I came here to make this comment. I found that quote offensive, as both a founder (I’ve started two companies) and angel investor (I “started” zero of these companies!). According to Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Lacob), Joe Lacob has never started a company.

Yeah, that is very far from the way most VCs view their role in the ecosystem, and I gather that was the case even before the recent "founder-friendly" era. Tells you something about this guy in particular and his version of the Warriors story. I don't doubt that he's made a lot of good moves with the Warriors, but this piece is so over the top.

Is this wordplay similar to a minister "marrying 70 people" throughout a career?
