I think most of the board does. We would be back in the mix if we can land him.

Bledsoe is getting married today and Cousins is at his wedding so Maybe Cousins is doing some recruiting lol

Maybe that's what they meant by him doing some recruit.

Sadly, it is going to take a lot more than recruiting. Would not get my hopes up.

How can they afford to keep this core?

He's made about 118m over his 13-yr career, so yes, the money matters to a certain extent. But if GS can come even close to offering what other teams have, it's a done deal.

Shocker. He went back.

Sources close to Andre Iguodala reporting agreed to terms to return to the bay....

:hihi:

Golden State GM Bob Myers met with Iguodala in Los Angeles tonight, and flew back to Bay Area with a commitment to keep champs together.

Because they don't give a ******** about the luxury tax right now.

im glad how teams in the west are getting better and not backing down from GS....as of today im ready to see GS vs OKC games..if westbrook,,pg13 and gay can keep the scoring going against GS and kantner and adams take care of the boards and provide inside scoring,,westbrook may get revenge on KD this season coming......

Im still waiting for us to fill our team out so i can really enjoy this season playoffs with us in it...

Seriously how do they even have close to the amount to keep him this all feels like a little bit of cheating on their part I'm js

I really hope we trade our 2018 first round pick for Bledsoe or Fournier. Put either one next to Jrue and our backcourt instantly goes from questionable to strength.

Tucker has agreed to a four-year, $32M deal with the Rockets, league sources tell The Vertical. https://t.co/6w4j6B1YnL

Luxury tax has now gone out the window. Houston is determined and i like it in the whole scheme of things. I like how they are building a roster to keep up with GS but hate we will most likely have to go through them for any chance

Yup. Why would they. They have about a 5 yr window to ride Steph/Durrant. Go all in.

I wish the NBA would do away with the luxury tax and just hard cap the teams. It is ridiculous to say you want competitiveness and then allow the bigger market teams with deep pockets to just "buy" themselves into competitiveness.
