Do we have the ammo to get Siakam AND Murray? Maybe, but we'd probably have to move Wigs + JK + Moody to Toronto and CP3 + multiple firsts to Atlanta.

If you can somehow get Siakam and Murray you unload all the picks possible for it.

Only way I see it work is if:

Toronto really likes Kuminga so they end up saying yes to CP3/JK.

Atlanta wants to swap Murray for 3/D that doesn’t need the ball and a bunch of future picks.

6-7 with Dray this season, in other words a below average **** team that has zero aspirations to make up for the old guy's delusion.


This.

Expecting Dray to be the saviour is sad.

All of the young guys are my favorite players on the team after Steph and I don't even care if they trade all of them right now. Trade everyone.

Again, is Klay tradable? Who could MDJ get back? Any trade would probably keep the Dubs in lux tax hell for a while, but could they get someone who could fill both an immediate and long term need? Who? Same questions for Wiggs.

It does sound like Steph just gave the green light. Time to clear the decks...

Trade Klay for g leaguers. Who cares. Addition by subtraction. His effort level on defense is catastrophic

Maybe Moody’s calf tweak cools his trade value.

When they sat him in the third, Dubs were down by 11.

Over the next 12 minutes dubs were out scored 43-13. And, after sitting Moody the last 6 of game time, they put him back in cold in the fourth, and he got hurt after a few minutes of garbage time.

What’s not to like?

Klay is very tradable. He's a massive expiring contract. Add him, Kuminga and 2-3 picks and you get a top quality guy (lauri if OKC isn't involved IMO)

Sadly, Klay's $40M contract means Dubs have to pick up one or more contracts of close to like value, correct? So any trade means they'd better like who they get, because (with the added lux tax) the cost is going to be enormous. Right?

Can you tell me what in the **** is SIakam supposed to do in this team? You all keep repeating it but I don't see how adding another 4 makes ANY SENSE. Any at all. Yet this half place is constantly asking for it while keeping Dray. What is the logic to put 40% of your team cap on two players that play the same position?

Klay, JK, + 3 picks for Lauri, THT, Olenyk works. 2/3 I think are expiring.

Because dray is a 5 when we close. I don’t care about the other 43 minutes. They can figure it out.
