No one can really replace Klay, but if serious, Lavine is a good fill-in.

#2/filler for Zach and a future pick?

Why in the world would we do that?

That's a terrible trade.

Dude it was rumored we offered Wendell and #4 for #2. Thats a far worse trade for us. Honestly I doubt GSW would do it because they know Lavine can put the ball in the hoop but doesn’t offer much else.

There is no upside at all to trading Lavine on a good contract for the #2 pick in a draft with no standout.

It's pointless.

Holiday is not an A level star. They needed a Harden or atleast Beal. Holiday is 'ok' as a third option like Middleton. Can he create against elite defenses when Giannis is blanketed...I doubt it.

Looks like Bogdanovic to Milwaukee might not happen

I wouldn't be surprised to see an eyebrow raising big offer for Bogdan, this year's FA is terrible and shooters off the dribble are in incredible demand.

Agreed that MIL overpaid for Holiday because I feel like the package they gave up could've gotten them a star player a la Beal or Harden but Beal apparently is not available and Harden might not be available to them / has a beef with Giannis.

That said, Holiday is a huge upgrade over Bledsoe imo. He's more versatile on offense and he's much better on defense. His play against the Blazers in the playoffs was amazing.

Poor Rubio, back to the North. Always been a fan of the guy - I hope Minnesota finally starts winning. He really doesn't deserve this tread-milling.

I think the news about Klay will be bad, either Meniscus or Achilles . sucks because i wanted to see if they could knock off LeBrocomejoinme next season

I think Bogdanovic will see a huge offer from Milwaukee. They have to close this. They don't have any other real prospects.

Two former Bulls.

Knicks Decline Option On Bobby Portis, Waive Taj Gibson, Elfrid Payton

I can't believe Thibs waived Taj! Traitor!

We should find a slot of Taj and let him finish his career here. Maybe the Knicks still have a soft spot for Kornet.

Bad news for Klay Thompson. His career as an elite player is probably over. Two major leg injuries in back to back years is going to be tough to overcome.

Wow, terrible luck for Klay. GSW will be mediocre/bad again.

Is it time to gauge what the asking price is for Steph Curry?
