In:  KP,  2024 GSW #1, several second rounders, Brissett, Banton

Out:  Marcus, Grant, Gallo, Muscala, opportunity to draft a first rounder

We've traded away the VP of the Player's Association, and attempted to trade another VP.

Other teams have signed several free agents at the minimum who are reliable rotation players; we've signed deep bench types.

Do you think the players care?  Are they patient?  Or do they get p---ed?

Probably don’t care. So far this offseason is a bit of a wash. KP is a good add. Brissett and Banton aren’t worth a crap.

Wait and see. I also wouldn't read anything into any players role with the players association. Just heard an interview with Pagliuca where he said the one great thing the NBA has going for it is labor peace. When you have that, the valuations of every franchise go up.

I think the players know that they were one win away from the finals and the reason they fell short was not bc of talent.   The biggest player leaving I think that would cause them to feel any kind of way would be Marcus and I think depending on who you talk to, you might get a bunch of different opinions about him leaving

But at the end of the day, I think the team knows they have what it takes to get there, and that it’s on them and the coaches at this point
