AD alone is probably more valuable than Klay/Dray combined. If you're losing AD then young players + multiple picks would be your preference.
Klay/Dray duo ain't taking you nowhere in the West.
neither are young players and multiple picks.
I think after this season the Warriors are going to think long and hard about trading Klay and/or Draymond for Anthony Davis or something. The cracks are starting to show. They aren't in trouble or anything but Lacob and them clearly want this run to be dynastic and they may need a refresh to keep the hunger.
Golden State doesn't yet have the pieces in place to replace Green and Thompson in that lineup (Jordan Bell in a year or two you could get away with. McCaw hasn't yet made that leap. On top of that, to move them up, you're decimating your bench.)
If I'm NO, it's bad enough if I have to worry about Davis 2 years from now. Now you have to worry about Klay AND Green's situations (and likely have to pay 4 guys essentially when Jrue Holiday gets... I'm not sure any owner will wanna pay that much for a team that's just there in the playoffs at best.)
and not for nothing, there's no way anyone would let Demps be in charge of that situation if and when that moment comes.
How are two All Stars crumbs, breh?? Only Boston can possibly make a better package, but even then Nola would be getting POTENTIAL instead of sure things. A market like New Orleans can't afford to blow it all the way up or they will fold and go to Seattle.
Can we stop using Seattle as a boogeyman for every team on the verge of blowing it up?
