In Hour 4, Kranky Krueg and Salty Silver dive into the state of the Golden State Warriors, discussing their recent struggles and potential future moves. The Warriors have been a dominant force in the NBA for years, but their recent performance has been lackluster. The hosts discuss the team's aging roster and the need for change, but also acknowledge the importance of keeping Steph Curry, who is still capable of playing at an elite level. They debate whether the team should rebuild or try to compete with their current roster, and whether trading Steph would be the best decision for the franchise.
