Nobody should ever be allowed to refer to the Warriors drafting Todd Fuller unless "instead of Kobe Bryant" is added to the statement! I gave up on the team for a very long time after that idiotic decision.
Anyway, as for trading aging stars, it's kind of the way for NBA, MLB, and NHL teams who aren't serious contenders. And I highly doubt the Warriors would need to attach a first round pick to take Klay Thompson on an expiring contract. If he were available by trade on a 1-year deal, contending teams would fall over themselves for him. He's a Hall of Fame player with championship pedigree teams that haven't won will covet. The interesting thing would be what players (contracts) would go back to the Warriors in terms of salary matching?
Speaking of Klay, will the W's play him for first time in second of back-to-back tonight, given the game is in L.A. on TNT, and it's the last W's game before All-Star break? All games need to be treated as must wins at this point.
The Bucks host the Celtics tonight. Probably the biggest game of year for the Bucks on a 10-game win streak, on TNT before W's-Clips.
