For former Warriors GM Bob Myers, one particular decision is the hardest he made during his Golden State tenure. “Trading [Andre] Iguodala,” Myers said on "Cousins with Vince Carter & Tracy McGrady." “We had to trade Iguodala, who had won three championships with the team, in 2019 to sign D'Angelo Russell. And the way he took it, the professionalism, made it, as far as a player handling a tough thing, that I've never seen one do it as well as he did in that moment.”

Theo Pinson: My second year. Kenny Atinson is my coach. Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, DeAndre Jordan, all these guys just get there. We on a the path has changed. We in championship or bus mode at this point because you got bonafide guys. And it shifted so quickly. It took everybody a minute to get themselves together because like at first we had D'Angelo Russell, Caris LeVert, Jarrett Allen. We were just in figuring it out. We just made the playoffs. We played Philly, blah blah blah. Everybody was like, "Yo, Brooklyn's on the way." Blah, blah, blah. And then these guys come. I'll never forget, bro. We played in Miami. I think we played the game and we had practice in Miami before we got on the plane. I don't know what the f*ck happened. I don't know. And I f*ck with Kenny Atkinson. That is my guy. He gave me opportunity. I f*ck with him. But I don't know what the f*ck happened, but Kenny was on one that day. This motherf*cker was going off. We were trying to run all types of sh*t like y'all know what Pistol is. Pistol is a like when you come down the court, guy sets like a flat screen on the sideline just to get the switch or whatever. People do it all the time in the playoffs just to get the matchups. And pretty much KD and them, they weren't really rocking all that like, ‘Hey, look, just give me the f*cking ball and all this shit.’ And we weren't, they weren't really running it, bro. Next thing you know, he flips the f*ck out. He's like, ‘Run the sh*t! I'm the f*cking coach! Run the sh*t.’ And everybody's like, “Oh sh*t.’ And I ain't he never seen it before. And he's yelling at superstars now? One game, he got an altercation in the huddle, the next morning he was gone. He got fired. That's when I was like, ‘Oh sh*t.’ The NBA is 1,000 percent a players’ league. (…) You don't talk to your star the same way you talk to everybody else.
