Stephen Curry should be the only untouchable asset for the Golden State Warriors<\/a> this summer after the franchise\u2019s disappointing 38-46 campaign.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Moving forward, the goal for the Dubs should be to surround the four-time NBA champion with as many win-now pieces to ensure they\u2019re well-equipped for a championship run in the immediate future.\u00a0<\/p>\n

However, if the Dubs aren\u2019t careful, Blue Man Hoop\u2019s Peter O\u2019Keefe<\/a> believes there\u2019s a nightmare free agency scenario in which the organization could lose Curry for good.<\/p>\n

\u201cWarriors have to be careful with Stephen Curry this offseason,\u201d O\u2019Keefe wrote Saturday. \u201cIf Curry’s reaction to this (NBC Sports Bay Area\u2019s Monte Poole\u2019s report<\/a> that Warriors want Steve Kerr to hold players more accountable if he remains head coach) is in any way similar to that of fans, there’d be a level of bemusement in this demand.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile not a direct shot at the 12-time All-Star, the Warriors do need to be careful with everything they do this offseason and how it could potentially influence Curry’s view of how the franchise is tracking.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cShould the Warriors prove unable to sign Curry to an extension this summer, anxiety could grow as next season progresses with the 2022 Finals MVP on an expiring contract and set to become a free agent next year.\u201d<\/p>\n

The last thing the Warriors want to do is push their franchise legend into the arms of a different franchise in 2027. At that point, the Dubs\u2019 title window would be closed, and the seven-time champions would have no choice but to enter rebuild mode.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Essentially, rubbing Curry isn\u2019t an option for Golden State if they want the future Hall of Famer to compete in the Bay beyond the 2026-27 season.<\/p>\n
