I haven't posted in a while but I have been lurking diligently, so allow me to thank you, Eric, and all the contributors for your coverage of everything this off season. My draft understanding is nil and I'm not even going to pretend to know how it works. I'm only here to support Dub Nation for whatever that's worth.
As always, I appreciate everyone who entertained me with their posts.
I guess Beef Stew is off the table now, but what about JK for Duren (and Simone Fontecchio for salary)?
Edit: "[Charania] Just in: Minnesota Timberwolves' Naz Reid intends to sign a new five-year, $125 million contract to stay with the franchise, including a player option, sources tell ESPN. Critical agreement between the Wolves and Reid's agents, Sean Kennedy and Jeff Schwartz of Excel Sports." [not that we were going to get Naz, but it sets a pay scale for his type of player]
>>>The Philadelphia 76ers intend to sign F Justin Edwards to a new three-year contract after declining his team option, sources tell ESPN. 76ers and Klutch Sports' Rich Paul and Josh Hairston negotiated the new deal for Edwards, who averaged 10.1 points and 26 minutes last season. <<<
"...I’ll remember this treachery, “Mike”, if that is indeed your real name...." is classic Apricot. LOL. Thanks, Eric.
Toohey is the name of an Australian Brewing company. I tried to find out if Alex is related to the family (and he may be) but seems that he comes from a prominent military family.
Did you ever see her, where Joaquin Phoenix falls in love with his A.I. o/s. I’m already there with Apribot. The heavy breathing (or perhaps it’s just typical pug snorky breathing) turns any floppy disc into a hard drive…and she goes it without the benefit of Scarlet Johansson’s voice.
Been on vacation and will be in the land of stroopwaffle tomorrow!
I'll have one in Post honor tomorrow and be sure to send each and every one of you one. Just need your social security, address, visa.... Whatever else needed to run a scam 😂
Currently in Paris and had to resist saying nuit nuit a few times. I'll say it as my farewell to France.
Vegas Summer League schedule is out, Warriors are playing the Blazers (Hansen), Jazz (Bailey...?, Clayton), Grizzlies, and Raptors (CMB). Also playing the Lakers/Kings/Heat in the California Classic I believe.
I hope everyone is healthy and available. Considering Post’s stride she made during the season, it’s a shame he missed some of the offseason games last year.
Cam Reddish has got to be one of the most disappointing players in recent memory. No major injuries, unfortunate situation with teams or off court stuff to blame... just... mehhhh
Unbelievable talent coming out of high school and possessed almost every physical skill you could ask for in a star wing. It all went downhill once he arrived at Duke

Bol Bol is reportedly not being re-signed by the Suns. He'll be a UFA.
He can score, but his defense is bad.
Have any of the Dubs' Aussie picks excelled above expectations yet?
Wait, so we can't take back more salary than we send out, or does he mean that would apply once we used the TPMLE?

Coleman Hawkins (SL)
Alex Higgins-Titsha (SL)
Bez Mbeng (SL)
Chris Manon (SL)
The bottom two are new additions.
6'7" Alex Higgins-Titsha is a 24 year old Aussie: https://www.taipans.com/player/3713/2277966/alex-higgins-titsha
6'4" Yale Bulldog Bez Mbeng is the three-time Ivy League Defensive Player of the Year: https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/player/_/id/4898237/bez-mbeng

How many 1sts are we adding?
Also if Naz Reid is only getting 25 million a year, I think Kuminga is coming back.
If I'm the Pistons, I'd rather have Duren tbh
Beef Stew isn't Naz Reid.
Naz Reid is Pulled Pork or Beef Brisket?
Big Bacon Jelly?
Peanut Butter Jelly?
Lol. I've never heard either of those nicknames for him.
DAMN IT.
I guess Giannis it is.

A couple of important notes:

Be honest now. What you're really saying about APRIBOT is that in time we will come to regard her not only with respect and awe, but with love.
* with forced cheerfulness blinks in morse code RUN AWAY GET HELP *
Did you ever see her, where Joaquin Phoenix falls in love with his A.I. o/s. I’m already there with Apribot. The heavy breathing (or perhaps it’s just typical pug snorky breathing) turns any floppy disc into a hard drive…and she goes it without the benefit of Scarlet Johansson’s voice.

Are you in Amsterdam?
Tomorrow. I'm in Paris right now and Amsterdam is where I finish my trip. Only been to Europe once so it's been great to see.
I'm so sore from walking around endlessly everyday I'm ready for this trip to be over after Amsterdam 😂
Definitely get the herring from the street vendors!
Well, you know everyone here is sympathizing...

Didn't realize Post was bigender ;)
That’s just my shitty Dutch accent. 😁
Maybe already posted, but Dunleavy says we tried to trade into "the middle of the 1st round" "for one guy" but couldn't find a deal
https://www.reddit.com/r/warriors/comments/1lm0lal/tk_show_dunleavy_there_was_a_player_that_we_liked/
We all assume this was Walter Clayton, right? Dunleavy mentioned it was a guy they thought could contribute next season.
I would guess one of
Carter Bryant
Nique Clifford
Walter Clayton
There’s a hint that the player “kept falling”. TK thinks it’s a guard.
Maybe it was the kid Miami got then
If it is the kid Miami got (Jakucionis, who does seem like a Warrior type) I wonder if there’s a way to pry him in a Kuminga deal.
Would make sense since we drafted his teammate
Cam Reddish has got to be one of the most disappointing players in recent memory. No major injuries, unfortunate situation with teams or off court stuff to blame... just... mehhhh
He was meh his whole career
Unbelievable talent coming out of high school and possessed almost every physical skill you could ask for in a star wing. It all went downhill once he arrived at Duke
Maybe he just peaked in high school because he never had the drive to be all that he could be?
