I'm actually very stoked about this, if true. CP3 is pretty fragile come playoff time, but this org is pretty good at making sure people are healthy for their post season runs. Probably allows for Draymond to sign a decent 3 year deal for himself too, and Poole can move on to greener (and less Green-er) pastures.

lol hey i talked myself into gobert for awhile, you can do it!

Though, Poole getting stuck in Wizard purgatory is kinda poetic and apropos for his personality and play style of late. Now he can put up big numbers and a bunch of turnovers on losing efforts to his heart's content.

funny that cp3 is on the dubs but its mostly just a salary dump, second apron doing unspeakable things to the league
― lag∞n, Thursday, 22 June 2023 19:28 (ten months ago) link
poole bout to put up 28 ppg on 44/33 splits and have at least 3 highlights per game.

yup

this is a mutant-ass curséd trade lmao

this is nuts. has steph ever played with anyone remotely like cp?
all i know is, dubs opponents need to start guarding their crotches very closely with cp and dray on the same team. can they trade for grayson allen?

love to partner with the star
Golden State will not waive Chris Paul and is looking forward to partnering with the star to make a championship run, league sources tell @NBAonTNT, @BleacherReport.— Chris Haynes (@ChrisBHaynes) June 22, 2023

i have a very hard time picturing the steph & cp3 pairing lol
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 22 June 2023 19:40 (ten months ago) link
huh that’s funny because I love to make a championship run xp
― Clay, Thursday, 22 June 2023 19:40 (ten months ago) link
i guess the good news is that the strain on cp3 throughout the regular season should be very minimal
cp3 and steph will preserve each other

thats alotta quasi draft picks baby
Washington and Phoenix have finalized the Bradley Beal trade, landing the Wizards six second-round draft picks and four first-round pick swaps, sources tell ESPN. Suns are sending seconds in 2024, 2025, 2026, 2027, 2028 and 2030. Pick swaps in 2024, 2026, 2028 and 2030.— Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) June 22, 2023

gotta get the heat off him
― slai gorgeous-alexander (m bison), Thursday, 22 June 2023 19:43 (ten months ago) link
xxp oh those swaps could actually be great. that... changes things? of course for the swaps to be valuable the suns don't just have to fall, the wiz have to actually be good

decent all things considered
So Beal for Poole, Shamet, a 2030 protected 1st, 4 1st round swaps (one being the middle pick of 3), and seven 2nd round picks— Ryan Bernardoni (@dangercart) June 22, 2023

jordan poole is clearly living his best life. he won his ring early, now he can go shoot to his heart's content in obscurity. there might be fewer baddies in the stands tho, sadly
― ludicrously capacious bag (voodoo chili), Thursday, 22 June 2023 19:48 (ten months ago) link
so this makes me feel like the wiz would've accepted tyler herro back in a beal trade but the heat obviously weren't going anywhere near that
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 22 June 2023 19:49 (ten months ago) link
yeah seems like the heat just werent into him
― lag∞n, Thursday, 22 June 2023 19:50 (ten months ago) link
gonna go out on a limb and say that at least 2 of those 4 swaps will occur
― ciderpress, Thursday, 22 June 2023 20:05 (ten months ago) link
sort of think paul is a great fit for the dubs, especially if he’s willing to come off the bench. their bench has been extremely bad and he’s sort of the ultimate stabilizer, as an added bonus he won’t be arguably the worst defensive player in the league. he can share the court with curry in limited minutes too to take some of the ball handling pressure off of him, we know curry doesn’t need the ball all the time to be productive
― k3vin k., Thursday, 22 June 2023 20:30 (ten months ago) link
whenever cp3 comes off the bench it will ensure the pace of the game slows to a crawl while the starters rest

not a bad thing!

Steph and CP3 will have to be the oldest backcourt in the league.

There’s growing sentiment Toronto star Pascal Siakam — who’s on an expiring deal — would not re-sign with a team who attempts to trade for him as his preference is to remain with the Raptors, sources tell @NBAonTNT, @BleacherReport.— Chris Haynes (@ChrisBHaynes) June 22, 2023
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 22 June 2023 21:41 (ten months ago) link
pascal siakam won't re-sign w/ a team that attempts to trade for him -- aka a team that he is not on -- because his preference is to remain w/ the raptors... the team he would no longer be on if another team actually did trade for him
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 22 June 2023 21:44 (ten months ago) link
if his contract is expiring, then the team that trades for him would need to re-sign him to a new contract in order to keep him on the team, no?

this trade is successful. you have not affected the winning percentage of either team.
― ludicrously capacious bag (voodoo chili), Thursday, 22 June 2023 21:48 (ten months ago) link
if you try and put julius randle into a trade for value the trade machine breaks itself in protest

if the heat strike out on dame i like siakam a lot for them & they have enough ammo for that
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 22 June 2023 21:54 (ten months ago) link
raptors really dont want to fold idgi. they even got a chip so they shoudlnt be so desperate to ride out the back side of their window once it becomes improbable
― ciderpress, Thursday, 22 June 2023 21:59 (ten months ago) link
trading pascal seems like the the good idea hes older than their other guys and due a huge deal next year, they could get a lot for him
