No wai

Very strong possibility. We can't break the bank on Draymonds limited offensive skills. How much do you pay a man who's all defense?

Would never describe Draymond as all defense and no offense. Just because he isnt a great scorer, doesnt mean his skillset isnt very valuable to our offense.

So, do you take him over Klay?

At some point the salary cap is going to play in role in breaking this team up. The untouchables unless their ability greatly diminishes are Curry and KD. Everyone else after those two are replaceable to a certain extent. Gotta keep Klay over Draymond however once that decision is pressed.

He has the raw tools but I think he's a ways away from Draymond's leadership capabilities.

Green's contract is up in 2020, that gives him a couple more seasons to develop. The kid has been on absolute fire in the summer league, to go with his developing play in the playoffs and finals.

KD isn't untouchable if he doesn't decide to re-up. Steph is the only sure thing at the moment.

I'm not saying he won't develop into a leader eventually, but it's gonna take him more than a couple of years. Do you really see JB barking at KD, Steph, or Klay on a missed defensive assignment anytime soon? Draymond is a naturally firey guy whose been this way for most of his life. Yeah he can definitely be a knucklehead at times, but he more than makes up for it by being the glue guy making sure guys are on with their assignments.

By 2020 he'll be one of the guys. I'm sure they're grooming him to replace DG come the time.
Green is the core of this team. Stop this crazy talk.

Curry klay and green aren't going anywhere.

Who would you rather have Draymond or Klay?

I would hate to see either go but Draymond is the harder player to replace in my opinion.

Klay and green in exchange for AD?

Myers and Lacob won't let Klay and green go unless something better is out there

Replacing Klay - a two way player would be more difficult to replace, IMO.

You cant just go by stats. You dont watch the games (at least you said that you dont in this thread a week ago) so it would really be hard to understand just how important Draymond is to the Warriors. He does the things that are hard to replace. He can defend basically any player on the court, is a floor leader on offense, and probably the best rebounder on the team. I havent missed watching a game in 2 years and I truly believe you are wrong on this. Now, I do believe that Draymond wouldnt be as great on another team without the stars that surround him but he is the perfect player for the Warriors.

Klay would be tough to replace too. Not taking a thing away from him. I just think the Warriors would be hurt more by Draymond's absence.

Unless it's a sign and trade, AD could hit market. But me thinks he's building something good down there and will stay put
