Why did the Warriors not pick up a cheap good Center in the offseason?

Would be shocking to see them trade for Sabonis and not have give up any of those 4.

Domantas sabonis for Kuminga/Wiseman/Toscano and 2 first round picks works. Would Indy say no?

if there is a big man from Indiana the Warriors should trade for, its Myles Turner. not Sabonis

I think both of these bigmen are a bit overrated, but I like Sabonis more. Turner can block shots but overall I am not a big fan of his on either end, I think he only works in theory, but in reality Sabonis brings more. Imagine Sabonis passing with all of those shooters, could be filthy, and his defense is pretty good.

Bruh. Warriors wouldnt trade Kuminga straight up for any of those players, let alone adding Wiseman.

Bruh, Warriors are contending NOW not in 3 years.

Wiseman played the same amount of games as Greg Oden and put up nearly the same stats in their rookie season.

Warriors massively dropped the Ball by going with Wiseman over LaMelo - one of the biggest draft errors since Darko.

Getting Sabonis for Wiseman/Kuminga (both have contributed nothing to their 20-4 start) would be a HUGE upgrade and pretty much guarantee 1 if not 2 rings in the next 3 years.

Sabonis is putting up 18 pts / 12 rebounds / 4 assists on 57% shooting and you would rather have Wiseman?

Thanks for the laughs

Wiseman does things athletically that Sabonis couldn’t dream of doing. He could be a beast if he puts it all together.

This is such a flawed logic I dont even know where to begin.

Howard, McGee, Drummond, Whiteside was available. It's clear their biggest weakness is the Center position. They will get abused by Ayton, Jokic, Gobert, AD in the playoffs. Are they really going to rely on James Bustman and Kevon Looney?

I personally dont think any of those guys would move the needle for the Warriors more than Wiseman and Looney.

James "Bustman" looking pretty spry in his rehab workouts.

Wiseman's rookie year he was 19, didn't get a Training Camp or Preseason, and barely played any college games, yet people are already calling him a bust despite him still being a teenager with barely any playing experience yet.

Lets see how Wiseman plays when he's on the floor with Steph, Klay, Wiggins and Draymond and how he progresses as the season goes on. His height, size and length alone will make it harder for opposing centers like Ayton to get easy buckets inside, and his freak athleticism means he's going to get so many lobs from Draymond especially with the spacing and gravity that Steph and Klay will provide.

People need to keep in mind that he's basically got Rudy Gobert length with a standing vertical leap that allows him to touch the top of the backboard. Gobert was nothing his first season, at 21 years old. Wiseman was 19 his rookie year and has all the time in the world to reach his potential, provided he works hard (which I think he's proving he does).
