No thanks on DSJ. He’s not good, and we aren’t in a position to be taking fliers on to-this-point scrubs potentially turning it around out of nowhere

Warriors send Russell to Minny for Wiggins, 1st & a 2nd pick...

I think Wiggins will improve and a lot into the Barnes role in GS.

I also think Towns is the problem like Perk called his soft ass out in on the Jump. He plays no defense. He cares nothing about winning. And he cried because Jimmy Butler hurt his feelings and from most accounts bitched up when jimmy kicked the starters ass in practice while Wiggins went back at him as Butler has even hinted at.

Warriors must really value the 2021 draft and must really think they can turn Wiggins around.

Well Towns is the soft one of the two and a turnstile so I think Wiggins can actually improve if with a winner. The thing is Towns played soft as duck when Butler got them in the playoffs too.

Those picks they have might buy them a big or a stretch 4 if Draymond goes to full time small ball 5.

It's a weird fit... If they thing he's iggy 2.0, they tied a ton of money up in that role... If they think he'll start, that means Curry has to defend all the good small guards in the West, or that means Green has to play C against the trees that have sprouted lately...

My first reaction was that Green was on his way out.

Why can’t he simply be what Harrison Barnes was?

I mean if I’m them and I can make money work Baynes from GS fits them if they flip Looney and it resembles the Bogut and Barnes group.

Clips give up Zubac in a Morris deal I think because Doc barely uses him. That and it’s the easier way to say hey look Trez we really value you before his deal negotiations.

He should be when Shamet is off it.

I think Caruso/THT and Zubac hit that table though

Lakers can’t compete with a 2020 first even if they included Kuz, so it’s a smart move to leak that Kuz is off the table. Both for Kuz’s mindset and for the inevitable headline that they lost out to the clips

Keeping an eye out for the Harkless buyout from the Knicks.

Maybe the Clippers package was leaked to 'look off' the lakers including Kuz... Because I thought Harkless fit really well with them and I'm not sure Morris is much of an improvement, especially if you consider the 2021 first and other pieces.
