I don't know man....Russell Westbrook would probably be the best player to ever step foot there. Actually I know he will. Sucks they can't get someone that's not a guard since they have Rozier and Graham but beggars can't be choosers.

Good move for the Hornets, they'll at least be relevant in the East with Westbrook + whatever the Rockets give up to unload him + James Wiseman.

Honestly its for the best. I'd rather they keep Westbrook and Harden then get rid of them lol. If they can get Dinwiddie and Levert for Harden they would've improved.

Mavs may have been subpar, but man that is a fun trainwreck to watch.

Wow big price to pay by Philly to offload Horford and that contract.

The Kings and Milwaukee Bucks had hoped to bring Bogdanovic the framework of a sign-and-trade to negotiate a Bodanovic contract with Milwaukee on Friday, but he will move into the marketplace to find an offer sheet or seek out other sign-and-trade scenarios, sources said.

Not a Shamet fan. Strange move one would think they’d want picks for Harden?

Rosas has reshaped the Timberwolves perimeter talent tonight: Drafting Anthony Edwards, Leandro Bolmare, Jaden McDaniels in the first round -- and acquiring Ricky Rubio.

Just curious why don’t you like Shamet?

[saclare]

Klay will most definitely play again. I think the biggest facet of his game that will be greatly impacted is his defense. As BPO said, he doesn't rely on athleticism a la Powell (who will be interesting to see on his own), but his value definitely takes a hit since he won't be able to provide as much. He's only 30.

[Thespiralgoeson]

Man, that's horrible news. I always root against the Warriors, but I wouldn't wish an achilles tear on ANY player. That's the single most devastating injury a basketball player can have.

Klay by all accounts seems like a really great guy too. I want the Warriors to lose, but not this way.

Celtics’ Gordon Hayward has opted out of his $34M deal for the 2020-21 season and will become a free agent, sources tell

[BPo001]

The Golden State Warriors are nearing a deal with the Oklahoma City Thunder to acquire Kelly Oubre Jr., sources tell Adrian Wojnarowski.

The Warriors will absorb Oubre, and his $14.4M salary into their $17.2M trade exception once the deal is done.

[sefant77]

It would cost the Warriors 82 freaking millions for one season of Oubre.

14m salary and 68m additional tax...woooof

The Bogdan thing is so weird

[tap2390]

Jesus. If I were the Warriors I’d start rebuilding instead of piecing together an incredibly overpriced ill-fitting team. Start by trading Green for assets and then using those assets to get someone to take Wiggins. Keep Curry because he’s your Dirk. Keep Klay because you have to.

They have a salary sheet that would make Cuban blush and fold.

They gotta at least try to be good or fans will tune off and they’ll lose even more money.

They’re going to lose massive money no matter what but with Oubre and Curry, they can at least hover at .450-.500

I agree. They are about to miss their window to get anything for Draymond who has mayyyybe 2-3 semi-prime years left. They do have Minnesota’s top 3 or top 5 protected next draft. So they are still in good shape. I think they are better off rehabbing Wiggins value some. Though that will be more difficult without Klay now.

I guess the trade at the draft was delayed?

According to Barkley, Draymon was averaging a triple single
