I also don't think that Clippers should trade John Wall. He hasn't been playing in any game since April 24, 2021. This is a huge interval for a basketball player and it is hard to rely on that player again for some time at least. They can at least monitor his performance at Rockets for some time and then decide what to do. He was of course a very talented player but we don't know how he will return. I also agree with @Yaunfitda that Clippers should already be comfortable with George and Leonard for now.
Wall does not play because he doesn't like his team, he just wants to be traded and I don't think because he didn't play that will lessen his value. IMO, Wall still belongs to the league of superstar in the NBA, and he can be a big help for the Clippers campaign to win a championship.

Remains to be seen, and it sound familiar (Harden), but it's not going to be easy for him as Clippers have already a established stars in Kawhi and PG13. How will he fit? for sure he will dislodge some of their players already like Reggie Jackson who has been playing good last season. On the contrary, it could backfire on them if Wall see that he is not giving enough time on the floor and then not giving his 100% every game, just saying.
Chemistry is the most important, everyone should play according to their respective roles.

And chemistry will be a big problem if Wall will not adopt the system of Clippers and he also want to shine among with his current star. We know how dominant George and Kawhi is so if they get wall then he will not be a good fit on this team well maybe we can see another Westbrook like drama on this team. But let see how they take action on this.

Then that would become a failed experiment and maybe we will hear from the news that Wall again will be traded in the next season. Well, there's really no assurance that he would blend perfectly with the current roster of the Clippers, just like Durant, Irving, and Harden, they had a good start but now looks the remaining two superstars also wants to get out in the team.

Yes we can make Brooklyn stars as best example of that since if they really want to get wall in their line up then this will cause huge problem to them because for sure each one of them will make sure that they will not get out numbered on their performance since they want to retain their star status that's why this will create problem with them. Maybe what's best for Clippers is they should build a good reliable role players which can help George and Leonard.

I actually think it's a perfect fit for wall.  Wall and Harden are completely different types of players.  Harden likes to dominate the ball.  Wall orchestrates insaneltly well for his teammates.  Put him together with 2 guys who can also create for themselves and all the pressure isn't on him to get his team looks.  He can slow roll his way back in.  Injuries though with kawhi, Wall and pg don't line up well.  Will see how long all 3 can be on the floor without being out.

I mean in terms of the attitude though, we've seen Harden perform well when he was shift out to Sixers so maybe he did it intentionally when he was still with Brooklyn to play not 100%.

He knows that, he will not be the focal point when he goes to Clippers, but then again, there is this argument that don't fix when it's not broken. The Clippers system is not broken, it's that two of their best players got injured. But yet this still make the team good as compare to the Lakers.

If that John Wall scenario will happened for real, I'm sure there will be a time that these 3 stars will be injured at the same time leaving again those Clippers bench to do some adjustment. Instead of pushing for a revamp on their main cast, strengthening the backup players should be the main priority. The Clippers are not a bad team in the first place.

I guess that will happen. John Wall already disclosed his strong interest in signing with the Clippers.
3 superstars injured at the same time? Well, that must be very unfortunate if it happens, which in contrary to your belief I don't think it would happen. 1 of them might get injured but all of them 3 stars all the same time? Nah the odd for that to happen is very low.
Only John Wall is the most fragile compared to Kawhi and PG.

But they will get nothing in return if they get a player as injured prone as John Wall, And it's pretty obvious that his prime years are gone already and even if he forced himself, (would be a mistake) he might get injured again. I think the best option for Clippers is just to wait for Leonard to be healthy and Paul George. The role players have adopted and I would say that they are just waiting for the team to be 100% healthy and that is their biggest chance to go to the playoff next season, not getting John Wall.
If it's the Clippers I don't think they need another star. Strengthening their bench might be their best choice if they want progress. That way even if Leonard or Paul George is injured someone could handle the holes left by them.
Yes, that's what I was trying to imply, a healthy Kawhi Leonard and Paul George and some bunch of role players that can play the 2 spot might be good for them instead of getting a star like John Wall.

We saw Norman Powell played at the last few games of the season, that's a good sign for them and Terance Mann is gaining more experience looking like a young Kawhi Leonard in the making. I would focus on making these players be at their best and creating a closer chemistry rather than creating chaos by messing up the roster. My 2 cents.
And that's a good example, Powell and Mann is already a good addition and part of the rotation, chemistry is also build. And insert both of their top players, they will be another team that is going to contend in the a pretty much stack up West conference.

Jordan poole and Andrew Wiggins is a good tandem for the warriors even though they don't have curry and Thompson in the floor but still they have a good defender and also scorer which is Wiggins can scored will and poole will help him. Of this lineup are still next season for sure a big chance of winning are there. If they want to stay in the warriors as long as they give their best on every match for sure that they can stay on the team when ever they want to stay.
It's not them to decide if they want to stay with the Warriors.

But it's the Warriors management to decide and it has been decided that they'll stay because it's said that they'll get a priority of staying and the management will spent a lot for them to stay.

That's why most of us are excited to see how they'll do with the next season because we'll still see Wiggins and Poole with Steph, Klay and Dray.

But their performance is worthy to look at if the Warriors management wanted them to stay or not.

However, the argument that they will spend way too much just for their big 5 might bite them later. Because there are still things like injuries that could really affect their performance. Hard decision, but hopefully, if Wiggins and Poole are willing to have a pay cut just to stay in the team and then make a run again, then much better. But still up to them, for sure other teams might offer them a better pay.

Chemistry is not a problem for the likes of John Wall. He doesn't have that struggling behavior when it comes to adjusting in terms of chemistry regardless of who's teammates he is paired with. He is no doubt one of the best front runners on the court in the league. However, the core problem of the Clippers signing John Wall is the risk that he might end up on the sideline for long period again. Both Paul George and Kawhi Leonard are already injury-prone and yet they will add another one who is far more injury-prone compared to those two.

If that John Wall scenario will happened for real, I'm sure there will be a time that these 3 stars will be injured at the same time leaving again those Clippers bench to do some adjustment. Instead of pushing for a revamp on their main cast, strengthening the backup players should be the main priority. The Clippers are not a bad team in the first place.

I would guess that there is bit of both. How? If they want max and the team offers them less than max, then it is up to wiggins and Poole to decide if they want to stay or not. I would highly suggest them to stay because I really can't see any other team giving them the max they want to get.

Poole may get something, he may even get to a team that would play well with him, but Wiggins already has been around and we all know how he is, I do not think that he is going to get max anywhere. So, Warriors could decide to give max to them and they would accept of course in which case it's all on Warriors management, but if they offer less, then it's on players too.

I don't think Wiggins and Poole should hope for max contracts even though both are good players and contributed a lot to the Warriors' win last season. As far as I know, there are already rumors that the Warriors may offer Poole a 4-year contract for $100 mln while re-signing Wiggins won't be decided until the next offseason. The problem is that the Warriors will have a huge luxury tax if they sign the same contract with Wiggins.

Yes, that's the issue with Warriors, it's hard to maintain their championship line up specially with contracts of Poole and Wiggins. Their big 3 is safe though, but the other pieces like Poole and Wiggins will be a big question for them. And then the second tier, Payton, Kuminga, Looney, Porter and others. So it's going to be a big decision for the organization who they are going to maintain or then who is going to leave their championship team. Of course we wanted to see the team intact and defend their title, but it will be difficult at their situation as they will be over the luxury tax.

Kyrie has opted into his contract with the Nets. He’s secured his bag, now he needs to find a team to trade for him. By opting in, he ends the Lakers speculation that LeBron will get him to sign for the minimum and then get him his Nike deal back.
Good for him. It's the most practical decision to make given all the circumstances. He could still try with KD for another season and split up if they fail. I'm pretty sure Kyrie will still have a good value by then unless he gets seriously injured.

Quote
This is sparking talk that Kevin Durant might join the Suns… That would be interesting. I don’t think it’ll happen, but there’s talks happening…
CP3 and KD in one team is an intriguing proposition to be honest. I would love too see that but it's a tough trade to pull off. Suns will have to give up a lot for this to happen.

Kyrie Irving will always be a valuable asset to any given team that's why there's still teams out there who would want to acquire him but upon acquiring him, they also have to deal with Irving's selfishness and he's thinking that he's that really entitled because of what he can bring to the team.

CP3 and KD in the same jersey is really an interesting to thing to see and lot's of fans are surely want to see it but yes, that will be an expensive acquisition for the Suns and I don't think they can afford to trade their current roster.
Suns are gonna trade Deandre Ayton, if they could work a deal for KD that would be a very impressive team next year. The Suns already had the best record in the West last year, imagine adding KD to CP3 Devin Booker, Crowder, Cameron Payne, and Bridges. Warriors would be in some trouble.
Deandre Ayton surely won't be enough if KD will go in the Suns, the team should let 2-3 players go in-exchange for KD. But rumors says that Ayton will likely end up in Hawks or Spurs but both said teams are not giving him max contract for now, they still want to test him for atleast a year before reaching that kind of agreement.

I think by Kyrie opting in, that pretty much means they're going to run it back with KD, Kyrie, and Ben Simmons.  That's going to be one awkward preseason...  I don't think they have any chance at making it work though.  Between stories of Kyrie insulting Nash in his own house, "can I see Kobe's MVP trophies?" and rumors of a rift between KD and Kyrie, not to mention that nobody seems to like Ben Simmons, and them making the Finals seems impossible.  We'll see...  Aging world class talent and disfunction didn't work too well for the Lakers...

Clippers might be looking for a shortcut and they want to build right away a championship team. It's not the players that made this team better but their system, so as long as the system is working, anyone who would play with the team will get better.

We do know that shortcut might not work for players that are injury prone like Wall. Lakers try to make that formula last season, with WB and Melo and others good by way past their prime stars, but it was a disaster. So for me, no need to get that route, no shortcuts. They really has to work very hard, just like what the Warriors have to endure when they have a lot of injuries. But instead they have to go back, long hard and grind and after 2 years, they are the champions again.

Well, they know better so I will just trust their decision in case they will trade a bunch of players for John Wall. I feel that Clippers are looking for another option in case Leonard gets injured again and with PG and Wall, I think they can still be a championship team.

That's likely the case, you know, it's much better to have other plans in-case PG or Leonard will be injured again this coming season. But if these guys can maintain their health and won't be injured, I can honestly say that the LA Clippers have a powerful duo especially Leonard.

They could've won the last play-in tournament but PG was suddenly sidelined for Covid-19 which made the team weaker to get eliminated, but I think they could've been eliminated in the 1st round or 2nd round if they got past play-in.

If they will still be good for this upcoming season, maybe the Warriors would consider them to be just like Steph and Klay to stay with them as much as they want but it won't be that exclusive just like these two have. But that's still a good deal for them, right?

We don't really know what the future could bring, and we don't really know what they are thinking so I think it is up to them to decide, but for me, the Golden State Warriors have really given them the opportunity and the break that they deserve, And I think that season finals was their big moment but in my opinion it is not enough they can surely stay for the Warriors and still enhanced those skills and technique that they have and who knows many teams will surely consider them a great offer, of their lifetime,



Well, there's now much expectation on them and I think they'll level up their performance for the upcoming season and there will be now more fans on them thinking that they'll be playing again for each game at their best.

There is also a great hype on Jordan Poole to be the next Stephen Curry, and as now part of the Splash Brothers Jordan Poole would likely leave the Golden State Warriors or stay it is their decision to decide, but they sure have a great moment with them and in the next season many are saying that the Golden State Warriors may have a chance on doing it again,


Jordan poole and Andrew Wiggins is a good tandem for the warriors even though they don't have curry and Thompson in the floor but still they have a good defender and also scorer which is Wiggins can scored will and poole will help him. Of this lineup are still next season for sure a big chance of winning are there. If they want to stay in the warriors as long as they give their best on every match for sure that they can stay on the team when ever they want to stay.

Many Warriors fans would surely love that, in my opinion, if they want to suppress their last performance they need to stick their noses with the Golden State Warriors, if they like to up their game, they surely need to learn from the best, but yes Wiggins and Poole's performance surely leveled up this season if this continued they will be superstars or in the future legends,

I think it's all set that they'll be giving Poole a 4-years contract for $100-M. That's the latest that I've read but that's not detailed at all and just shown the numbers and such.

I think Jordan Poole has the best highlights in his NBA Career I think he will still give another shot next season with the Warriors even though the Warriors are just giving them a little hefty sum I think it is still an increase, and the Warriors are not rushing in with Andrew Wiggins and Jordan Poole to sign their respective contracts I think they know that Wiggins and Poole have a good start with their Careers with the Warriors so they will still be stay at least next season, or they can stay forever if they like,
If they will still be good for this upcoming season, maybe the Warriors would consider them to be just like Steph and Klay to stay with them as much as they want but it won't be that exclusive just like these two have. But that's still a good deal for them, right?

Yes, they're not just doing it because the fans want so but they've seen the whole potential of the roster with these two and that's why they're not going to let go of them will try everything they can to keep them.

On my thought I think they surely showed what they really got in the last matches of the NBA, now many teams have really know their potential and what are they capable of, I really wish they can still upgrade in terms of their skill next season,
Well, there's now much expectation on them and I think they'll level up their performance for the upcoming season and there will be now more fans on them thinking that they'll be playing again for each game at their best.

I also don't think that Clippers should trade John Wall. He hasn't been playing in any game since April 24, 2021. This is a huge interval for a basketball player and it is hard to rely on that player again for some time at least. They can at least monitor his performance at Rockets for some time and then decide what to do. He was of course a very talented player but we don't know how he will return. I also agree with @Yaunfitda that Clippers should already be comfortable with George and Leonard for now.
Wall does not play because he doesn't like his team, he just wants to be traded and I don't think because he didn't play that will lessen his value. IMO, Wall still belongs to the league of superstar in the NBA, and he can be a big help for the Clippers campaign to win a championship.

Remains to be seen, and it sound familiar (Harden), but it's not going to be easy for him as Clippers have already a established stars in Kawhi and PG13. How will he fit? for sure he will dislodge some of their players already like Reggie Jackson who has been playing good last season. On the contrary, it could backfire on them if Wall see that he is not giving enough time on the floor and then not giving his 100% every game, just saying.

I actually think it's a perfect fit for wall.  Wall and Harden are completely different types of players.  Harden likes to dominate the ball.  Wall orchestrates insaneltly well for his teammates.  Put him together with 2 guys who can also create for themselves and all the pressure isn't on him to get his team looks.  He can slow roll his way back in.  Injuries though with kawhi, Wall and pg don't line up well.  Will see how long all 3 can be on the floor without being out.

Chemistry is the most important, everyone should play according to their respective roles.

And chemistry will be a big problem if Wall will not adopt the system of Clippers and he also want to shine among with his current star. We know how dominant George and Kawhi is so if they get wall then he will not be a good fit on this team well maybe we can see another Westbrook like drama on this team. But let see how they take action on this.

They can at least monitor his performance at Rockets for some time and then decide what to do. He was of course a very talented player but we don't know how he will return. I also agree with @Yaunfitda that Clippers should already be comfortable with George and Leonard for now.
Wall does not play because he doesn't like his team, he just wants to be traded and I don't think because he didn't play that will lessen his value. IMO, Wall still belongs to the league of superstar in the NBA, and he can be a big help for the Clippers campaign to win a championship.

Remains to be seen, and it sound familiar (Harden), but it's not going to be easy for him as Clippers have already a established stars in Kawhi and PG13. How will he fit? for sure he will dislodge some of their players already like Reggie Jackson who has been playing good last season. On the contrary, it could backfire on them if Wall see that he is not giving enough time on the floor and then not giving his 100% every game, just saying.
Chemistry is the most important, everyone should play according to their respective roles.

And chemistry will be a big problem if Wall will not adopt the system of Clippers and he also want to shine among with his current star. We know how dominant George and Kawhi is so if they get wall then he will not be a good fit on this team well maybe we can see another Westbrook like drama on this team. But let see how they take action on this.

Wall would not do that, if he wants to shine again, he should do it with the Clippers as this team is a championship team. Reggie Jackson already know his role before he joined the Clippers, if I'm not mistaken, he wasn't a starter when he first join the Clippers, so with Wall, I'm sure he will give way.
