They already have Teague, Rose, and Tyus Jones. How many more PG's do they need? They have Jerryd Bayless as well.

I agree with this. I'm not at all sure that Paul wants him in LA but I'm confident that he has one or two destinations in mind already and he will force the situation the way he wants it. If he wants him in LA it will likely have little to do with Lebron's window.

Teague is ruled out for Wednesday's game and Rose is questionable but my mind thought along the lines of a trade.

The CBA prohibits players or agents from PUBLICLY requesting a trade.

Right? Stir the pot for clicks. Idiots.

Every team should always be open to trading anyone. There's always the remote chance that another team will offer much more than you thought was possible.

Yep. Even if it made sense to trade him, how much are we going to get back on a player that's only making 3.3 million this season? Maybe a 3rd string pg?

Booker stat line tonight...
38 points, 74% shooting, 50% from 3... oh by the way 7 assists and 5 rebounds...
Stop with this sky is falling, trade Booker BS...
He is our future and any talk to ship him out is ludicrous

Just not at the point (6 turnovers).
The talk of trading him is not because he doesn't have an NBA future. It's the fear based on his visible frustration that he is on the cusp of pulling what Anthony Davis just did, and more notably what Bledsoe and Dragic did before that.

There are some that apparently believe that any time a player gets upset we should trade them before they demand to be moved. I don't see much future in that, I think we should plan ahead but we should save the gross overreactions for when they are needed.

Planning ahead means getting a Point Guard so Book won't want to bolt.
Save the gross overreactions (??) for when they are needed means waiting until it is too late.
You're choosing heads and tails? Even if the coin ends up on its side, it is not a winning situation.

I don't buy it. Yes we need a point guard but I just don't believe he's on his way out because we don't have one. But I especially don't believe in the overreactions on this board and elsewhere that suggest we should move him before he demands to be moved.

Or as warren buffet says:
When people get greedy, I get scared. When people get scared, I get greedy.
I’d prefer to Buffett over the people. But many posters here live in fear.

Klay Thompson now saying that if the Warriors don't offer him the max, he'll look at signing for the Lakers if they have Lebron AND AD.
And the downward spiral of the NBA continues...

When I first heard this it was called speculation, has there been actual comments from Klay? I know Woj will pass on anything whether it's been sourced or not, until I see something else I'm not going to give this one much attention.

Really? Is it really that far-fetched with the way the NBA is today? I think this is VERY believable.

I didn't say it was far-fetched, I just challenged the way you worded it. As I said, the first time I heard it, it was not being passed off as a direct statement. It was pure speculation and now it's still no better than an anonymous 3rd hand comment. Maybe it's true, who knows. But it doesn't appear to be any closer to reporting than what we do here.

Not even returning Pelinka’s calls. Klutch Sports has really done a number on the NBA.
