Despite his defensive shortcomings, he’s shown elite shotmaking in the playoffs and is only 24. In my opinion, his ceiling is enormous. I can’t understand why people are praising the Warriors trading him for a 38 year old CP3.

    The Warriors had to offload some money because of the new salary cap rules and the luxury tax was starting to become too much. As a result they had to decide this offseason whether to keep Draymond or Poole and choosing Draymond is the much better option if you are trying to maximize Curry’s window and win now. The reason why this trade is good is they are still getting a decent player back and most importantly the contract will be off the books next year.

      this is also a reason, they let wiseman go in the middle of the season because of this too.
