Multi-team deal

Draymond and Wiggins out
Bradley Beal and PHX 3 FRP's they just acquired in.

PHX
Butler

Miami
Expiring salaries

4th, 5th or however teams it takes.
Draymond and Wiggins

Then trade Curry for 3-4 first round picks.

Fire MDJ and hire Presti.

Keep Beal as the ultimate tank commander.


For sure if they turn to blow up mode.

Warriors enter in a three-way deal with Suns, Miami. Dunleavy needs to broker the deal that get's Butler to Suns, Durant to Warriors and Kuminga or Wiggins, Salary and two firsts out to get it done.


Butler wants to go to PHX to play WITH KD.


Well then we're all screwed lol

I hope Butler wants to go to Phx too.

I rather keep Wiggins at a cheaper price for probably longer. And also means Phx is screwed waiting on Butler, hoping Beal will wave his no trade clause... which only means a chance that KD might be on the market. Now I trade the house to get back KD than Butler.

If your Suns and you KNOW you have zero shot a chip WITH Durant this year AND he has the one more year on the contract.....
...don't you take Kuminga, Podz, SALARY and two firsts?

There are no win-now moves. But you can try to find the right mix of players and hope they metastasize into something great

but I don't have any hope in our FO to be creative enough to do something like that, they prefer the lazy trade for an all-star route, and Kerr to me has lost his fastball.

we might be cooked boys

listening to "Locked On Warriors" and host said Durant was downgraded to DOUBTFUL for a game tonight. Hmmm....

If he comes, I just wish Warriors could be keep Wiggins for the on ball defender and big two guard over GP2 as starting guard :(
Curry, Wiggins, Durant, Draymond, Looney > Curry, GP2, Durant, Draymond, Looney

How are Dray, Looney and Wiggins helping when guards blow past Moody? They have to help off their man and it’s drive and kick to wide open shooters that have been killing the Warriors for the past few years.

What “trade off” is Moody bringing to make up for that?


Guards aren't blowing past Moody any more than they blow past Podz or Buddy. Moody has more size and switchability than Podz or Buddy. He is a much much better shooter than GPII. I don’t know what copium you’ve purchased but these things should be obvious.

The funny thing (and predictable) is once Kerr actually (finally) makes the right adjustments guys like you retcon all these narratives anyway to protect him.

"We all knew Moody made sense but he's improved, bla, bla".


Podz, the guy drawing more charges than anyone is constantly getting blown by? No. He actually can stay in front of his guy. Also can handle the ball and is a solid shooter-two other things he has over Moody. Moody shoots better than GP2, GP2 is a better cutter on offense and on ball defender on defense. Hield I’m fine with being dealt today,

No coincidence Moody went on this run while Dray and JK have been out and he’s had to play more 4. Feel free to use “cope” “copium” or whatever else try hard term you got, but watch games sometimes. Got no problem with Moody, glad they extended him, but he’s not the answer at the 2 against most teams imo
I didn’t realize Podz was a better shooter than Moody. What is that based on?

I'm guessing nothing will happen. And I don't know how PHX can make multi-player trades as a 2nd apron team. And it would be dumb for Phoenix, makes no sense, and is all likely just twitter fingers getting engagement.

But in a fantasy world, Isbia is our guiding light in trading Draymond/Kuminga + filler for KD/min guys.

I saw that Draymond and Phoenix connection too.

If it goes down like that... dang... we get to keep Wiggins and end the Draymond roller coaster ride.

Loon/KD/Wiggs/PG2/Curry

Only time Kerr can get PG2 and Loon starting together.

Moody stans are troubled souls. Did you go to his basketball camp or something? Moody is a solid spot up 3 point shooter. Podz got a few other shots imo

I’ve seen Moody shoot off movement many times already this season. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen Podz do it. I’ll have whatever you’re smoking. Must be good stuff.

Wiggins and dray, both probable. I'm not sure wiggins is even on the flight to Utah. Jk is on the road trip.

Mjd really going to get Beal for dray and wiggins isn't he.

I actually don't mind Beal, he fills in the SG position, contract is awful, he is younger only 1 year and PO after this. As long as we can get huge incentives to get him and good players like Highsmith and Ryan Dunn to kind fill in the gaps for Wiggins. Keep Looney, Moody/ GP2.
Would trade JK for high IQ players and picks from Nets to reset that contract.

Both probable? Were they hurt

Hoping we can do something like

GSW: KD, DLee
MIA: Dray, TJD
PHX: Jimmy, Kuminga, Burks, Schroder

Jimmy gets his wish lol

There’s no way though. Dubs are better off trading Draymond/Kuminga than Wiggins or Wiggins/Kuminga. That’s wishful thinking.
