Would love that, but CP3 has remained adamant that he wants to finish his career near Los Angeles (near his family) and supposedly the Clippers and Suns are discussing deals with him.

To be fair, Rod says as much in his column. But, he says we should try.

We are giving up Herb, no doubt.

Gonna be some VERY upset people around here tonight

On this rumor, once again, he who shall not be named said something to the effect of "yall don't even know the half of it" with a laughing emoji

Ok. People who like his moves are "kissing his arse"? Hyperbole much?

I don't think anyone has praised his moves. More like rationalized his moves. Or chosen to look on the bright side.

I’m dead serious, if there’s anything that resembles a Herb for Kuminga trade, where do we line up for the riot. The fan voice needs to be heard if these a holes go and give away everything good that we still have.

If we are going after Kuminga, it has to be a sign and trade, we have to send out money of significance, and the Warriors are already linked to Herb. So...

Well, Mac just flat out called out the trade and the numbers "hypothetically"

We will see if he is right

(Herb to GSW, Hawk to 3rd team, Contract starting at 24 mill per year)

I just wonder about the fit with Kuminga. My biggest concern from listening to JD’s pressers is that he never talks about the fit or vision of players. It’s cool they are talented and/or high IQ players but how are you going to develop them and fit within the system.

Can someone please ask Joe now how he plans to play Zion, Queen, and Kuminga together???? Am I taking crazy pills?

Definitely a bizarre fit

The spacing would be legendarily bad, and the defense might be worse

If that's the plan, my guess is that they plan to play Fears a lot early on with Poole at the SG position. That's why a vet makes sense. And Queen will play center behind Missi.

Not to mention Jordan Poole too.

None of this makes sense though still. This would use up all of our free space up to the luxury tax. No new big man. No lead defender now. Would be a last and final devastating blow to this roster.
