From the time he was traded from the Warriors to the Hawks through the end of the regular season, Jonathan Kuminga ranked 6th on the Hawks in plus-minus.
He ranked 5th in total net rating from Feb 24 through the end of the regular season and 9th on the team in the playoffs.

The Santa Cruz Sea Dubs get run outta the gym by the Ant-less Timberwolves, 108-83
This isn't an NBA team without Steph Curry. Ant and Austin Rivers were mocking Podz on the sidelines. This team is a joke. This organization is a joke. They seem Hell-bent on wasting yet another year of Steph Curry's career. Absolutely insane.
Put those Clown Lacob PFPs on and pray that they do something meaningful next week. They've got $85M in salaries and ALL their draft picks. Even TIM KAWAKAMI is saying go get Lauri! The fuck is this nonsense? Better be posturing...

Replying to @Hooponomics @_TheLogPod
Immensely appreciate your analysis and insights on KNBR and Locked on Warriors.
Awesome analysis here.
People will read the below and say “you’re a hater!” And “you don’t know ball!”
Ha!
Never let facts get in the way of a good argument…
#Warriors missteps timeline:
1. Drafting a raw #7 pick during championship window
2. Inconsistent development
The 5-year result: 22nd percentile impact.
Accept the misalignment & poor ROI. Time to correct course, reallocate capital, & pivot to the present. #1Timeline

The FO has $85M+ in salaries and ALL of their picks. They have an elite Steph Curry. They're telling you there's nothing they can do outside of hoping Giannis shows up (Year 7 of that btw). They talk about Trey Murphy knowing the Pelicans probably won't move him.
There are realistic moves they can make. Flip JK for Wiggs. Flip Jimmy for MPJ & Clax or Lauri. Hell, get me LaVine and Clax. Commit. Send some picks. Get Steph help.
These bozos won't even trade JK... They seem hell-bent on wasting yet another year of Steph's career. Just buckle up. When they tell you "trades are hard," there's nothing that they could've done... It's utter bullshit.
My take on what Jimmy’s injury means for #DubNation
Losing Jimmy is a massive hit given how well the team’s been playing. But it might actually give them leverage in trade talks, especially around Kuminga. They could now hold onto him or use him differently, which shifts the landscape.
They still need to make a move… someone like MPJ could be that scoring punch to help Steph.
This year’s roster is stronger than last year’s pre-Butler squad with a healthy Melton, Al / BP / Moody stepping up as of late, Will’s emergence, and QP chewing up center minutes, but the front office has to capitalize on Steph’s existing window.
Other options? They could do nothing and wait for summer, blow it up entirely, or try to land another big name, though going for an Anthony Davis or Giannis is unlikely.
The main point is they need to act decisively, or they’ll squander what’s left of this championship window with Steph still playing at such an elite level.
As #DubNation crosses into January 15, I broke down some things with @KO_Crowley on how the Warriors should approach their roster construction. Always a good time chatting with Kerry!

The Warriors (21-19) can't keep up with the Hawks and get smashed, 124-111
Jimmy: +3.7 EPM
Steph: -0.1 EPM
Dray: -0.1 EPM
GP2: -1.2 EPM
Horford: -1.4 EPM
Moody: -1.8 EPM
Gui: -1.9 EPM
Post: -2.0 EPM
Melton: -2.8 EPM
Podz: -2.9 EPM
Will: -3.8 EPM
Lineups/On/Off Notes:
The starting lineup was -1/+1.1 Net. The best lineup was Steph/Melton/Jimmy/GP2/Dray +8/+50 Net.
We could make this complicated. We could analyze all sorts of things. Let me keep this simple to start. The Warriors shot 10/42 from 3. That's 23.8%. They also had 16 turnovers. Can't shoot. Can't hold onto the ball. That's an L. Every single time.
If we're going to dig a bit deeper, the fact is that Jalen Johnson and NAW wrecked us. Jalen Johnson, especially. He was just too talented and too athletic for us. Nobody could contain him. Though the game was close at Halftime, the Hawks blew the game open early in the 3rd quarter and their 59-53 lead ballooned to 70-58 quickly. The Hawks started hitting everything from deep. And by the Hawks, I mean Luke Kennard who went absolutely unconscious. Steph, by contrast, scored well, but couldn't hit his 3s. Jimmy was really the only guy we had that could get whatever he wanted to on offense. Note that he was the only player with a positive EPM in this game.
I think we see a pattern here. These are the types of teams we just struggle against. Young, athletic, talented... And guess who we play next? THE BLAZERS!
Look #DubNation it's sounding pretty dark, ngl. Lacob and Mike are clutching those picks tightly. I even read they're still yapping about Giannis. That's SEVEN YEARS in a row. Look it up. It's insane. You've had Steph Curry this entire time and you're holding your picks for Giannis? WTF.
This team isn't nearly as bad as their record implies. This team can make noise. They just need a chance. You can't put all these young guys, guards, and specialists around Steph, Jimmy, Dray, Melton, and Horford and expect success. Gotta #SendDaPicks. We won in 2022 with balance. We had Wiggins, Otto, Bjelica, Klay, Poole... Now we've got Moody, Podz, JK (DNP), Buddy, Pat, GP2, Will (rookie), TJD... We are a top heavy roster. Get some talent in here and we will see results. #January15th is 2 days away... Look at this plot... Upper right... I see two guys who could help and I don't mean Jokic. Get one of them, I beg.
