SAN FRANCISCO — It’s easy for Warriors executives, coaches and players to hide at Chase Center. Plenty of secret corridors and curtains connect and obscure the back rooms of the team’s locker room and practice facility.
Yet, a large group of grim-faced Warriors executives met for a powwow in plain sight following the team’s embarrassing loss to a Phoenix Suns team playing without any of its star players on Tuesday night. In a room next to the team’s locker room, majority owner Joe Lacob, his sons and executives Kirk and Kent Lacob along with general manager Bob Myers and vice president of basketball operations Mike Dunleavy Jr. were among those circled up.
One can only wonder what the brain trust was discussing after a loss like that to complete an underwhelming first half of a title defense season. The Warriors’ brass certainly has decisions to make after reaching the midway point a game under .500, sitting as the eighth seed in a mediocre Western Conference.
