Denver tried to flip a dirty brick
It's moreso a case of supply and demand right now. There aren't many of his player type on the market right now as playoff teams aren't really looking to get rid of these kinds of player's, especially ones one pretty team friendly contracts. Then you add the fact that a lot of these playoff teams probably feel like the gap isn't as great as it has been previously to being a real contender. So if they can add a piece like Grant, that has played the role player role with good defense AND now shown that he can give you 20-25 if one of your go to's is having an off night, then he's seen as a guy that can get you to that next level where your a legit contender, or get you a leg up on the other contenders. I'm not saying it's true, but the sentiment is understandable and he is a bit of a commodity right now. I know Detroit better get something for him worthwhile cause his stick will never be hotter.
I know you have an axe to grind when it comes to Dray, but his impact is irreplaceable for the Warriors. Nobody can replicate what he does on defense and nobody can replicate the chemistry/bond he has with their franchise centerpiece (never mind the fact that Steph would never in a million years agree to it). There’ll never be a duo as impactful as him and Steph in our lifetime; you ride them until the wheels fall off.
In no world, this one or the one you live in (the world where Wiseman is of more significance), is this even remotely worth entertaining the discussion of.
Jerami Grant put up 20 on a bad team and these franchises are slobbering over him 
Bol getting the last laugh tho… get surgery and now Denver on the hook
I dont think hes great on defense,remember the playoff series in the bubble vs Miami,he was awful....Hes like Ibaka he will block shots but outside the paint hes bad in space,doesnt know how to use his size as a deterrent...
Denver tried to pull a fast one… so instead of plying garbage minutes like Malone likes to play him he gets surgery and do t have to be near the team or Malone.. Denver knew he had a foot issue but didn’t make him get surgery all this time and just to sell another team a player they knew wasn’t healthy…
In his defense (no pun intended), he's improved a lot defensively since then and isn't as inconsistent about it as I used to give him criticism for. I don't think that he is as meh as he used to be, but I still think that Sabonis is better overall player and asset.
My thing is if that's their asking price for Turner, then what are they wanting for Sabonis? Neither one is that dude or even a star player, which is why Pritchard no problem saying what he said a few weeks back.

His role should more Aaron Gordon than being the #1 guy on a team. That's why teams want him.
Denver traded for him that reason but he wanted to be more than that hence ending up in Detroit.
The God Poster
LWO representa
This is how you ruin your rep around the league as a GM. League should be forced to step in for Denver blatantly tryna pull a fast one.
Whatever picks they have the next 4 years should be given to the Lakers
He doesn’t want that he wants his shots
If that's his mindset, then both him and Myles Turner need to stay exactly where they are as that's what trading teams are going to ask of them.
