    This is what the GSW SB Nation had to say about Theo Robertson:

    Cal's very own, Theo Robertson finished his senior season as the school's all-time leader in 3-point percentage (45.3%) and had the ambition of becoming a sport's manager immediately after his graduation in 2010. He served as Cal's Director of Basketball Operations for one year. In 2014, the Warriors brought him in as a video intern and began showing him the ropes at the NBA level. Theo exceeded expectations, and was promoted to Video Coordinator/Player Development.

    Robertson has earned the trust of the organization, and sits behind the bench every game. He's especially close to Draymond Green, and has helped Green develop into a top five player in the league these past two years. Theo works extensively with the coaching staff every day in the film room, and has committed his life to pinpointing the strengths and weaknesses of the competition.

    Is the coaching staff full yet? We're putting a lot of focus on players development. Shaw and Mermuys were also praised for working with young guys and being close to the players. We justifiably are building a nurturing and familial culture, I just wish we can add a defense specialist.

    Think about MWP this way. Anyone who played or coached under Boron the Moron last year was not allowed a chance to be the best that he could be. I mean come on it was freaking Boron. Therefore as a 15th person on the roster and major person helping coach defense for Luuke ...... we did not see in either area of MWP's remaining game as a player or as a coach the best that he had to offer. I blame EVERYTHING on Byron. It's fun to do that and inspiring going forward knowing that he is gone.

    Bring Peace back. Give Peace a Chance. Kobe said talking to DAR and Randle or some combo last year on the bench and was pointing out to them to be watching MWP because they should have seen him back in the day. Zubacca and Mozzie have the soft hands. Black has big hands. Metta has the hard quick hands and knows how to use them. Do it Luke. At least as a coach.

    Well that's not totally fair, even to Byron. He was out there too .... and unlike "slow "Q" Luke" still had his fast twitch athleticism on display last year. Byron was in shape too.

    I know. But he honestly deserves no "fair". Seriously. He f***** up that team last year totally. No way should we have only won 17 games and Russell wind up on the 2nd team rookie lineup. Then he mocks the media types and all us fans with the famous quote at the end of the season, "I know more than all of you about basketball and none of you were at the practices".

    I don't disagree. It's going to be very fun watching Luke as a coach. He's going to make things different. I feel it.

    It's not a real practice unless someone throws up or gets injured. What does Luke know about fistfights? Man up Luke!
