    Not sure what the Suns' plans are. They are paying to smallish guards already. The money isn't much, but still.

    This is crazy, could Gs have matched? They literally blew the entire team up! Kd is still holding out on telling Gs its all a lie and hes going back to OK

    Lol, I still think that'd be some hilarious ****. The media didn't cry too much when DeAndre did it, but if KD did it to the Warriors you know they'd be crying about it forever, haha

    KD would instantly become my favorite player in the league.

    Sadly...he just wants to front-run...

    Barbosa is a great guy to have in the lockerroom and despite claims that he has declined seriously, he was still very productive in his minutes for the Warriors.

    This doesn't make any sense for Barbosa or the Suns. The only thing I can think of is that the Suns had cap room to burn and wanted to bring back a vet about to retire to the team where he had the most success of his career. For Barbosa, maybe this was the most he could get? But I just find that so hard to believe in this market that a career 39 percent 3-point shooter couldn't make more than that or a similar contract on a contending team.

    That's a big loss for the W's. Such a no-nonsense guy playing sixth man or ninth man or whatever Kerr needed. The Warriors will change a LOT this year. Fascinating.
