Probably. It will be interesting to see how they round out the rest of their roster though.

Anyone who can hit a three at a decent clip is all the Lakers will need. Minimum bums will absolutely be enough for a Large Idiot/Kawhi/LeBron big three.

Rejoice, verb! D-Wade and Zach Lowe like the Bulls' moves.

I've always liked Thad. Tomas Satoransky is very Bullsy. Not sure what they see in him other than he is a white pg?

I really hope they can keep David Nwaba.
Think they deal Love this year?

I think only if the right deal comes along. They aren't going to trade him just to get money off the books. They need someone with talent to play alongside the young kids and make it easier on them.

Some contending team will get desperate and trade some good assets for him mid-season.

Heat fans are breaking out the pots and pans over this one.

Smart to get rid of Whiteside before Jimmy shows up and starts shit.

Monkey_Driven · Post by **Monkey_Driven** » Mon July 01, 2019 5:07 pm

Whiteside would probably just be crying in the corner once Jimmy got there.

A lot of talk about the warriors looking to trade DLo right away. My prediction is Curry will be exposed under a high usage workload next season. Obviously his numbers will be very good, but his body won't hold up.

I don't think I would use the word "exposed". It would be unrealistic for most players to withstand the offensive burden he will have next season. This trade was to ease that burden AND to have an asset they can later trade. Given the options available to them after losing Durant, this is about the best thing they could have done.

Isn’t that why they got Russell? Klay will probably be back by February.

Local reporter says Riley is obsessed with Bradley Beal and that the Heat could be willing to take John Wall to make it happen.

the warriors are retiring KD's number. i mean, he's probably their all time best player, it just seems a bit premature. let some time pass ffs.

As a Wizards fan, I couldn't care less if they got rid of Wall. But I love Beal and would hate to see him go
