IMO if the Warriors decide to trade for Lauri, this would mean that they are trying hard to compete. Thus... anyone they consider important part of their rotation they will try to keep. Podz was their 5th highest MPG player last year and he was a rookie. With Klay gone, this will open even more opportunities for him and they will need him even more than last year. Kuminga is in a similar spot(in fact he played just barely less minutes per game than Podz). IMO the Warriors will consider both of them key to their contention and they will try hard to keep both of them. Kind of like Minny offered even more picks so they can keep McDaniels.

With that said... if there is an offer we accept, I can see it being like... ALL of their picks + Moody + filler...

Just my 2 cent...

That's where I'm at. I think Podz and Kuminga, while both still very young, will likely be valued by GSW more than UTA. Lauri + Podz/JK making a jump is their pathway to title contention. Who they prefer Podz/Kuminga, I think that's up for interpretation...but both would come at a premium IMO. I wouldn't mind a package headlined by picks versus those two as prospects.

I wont say I for sure know Moody is it, but he is far far better than Brice and can actually contribute on a NBA court and not get blown by or turn it over every other possession.

Jazz like guys who can shoot. Brice can shoot. If he's on the floor with Hendricks and Kessler, his iffy defense shouldn't matter too much. He held his ground last year pretty well.
 
I got bored and went to the Warriors board on RealGM. Now, I understand it’s RealGM, but my god almost nobody knows anything in those threads. Like… nothing. The cap knowledge is nonexistent. This place ****ing rules.

Kill me if I ever come off like a homer that thinks somebody is going to give assets for the pleasure of being a graveyard for Andrew Wiggins and his $30 million a year.

Moody can shoot just as well. Maybe he can't create as well, but he is equal or better as a shooter

Meh, the tie breaker would be we get Moody and Pods AND take Wiggins giving them some cap relief to pick up waiver wire vets.

Don't forget the Warriors have already signed some replacement type players. We have a couple more they can have if they want. I'm not interested in doing the Warriors favors.

Wiggins is a fairly negative contract. No thank you.

And he will be required on the take-back for salary matching if Lauri signs the R&E.

I think a lot of this actually comes down to how much the Warriors value Wiggins because if they want to keep him the pressure goes up the closer we get to August 6th but if they’re trying to dump him on us then they’ll just hold off and maybe come back in a few months.
