One thing on Draymond Green: A sign-and-trade would hard-cap the Suns at $169M, which means they could not go over that line. They’re already at $131M between Booker, Beal and KD alone. So between Dray needing to take a discount AND still work out the S&T math…good luck w/ that – 12:44 PM

Draymond Green has been a great player, but for some reason it feels like if he leaves the Warriors he’s going to disappoint the hell out of some team/fanbase … which I guess means I’m predicting he’ll be a Mav (not really — but, yeah) – 12:25 PM

Draymond Green can still avoid free agency and extend with the Warriors by June 30.
The Warriors still project to be well over the second tax apron even if he leaves as a free agent.
This offseason is the last time second apron teams could get back players in a sign-and-trade. pic.twitter.com/AXl2fsFWek – 12:19 PM
