What do we do with Draymond if we don’t trade 7 and 14

He already said on national tv that you don’t play rookies next to vets that want to win. I’m assuming that he is going to slap the **** out of Bob Myers if we don’t trade the pick for a proven Vet. Do we trade him at that point?

Here's what I would do

I would trade Draymond for Anthony Davis. That way we don't have to worry about technicals as much
I would then trade Wiseman for a more established C, someone like Jokic. The Nuggets will probably want to sell high on Jokic and they just got eliminated from the playoffs, so there's probably a deal there.
Now that the frontcourt is addressed, what to do with the SF position? Well Wiggins is a former #1 pick so I think teams will be really stoked on his potential development, so lets trade him for LeBron. The Lakers just traded away AD so they are probably looking to rebuild/reload somehow.

So then we run with a team of Curry / Klay / LeBron / AD / Jokic

Ill edit this post later with some ideas for how to fill the bench

Keep in mind he said 2 all-stars in the clip, I'm sure he sees us as having 3 all-stars with Klay back. So the answer is nothing changes, I don't think Dray thinks the description applies to us.

I'm still not sure we'd be the favorites. How about doing an achilles trade where we ship Klay for KD?

Draymond knows this applies to the warriors too. He is not dumb, he already said that we need a roster change and he is going to talk to management about it. He is one of the honest athletes out there

I don't disagree, I just think there is a big difference between 2 and 3 all stars and how Draymond would react if we stood pat at #7 and #14. I definitely think he wants us to make a big move, but I also think the idea he would want himself to be traded if we don't make a move is absurd.

I dunno man, I think I'd rather just trade the entire person to make it less messy

Let him go crazy in a rage room and he'll get over it

Just don't play the rooks with him I guess.

He also may have been talking more about the playoffs than the regular season.

Technically, the 7th and 14th pick would be on the second unit, so they wouldn't be playing with Dray and Steph directly
