25-26 Dubs quest for 5: The NBA thread

I don't think waiting for LeBron really affects them one way or the other. If he signs here, it's going to be for whatever the Warriors have the space to offer. In other words, a scrub level player contract. I'm starting to think the front office is just actively looking to move on from this roster including Steph
as they're clearly not willing to part with future assets to build a better roster now.

True on LJ. He doesn't need the $$. Well there are no real tradable young assets worth a crap on this roster and it would be silly to trade future first rounders for another guy at the end of his career. The proverbial hamster wheel. I just can't see them trading Steph, maybe at the trade deadline to a contender.

He's not coming here.

The Warriors reportedly are not optimistic they will land LeBron James 😕 https://t.co/iDdXDjp1iK

I would find it very hard to root for him anyway. This is Steph's team and his ego isn't going to allow him to play second fiddle.

Looney to the Lakers. Nuggets release Valanciunas. Would be a good depth piece at center and won't cost much. Dubs are doing nothing.

we haven't had much to get excited about lately but I'm kinda stoked we drafted this dude.

My mistake. Signed 2 way deal with Dubs after Celts released him. He's been round the block.

This is in South Lake Tahoe for the celebrity golf tourney. I have a bunch of buddies that are there.

I may have posted this in the past but Curry has game.

Dubs OKC summer league on Prime

They have Yaxel playing as a wing.

Interdasting.

 

[Chris_77]

And now center.

 

[Madturk]

Its early but I think the Dubs might have finally got one right. Kid is just a complete player.

 

[DonkeyKilla]

He's looking the part still which is nice. 50% from 3 too.

Hired Vogel as associate head coach. Good defensive coordinator type. He improves the staff quite a bit.

 

[wilbo71]

Seems like a lot for a guy who averages 14ppg. Porzingas deal looking like a bargain at this point.

BREAKING: The Los Angeles Lakers are acquiring Walker Kessler from the Utah Jazz for unprotected first-round picks in 2031 and 2033 and first-round swaps in 2028 and 2030, sources tell ESPN. Kessler will sign a massive four-year, $130 million deal with the Lakers. https://t.co/rt8b17fEQZ

Plus he only played like 5 games last year. Odd sign and trade.
