We keep hearing Cho might rather make a trade....

For a hail mary, I'd say Klay Thompson. He's been talked about in trades and we need three point shooting. But I really have no idea for legitimate guys. Demar Derozan is probably the right kind of player. Above average, not great, with some potential to get better and a contract that's a bit too high.

Eric Gordon,

They better send a draft pick and take Hendo. His contract is atrocious.  

 

Also, Waiters from Cleveland could be a possible fit, would probably cost a bunch though.  Probably Zeller and a 1st rounder... that might not even do it.

Well all I know is this better not be it. We need to show Al that we are committed to building around him.

 

At this point that Hayward offer just seems like a "hey at least we tried to bring a big name in" type of thing.

Hornets- Klay Thompson, Kevin Martin

Warriors- Kevin Love, Corey Brewer, Ronny Turiaf

T-Wolves- Harrison Barnes, David Lee, Gerald Henderson, Cody Zeller, 3 1st rd picks (2 GS, 1 CHA)

 

I don't think the Warriors do this type of deal without getting Klay.  

 

Don't get me wrong, I would love it, but just don't see it. 

 

I could see flipping Barnes and Klay and maybe removing Hendo from the deal, and it might would work.

The problem is in these three team trades guys that are enticing to us are also enticing to a team like Minnesota.

i.e. Waiters, Thompson etc...

Barnes might be available though.

The real problem...

Minnesota is acting like Love is Michael Jordan & asking for way too damn much.

Cleveland is only offering scrubs & won't include the one piece needed to get him (Wiggins).

Golden State isn't willing to part with the one guy Minnesota wants (Thompson) & is only offering average players.

Hopefully someone caves and we can help them out, while still getting a quality player in the process.

    • Dang, we might not be able to create the same magic from last year!
    • If we were a solid winning organization most of us would have no problems with this selection. We would have had a capable starter in place to allow him to be eased into the rotation. If were told prior to the draft that he had been completely cleared health wise, we "probably" wouldn't have a ton of reservations about this selection. If we had picked this young man on Day 3 of the draft most of us would have no problems with this selection because we wouldn't have had to use draft capital to move up and get him. Unfortunately, none of the above were true 1)  We were a terrible team in 2023 and needed an immediate impact player. 2)  He was hurt near the the end of the 2023 NCAA season. We traded up to get him even though we knew he wasn't medically cleared to play in 2024. 3) When training camp started we were hearing stories that the knee wasn't ready. That alone should have raised some red flags. I personally would have red-shirted him in 2024 in order to have him ready for 2025. We had Chubba as our lead back and other guys to fill the #2 and #3 spots on the depth chart. There was no need to rush Brooks unto the field in 2024. Here's our draft history in the 2nd round between 2021 and 2024 2021 TMJ 2022 No draft choice. We picked Matt Corall in round 3 (#94) as our only Day 2 pick. 2023 Jonathan Mingo 2024 Jonathon Brooks. We have taken 4 skill players on Day 2 of the draft for the past 4 years who have contributed absolutely nothing to the offensive side of the football. 3 are no longer on the team. Two of them are no longer in the NFL. One  could possibly never start a game due to a knee injury. This type of poor drafting is why this team has been so bad for the entire decade. 
    • Even limited as he was I still don't think they have replaced his production, and not just the sack stats. The games Clowney missed it was very obvious what his value still was. Risky move but whatever. They only had 32 sacks last year and if that drops then it's going to get ugly. I see the improvement in run stopping but not in pass protect in any way.
