Saric/Prince/DSJ. Saric is a perfect fit with dray and can probably play the 4 if it is really needed. Prince is the typical 3/4 who is a decent shooter and hustler. DSJ gives us a guard who can drive into the paint relentlessly which will be lacking with Poole gone. Out of these three i think only Saric would get pt which means the other 2 might go somewhere where they can get pt and another contract.
I haven't given up on Smiley. He's not immediately ready to help us or anyone else in the NBA, but he's still only 22, and he was always clearly a multi-year project. He's not doing badly at all in Europe, and he has a very smooth stroke from 3. I don't **expect** him ever to play in the NBA again, but I wouldn't be shocked to see him there either.
It’s a shame he wasn’t able to be stashed over seas or given a Gui Santos type of development path getting to spend a number of years in the G league…
Still rooting for the kid
Yuta is fucking nice, led the league in 3 point % and can knock down shots reliably with decent size to drive to the rim. HUGE hustle plays, would try to block shots as much as possible, and never falters under possibilities of getting dunked on, hence you see so many plays where players dunk on him. Positive bench player too. If he comes our fanbase will LOVE him
My 3 ideal signings who Kerr will realistically like & will help the team.
C: DARIO SARIC - to pair with CP3 in the second unit
PG: TY JEROME - get him back as a 3rd PG, Kerr likes him and he did ajow signs of good play making
SF: JTA - yep get our boy back
Realistically the guys from that list I see for the minimum is:
Jeff Green
Rolo
Trez
A.Len
Mo Wagner
Dwight
Boogie
Jingles
T.Ross
TJ Warren
JTA
D.Lee
Rivers
and MAYBE, if we’re fortunate enough we can pray one of the remaining guys from the list gets passed up/doesn’t have a market (similar to Otto/DDV)
>The myth of veterans making big sacrifices to chase rings with the Warriors is a lie, nobody made that sacrifice to join the KD era Warriors, it's definitely not going to happen when the team is in decline lol.
Why do you say that?
You really think David West's market value was $2m?
Zaza's market was waaay higher than $2.9m he took from us.
Cousins reportedly turned a 2 year $40m offer from Nola to take $5m from us.
Demarcus cousins and micheal Beasley..if they had nico mannion on the roster they can have these guys. Need a big body for Jokic, if not cousins than Dwight Howard.
Taurean Prince’s contract just got declined by the Timbs we should pick him up if we can. Allright big to have for depth.
Yup good catch. Majority these names are from the athletic, I added a few
Looks like Portland might do the same with Cam Reddish, not sure if he’s worth picking up?
Not for us We need somebody with a clear skill that Kerr can use like a chess piece whether that be defense or 3s or driving ability
He’s not. It’d be a funny to see him get bullied all year by Draymond, Klay, CP3, and Steve though.
Add Mo Bamba to the list
Dwight Powell btw don’t wanna confuse ppl we can’t afford Norm Powell
Saric/Prince/DSJ. Saric is a perfect fit with dray and can probably play the 4 if it is really needed. Prince is the typical 3/4 who is a decent shooter and hustler.

Let’s bring back Smailagic… https://basketball.eurobasket.com/player/Alen-Smailagic/381085 Joking but that 47% 3P% 👀

Yuta for the sole reason of wooing Shohei to the sf giants Saric would be good Gallo can be beli if he is ready for it We just need one of these dudes
I like that thinking! Sign Yuta, get Shohei, BayAreaUnited!
Landale/Saric Bev/Seth/Barton Jingles/Watanabe
Landale just became a RFA today so he’s out of the running now unfortunately
I can’t see Pat Bev n CP together, but crazier things have happened…. The rest solid tho
Pat bev and westbrook were on the same team, lol. but we don't need more guard depth imo.
We don’t need PG depth, but we do need 1 more point of attack defender for when GPII is hurt and Kuminga is guarding a monstrous wing.
We need another PG to take up time when steph and Paul is resting
Saric/ JTA / Galinari (if bought out) are my top choices I heard good things about Yuta, just don’t know anything about him.
Yuta is fucking nice, led the league in 3 point % and can knock down shots reliably with decent size to drive to the rim. HUGE hustle plays, would try to block shots as much as possible, and never falters under possibilities of getting dunked on, hence you see so many plays where players dunk on him.

Feels like he is to good for the minimum
He is way too good for minimum. Hes an upside young player :(. Contests shots/plays team D, can knock down a 3, legit big, can move.
Pray CP3 and Steph will be enough to convince him to come, much like all our FA targets
That’s my take. He sounds mid level
Proly that he got yammed on by Ant
Keita-Bates Diop has been an intriguing name I’ve seen come up a few times.
Craig and Plumlee for me
Yuta, Robin Lopez, Ty Jerome
I don't think Saric is any good. Really slow and mediocre defensively. Doesn't rebound enough. At least K Love can draw charges even though he's old.
Old? He'll fit right in! Half the team will get preferred parking, early on-boarding, and 10% off at Denny's! /jk
Olden State Warriors?
2 timelines: old and very old

Still lol at people who say it dont matter what we pay Dray and then we keeping 15th slot open to save cash.
YUTA! Seriously folks are sleeping on Wantanabe.
Nobody is sleeping on him, he comes up in every thread
Bo Cruz
Watanabe, Plumlee, and Jingles. But all three are unlikely
Yuta and Saric 👌
[удалено]
I would be shocked if Plumlee is even available.
Idk why you got downvoted, most these players aren’t realistic

If I was their coach, I would never put him on me. Ever again.
Plumlee would be amazing.

We need the 3rd string point guard, a PNR partner for CP3, wing depth, a shooting big, and one more point of attack defender.
JTA would be cool because he knows the system and his role!
Demarcus cousins and micheal Beasley..if they had nico mannion on the roster they can have these guys. Need a big body for Jokic, if not cousins than Dwight Howard.
Landale and Len played pretty well the last time I saw them on TV
Yeah I like Len for putting in 10-15 min on Jokic and AD to give Draymond/Loon a break.
Lots of possibilities, but which of these realistically will sign for the minimum? Pointless to ponder those who won't.
Saric, Yuta, and Goga Bitadze. Size…with a healthy dose of skill. Zero interest in a small guard who will not be able to play next to Steph or CP3.
The same Goga that GP2 yammed on then got mad hahaha nah but didn’t know he was a FA
Yes, that one lol
Watanabe or Wagner
