Rockets' Rookie Josh Christopher's Old Tweets About Steph Curry Have Come to Surface

As sure as the the sun comes up every morning, an NBA rookie will get their old tweets pulled up in the first few weeks or so following draft night. The Rockets’ newly drafted Joshua Christopher was no exception.

I was alerted of an image someone put together which contained a tweet compilation of sorts of Steph Curry slander. There was multiple tweets from 2016, all bashing Curry, and they were all from Christopher, also known as JayGup’s twitter page. Naturally, I posted it to twitter as some of the tweets were hilarious. Like the “Steven Adams > Steph Curry” one for example.

“He’s the best shooter who ever lived”: Steph Curry and the Olympic Window for 2024

One of the more notable missing names from Team USA’s Olympic run this past summer in Tokyo was Warriors guard and perennial MVP candidate Steph Curry. Curry opted out of the Olympics after Golden State’s heartbreakers against the Lakers and Grizzlies in the play-in. It appears that Steph chose to take the offseason to rest and gear up for another title run next year and beyond: He just signed a four-year extension with the Warriors and with his skillset, certainly has the longevity to be a dominant force in the league for years to come. But will he be playing in the 2024 Olympics?

Warriors Reported to be "Enamored" With Pascal Siakam

Aside from the signing of Andre Iguodala to a one-year deal, Golden State hasn’t made much of a splash in free agency or via trade. Not yet at least.

A recent report from Jason Anderson of the Sacramento Bee has linked the Golden State Warriors to the Toronto Raptors’ Pascal Siakam. According to Anderson’s sources the Raptors are receiving numerous calls from teams around the league regarding Siakam. The source claims Toronto’s team president Masai Ujiri is “listening like a good negotiator.” Apparently the Sacramento Kings, Warriors, and Los Angeles Clippers are “enamored” by the power forward from the North. The report did go on to say that the likelihood of Siakam is relatively low as Siakam doesn’t have any wish to leave his current team. However if the Raptors are listening to offers certainly anything could happen.

Iguodala responds to Skip Bayless Tweet Regarding His Decision To Return to Golden State Opposed to Joining LeBron in L.A.

One of the more well known sports talking heads, Skip Bayless, went to Twitter recently to do what he does best, attempt to stir up controversy. This time, as he’s done many times before, he set his targets on Lakers superstar, LeBron James. However, he did so by way of three-time champion and newly returning member of the Golden State Warriors, Andre Iguodala. Iguodala took notice and made sure to add his own two cents via tweet reply.

Here’s the Timeline on Klay Thompson’s Return to Play

As we look towards the 2021-2022 NBA season, the Golden State Warriors currently have the fourth-best odds to hoist the championship, preceded by the Brooklyn Nets, Los Angeles Lakers, and defending champion Milwaukee Bucks. With Stephen Curry and Draymond Green still performing at their peak, and with noteworthy veteran additions via free agency to bolster the roster, contending for a championship this year is the goal. A significant factor in Golden State’s favor is the impending return of Klay Thompson.

Draymond Green Takes to Social Media to Call Out Team USA Detractors

Late Friday night and into the early Saturday morning hours Draymond Green was feeling some type of way. The now two-time Olympic gold medalist quickly shifted his focus from celebration mode to attack mode and sometimes mixed the two modes together as he sounded off via social media on those who disparaged the U.S. Men’s Basketball team following their slow Olympic start.
