And Jerry West has now been part of the successful free-agent recruitment and landing of:
-Shaquille O'Neal
-Kevin Durant
-Kawhi Leonard
(And acquiring of Kobe Bryant and Paul George.)
There is nobody who comes close to this in the history of the NBA or perhaps all of sports.

- The Warriors are 22-2 in playoff series in six postseason trips under Steve Kerr.
- Yeah, I think the Warriors probably still should build around Steph Curry.
- Tyreke Evans in 2009 Jimmer Fredette in 2011 Ben McLemore in 2013 Willie Cauley-Stein in 2015 Marvin Bagley in 2018 That's who the Kings took ahead of: 2009: Steph Curry 2011: Kawhi Leonard 2013: Giannis Antetokounmpo 2015: Devin Booker 2018: Luka Doncic
- Steph Curry vs. the World is the best entertainment we've got.
- * Colin Kaepernick in 2016 for 49ers: 16 TD, 4 INT, 90.7 rating -Hasn't been signed since * Blaine Gabbert in 2016 for 49ers: 5 TD, 6 INT, 68.4 rating -Played for AZ in 2017, TEN in 2018 and is on TB now. -In 2017: 6 TD, 6 INT, 71.9 rating -In 2018: 4 TD, 4 INT, 74.9 rating
- Wiggins and Looney. The quietest Warriors. Loud tonight.
- Steph is going to make 300 3-pointers in a 72-game season. He's at 260 now. He might make 320.
- Wiggins is hugging EVERYBODY.
- Maher just missed 2 more and Jerry Jones literally walked on to the field to talk to him. I have NEVER seen that before.About 50% into the closed side. Now one more time to the open side.
- Will be writing on the Draymond situation today, but after attending the pressers yesterday and thinking about it, one thing that jumps out: This is Steph Curry's team. Not Steph and Draymond's team. Steph Curry's team. Draymond isn't a leader. He abdicated that on Tuesday.
- Great coaching decisions by Kerr: Get the ball to Steph. Then congratulate him.
- They didn't say it at the podium, but the Warriors are absolutely seething privately (and let a little of it get out publicly) about the Draymond ejection, the Curry charge call that wasn't overturned and several other calls and non-calls. But seething with smiles after the W.
- Kyle Lowry was direct. He was clear. He said Mark Stevens shouldn't be a part of the league any more. He's right.
