    This member of the Warriors' brain trust is an idiot.

    We would be so screwed if they all teamed up, doesn't even matter if we end up with Melo if Curry-James-Love team up.

    Welp...he seems Warriors bound. Hopefully Minnesota realizes they're about to get fleeced. They probably won't though because they're Minnesota...

    Wolves would be fools to not attach those bad contracts (Martin, Budinger, Barea etc) to any Love trade.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but do trades ever materialize after they've been rumored for as long as this GS-Minny deal has? My better mind tells me no.

    They act like Klay Thompson is some superstar - a 26 PER vs. a 14 PER. Kevin Love gets dissed no matter where he goes.

    It's pretty unreal that the warriors are even questioning this trade.

    Not to mention the contract he's gonna command. The Wolves are willingly dealing a Top 10 player (and maybe even their lottery pick!!!) for the right to pay Klay Thompson the max?

    Jesus...I feel so bad for Minnesota fans...

    one thing that hasnt been mentioned is if Love would be willing to sign an extension with Golden State - he has said he wouldn't in Cleveland (whose offer of the #1 overall pick trumped anything GS offered) but I doubt believe there was anything from the GS end. Even if he is willing to sign an extension there they will be in cap hell soon

    Max deal for Iggy
    12-13 million for Bogut
    Steph (luckily amazing contract) 11-12
    Love - 17-18
    Martin 7

    Barnes? he is going to probably command a larger pay day soon too

    But that team is going to be a lot of shooting and no interior presence. Love plays inside about as much as Lee but Lee is a better slasher/cutter than Love.

    Hard to understate how idiotic Golden State is being by not pulling the trigger on this.

    This is the same team that turned down James Harden for Klay Thompson.

    GS, you so dumb.

    Not sure you can call them dumb for that - I dont think Steph Curry and Harden would fit well together. Also, Klay has more length than Harden and plays better D.
