CP3 to Warriors, Poole to Wizards

[209life]

Does this mean GSW chances get higher of retaining Draymond?

 

[stormtrooper8]

I really hope it's just a salary move and they plan to send Paul elsewhere

Because this is a bad trade for the Warriors

never like this pos here, even back to his high school and college days

Yeah CP3 always been overrated/an asshole/a choker

 

[carolinakid]

his parents are great as i have been in their home several time but when chris has been around he a joke

Why have you been in his parents' home?

 

[carolinakid]

i knew them when he was in high school here and a friend here got me together with them at a game

 

[Rasta Nate]

I am shocked!! As a Warriors fan I kind of like. They needed to move that contract they paid way too much for him and he played like crap in the playoffs this year

 

[BMR Genie]

CP3 is injury prone. Well, hope he can stay healthy for the Warrior.

I'm a Warriors fan but I am not a fan of Chris Paul and I hate this trade for the Warriors. He's old and broken down at this point in his career and they gave up draft picks on top of Jordan Poole to get him. Now I think they had to move Poole but I just don't feel like Paul is a good fit for the Dubs who are already old. Hopefully they are not done making moves and I don't think they are but this is not a great start to Mike Dunleavy's tenure as GM imo.

This could be his last attempt to get a ring.

Yeah pretty much agree with all of it

Don’t mind getting off Poole contract but this wasn’t the way to do it

They kind of mishandled the whole Poole/Draymond thing. Think it played a role in his season

I guess the only upside to this trade for the Warriors is they found a guy who can run the second unit and give Steph some much needed rest. Paul theoretically could last an entire season only having to play 20-25 minutes a game off the bench and the Warriors have a more steady bench unit with Paul leading the second unit. I'm not sure that will equate to a championship but one of the problems with last years Warriors team imo is when Steph was off the floor the team suffered a big drop off and the opponent took advantage.

I don't like Paul but they had to move Poole. Hopefully there's another move that's going to be made

I like your positivity here, JR. Hopefully, this is the case.

I'm typically a positive person but overall I don't really like this trade for the Warriors because I don't see Paul as the missing piece the Warriors need to keep their championship window alive. Getting rid of Poole was necessary but I would have liked it better if the Warriors were able to land a Pascal Siakam or even Kristaps Porzingis type player because I feel like they need a big man who can score and help protect the rim on defense.

I think this will give them a cap space for Draymond to stay.

Long-term it will free up space but right now Paul makes about the same as Poole
