They were going to have to pay the piper at some point and it conveying this draft was the best case scenario.

Yeah, we differ there a little ... I'd rather have the 1st pick in this draft and convey next year.

Do you want it as an asset or for a prospect?

Houston wants to trade out of #3....curious to see what they get for it or if they can get anything at all.

We could do the difficult and unpleasant thing and fully blow it up, trading Draymond for that 3 pick and stuff, then trading the others after

Trading Draymond for the 3rd pick doesnt blow anything up, except possibly the HOU locker room.

We didnt make the playoffs this year, probably wont with or without Draymond.

You see this kid from GCU? Mcglothan? He can dunk well. Saw were bringing him in for a workout. Anyone see him play?

Got to confess, I haven't ever watched a GCU game!

He has good ht/weight combo, and can jump in the highlights.

On the other hand, for a smaller school guy I would like the rebound numbers higher.

I think number 3 pick is too much to give up for aging Draymond. If you know you will draft a Wiseman level draft bust then trade the pick for Draymond.

Houston is young and Draymond may only have 1 or 2 high quality years left so the timelines do not match up unless Houston is on the verge of winning a chamionship and Draymond puts them over the top. I don’t think Houston is that close to winning a championship. Houston should draft the best player they can and hope the pick works out and try to win the 2028 championship.

For a bad draft the prospect is probably better than you can get in a trade. It will be interesting ... my guess is they end up not trading because they don't get offered enough back just to avoid the rookie contract.

I'm tired of players who don't rebound

... it's about effort, particularly offensive boards (and I value them more than defensive) and the fact that as his minutes went up his total boards didn't climb at a similar rate is not a great sign.

It doesn't make sense but I like Ryan Dunn, and I've seen some rankings of him in the high 40s because of his lack of offense.

I like that list ... pretty much in that order.

I wish we could know who would be gone when the Warriors get on the clock now so we could avoid time spent on non-options

I'll trade Draymond if you trade Steph.

Good grief, it’s like Curry can’t win without Draymond with some of you guys.

He had him this season and they are watching the playoffs just like us.

Should have let big mouth walk last year.

He's probably off the board for a lot of teams. Not a lot of teams can survive with such a negative on offense.

It's tough to find a vocal leader. The Warriors lost a lot when they lost Iguodala and Livingston, I think that's part of why people are so afraid of losing Dray.

He's not a TERRIBLE passer, and he's not static on offense ... he just has no clue on scoring

I don't know that I've ever seen a player who is SO GOOD on everything on defense and hustle and SO BAD on offense

Where could ever possibly find us someone to lead us to the lottery if not Draymond Green.

Bingo.

Last season was one season too many if you ask me.

If you're trading Draymond you're saying it's over. Might as well go all in at that point.
