I’ve been writing a ton of content here at Golden State of Mind grieving the apparently imminent departure of franchise icon Klay Thompson after he has failed to come to terms with the Golden State Warriors for a new contract.
I’m grappling with the fandom emotions of a guy looking to do what’s best for his personal life and family which is absolutely his prerogative, while wondering if there’s anything the Dubs can do to keep the Big 3 of Thompson, Stephen Curry, and Draymond Green in tact for the duration of their careers.
I never really imagined a scenario where those three guys wouldn’t remain in Golden State forever; they seemed like they would all ride off into the sunset together after running roughshod over the league.
