Now, going into media day, I tried to have a lot of hope, but immediately that hope was dashed because of Kristaps Porziņģis.
And at this point, can we even be surprised? He's out again indefinitely for some mysterious illness.
And at this point, you gotta ask yourself, why even bother? Like, if the Warriors aren't gonna try, why should we try as fans? Because this has gotten to the point where it's beyond doing the same thing over and over again, expecting different results.
Like, we think back to the, the process of the Sixers, where they pretty much self-sabotaged and tried to be as horrible as they could to get a top pick, and did whatever they could to attain top picks.
But with this Warriors team, it's like, "Let's sign a bunch of guys and see what they can do." They aren't even trying to win, they aren't even trying to put together a real team, and they're expecting great results.
It-- He was cleared a week ago to do everything on the court, and then this mysterious illness pops up.
What is this mysterious illness? Stop ducking and dodging the questions when they are asked about the illness, Porziņģis.
You're obviously lying to the fans, you're lying to the front office, and you're lying to the media.
Now, I've heard rumors that he may have contracted HIV or AIDS for s- some of the women that he's been out with.
I know we all remember that rape allegation story from when he tore his ACL years ago.
But still, what is this mysterious illness? I mean, this honestly does smell like it might be HIV or AIDS to this point, because it's like he just, he's out mysteriously and he doesn't offer us anything of what, what it might be.
And now, look, he's not even gonna be ready for the start of the season because of his nonsense.
I mean, what sh- did the physical when the Warriors signed him tell you anything? Like, he was cleared, good to go.
Why didn't the physical determine what this illness actually was and maybe, you know, let the Warriors decide against signing him, instead of just bringing him back on a pretty much a one-year deal with, I believe, the second year is only three million guaranteed.
