Michael Jordan’s former teammate explains the ‘cost’ of the end of the Warriors’ dynasty

In the middle Golden State Warriors‘ trying the 2024-25 campaign, Michael Jordan’s former teammate BJ Armstrong entered the conversation about what’s next for the NBA’s newest dynasty. The Warriors are currently out of the playoff picture in the Western Conference. While he is the head coach Steve Kerr is confident that Stephen Curry would not require a tradeBulls champion Armstrong reminds everyone that NBA dynasties traditionally end in less than ideal fashion.

Armstrong talked about it recently via 85.7 The Game’s Steini & Guru show.

“(Dynasty) never ends well. That is the price that must be paid. We have to enjoy where Steph Curry, Draymond Green are in their careers… We’re witnessing it in real time.”

While some doubt the Warriors will make a move before the NBA trade deadline, they could stay with their current team until the end of the regular season. Kerr doubled down on not making a blockbuster move. Either way, BJ Armstrong doesn’t expect the Golden State story to end on a high note.

Steve Kerr rejects Stephen Curry trade requests from the Warriors

Warriors coach Steve Kerr can’t imagine Stephen Curry ever demanding a trade from the Warriors. Kerr was adamant when the topic was brought up via 95.7 The Game.

“No way,” Kerr said. “I don’t think so.” I just think Steph loves the Warriors. He loves the idea of ​​being a warrior for life. I think it means so much to him. This is what makes it unique and different. That’s why he doesn’t ask the organization to trade everything to help him. Steph is so special in so many different ways. His self-awareness is simply incredible. Being a Warrior is so important to him. I don’t think our fans will ever have to worry about that.”

Still, Kerr wonders how the Warriors can make life easier for their future Hall of Fame guard.

“It’s just a question of man, can we help him?” What can we do? I watch him still out there performing and playing at such a high level, and bringing so much joy to people, not just at the Chase but in every arena; people are so excited to see this guy play,” Kerr said. “There is so much value in that. Watching him perform. I think our fans recognize and understand that. And they want to see him perform as long as possible.

“This guy is one of the greatest artists of all time.” He’s just an amazing performer. We are all happy to watch him play. Hopefully it’s something that will last for a few more years. It sure looks that way.”

The Warriors will face the Timberwolves on Wednesday.
