Have to imagine they made the deal knowing that Memphis would release him and he could then go wherever he wants.
Lol these things really go over people's heads. They actually did him.a solid. They traded him to the one team that would no doubt buy him out so.he can go to.the lakers..a contender. If they really wanted to punish him they would do sent him to middling team that would of trying to hold.on.n make like.a.5 seed but no.chace to win
GS probably trading him to free up enough salary to make a pitch to Looney or Cousins. If we could lure Looney away then GS would be down two players that seemed to guard Harden well. No one else on that team can handle him, certainly not Curry or Cook.
Rox fans getting desperate after Jimmy Buckets went elsewhere. You guys are like a bride left at the altar. "Do something, Murray, even if it makes us worse!"
Given the history between the Warriors and the Rockets I doubt Iggy would want to come here on the cheap.
He had heavy interest in Houston very recently. Let's see if those prior discussions will help us after he's bought out.
I think he heads to LA (of course) once bought out.... but we were super close to signing him the last time he was a FA
Zero percent chance that GS trades anything to us ever, but ******* man they out there getting guys like Russell and **** - and we at the checkout line watching the register with eagle eyes hoping it don’t go over a certain amount. “STOP! I don’t need anymore of the items.”
He was apparently pretty blown away by our pitch to him a couple of years ago when he was a free agent. I think he was always trying to stay in Golden State and use the leverage, and in the end it worked and he got a big contract, but it was real close, he was ready to leave for Houston when we were offering the money.
