2:19 CJ McCollum thinks the best fit for PG is with GSW: https://x.com/espnnba/status/18056973...
3:04 Brett Siegel: Warriors, Knicks, Magic interested in PG https://x.com/brettsiegelnba/status/1...
3:30 Chris Paul opted in and was traded by LAC to HOU in 2017: https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2...
4:14 Marc Stein said LAC and LAL would be interested in CP3 should he be waived by GSW, but at least this means LAC does have interest in him
4:36 looking at the salary cap sheet with PG
5:21 assumption: LAC would want Kuminga in the trade, Dunleavy said yesterday that trades are hard to make
6:05 is there any way to keep Klay?
6:40 some thoughts on PG vs JK and how it seems like an uneven trade if not
8:09 Zach Lowe is convinced the Warriors will not include Kuminga in a trade for anyone other that a tier above PG (e.g., Giannis level): https://open.spotify.com/episode/1qjE... (1:00:00 mark)
8:35 Stein: "We have to keep a close eye on the situation of Paul George to the Warriors. What is necessary would be a three-way trade, where the Warriors would be trying very hard to fit Chris Paul in a swap."
9:10 *NOTE: getting PG in a sign-and-trade would be very complex especially with the newer CBA rules
9:15 a Klay enthusiast compared (offensively) him vs PG — nice similarities although defense wasn’t involved in the discussion
10:15 Eric G joined us on 6/19 when we re-watched 2022 Finals G6 and gave us a detailed description of how Klay fits Orlando's roster so well (see also this video at the X:XX mark):    • #Warriors x #NBADraft.net+re-watch pa...   (see timestamps in Comments there for original livestream talk)
10:35 insider tidbit: Orlando is NOT interested in Klay 👀 (Kentavious Caldwell-Pope maybe? Which may also usurp the “Malik Monk took a huge discount” narrative)
12:05 PSA: 4th annual NBA Draft Watch Party on both Wed-Thu 6/26-27
12:30 re-edit of Eric G’s analysis of Klay’s fit with Orlando Magic: hard to have Klay and Steph together on the defensive side (too slow), really can't stop anybody and don't have enough defensive anchors to manipulate that, therefore looks worse on GSW than other teams, offensively we do need him, and yet the other defensive guy is better than him (always Steph over Klay), realistically ORL is a better fit, their whole team is defensive guys, the thing they can't do is shoot outside, perfect fit, lifestyle (beach, boat, closer to Bahamas), they'll be in playoffs every year, pay less income tax, only thing Warriors can sell is legacy (although we'll love Klay no matter what), what are the odds to win champ? hard to say, wouldn't advise Philly (or OKC or HOU), Dean offers Tim Duncan — also if you bring back Klay that could be the end of Moody, eventually will need to pay Kuminga, shot almost 40% plus 1st or 2nd for two guards for pulling opponents towards him Second Spectrum, ie what Steph doesn't do well is the same as Klay and what Klay does well Steph does better
