    Would you trade Ant in a deal for Hayward if we could also land there draft pick?

    no, too much age and injuries. Though Ball along side Ant would be a great combo.

    If only he could stay healthy. But that doesn't seem to be the case anymore. Had him on my fantasy team a few times, and when he plays, he's a difference maker. But too often he's on IR. They have Terry Rozier and he's a pretty damn good 2. Don't think they'd do it. Now Hayward, Rozier, and a pick, bingo. But that's Laker Fan delusional thinking at work.

    Noah Vonleh was signed by the Celtics...glad to see him get another shot in the league after last year with the Shanghai Sharks.

    Warriors just signed Wiggins to a 4 year 109 million extension. They are handing out some big money.

    looking at their payroll and if those Poole/Wiggins contract reports are accurate, the Warrior would have around 215M in salary next season...for 11 players. They could be 70-80M over the tax line and I'm pretty sure they will be in the repeater tax

    last season, the Warriors had a 170M tax bill.....geeeeezuz

    It's going to be like $180 million just for their starters and Poole. There is no way.

    6 year vet Jake Layman has been waived by the Celtics and supposedly because his shot was inconsistent, he didn't rebound well and his defense was weak....welcome to the Shanghai Sharks Jake!

    I am down in the Bay Area now and spent most of Friday at Oracle. That place is unreal. Practice facility inside the arena. Everything you could imagine they’ve got it covered. Two HOURS after the game ended, Curry and team were lifting weights together in their uniforms. Poole signed his deal, and some of the scrubs got cut. Quite a day.

    CJ Elleby, and Cody Zellar where both released. Nice to see Vonleh catch on with Boston.

    These guys are going to be fun to watch. And their all star isn’t even pictured.

    He looks like he's just meeting CJ for the first time.

    I think CJ is going to be a fantastic mentor for him and Ingram.

    Zion is probably confused why CJ wasn't wearing a child-size backpack and doing the Dougie during the Pelicans fan fest.
