No wonder he was talking so much shit about the team the last few days. He knew Durant was gone and he was getting salary dumped.

[spurraider21]

i think the dubs fucked up pretty bad

[Pelicans78]

He had to be moved for the Warriors to acquire DLo.

[AlexJones]

He'll be a Laker or a Rocket

Wow they got three firsts for taking on a $17 million expiring contract. That's an incredible haul for being gifted a valuable trade piece.

[baseline bum]

LMAO this tweet Iggy posted an hour and a half before free agency started

It looks like it's one pick, contingent on the protections.

Shit, on second reading yeah that sounds right.

[Seventyniner]

Shit, on second reading yeah that sounds right.

I almost posted the same thing you did, then I thought "wouldn't that violate the Stepien Rule unless the Dubs somehow have an extra 2025 first?"

Woj could have been more clear.

I think it's one pick, that changes by the year if the pick isn't available.

[DC23]

Buyout coming. Iggy will end up with 76ers, Rockets, or Lakers.

[R. DeMurre]

Smart of the Warriors to trade Iggy now-- he'll turn 36 next season-- and replace him with Russell, who is 23 and coming off his best year.

[Kawhitstorm]

He'll be a Laker or a Rocket

Most likely the Lakers since he can stay in Cali, also not sure he's fond of the Rockets

I'd rather keep him and then trade him in a few months since he's a pretty valuable $17 million expiring.

Won't have a lot of playing time behind LJ and The Klaw

Think you read that wrong...

[Kawhitstorm]

They also traded 3 future 1st rd picks that will be coming to fruition just right around the time when Curry/Klay/Draymond will be past their primes thus will most likely be in the teens.

DeAngelo is also one of the most overrated players in the league, his backup Dinwiddie is a better 2-way player. He's also a pick-n-roll player except the Duds don't have a roller.:lol

[Kawhitstorm]

I don't think he has any interest in playing major minutes ala Horry.

[phxspurfan]

No wonder he was talking so much shit about the team the last few days. He knew Durant was gone and he was getting salary dumped.

The opposite actually. He knew KD was gone but his talking shit about the medical team put the nail in his coffin. Don’t talk shit about your boss while you’re still getting paid

Memphis is a 15 win team, why would they need that when they're completely rebuilding?

[Spurtacular]

Warriors "dynasty" officially over.

[baseline bum]

Memphis is a 15 win team, why would they need that when they're completely rebuilding?

Because having an expiring like that could be really useful for extracting more picks in exchange for taking a longer contract. Memphis still has a salary floor they have to hit due to the rules of the CBA so it doesn't hurt them to take a longer contract in exchange for Iguodala's expiring if they get some assets out of doing so.

It's only one future first round pick-- Woj worded it awkwardly and made it sound like three, but it's one that changes if it isn't available in the first couple of years.

[phxspurfan]

Without Klay, Durant, Iggy and soon to be Boogie, the Dubs are now the 2018 Kings

Didn't realize there was a floor, that's dumb. I guess, stockpile as many picks as you can. But this isn't the NFL, picks aren't a sure thing, if you can't get a Lebron players are much more valuable than picks.

Bruh, don't make me look that up. If I had to guess w/o looking, the Grizz were 35 wins or better.

I'm talking this year, not last year with Best Gasol smarty.

[Spurtacular]

I dunno. They have that one guy was really good his rookie season, not to mention Fathead. I'd say they're good for at least 17 wins.

Fathead is good for -10 wins tbh :lol

GS is in full panic mode. They're having a fire sale over there.

Don't really see how dumping Iguodala to get Russell is a panic move. Any team in the league would have done the same.

[Will Hunting]

Is there any rule against Iggy signing back with GS after he's bought out?

[Will Hunting]

Iggy looked nearly finished in the playoffs. He has 1, maybe 2 seasons left before he's done, and he's definitely not the elite role player he was in 2015 - 2017 anymore.

[gambit1990]

Is there any rule against Iggy signing back with GS after he's bought out?
yes. can’t sign with GS until next summer.

[MultiTroll]

Getting value for sinker.
Concur good move.

Wish Popped and RC could do some of this.

[Millennial_Messiah]

yes. can’t sign with GS until next summer.

what? I thought he could wait 30 days after getting cut and then sign with them.

[KillerMamba]

Is Iggy cooked?

[gambit1990]

what? I thought he could wait 30 days after getting cut and then sign with them.
that rule changed like, half a decade ago.

[Spurtacular]

He was talking all that shit to get out, tbh.

And there won't be any dick riding pseudo-stars joining for minimum this year.
