I know there are going to be some haters, but this trade is pretty perfect in my eyes.

This seems like the best possible outcome for the Warriors trade deadline, other than a miracle of getting Giannis. They get one of the best Jimmy Butler replacements they could ask for, and they get the best centers Curry and Draymond get to play with. Sabonis' play style is just fitting for Golden State, and Draymond's defense compliments it well. In this outcome, GSW gets some cap relief too, which I don't know if that would be the realistic outcome, as I would try to get Monk involved.

A lineup of Curry, Podz/Hield/Moody, DeRozan, Green, Sabonis is definitely one of the best on paper in the entirety of the GSW dynasty.

It is unfortunate to end the Butler era so tragically, but this team's timeline is running thin. Butler can rehab in Sacramento, and for the Kings, it is a win if he bounces back great, and can be a good deadline piece to trade, or even miraculously fit into the team. The Kings finally get Kuminga, and decent draft capital from a desperate team.

Potential the draft capital could be of higher value and quantity. Maybe the two teams could find a way to funnel Monk to GSW too.
