Id be willing to blow up the whole team, except curry
Let’s reboot: 1. Keep JK 2. Trade Klay for Paul George 3. Trade Poole and GP2 for Siakam. New lineup: Steph-PG-Wiggs-Siakem-Dray; 2nd unit: Jerome-Moody-Kuminga-PBJ-Loons. The 2nd unit is subelject to change with FA signings. I think if the Dubs want to go for it, they must improve wing defense and shot creation outside of Steph. These deals get it done. Before you rip me, the Klay deal helps Dubs, but also helps Clips by providing a scorer for Russ & Kawhi who doesn’t require the ball. Thoughts…
I don't think they're at all looking to trade for the twins. Makes more sense they'd be looking to get a top 10 for Lively the center from Duke.
RYAN ROLLINS will be a great player.
Kuminga threatens if he can’t have major minutes he wants to be traded. So be it……His bad azz attitude, whinning, and pouting let him go! In time I believe he will he a good player however ultimatums rarely work in your favor.
They will regret trading JK.
Im hoping they not trying to get the pick for themselves, but they have trade in mind and the team wants the high pick instead of Kuminga. Like Poole, and high pick for OG Anoby.
I think the issue is that the warriors drafted for potential vs. role players that could fill a role. They have a bunch of young talent that want to do everything vs. more high iq role players like a christian braun. Braun played minutes over mpj because of offensive IQ cutting and defense. Even though mpjs potential ceiling is way way higher. I think the warriors office thought they would be rebuilding for longer instead of instant contenders once they got healthy. I think an amen thompson would be better than a kuminga because he can instantly fill a clear roll. To play in the warriors system you need IQ not potential. Thats why they play jerome and lamb when the margin of error for winning was so small in the regular season
Kerr thinks SC30 will play until himself retires, he is hanging on a retiring squad instead of evolving to the future. This year final was won on how many 3pt shots????!! Evolve or evaporate. Curry will have a word if JK is moved
Everybody's opinions are relevant and should be respected, but many opinions are created by people devoid of the slightest minimum of knowledge and experience necessary to fulfill the task… the scrutiny 1 calendar year after a title is sad for me to behold.
Trade JP and klay get amen Thompson
Keep KJ and MM! TRADE JP, 38:29 KT & DG for Pasq or OG and big Center and couple of top role players.
Don’t sleep on those Thompson twins. One or both of them will be real stars in this league. Amen reminds me of a cross between Magic and Ja.
I'd rather have Lacob here "Jerry Jones-ing" it up than have Chris Cohan. That's for sure! This thing is close to over anyway, so I really am not putting too much thought into these kinds of moves. But getting rid of Kuminga just because he was mad about not getting playing time seems like a weird approach. Especially if you're just moving up the draft board in such a "mid" draft class.
What needs to happen is a “Monte Ellis 2.0” type of deal. Trade for a established C in their mid to late 20s like we did with Bogut. Size and a inside threat is what they’re missing.
Poole, PBJ #19 and a future 1st protected for C Bam adebayo.
The warriors get a good switchable defender that can be a great partner for Dray to pair with. He can facilitate and get you a bucket from the mid range and in.
I think both teams get what they need.
Go dubs!
The Dubs organization has really declined. And Kerr simply can’t coach young players! Kerr will just end up ignoring the young players. Why can’t Kerr learn to trust the young guys? Kerr has trust issues.
A lot of rumors coming out about deals and draft picks…but there’s not even a GM to propose all of this at the moment. Unless this is coming out of Lacobs mouth, it’s all hearsay.
Not trying to defending Kerr, but let’s not forget how struggling the warriors were since the start of last season, they just didn’t have the leeway to give enough minutes to JK/Moody/Wiseman to let them develop/make mistakes, because if they did they might not make the playoffs.
Cyrus I know it’s the lonely off season but come on…Click bait
Warriors going to regret trading Kuminga. They should trade Kerr instead.
