Gross for warriors. The kanter deal is just so large. I think we need to find a way to void it at cost of several picks to the GM or something.

I won't lie, there is an element of sordid pleasure I get from that aspect of the deal.Oregon Ownage wrote:This trade will be evaluated/graded after the draft when Warriors make their picks but the team they have now is what they will have moving forward.
Grizzlies get a great talent on a great deal but gave up a potential top 3 pick but more importantly, traded that Kanter contract.
Lets see how it plays out but thanks Warriors for making my division tougher
He is in my conference though, so I'll get a taste of it later I'm sure.

Re: Golden State Warriors - Vancouver Grizzlies
I agree and I would have done that too but we cant arm chair GM every decision. There are many ways to go about things with your team and Warriors have all their picks, picked up a lotto pick for a rebuild so it makes sense in that way.UOducksTK1 wrote:Or he could let McLemore and Jennings come off the book, build around Ingram, take advantage of your cap space, enjoy your top 7 pick, and not have the crappiest contract in the world on your team. That makes way more sense.Oregon Ownage wrote:As a fellow GM I agree. Seems to me Warriors want to rebuild and a projected top 3 pick with their own pick hovering around top 7 is a good base to start said rebuild. The Kanter contract will be off the books when those picks are expiring so for a long rebuild it is ok trade off esp. if he gets a star with those picks.UOducksTK1 wrote:Let's trade perhaps the best player 25 and under, and the franchise of our team for the worst contract in the league, and for two decent young prospects that aren't even the top 3 young prospects on their own team.
i will admit, the Pacers pick is better than I thought at first glance. So if that ends up being a top 3 pick, then at least that's something for Ingram.
But regardless of value, this deal makes 0 sense for the Warriors.
To get Kanter off the books, Grizzlies had to park with a prospect or high draft pick so that makes sense but I would do that all day in getting Ingram.
Not to mention, he didn't even try to shop Ingram around to see what else is available.
Yucky.
We can agree/disagree on every trade and have discussions around our thoughts on them but I dont want it to turn into other GM's telling them what they should do.

Sure. Hopefully Bean learns from this and understands our points though.

Re: Golden State Warriors - Vancouver Grizzlies
Obviously the contract is not a problem. He's been traded about 5 times since he was signed to it. If someone is crazy enough to sign this contract they should get what's coming to them.

Looking back, this became:
Ingram for Dort, #2 pick, +.
Think that's a pretty good exchange.

Re: Golden State Warriors - Vancouver Grizzlies
But he's in rebuild mode anyway. By the time he's ready to compete, Kanter will have a year left, a juicy expiring that'll be much easier to move.lukeyrid13 wrote:Except that the + is kanter , LoLpistolpetejr wrote:Looking back, this became:
