The Golden State Warriors have recorded one of their more impressive wins of the season over the Orlando Magic, but it's been overshadowed by a fiery exchange between Draymond Green and Steve Kerr that saw the veteran forward head to the locker room and not return to the game.

While both Kerr and Green have both tried to downplay the incident, the bigger problem might be that the Warriors continue to look better without their defensive leader on the floor.

The Golden State Warriors snapped their three-game losing streak with a 119-116 victory over the Phoenix Suns on Saturday night, with rookie guard Will Richard making a statement in his return to the rotation.

Buddy Hield's removal from the rotation was a major talking point, and so too Draymond Green's ejection as the Warriors continue to canvas the trade market with further reports linking them to a trio of athletic big men.

The Golden State Warriors have had a few days off leading into Thursday's meeting with the Phoenix Suns, but that hasn't prevented more talking points around the team in regard to Steve Kerr's rotation comments and Joe Lacob's email leak.

How much should we read into what's been said, what does it mean for the rotation over the next month, and what about the possibility of a massive trade leading into the February deadline?

*I forgot to press publish on this episode at the same time it came out on YouTube, but still plenty of relevant discussion after Thursday's loss to the Suns.

Stephen Curry dropped 12 threes and 48 points in Portland on Sunday night, only for Golden State to still fall in a 136-131 defeat to the Trail Blazers.

So, who is to blame for the Warriors' latest disappointing defeat? The performances of veteran stars Jimmy Butler and Draymond Green are under the microscope, along with Steve Kerr's coaching as Golden State fall below .500 on the season.

The Golden State Warriors suffered another disappointing loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves at home on Friday, leading to more rotation and roster issues that simply need to be addressed.

How can Buddy Hield's role in the starting lineup be justified? Does Jimmy Butler need to be aggressive hunting his own shot? Answering those questions and a whole lot more on this episode!

Stevie Ray joins me again on the jam-packed episode to discuss a range of topics, including Pat Spencer's recent emergence and whether it's legitimate, Draymond Green's role moving forward, the guard rotation and Jonathan Kuminga's trade value.

Plus, the Warriors have again been linked to Trey Murphy III and Myles Turner, so what exactly would/should the front office put forth to acquire one of these players before the deadline?

The Golden State Warriors have recorded back-to-back impressive wins over the Cleveland Cavaliers and Chicago Bulls, renewing optimism despite the absences of Stephen Curry and Draymond Green.

There's now more rotation question marks for Steve Kerr as a number of lesser names step up, with Jonathan Kuminga already a notable casualty from the rotation on Sunday in the strongest sign yet that his career with the Warriors is coming to an end.

The Golden State Warriors produced a mammoth comeback effort in the fourth-quarter on Thursday, only to fall short in heart-breaking fashion in the final second.

All the takeaways from a game with plenty of positives and negatives, including the disappointment of Golden State's young players who again failed to step up without the veteran core.

Seth Curry dropped a major statement in his debut for the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday, posting 14 points on 6-of-7 shooting in less than 18 minutes to pile the pressure on others within Steve Kerr's rotation.

That pressure will only heighten with the confirmed return of De'Anthony Melton against the Philadelphia 76ers on Thursday, providing significant question marks on the state of the rotation going forward.

Stevie Ray is back on the podcast to dissect what he's seen from the Warriors over the past few weeks, along with what we can expect from the addition of Seth Curry and the imminent return of De'Anthony Melton.

We then dive into a deep trade discussion on various moves the Warriors could make ahead of the February deadline, and how far we'd be willing to go to acquire certain players.
