Nope. Sign and trade gets him the same 4 year $88 million dollar deal that he can sign with Houston, Dallas and/or Atlanta. Golden State will pay the same for him, but the question is how much will they demand to get back to do it. If the Jazz offer is better than the Lakers, then there's no reason not to take it. In fact, the Jazz would have to take more salary to pull it off, which would give the Warriors more flexibility right now to add pieces around Dwight after the trade gets made and he signs the contract.
