What do people think of Oladipo? I think between him and Danny Green are the FAs I'd be most interested in

That isn't Mills. I don't know who is left out there that does that regularly.

If the Warriors haven't used the TPMLE, Iggy is going to want it.

Ring chasers don’t sign 2 year deals, they take min deals. We’ve got 2 good ones, still isn’t enough :o

I am practically certain now, more than likely TPMLE will not be used, and there may have been no intent to used it. Possibly not offered to Batum and Mills.

There is absolutely no reason for spending 30 mil per year on the backup player. Lacob may have been spending like drunken sailor on the light years ahead team, not on the team considered in the middle of the playoff seeding. The only signing(s) I see now are the team need and fit who agree to the vet min deal. Basically the choices are possibly one or two of the Iggy, Hill, Chriss in that order.

I still believe Iggy is certainly in play and they want him if he'll take vet min. I think he is looking for more and will take time until he is certain he will not get anything more from the teams he is comfortable to join.

Fans may be dreaming of getting Ingles or S&T for Oubre, I'll be extremely surprised if any of that would happen.

Ah well, welcome back Chriss!

I don't think there was any way the Warriors would have considered using their TMLE on Robin Lopez.


I disagree. If Patty Mills turns them down, the market is drying up pretty quick. Who's left? Danny Green and Andre Iguodala?

RoLo would've been a solid veteran starting 5 for the Warriors.

The Warriors seem to have been much more cost conscious this off season because of their status as repeat luxury tax payers. Using the TMLE would have added an additional $31 million in salary and luxury taxes for this season alone. On the other hand the NBA pays part of the salary for veteran players signed to minimum contracts which saves the Warriors some salary and tax money.

Any chance Monk would take a TPMLE deal?

Would be a great spark off the bench.

Yup.. I think that's a huge missed opportunity for us. I would have preferred him to Bjelica by a wide wide margin

I think Monk was suspended by the NBA for cocaine use.

There's a great TPMLE candidate, multiple years even.

Had to say that before the "we cant acquire him, we already had him!" crowd comes in with nonsense
