Bob Myers is one of the most respected executives in all of basketball and it is easy to see why. Overall, he put together one of the greatest dynasties in the entire history of the NBA. The Golden State Warriors won four titles starting in 2015 and made it to six NBA Finals. Although the team had some down years, they came back in 2022 and won it all. It was a huge achievement for the team that showcased just how well put together the Warriors have been throughout all of these years.
Unfortunately for the Warriors, they were not able to get over the hump this year. They had a weak regular season that resulted in a sixth seed in the West. Furthermore, they were pushed to seven games by Sacramento before being eliminated by the Los Angeles Lakers in six. It was not the end of the season that the Warriors were hoping for, and now, they have big decisions to make. However, moving forward, Myers will not be making these decisions.
Bob Myers Leaves On His Own Terms
According to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN, Bob Myers announced that he would be stepping down from the team. Overall, Myers was not fired or anything like that. Instead, he just believes now is the best time for him to leave. He has accomplished everything he has set out to, and he is happy leaving right now. Although Warriors fans are certainly going to miss him, it seems like Myers will get to enjoy some much-needed time off. Either way, this is an end of an era for the Golden State Warriors. What happens from here on out, is anyone's best guess.
In the eyes of many, the dynasty ended as soon as the Warriors lost to the Lakers. Steph Curry is getting older, as is Klay Thompson. Additionally, there is this sense that Draymond Green will want to leave and join LeBron James in L.A. Whatever the case, it was a pleasure watching the Warriors over the past decade.
