Sooo, I tried to run the Warriors deal through the trade machine (ESPN), and it says even Podz + Moody + Looney isn't enough. Is that because it doesn't include the Klay S&T, or will it actually be difficult to find a trade that works salary-wise (without Kuminga)?
That trade actually works just fine. The Warriors are 743K under the first apron and this trade would add 721K to their salary.

GP2 + Moody + Podz works as well.

If we take Shams word as truth, I will say that GSW are much more delulu than Jazz fans. It’s not close. There’s like a Bridges type package difference in expectations from the fanbases lol.

You mean Podz and two firsts isn’t enough?
 
I think the 3 way with TOR is an interesting thought. It’s somewhat unclear if JK is not the focus because GSW wants him badly or UTA does not like him…but TOR is a team that would obviously want him. His name is Kuminga!

It’s another pathway to a trade if Podz is not in the deal. I like Podz and think he’s worth a lot, think he’s inherently more valuable to a team in the Warriors situation so he could be hard to get.
 
Anyone given thought to the possibility we trade him and then just sign him back again?

I’m 80% joking.

There are lots of reasons why this never happens.

For the sake of our picks (if we make the trade) then I would mostly care that Lauri just doesn't sign with GSW next off season.
 
Locke said something on his pod yesterday that I don't think has been discussed. He said he didn't know if it was opinion or knowledge of the situation, but that the longer these Lauri trade discussions are going on, the more expensive his extension will be. I think it was specifically meaning whether we sign him for $15M or $24M of our capspace this year.

Locke also said that if he was Lauri he would not sign until August 8th so that he can't be traded, and he think he kind of is expecting Lauri to wait a couple of days, although I'm pretty sure that is just opinion.
