Looking for another first rounder?  I'm not sure they have enough yet.

Bad fit for that motion heavy offense.

Oubre is a selfish gunner / ball stopper.

Great move for GSW. Hinkie's magic wand is for real.

Warriors have that TE from the Russell trade they need to use. Good move at least filling the void Klay will leave this season, then Oubres contract will be easy to move next summer if needed. Good move if they make it work for both teams. OKC going to be junk next season. LOL

Mentioned this in another thread earlier:

If they really wanted Fournier, I'm sure they could pull it off without giving up Wiseman. Bamba isn't a good enough prospect to make that trade palatable either. I think there's still other targets out there for them (Oubre comes to mind, he can fit in the TPE and OKC would happily take a protected pick probably).

So that's it. I'm a GM now, right??

Per Bobby Marks, using the TPE to acquire Oubre and his 14.4M salary would double their estimated luxury tax from 66M to 134M.  That's a lot of money to get Oubre who won't move the needle much for them.

There's a few loud 'Fire Danny' campaigners stomping about at the moment - you could probably tap into that!

I don't know. This Celtics bunch is rowdy. Maybe a nice, tame market like Minnesota. Those fans don't have expectations.

Those numbers stress me out, and it isn't even our team! Examples like that really drive home how punitive the tax can be
