Warriors Insider Anthony Slater (The Athletic) On Zach LaVine Trade Rumors:
“LaVine is viewed by some within the organization as the safer option. At 29, he’s five and a half years younger and some $6 million cheaper than Butler this season, though his contract
extends longer and he’s had some recent health concerns. There are risks all over the board.”

Warriors Trade Idea For Zach LaVine:
– Warriors Receive: Zach Lavine (G)
– Bulls Receive: Andrew Wiggins (F), Gary Payton II (G/F), Kevon Looney (C), 2025 1st Round Pick (Prot.)

NBA Insider Anthony Slater (The Athletic) On Warriors Trade Rumors:
“There is locker-room concern about who the Warriors would send away in a hypothetical trade for a high-salaried player, such as Butler or LaVine. Andrew Wiggins, who has had a productive season well worth his $26.2 million cap figure, is the obvious salary match, with Gary Payton II ($9.1 million) and Kevon Looney ($8 million) profiling as the type of building-block expiring salary that trade partners covet. Wiggins is a 30-minute per night two-way piece, and all three are central figures to the locker room’s culture.”

  1. T. They desperately need his shot creation and scoring. Dubs system can make him a better defender the way they transformed wiggs when he was traded to them. He also played for kerr on the Olympics back in the day, so I'm sure Kerr would know if he's capable to defend

  2. Can everyone wise the fuck up and start talking about trading Draymond and not Wiggs? Why the fuck is everyone ignoring this painfully obvious scenario???

  3. No point in trading for Lavine if you’re giving up Wiggins. You need Steph, wiggs, and Lavine together in the same lineup to actually improve the team.

  4. Make buddy hield training practice in 2025 with Steve
    Kerr in shooting 3 pointers and shots and ally oops dunks in 2025

  5. NOOOOOOOO

    If Wiggins has to go better to do nothing.

    Warriors get:
    – Lavine
    – Vucevic

    Bulls get
    -Draymond
    -Kyle Anderson
    -D Schroeder (expiring)
    – Buddy Hield (or expiring GP2)
    – Looney (expiring)
    – Moody

    Plus 1 or even 2 FRP (and even the 2 second)

    Or

    Warriors get:
    -Lavine

    Bulls get:
    – Schroeder (expiring)
    – Kyle Anderson
    – Looney (expiring)
    – Buddy Hield (or Expiring GP2)
    – Moody

    Plus 1 first and maybe the 2 seconds…

    If they want more than one first I'd accept but getting both Vucevic & Lavine shipping Draymond out as well.

    3rd scenario.

    The same trade for Lavine.

    And also

    Indiana gets:
    -Draymond

    Warriors get:
    -Myles Turner.

    plus draft compensation.

    Those are the winning moves, without completely sacrificing/mortgaging the future.

    Line ups will be

    Steph
    Lavine
    Wiggins
    Kuminga
    Vucevic or Myles Turner

    2nd unit

    -Pat Spencer
    -Podziemski
    -Lindy Waters or GP2/Hield (one in this scenario will stay)
    -Gui Santos
    -T. Jackson Davis / Quentin Post.

    -Jackson Rowe

    -They promote Kevin Knox

    … And maybe someone else from Santa Cruz to complete the roster…

    All while getting younger and hopefully better.. and actually a bit cheaper while maximizing Steph.. even if it means using almost all the picks, however if they will not give Kuminga the max contract he wants, better to pack him off in one of the deals to save some draft compensation.. or even to get something in return.

    Steph and the warriors have a 5th one if given a fair chance.

  6. Kerr had good plan against OKC other nifht. NEITHER TEAMplayed much defense.OKC had curry double teamed. BUT kerr said give shy his pts. But stop everyone else.Also he told Looney we r gonna use yu as a scorer and dont have to worry about rebounds. I think this surprised OKC and they didnt know how to co.pensate for Looney and GP2 bei g used as primary scorers ! !
