Washington and Golden State are close on a trade sending Chris Paul to the Warriors for Jordan Poole, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium

Warriors playing keep away from the Lakers

I imagine Washington would have waived him and Lakers would have signed him for pennies

 

[Morethan1]

Again @FAH1223 yall doing work

 

[RubioTheCruel]

They definitely needed a backup point guard but a 38 year old making $30M a year

Unless they plan on starting him

oof. I dunno about that. Makes way more sense playing 20ish mins off the bench.

 

[Crude]

What haul were they gonna get exactly? This ain't 2K.

I would have wanted young rotational bench players, draft picks and/or a big.

Warriors needs to get younger. Klay and Dray are washed up and adding another washed up injury prone guy isn’t helping that.

They could have got some decent young players I suspect this was a knee jerk reaction to dump Poole and also keep vets like Dray happy.

Warriors run is probably over as a title contender, I could very well be wrong but this move screams middle of the pack playoff team.

 

[G-Zeus]

i guess they keeping Green??

 

[CSquare43]

Damn, how I'mma hate CP on my own team?




I'm not even mad at it tbh, CP takes Andre's spot and hopefully can play enough to help. Poole gets a new spot and we look to see what else we can shake loose...

 

[Left.A1]

They’ll trade his expiring at the deadline and save a bunch of tax money

 

[FAH1223]

And if he continues to play like he did last year? A 4 year 130 million dollar anchor around your neck

What does that even mean bruh …they just spent 35 million a year on Jordan Poole ..why do you think they’ll spend/leverage that $65 million wisely?

Poole makes $30M breh.

They can get another distressed asset for picks

 

[Jplaya2023]

Will Chris Paul sabotage this team to stop steph from winning #5 even at the expense of Chris getting 1

 

[Morethan1]

 

[jaydawg08]

So a closing lineup of :

CP3
Steph
Klay
Wiggins
Green (if he leaves than Looney)


That team gets cooked on the defensive end by A LOT of teams backcourt

Okay but what team are you getting all that from? Who is giving that up for Jordan Poole? His value was low.

 

[CSquare43]

Wow chris paul traded to be the backup to the man who stole his endorsements, his rings, his love, and his place in nba. I hate it had to be him

 

[RubioTheCruel]

i guess they keeping Green??

100%. Steph's 35, I assume they're gonna try to put another title on the board and if so re-upping Draymond makes the most sense
