Kawakami has gone mad. He’s just speaking B.S. Who’s a 7 footer who can score and we can get realistically? Ans- no one

Oh wow, what a revolutionary idea!

Damn I don’t think anyone thought of that. I think Joel embiid would do the trick right. Why not just get him

For fuck sake. They need a rim protector and a true second option.
ImTheBestNerd
If you add a couple inches Siakams kinda 7ft tall
swerrve
Coulda had Javale
eexxiitt
“some talk” lol.

They should trade gp2 for Wiseman!
Vallerie_09
Aka bring my boy Wiseman back
imminentjogger5
isn’t Kuminga 7ft?
Brilliant-Worry-6717
I think it’s possibly Kelly olynk which honestly doesn’t make sense imo I feel like that’s a similar player to saric

Not 7 foot but the should go get Kevin Love. He’s a guy that can clear up the lane with his outside shooting ability, and alongside Looney could create an effective defensive presence in the paint. I’m looking at Nic Claxton too.
From there you need a better wing. If you can get Siakam, cool. But Lavine would be a good pickup too.

limiting the targets to just 7′ … there aren’t many realistic options
but here are “bigs” who i think kerr could play at the 4/5 spots in the warriors system who could be available as there names have been thrown around NBA circles as possible trade candidate before next month’s trade deadline who could fit that description of a big man who can score
vucevic (6’10”) – 16.7 ppg with the bulls
markkanen (7’0″) – 23.6 ppg with the jazz
allen (6’9″) – 14.8 ppg with the cavs
turner (6’11”) – 17.6 ppg with the pacers
capela (6’10”) – 11.6 ppg with the hawks
stewart (6’8″) – 10.4 ppg with the pistons
collins (6’9″) – 14.9 ppg with the jazz
washington (6’7″) – 13.0 ppg with the hornets
olyyk (6’11”) – 8.2 ppg with the jazz
toppin (6’9″) – 11.6 pgg with the pacers
smith (6’9″) – 10.3 ppg with the pacers
though the way the jazz and pacers are playing right now … would they even trade players off their rosters

Woah great analysis

Why 7 footer
SA has a 7’4 can go coast to coast and shoot the 3. Let’s get one if those

Ayton.

Maybe that Kevin Durant guy would be okay on the dubs?
wafair
I haven’t seen Olynyk enough to give him much attention, but I read not too long ago about how he would fit well with the Warriors. Good defender, good passer, can score and rebound. Good team player. And he’s playing behind Markkanen, so the Jazz would probably deal him. And apparently he found someone’s dog and tracked down the owner, so that’s a plus for his character.
bigricebag
Ah yes, let’s go to the NBA store and snag one of them 7ft scoring dudes. There should be plenty!

Boogie (DeMarcus) cousins?

You mean like Kevin Durant? Lololol

“there has been some talk” – yes the gremlins living inside of his rectal cavity are having a conversation.
weasel words in reporter-speak that mean absolutely nothing.

So Myles Turner?
He’s not seven feet, but I would love Jared Allen
guesswhodat
Can we persuade Bogut out of retirement? Loved watching that sweet Curry Bogut PnR…
ELX13
Lauri Markkanen.
SuperMagpies
It has to be Lauri Markannen right?

Wiseman is available #justsaying
TechnicalSample4678
Vucevic is doable but he’s older now
JFlocka
All that talk of not needing size and offensive skill from the center position this past offseason to now admitting it lol.
happykid888
Allen or Mobley please
by_yes_i_mean_no
Sounds like Joe Lacob is trying to GM again. Going after DeAndre Jordan, Dwight Howard, DeMarcus Cousins, and using the #2 pick on James Wiseman.
What 7 footer who could score did they have two years ago when they won the title? Why can’t they just stick to their formula and know that when it really matters, Draymond is going to be the center? They could use a guy who eats minutes at center like a Zaza to keep Draymond in good shape, but they don’t need more than that.

Hilarious that we had wiseman and didn’t let him play and now he’s probably what we need most.
