Just kind of funny to me people think there is this big blockbuster deal that hinges on the Warriors getting the Wizards to agree to something. What's preventing the Wizards from demanding such a big price on that were it becomes unattainable? It's going to be hard enough to get two teams to agree to such a big deal.

Pretty major hitch to rely on that 3rd party if they are being greedy/crazy. If they are being reasonable, then replacing the value of a top-20 protected pick or 2nd shouldn’t be difficult. But it is nonetheless a big swing variable.

Brother, if they don’t play ball we get swaps in 25/27/29/31 and picks in 26/28/30. The 2030 pick would just be protected 21-30.
 
Windy reporting on these talks is a big deal. He is very adverse to being tied to specific deal unless serious conversations are happening. We'll see what Ainge does.

It will be interesting to see how big of a destination they will be going forward with Curry entering his twilight years. Right now I would put money on them fading as a destination franchise over the next few years.

Unless San Francisco has teleported to Nebraska I think they are safe.
 
I'm just going to assume Lauri asked not to be part of a rebuild and this is happening one way or another, so that I can get behind it, since I'd rather have the player as things stand now. And if we are doing a Dubs package why aren't we talking about Podz?

Hope the return is great, next years Jazz team is gonna be... something. Hope Sexton is a good babysitter.
 
It's hard to imagine the Jazz settling for such an underwhelming package directly after what Bridges went for.

I can’t see WAS being so stubborn that they do not do themselves a favor. They will take a pick that’s better than 21-30 protected and be happy. In a scenario where this is in play, the Jazz would essentially be trading one pick for two.

Bigger question is if GSW is even willing to put up not 29/31 unprotected to begin with. I’m sure they’ll be trying to get the deal done without both.

They can kick rocks then at that point. Those are the most valuable assets they own. I’m not gifting them Lauri. Make them give us everything.

Say you are the Wizards... you own a top 20 protected pick in 2030 that will turn into a second if it doesn't convey. Someone comes to you and offers 2-3 seconds that you like better... do you say no to something that is better for you because you think you have a team by the balls? Especially when the teams can work around by simply changing the picks and swaps around... fine... we will take picks in 26/28/31 with swap rights in 25/27/29/30 or 31 if we have to.
 
And we are talking about being on the fence for a full load from the Warriors. They probably arent offering the full load.

They can take seconds from Golden State since Danny doesn’t want those anyways.
