I don't care who comes back as long as they are better than Gui Santos.

Who can we package BP & Kuminga etc for. Podz is a 9th man. Warriors need a legit SG

The only team with outright cap space to sign Kuminga is the Nets. Kuminga needs the Warriors to help find him a new home.

Would be funny if the Warriors made a big, expensive deal not involving Kuminga and renounced his rights to make room lol.

Can any other team *create* at least $25M in cap space for a RFA offer outside of the Nets?

Not enough free money to give JK that Lacob won't match. Nets lost a portion of the cap space for absorbing Mann's contract with Boston/Altanat trade.

So really only GSW can give him what he wants.

I would be surprised if the Warriors don't outbid themselves on JK.

You cant engage in negotiations when the other party is off there rocker. Its not in good faith the way his side is operating. He looks soft in the head. The org will do the move that is in the best interest in the club. A season or two late.

You're racist thanks for being transparent, how do you block posters? Mods we're okay with this? I've been banned for saying Chum buckets....

I agree. Maybe not 14, the NTMLE, but at that point, I'd just be splitting hairs. JK has a a reasonable argument to say he's closer to Jabari than he is the NTMLE, but Jabari signed the deal that JK was offered last year, and rejected. JK's agent should be fired and banned from representing players in the league. Isn't rozier under a cloud and mann didn't even get the qo? Not that it's all on the agents but if those are your 3 big clients, you're doing it wrong.

The tropes you're falling into with these comments do you no favors.

I been reading your posts for weeks, repeating how much you like this player. I will just leave it at that.

You know who REALLY needs money to pay for all his kids? Elon Musk. Fourteen kids by four different women (that we're aware of). And, that doesn't even count the notches he likely added to his belt at various sperm banks around the world. That crazy bastard would plant his seed in your front lawn if he thought it was fertile ground for his spawn. So, yeah Bayside, if we're now making sweeping statements based on racial stereotypes, it's actually the white billionaire class enthralled by the thought of their own biological legacy who really "need money for all their kids." Thankfully, today Congress is voting to make that much easier.

This is circular logic.
Yea musk, go on. I would hope everyone agree here.I certainly do. Lots of kids running around named X. What a wierdo.

But I was writing about this one player. I tried to go search but found nothing about kids. Truth is, I thought this last season I read something about him just having a kid. And it wasnt the first. Like number 4. I couldnt find anything, so I obviously conflated with someone else. Your trying to make some arguement that is ugly, and that is not cool. I am talking about this one player that I think own statements have hurt his market, and an owner that also hurt his market by holding on to a player too long. Read into that what you will.

Not living in the states, I am not sure how your the 2nd person who says this. Its almost like people dont remember spreewell. Wasnt it him who said this? . I am not going to go look it up. Think it was spreewell the guy who choked the coach. Turned down his contract saying he needed more to feed his family. Thought people would get the reference , guess not and it offended people. Was not my intention, But go on think whatever you want.

Racism is offensive, plenty of good reasons as to why.

The fact that you don't live here doesn't make you not racist. It's weird how people from predominantly white places, use this as an argument. All I said is, you should be careful about what kind of tropes you fall for. You were not very careful and are now trying to deflect. Don't.

Perhaps spend a few minutes thinking about why it was JK that you confused as having multiple kids and not podz (another player that has made wild comments about his skillset). Or why you chose to analogize jk to spreewell, someone who was a poster child for felonious behavior with someone you've never seen or hear about doing anything inappropriate. The "I was just making a reference" part only indicates you haven't looked beyond the surface.

I do like jk, but less as a player and more as a potential player. My biggest gripe has been his various roles and his lack of development in his shooting. You have been reading this "for weeks" and decided to jump in from the top rope with "multiple kids" and "feeding his family." Just take a breath and try to understand how that looks.

No, he would be an unrestricted free agent but no one would have the money he wants on offer. He would end up having to take a small, short deal.

He would still be thrilled to not be a RFA.
