Don’t let them fool you , Lauri has all the leverage he’ll be a free agent next year .. as soon as his agent tells teams he won’t be resigning with them it’s over

[@adamw7290]

The Lauri trade could happen if it's a three or four team trade.

[@florida1289]

Cooper Flagg or at a min a spot in the top 5 of next years loaded draft is whats driving this trade for Utah. LM keeps them picking around 10. I'm an unbiased observer... if I'm Golden State & I decide to meet their demands I'm asking for an additional piece like Walker Kessler as I know they said he was on the block too. If GS gets LM + WK for JK + Pods + picks.

[@kajuken]

His injury history is a huge red flag.

[@temporalsoliton]

Danny is a shrewd dealer. The Jazz don't want to win. The next 2 drafts are potentially amazing to find a future franchise #1. They are building up trade value for a player they don't want (not because he isn't a good player) so they can tank. And they aren't going to trade him to OKC, Wolves or Cavs. Warriors just have to play the game because they don't have many options.

[@nickzander11030]

They’re preparing us for Kuminga, Podz, Moody, and 3-5 firsts to make it happen. I say let’s goooooooo!!!

[@Arratick]

lauri personality-wise sounds like an aloof old school klay lol... dunleavy really trying to build what he was in aggregate 😆

[@titant06]

Thank you for calling out Kuminga’s bad attitude!! So many fans want to pretend Kuminga’s attitude isn’t a big deal

[@neujesse45]

To brush off injury concerns like that is pretty suspect to me. Also admitting that the team was actively tanking and that they didn't want to win games is certainly a choice for someone that reports on the team.

[@ToshiroMifuneSamurai]

I have an idea, why don't we just tank this season and draft Cooper Flagg to save our future.

[@Jayydubss]

lol Flagg is over rated…he could be a bust or a solid player…that’s about it

[@jonbgood80]

@@Jayydubsswhy do you think he's overrated. That guy was a MONSTER in AAU

[@Jayydubss]

@@jonbgood80 he could be great or he could be average…he’s not the most athletic or quickest…and his shot needs to improve…not sayin he won’t be a great player but we gotta see

[@jonbgood80]

@@Jayydubss I respect that but your initial read as if you had you mind made up. Btw that's for every prospect. What Flagg has shown is that he can ball

[@Jayydubss]

@@jonbgood80 well yea nothing is a given…there are players that shown they can play and probably will be good or great in the nba…but nothing is for sure…Flagg can ball but ppl saying he’s a generational talent… I gotta see what he will do at Duke first

[@nicoaldaco5351]

Donavan Mitchell was really critical of living in Utah. That’s one of the last basketball cities I’d want to live in if I was kuminga

[@kenmack158]

Why is that,Ive lived here for 44 years

[@nicoaldaco5351]

He said he received push back on his social justice initiatives. No offense against any individuals there, but people of color are much more comfortable when there’s more people of color around. Not that there are none, but it makes a difference in the overall experience for many

[@andylofi4448]

JK, Podz and a 2nd deal

[@andrewbradley3305]

You’ll need 3 more firsts. Lauri is better then bridges

[@gamerf2p843]

You'll be dumb to give away podz and JK, for Laurie to leave next year

[@dangerzone3470]

You’re out of your cotton picking mind

[@ninerempire3398]

@@andrewbradley3305no he’s not. He’s more flashy, but mikal is better and more impactful

[@quiet_nerd9713]

This is exactly what casual Dubs fans does not realize. Ainge can suck it if he thinks both of them will be on the table.

[@alldubs55]

No JK for Lauri. Moody, podz, all the 1sts we can trade. Nothing else. If he was so good and loved Utah, why would Utah trade him?

[@bjamminsincebirth3494]

Warriors could give 4 1st rounds and maybe Moody or Podz. I would keep Wigs for defense, and of course Kuminga. Otherwise Podz and JK and one 1st round

[@ninerempire3398]

Warrior fans are delusional. You won’t get lauri without JK

[@grahamgilbrech9281]

Kevon Looney and jk and a 2nd round pick for lauri

[@thuanchau7042]

gsw need to trade kuminga while he still has some value with other teams. he has no set of skill beside being athletic. his shooting form is just ugly which why its so inconsistent. LM would be a great fit with his size and fearless with his 3s.

[@gamerf2p843]

You clearly haven't watch any jk games , he has the best midi range on the warriors yes better % than klay
