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.

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.

Your right, I did say that I don't watch all the games for superstitious reasons, but I've seen enough of the team play and I agree Draymond is the perfect player for us. But, where would we be without Klay's D and 3-point shooting? It's a going to be a tough choice. I'm really hoping Draymond and Klay gives us a home town discount, but I think they'll be going for the money.

Curry klay and green aren't going anywhere.

The Salary Cap is eventually going to break that trio up.

Just trade Iguodala and Livingston. Boom you've opened up $24M in cap space.

I was responding to how the salary cap would break up our core.

If you mean who would fill in the extra roster spaces, probably veteran minimum contracts.

This is a great discussion. How long can we win championships before the team splits up.

I think we got two more years. At least I hope we do.

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 much this. The dude is the assist leader on the Warriors at almost 7.5 a game. Fans

Both Dray and Klay have said they don't want to break the team up. Let's hope they're telling the truth and they both sacrifice for the teams sake.

This team can't have KD, Curry, Klay and Draymond on Supermax deals...it's just not possible.

Dray keeps people accountable and pushes people to be their best on both sides of the ball.

That and he's an elite defender, band handler, great passer and can hit shots and score when called upon.

He's invaluable imo, the soul of the team.

Well, Klay is going to get a s**t load of money thrown to him in free agency. Draymond would probably be cheaper to sign - so there's your answer.

Lol. How much money they can get from another team has nothing to do with which player is more valuable to the Warriors. Chris Paul just got 160M for 4 years. Do you think he would be more valuable to the Dubs than Draymond because he got a max deal?
