In this deal the Warriors sign Ben Simmons to a 1 year minimum contract.

https://fanspo.com/nba/s/general/trades/ffir9tNFlHEQJF/raptors-push The Warriors make these trades because they need A more players off their bench who will help Curry score. Bruce Brown does that. And B a big and Portle would be a perfect fit for this team. Wigs has played so poorly he’s not even starting games anymore and Paul was never going to move the needle on this team.

https://fanspo.com/nba/s/general/trades/dzTVPU2VoQFfyT/hornets-making-moves The Warriors make this move to add another young physical defender to their team. They could use his floor spacing and defense but mainly his aggressiveness.

https://fanspo.com/nba/s/general/trades/o2ycm8FG72hhff/pistons This is the Biggest trade, the Warriors have to move on from Draymond. Not only is non basketball issues affecting the on court play. His play overall has declined. I’m not questioning his leadership or defense those things are invaluable but he’s not the rebounder, not the scorer and not the decision maker he was. And that has hurt this team.

Lastly I do think Golden state should keep Klay I think his struggles were a big overstated. With this team and the perimeter defenders they have and now the interior defenders to protect the rim I think he’ll get back to playing at least solid defense and he’s still a good spot up shooter.
