    Revisiting KD trade

    Would you trade BI for KD right now?

    I would personally be on the fence, but I?d rather trade BI over Trey Murphy with what we have seen so far. Murphy?s ceiling appears possibly higher than BI.

    We are a contender right now and KD gives us a better shot at a championship over the next 3 years than BI imo.

    Thoughts?

    Yes you know what they say. As soon as you make it to first place in the conference, time to break up the team.

    Can't go years preaching "this isn't a team, this is family".... then stab people in the back when you see a good looking girl. Trading any of our main pieces went out the door in my mind the second the season happened. They've earned the right to succeed


    I highly doubt doing a 2K deal is going to get us a championship this year. Too many people in championship or bust with this young team. I don't get it.
    Actual proof Greivis Vasquez can throw Anthony Davis an Alley-OOP on an (kinda) fastbreak!

    Keep an eye on Goran Dragic...

    He will either be a Pelican, Sun, or Laker by the end of the month.
    The most important ABILITY that a player must demonstrate in order to claim "Superstar Status" is AVAILABILITY!!

    If Murphys ceiling was actually higher than Ingram, then you trade him for KD any day of the week, possibly with a pick and JV, and keep Ingram if thats the case.

    I'll give up Garrett Temple and Jaxson Hayes. Thats it.

    The answer was KD > BI this past summer, KD > BI in the beginning of the season, and it's KD > BI now after yet another BI injury.

    Imagine if the Warriors hesitated trading Monta Ellis when Steph was ascending because Ellis led the "We Believe" team in 2007 to an upset over the Mavericks

    In your example Steph is a young ascending star already on the team, so imagine if the warriors traded young Steph for an aging star 9 years older than him.
