The following is a comment I posted on this Wages of Wins post today, which I can almost guarantee will not get published there, so I'm posting it here instead. I remember when Jeremy said the Warriors would win 50 games a couple seasons ago, because of David Lee. http://wagesofwins.com/2010/07/14/warriors-stumble-on-50-wins/ But then some stuff happened, David Lee got hurt, so that probably was the reason they didn’t make it. http://wagesofwins.com/2011/02/08/how-the-warriors-stumbled-instead/ So, then he said when David Lee got healthy, they’d probably win 40 or 50. Alas, that didn’t quite work out the way Jeremy had predicted. I think for now I’ll trust Myers who did what many of us had wanted for a long time. He shipped off Monta Ellis and he brought in a legitimate big man in Bogut. Injuries are risks that every team faces. But without taking these risks, the Warriors had very little chance of improving. And for all the anti-tanking logic around here and elsewhere, the Warriors now have a much better chance of keeping their lottery pick than they did halfway through the season. A season that was going nowhere fast, anyway.
