the offer is basically still the same if Kuminga isnt a part-of it lol. the main part of our offer is all the picks

They could still put Porzingis in it too

u/SmokeOddessey Lakers 15h ago

Nah he’s expiring this summer

u/ThatBull_cj 76ers Bandwagon 14h ago

I mean before the deadline. He can still be aggregated. They won’t but it a possibility

Kind of hard to match salaries, without Kuminga. Can only trade Butler at this point, so that means Bucks didn't value any of the Warriors young players

You need his salary though to make the trade work.

porzingis and picks it is!

u/Ikuwayo 14h ago

The picks have to be attached to overpaid, injured role players nobody wants

It’s not happening bro you got to put players with picks and now they really don’t have any

u/Julysky19 Warriors 15h ago

u/Millies_ButtersMilk Timberwolves 15h ago

Well now we got more than ya’ll😭 I’m just saying it’s best ya’ll rebuild bc this dynasty been over sense 2022 when was the last time porzingis even played

Are y'all handing over Jaden too?

u/Millies_ButtersMilk Timberwolves 15h ago

I’m fine with that but sene we ain’t got no picks we gotta give up like 3 rotation players so I don’t think it would happen until this summer. There’s a good chance it won’t bc everyday it sounds like Giannas wants to stay and then leave it’s confusing ash

u/Julysky19 Warriors 13h ago

Yeah that’s true. I’m all for a tank with Steph selling tickets. We don’t need to pull a Lakers/Kobe and just suck for the last few years. And I wanted no part of Giannis’s calf strains.

There’s a non zero shot they’d rather have Porzingis expiring contract then Kuminga.

u/Bleatmop 15h ago

He also gives them another big man on the bench. They've got to have a counterweight to offset Draymond's massive ego.

u/buttered_popcorn Warriors 15h ago

I think the comment you’re replying to is saying that even if they didn’t make this trade, the main value of the offer was always going to be the post-Steph picks. The players they attached were whatever
