What would we even do with him? We just gave Robin Lopez a ton of money and Porzingis is the future of the franchise. So you're either shoving Lopez onto the bench and setting a torch to that money or you're stunting the growth of the future.

I don't think anyone at 12 is going to be better than Teague or Hill. Strange deal I don't know. This whole draft seems like a crap shoot.

The Hawks seem like a crap shoot right now. I am not optimistic about how they use this pick after last year's draft debacle.

People have been saying Teague was gone all last year, I doubt this is a sign they are blowing poo poo up.

Yeah but if you want to keep your 29 year old all star free agent you get a solid vet in return.

I wonder if Atlanta would take Plumlee and Ed Davis for Millsap. Maybe throw in the 2018 Cleveland first.

Lillard/CJ/Aminu/Millsap/Howard or Whiteside or Biyombo would be a really good starting 5.

I think Schroder is better than Teague coming into this season.

I don't think they'll get a whole lot more out of Schroder than what we've seen. I think they are going to need to get a lot better around him, after Horford leaves.

Next season is going to really test the "Bud is a genius" vs. "It was Ferry's team all along" narratives.

Yah barring some hilarious poo poo the Warriors will probably be in the Finals next year.

Considering how many Spurs games I'm set to go to next season I don't know if I should remain a Warriors fan or just become a Spurs one. Thoughts from anyone else thst has moved before?

Do you still support your old team or find something that may be easier to follow?

I don't think it's that bad for a 1 year rental of a 31 year old. Boston would probably top that offer tho. Not sure who else. Maybe Toronto?

Unless you can trade Lopez for someone, it makes no sense for the Knicks. We need backcourt help and there's not much that can be picked up in free agency.

Yeah, I've seen Charlotte listed as a possible landing spot but unless he's willing to take ~20M I don't know if that's possible

Schroder's gonna turn 23 in September and he's improved every season. I think he'll be good, but yeah maybe not "completely forget Jeff Teague ever happened" good
