventually […]

The Golden State Warriors were knocked out of the Play-In Tournament by the Sacramento Kings in a loss that millions of NBA fans saw coming from a mile away. The Warriors’ roster had become depleted over the past few years with veteran players like Draymond Green and Klay Thompson unable to pick up the slack. […]

So much for the Golden State Warriors’ underdog run through the play-in tournament and deep into the playoffs. As the Dubs turn the page toward what could be a truly transformational summer, let’s look back at everything that went wrong in the Bay during a tumultuous 2023-24 season. Draymond Green’s multiple suspensions Mike Dunleavy Jr. […]

The Golden State Warriors may not have been the pioneers of the five-out and delay action schemes but they sure do it the best out of any other team in NBA history. Steve Kerr has found a way to make the whole league revolve around them with his complimentary usage of stagger screens, off-ball movements, […]

The Golden State Warriors lost their play-in game to the Sacramento Kings earlier this week and now fans and media are attempting to sort things through. The Warriors got dismal performances from Klay Thompson and Chris Paul in the final game as they combined for three points in 50 minutes of action. Could the Warriors’ […]
