Wiggins which is harder to do then you'd think. I think it would have to be Ball plus Mark Williams plus picks for Curry and Draymond.

Charlotte needs a C after the deal but I just think GSW isn't looking to move Curry unless they get a great offer they can't say no to.

If Toronto wasn't rebuilding I would offer any pick we get in this draft 1-6 plus Quickley plus whatever else not named Barnes for Curry to bring him home to Toronto but we are in the same boat as Charlotte. We have good younger pieces but aren't at the point to contend

If Curry is gone we're looking at a rebuild either way. Ball at least gives us someone to rebuild around (and is the kind of passer/playmaker who could unlock other young guys). Ball + 2024 pick as the starting point at least gives us something to sell to fans as the future.

Let Klay walk, trade Dray for whatever he can get and rebuild around LaMelo, Kuminga, Podz, and the Charlotte pick

Would love to get Draymond included in this deal. I think those 2 + our young supporting cast Miller/Bridges/Mark could contend in the East right away.

Curry/Dray for LaMelo/Bertans/Micic works $ wise, add the 2024 1st and then as many future 1sts as the teams negotiate for.

If Curry demands a trade and includes Charlotte on his list of destinations, that's at least a deal I could live with.

I get their run it's coming to a end but let's not act like Curry can't be an elite player in this league. He's taken injured GSW teams in a stacked west to the playoffs at minimum this us Miller plus picks or Ball plus picks

Curry would only come here if Miller is on the team.

Most likely Ball would be traded if it comes down to it.


You can't harp on the point that Charlotte is his preferred team if he moves from GSW and then insist he would only come for Miller. He wouldn't be going to Charlotte for Miller, or even to win. He'd be going for the location. If Curry really wanted Charlotte he's not calling it off for Miller.

No way, if we’re trading away the dynasty core, the Hornets have to keep Grant. That’s my only issue.. reason being we’ll need something to watch next year and seeing Dray inevitably get in Grant’s face would be the best part of the next few declining years

But really, if Steph wants to go, cool. I’d rather have an avalanche of picks (starting in ‘25) than LaMelo, unless he’s moved for a different set of picks. If we’re rebuilding.. they need to embrace it without hedging

Sadly if Curry really did ask out, you can bet its probably to go to LA. But far more likely he tries to recruit to GS and finishes a lifer.
