Trade Kuminga and Poole and a bunch of picks - bring in somebody.

Giannis should be the top target, sell the farm.

Steph
Moody
Wiggs
Dray
Giannis

6M Klay
Looney
GP2

Yeah it's that easy.

Now, if a Mikael Bridges type player demands a trade, I think its POSSIBLE that sort of trade could work. But even then, it probably isnt enough.

Weirder things have happened (see Lakers getting tons of valuable assets for Russel Westbrook), but it would be contingent on a perfect and unlikely scenario...bucks ownership wanting to blow the whole thing up and start over, Giannis demanding out and to the warriors. Kuminga, Poole, and firsts from now til 2029 could work if Giannis makes it so. But again, that's not gonna happen. Would also need a 3rd team to shed more salary to make room for Giannis contract...something like Draymond to Portland. They could either throw in assets to bucks, or we can take on Nurks contract and get a first back to draft a wing player. Early offseason is the best cus it's fun to dreammmm

Westbrook had value because he was on an expiring contract. This would be entirely impossible for so many reasons. First of all, the Bucks arent going to blow anything up when they had the best record in the league during the regular season. Then, Giannis would bring back so much more than Poole, Kuminga, and picks into the next decade. He makes any team he plays for MUCH better instantly and a title contender for most. OKC might be a team that has the assets to go get him but the Warriors dont. Finally, as you pointed out, a trade of Kuminga and Poole for Giannis wouldnt work due to salary. More would have to go back to the Bucks.

The other part is Klay at 6M. LOL. He will take a pay cut on an extension but I guarantee he wont go from 40+M to 6M. Garce was just talking out of his ass on this one.

That is 6th man I believe. Grace is still a potato. He wants to pay him $40M+ to be 6th man.

100% agree with this. If we see them next year hopefully Draymond can get his head outta his ass

Dray need to work on his scoring. He can't be dead weight out there.

I'm not seeing how starting drama with Lebron or AD was to going to benefit us. It certainly didn't benefit Memphis.

He didn't have to start drama. He didn't play with an edge or intensity at all the whole series.

does poole even have value at this point? big contract for a dumbass kid who plays no defense, is a turnover nightmare and basically looks like a flash in the pan with one good year

It's not a bad contract #'s wise (given what will be handed out in years going forward) but would def have to throw a few picks in to package him for like an all star caliber player.

hoping the magic get the #1 pick tonight.

just made the FO job a lot harder lol

Dray is Bron's b!tch, Kerr is Dray's b!tch

Watching the LA babies get swept will be sweet.

7'4" Victor Wembanyama got better handles than Poole lol

We have to hope he continues to work on his game and gets better.

LA Freethrowers bak again
