Trade Idea!
Warriors Receive: Damian Lillard (PG)
Trail Blazers: Chris Paul (PG) Jonathan Kuminga (F) Gary Payton II (G) 3 First-Round Picks
Josh Cornelissen On A Dame Trade
The math on a trade for Damian Lillard gets tricky very quickly. Because the Warriors are over the first apron (they’re over the second, but for this league year that doesn’t matter here) they need to get within ten percent of Damian Lillard’s $45.6 million contract. Without trading a member of their current starting lineup — Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Andrew Wiggins, Draymond Green and Kevon Looney — there is only one real configuration that works.

There is no other viable way for the Warriors to stack salaries to get to Lillard’s number, but the pieces involved make sense for the Blazers either way. Gary Payton II returns, perhaps unwillingly given his issues with their medical staff, but he’s an easy candidate to be flipped to a contender now or by the trade deadline. Paul is actually an intriguing addition not simply as an expiring contract but as a veteran mentor to Scoot Henderson. Jonathan Kuminga is the real prize for Portland here. A team that has seemed wholly incapable of drafting and developing forwards gets a high-upside one in Kuminga, who adds a lot of athleticism and would make for a fascinating pairing with Jerami Grant for as long as Grant is on the team.

Cp3 Jonathan kuminga moses moody couple 1st for Dame
T T T T T T T T baby
I doubt the Blazers trade Lillard in the same conference
we got the greatest 3 points shooters ever with steph and klay. with dame we will have the greatest long distance 3 points shooters with steph and dame. … financially wise, i cant see how it would happen.
Dame is from the Oakland area so you never know. Doubtful but you never know.
T
T, very likely this trade will happen since Dame also wanted to play along side Draymond.😊
I like it but not for the people we have to let go.
A big fat "P"
So who is going to the bench??
Klay going to the bench?? Probably not

STOP IT. ✋️ "The Most Entertaining team" just confirms the league is becoming a Reality Show rather than a Competitive Sport. Sure, we'll sell tickets & have a flamethrower offense; but our Defense & Bench (strength in numbers) will be severely lacking.
I'd rather giveup Moody than GP2, after all we gave up to get him back.
What we really need to focus on is getting Looney some help; and the fact D.Cousins & D.Howard are in Free Agency is befuddling to me.

T
He has a relationship with Draymond and the Bay
How about some size have enough guards
click bait…

What source from either NBA organization said that a Portland GS trade was possible? Who said GS was even offering a trade to Portland? Give a true verified source.
The trade is counter-intuitive and if done it would be worrying for the warriors because it essentially means they're undecided on the plan going forward. The issue is not the starting 5 but the bench. GSW is trying to rehabilitate its bench. Now you go and trade the little bench assets there are for a starter and potential vaaibs problem again from the start of the season cause Klay probably coming off the bench. Cause Wiggins, Loon and Dray are already undersized so then who you benching, let alone what's left of the bench?
CP yes, but no to GP2 and JK whose coming off the bench
Pass need size
Not even the slightest chance of Dame to the dubs
What about the cap, and How we would afford it. Cmon guys this is like pipe dream click bait content. Wish
I don’t understand why people so attached to JK he don’t fit the team play style. He’s a terrible ball handler, a terrible passer, and kinda ok at shooting his only real skill is dunking. His defense is okay
Trading for Dame doesn't even make sense at all😂
Can’t trade CP3’s contract until 1/2024
Why make a video based on what if.. there is no chance of going to golden state.waste of time
Steph and Dame Time would be a Magnificent thing to see. MustSeeTV to the highest degree
P … Kuminga is a good defender and getting better GP2 is a great defender … It doesn't matter how good your offense is if you don't have defense
Warriors. Need. A… BIG!!! Not another guard. Trade for Nurkic
Can you imagine steph hitting a deep three, ONLY FOR DAME TO BACK IT UP WITH ANOTHER DEEP BOMB!?!?!
What's really going on with Golden State??. Why is it so difficult to go get a big man? I mean, they act like they don't have to make any changes. I mean, it's like, what are they doing, why yall can't get it right?
If dame wants to come to golden stat, fhen its time to get rid of klay….
