Not a surprising answer, but it was certainly hard to miss the theme: Curry wants to win and wants to be a Warrior for as long as he believes they have a chance to win. “From what I’ve heard, all he said was what you’d expect, I’d think, which is, ‘I want to win,’” Lacob said. “And if we were a really bad team, I guess he would rethink, you know, whether he really wanted to finish his career here. But he didn’t expect — that’s not the case and he didn’t expect that to be the case. And certainly from any conversations I’ve had with Steph, and I’m pretty close to Steph, we talk a lot. I think we have a great relationship. I think he’s very comfortable with the path of the franchise and how hard we do try to put a great, as good a product on the court as we can.”

Question for Golden State fans:
Do you believe the success of Podz and Kuminga are due to the ridiculous gravity Steph Curry provides?
Or do you believe they are actually good players who can have the same level of success when teams actually scheme to stop them? – 5:56 PM

More on this storyline
“I do view that our window is a little longer than people think,” Lacob told me on my podcast earlier this week. “If there’s such a thing as a window. But with respect to Steph, let’s just say … I think the window’s probably longer than people give it credit for. He’s in remarkable shape. I do not see some big slowdown from Steph here. In fact, I would argue he’s one of the best players on the Olympic team. “I don’t see it closing anytime that soon. We all have to understand that Father Time is undefeated and eventually that will be the case. But we don’t look at it, honestly, like it’s a window this year, it has to be this year, what can we do, all in. We’re always trying to make our team as absolutely good as it can be, because we’re trying to win championships. “We won in ’22 and they said we couldn’t. I think we can win this next year. I think it’s possible.” -via New York Times / July 26, 2024
