\"Golden<\/p>\n

The Golden State Warriors just got their best game from Dennis Schroder since trading for him, with the career journeyman recording 15 points, six assists, and two steals on 5-9 shooting from the field (3-4 from three). However, if that\u2019s<\/em> what they were looking for when they made the move, then it\u2019s unlikely he\u2019ll genuinely be happy. Much like the Warriors\u2019 decision to acquire Chris Paul\u00a0last season, the trade never made much sense. Their overall talent levels aside, neither Schroder nor Paul were a smooth fit alongside Stephen Curry in the backcourt.<\/p>\n

Over the years, Curry has grown accustomed to a hybrid role. Though nominally a point guard, the two-time MVP is running around screens so often, he\u2019s more of an off guard. This is one reason why players like Draymond Green and Andre Iguodala, and Brandin Podziemski are so important. They can be de facto<\/em> lead guards, even when Curry is on the court. With Schroder, the Warriors theoretically would\u2019ve had at least three playmakers in the starting lineup, which would help their players get easier shots.<\/p>\n

Flipping Dennis Schroder For Star Would Be Wise For Warriors<\/h2>\n

What Golden State didn\u2019t seem to consider was how comfortable Schroder would be. That was also the case with Paul. Despite the future Hall of Famer having a tense relationship with Curry (that Green takes credit for creating) they brought him on board. They then took it a step further by having him come off the bench for the first time in his career. It was such a bad experience for Paul that he recently called it \u201cone of (my) toughest years.\u201d<\/p>\n

Schroder is at least starting. However, it doesn\u2019t sound like he\u2019s all too enthused about the role he has to play.<\/p>\n
