Does Lauri Get Traded?

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Kuminga is a good player but will be in the final year of his rookie deal, are we offering him a rookie max extension?

Jazz will need to pay someone money to be at the salary floor.

They definitely are not. If Kuminga is in the deal, we might only be seeing 1-2 picks if we’re being honest.

I don’t care much for Kuminga anyway.

Have people seriously not paid attention to how DA operates. I promise you if the package is Kuminga a first and a swap then we will continue to enjoy the services of Lauri or find a different team.

I see a deal with Kuminga, Moody, 1 unprotected first and a swap or so coming. And we'll all be pissed off. And probably the Warriors fans too.

Lol. You’re basing this off of what DA precedence?

Sir... respectfully... you have heard of Danny Ainge right?

I have…but Kuminga is like 3 bad firsts on his own or more. If I said 4-5 first round picks or whatever, no one would blink an eye. People get too caught up in the quantity of picks. We’re talking about a high quality player and high quality picks.

Unless San Francisco has teleported to Nebraska I think they are safe.

They were never a prime location prior to Curry and I have my doubts if it will be after.

Honestly... If he is routed to a third team for the type of value some think he carries here... great... I'd rather have whatever that team is offering.

Silicon Valley Tech Boom happened. It might not be LA/Miami, but it's probably in the running for third most appealing city for NBA players.

I'll take the firsts. Kuminga is interesting but nah... he's still to theoretical to me.

Kuminga is the equivalent of like... Sexton or Lauri in the Mitchell trade. Meaning... good things to have as salaries coming your way... but don't fool yourself that you won't need to give up tons of picks too...

Does that change the weather? San Francisco/Oakland is slightly miserable, IMO. State taxes are also extremely high.

All’s I’m saying is that with a salary cap (and salary floor), being a willing spender is the difference between good and great, not bad and good.

I think Golden State will value Kuminga more than we will. I’ll take Moody and a bunch of picks.
