What's the logic with Hayward opting out? That's a huge pay day for 1 year. I think I saw Boston was going to trade him if he opted in- does he want to stay there and will take a team friendly deal?

He's got a huge offer from another team, no doubt.

Sounds like tampering to me.

That's all I can assume, and does make me smile in a "we're hyper aware of tampering" around here kind of way.

Going by T shirt choice during bubble play I'm going to guess that Gordie and Jaylen don't get along.

Warriors sold their soul to the devil for that KD deal
Bucks tricked me into being a diehard in 2001, LeBron is the 2nd best player ever, and pizza is awesome.

Really can't believe they did this, you just can't win this year and no fans in the stands for at least a big chunk of it. just take it on the chin again next year. I suppose maybe they're trying to move one of the other big contracts, maybe? Say a team with a bunch of space is willing to take Wiggins off for them.

Yeah they should have taken the L and tanked again. Honestly they should be looking at rebuilding. Both Green and now Klay are looking like boat anchors sadly. They had a good run.

Can't just waste another year of Steph's career.

Adding oubre doesn't unwaste the year. It was wasted the second Klay went down. Only now you're out a ton more money.

And it's not like Steph can be mad about last year or anything, he was hurt.

It at least gives them an nba player with that TPE. Something they couldn't otherwise get after today.

For 66 million, it's absurd. And they're still at best a 7/8 seed, if that. If Steph doesn't want to waste the end of his prime he should ask to be traded like all these other guys. PG13 for Steph based trade.

Hayward must know he's got a deal waiting for him to opt out.

They can waste if they want. This is a board to discuss NBA roster moves and such, I can say I think it's really dumb to way to manage their team.

You said to not waste Stephs remaining prime. That would be why to ask to leave lol. GSW is done as a contender anytime soon and Steph is already turning 33 in a few months. He doesn't have much time left.

You don’t opt out of 34M without knowing you’re making that up, the league is bogus for screwing us over with all the obvious and clear tampering that goes on
