I'm hesitant to do any big trades. We've done the smart rebuild - no bad contracts, young guys at every position. I would rather be patient, let these guys play together for a few more years - they will get better individually and certainly as a team. Maybe get a few key free agents (not superstars but solid role players). And keep our draft picks, even if they are in the mid teens-early twenties.

Blow it up for Curry or the Brow? Sure. But otherwise, let's keep on the path we are on.

Sure, but first we should trade Dinwiddie and Tolliver for Anthony Davis. :lol:

He is the best Shooting Guard in the NBA if you value defense.



I'm aware. I also think he's a level below Curry / Lebron / Durant / Westbrook

Blow what up? A brand new team? This is going to be a damn good team down the line. They can play with anyone and are incredibly versatile. Give them time!

The addition of Harris has been amazing so far and this is just the start of something special and Stan is only going to add to this team in the offseason.

If we make the playoffs it would be great experience for all the young guys and players who have just not experienced them yet but this team as constructed I feel in my honest opinion could be damn good.

I still cant believe how much talent we are loaded with now.
