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

Kuzma's agent would laugh you off the phone. He opted out of 13 mil, you want him to take 10 for a short term stay? If you wanted him to sign a short deal, you'd probably have to offer closer to 30M AAV not 15

And I'd be laughing at whoever offers more than that

 

[VegetasHairline]

As long as you’re not crazy enough to admit to this being a “good use” I’ll take that answer as at least a vote of non confidence

Everyone is focusing on what Poole was last season and with good reason. What's to say he doesn't turn into the player he was or a better player? A change of scenery can definitely help. I'm not trying to play contrarian either. Poole is 24 years old.

Joker got teams panicking out here

Aint been a week since Bob Myers been gone

And I'd be laughing at whoever offers more than that

It's completely ridiculous to ask him to sign for Mo Bamba/PJ Tucker money. Especially when a new CBA was signed and a new media deal is coming up in a year or two.

.....this will give them bytch ass golden state fans more fuel to cry about....

 

[trick]

No Poole
No Wiseman
No LaMelo

No future

Still got Kuminga and Moody playing a whopping 20 and 13 mins per game

Wizards have no one to pay so how much poole makes isn't really relevant currently, they'll move him if need be.

This is shytty FO logic 101 … “hey we have no one to pay so let’s take on a terrible 4 year contract from a player that just had a regression last season”

I thought the idea was to clear cap space because of how valuable it was ..not it’s hey who gives a fukk about cap space really Lol which strategy is it?

He wasn't actually on the market, nobody inquired about poole really, this was mostly sudden. I think if you put up a sign that said "Poole For Sale" you'd get better offers than what they got for Beal and KP off of youth and potential alone.

Bruh what? You actually believe that The Warriors just rolled out of bed today and decided to trade Poole to the wizards without talking to anyone else? There’s nothing to indicate you’d get any better offers.

I’m not mad at this trade at all. People already have amnesia to how much Poole was a liability in this past playoffs. The corpse of CP3 couldn’t have contributed any less than Poole did.

 

[StatUS]

I am trying to imagine CP3 running around screens and shyt like Curry at 38

 

[dora_da_destroyer]

noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

 

[Windows 91]

Flipped Poole for nothing, god damn He'll at least get to shoot as much as he wants in all the blowout losses this season.

Poole about to put up one of the most epic, inefficient 30 ppg seasons we've ever seen

Lmao that’s what they gotta hope for …maybe it’ll entice another team
