Another deadline move? Or is Morey done until summer?

    I'm thinking he'll just sit tight at this point. Morey's too smart to leverage our future for a shot at the title this year, especially since the Warriors are so strong. They can't keep their big 4 together for long, though. I think Morey will stay put for now, then look to make a major move this summer.

    What do you guys think? (ABS not included)

    Noel & W. Chandler makes the most sense to me

    I think he still can and should move KJ plus a 2nd or overseas stash for another player. Maybe even Harrell too if it's for a Big. Doing either of those won't change our outlook this summer or for the future, as long as the player obtained is on a 2 year deal or less.

    other than utilizing the team to its full potential and stop running 4-5 guys into the ground, the only move they needed to make was to replace brewer. good fucin job!

    Can't get Chandler now without giving up a major rotation piece, so I don't see it. Noel could be gotten for KJ and Harrell and a 2nd maybe.

    Ariza isnt as good as Chandler. Morey needs to be bold. Ariza and a 2nd for Chandler

    I don't want to give up Ariza on that good contract to get Chandler because it weakens us overall because that still isn't a championship team yet. But I might give up Ariza for Gallo...well except his salary is even worse. Hmmm...tough on Morey for this one.

    I think we've got another move coming, just don't know what it is.
    Morey moved fast on Lou; he didn't want to lose him. When was the last time Morey made a trade two days before the deadline?

    Need a center... Noel makes a ton of sense. I believe he will warrant us re-signing him.

    Harrell,KJ,Ennis future first+second rounder is fine with me. Give him 16-18 million per year to resign. Next 2-3 years....

    Noel/Capela/Nene
    Anderson/Nene/Ariza and Dekker
    Ariza/Harden/Dekker
    Gordon/Williams
    Harden/pat

    Morey needs to get Bogut next and maybe another combo forward. All expiring contracts.

    Hard to see another notable move getting done just because of salary issues. We can't really get anyone making more than like $7.5 million unless we are trading a starter not named Capela (too low of a salary.)
