2025-26 Team Developments: Trades / Free Agents / News / Rumors / Ideas

The clear clue to solidify what I said is always choose the opposite of what Slick says. You’ll win every time.

 

NOPE. And I mean this sincerely. He’s one of a number of people here that can get me to look at an opinion I strongly hold and take a different perspective with the “logic”, unlike yourself, and granting you have your own time and reasons constraint on “that”, he’s not adverse to taking the time to put down here for analysis.

Westbrook, at “that” time, notwithstanding.

 

Opinions: Waste of time and life.

Results: Only thing that matters.


LT, you’re gonna have to understand how things really work one of these days. And I’m gonna teach you whether you want to learn or not.

 

Opinions just like a**holes … everybody’s got them, yourself included Big Guy!

 

Giannis is closer to Luka's timeline than I initially thought. Luka is about to turn 27, and Giannis just tuned 31. So they are 4 years apart. So, a five year window of Luka at 27,28,29,30,31 and Giannis at 31,32,33,34,35 could be a dominant 5-year widow. It sounds ridiculous, and I was kind of pissed off at first, but I could understand if we still want to see what's happening with Giannis.

What would a Giannis trade look like?

Well, Giannis is a power forward. Not sure how he feels about playing center, but it seems like they went out of their way to provide this guy some stretch five's. Trying to get Turner in the trade might be pushing it a bit, but maybe Portis could be included. This is where Timme would really get an opportunity.

Trade could look like Reaves + Rui + Vando + Vincent + Kleber + Ayton + three 1st from OKC trade for Giannis + Portis + Thianissis?

Thoughts?

 

Don't choke yourself then!

 

Why would I choke myself?

 

Cause I told you not to.

 

3-team trade:

Lakers get: Giannis, Thanassis, Kuzma (salary dump), Portis

Warriors get: LeBron, Bronny, Rui

Bucks get: Reaves, LaRavia, Butler, Kuminga, Vincent, 2032 Warriors 1st, 2032 Lakers 1st, 2032 Lakers 2nd, 2028 Lakers swap, 2030 Lakers swap, 2031 Lakers swap

 

Butler looks like he could be out for the year unless the Warriors get really lucky with the post-injury MRI

Time to put in inquiries for Steph lol

 

A bit of a provocative question, but I'm curious to hear your thoughts...

How would Luka Garza, Neemias Queta, Jordan Walsh, Sam Hauser, and Baylor Scheierman have performed if they were the supporting cast of a team coached by J.J. Redick and not Joe Mazzulla?

 

Torn ACL... time to trade Steph and reset the franchise.

 

I don't think that's gonna happen.
Steph's going to turn 38 soon, much more likely he'll have a year of farewell tours and then say goodbye to basketball.

And then I was thinking: people are rightly talking about LeBron, who at 42 does that little, but he's four years younger, and this guy puts up 27 points per game with five assists. Not bad.

 

What’s the play for Kaminga now?

 

I can see a Curry to Houston for a package of Houston’s young players.

this is for Steph to be able to compete if they reset.

we don’t have those assets. They’d probably want Jabari Smith Reed Sheppard contract or Van Fleet.

Curry Thompson Durant Sengun and Finney Smith .

 

Of course a bunch of draft picks to Houston.

Milwaukee has nothing to pair him with Gianiss.

I will say this there’s no way Curry will leave Golden state. Just saying a trade I could see if he were to leave.


I’m thinking of this team. If Golden State is desperate. Give me Podzunski give me Kaminga. We get our young 3-D give we get our P.O.A. In Podzunski

well give you LeBron for Jimmy’s contract to allow Steph to compete this season. I’m just saying.

 

Max Christie last night

26 pts 8-10 from the 3 line

6 reb 2 ast

And we know he plays solid defense

It sure would be nice to have him right now with the way we are playing

 

well, maybe coaching, but also a front office with a bit more patience. for example, jordan walsh was way worse than knecht his first two years. now, he was young, so maybe that factors in. but the others were all old, like currently older than half our rotation.

but yeah, i wonder if knecht was playing in boston and hauser for us, would they look different?

one factor is a more egalitarian offense, of course. on the other hand, that requires hoop iq at all positions and a lot of organized offense. some of that is on the coach, some on the players.

i was a big max fan, but the numbers still hate him, despite appearances. i don't really understand it, either, but when he's on the floor, his isn't better on either end. last night excluded, of course!
