<p>Plenty of blockbuster trades took the league by storm a few days ago. However, the most unexpected one was probably the<strong> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/golden-state-warriors">Golden State Warriors</a></strong> sending<strong> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jordan-poole">Jordan Poole</a></strong> to the<strong> Washington Wizards</strong> in exchange for<strong> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/chris-paul">Chris Paul</a></strong>.</p>



<p>Poole played in a poor way during the playoffs, but there is no denying his preseason incident with<strong> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/draymond-green">Draymond Green</a></strong> had a lot to do with the trade. Since that day in which Green punched him in a practice, there have been rumors about one of them having to leave.</p>

<p><strong>Green is currently a free agent after declining his player option</strong>. He is still expected to return unless another offer blows him away. But the defensive star made headlines when he was asked to pick a starting lineup using players from random teams on TikTok.</p>



<h2>Warriors’ Green leaves Poole out of his lineup</h2>



<p>In a video posted by Bleacher Report, the player had to pick his starting lineup choosing players from different team. His final team was PG Darius Garland, SG Dame Lillard, SF Lauri Markkanen, PF Kyle Kuzma, and C Bam Adebayo.</p>



<p>Nobody is going to choose Poole over Lillard, but when the Wizards logo popped up the shooting guard position was available. However, his reaction had most fans connecting Green to his former teammate. “Washington? (laughs)<strong> Who’s still on Washington’s team?</strong> Kuz, I’m taking Kuz at the forward”, Green answered.</p>

<p>The <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/golden-state-warriors" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Golden State Warriors</a></strong> need to do whatever it takes to get <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/golden-state-warriors" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Draymond Green </a></strong>locked up for the future. They don’t stand a chance to <strong>win an <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nba" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NBA</a> championship</strong> without him.</p>



<p>Green is one of the most impactful two-way players in the league. And as such, he deserves to get one last big payday before he’s ready to ride into the sunset and walk away from the game.</p>



<p>That’s why he’s open to listening to multiple offers before making a final decision. However, he’s still keeping<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/stephen-curry" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> <strong>Stephen Curry</strong></a><strong> and Klay Thompson</strong> up to date with everything revolving around his free-agency process.</p>



<h2>Draymond Green Is Keeping Stephen Curry And Klay Thompson Updated Amid His Free Agency Saga</h2>



<p><strong><em>“You know I’m going through free agency right now. And you hear this, and you hear that, and I’m just updating them on my thoughts every step of the way,”</em></strong> Green said on Paul George’s ‘Podcast P’. <em>“I update them because I don’t want to get to a point where if I was to leave, A. you can’t control the news anymore. And if I leave, it’s just like, ‘Wham, hey fellas, just FYI, I’m gone.&apos;”</em></p>



<p><em>“Or it can come across at your phone and I didn’t get a chance to tell you. I’m in touch with them a couple of times a week right now, letting them know my minds<strong>et, what I’m thinking, what I’m hearing,”</strong> </em>Green added.</p>

<p>The Lakers not only need to go after another star, but they also have to make sure they have <strong>the right rotation</strong> for a very demanding year. And one of their depth moves could mean landing a former teammate of Curry in the Bay area.</p>



<h2>Rumor: Lakers could be interested in Donte DiVincenzo</h2>



<p>According to Brett Siegel of <em>ClutchPoints</em>, the Los Angeles Lakers are among a group of teams who could sign <strong>Donte DiVincenzo</strong>, who is set to become a free agent after spending the last season with Curry in San Francisco:</p>



<p><em>“DiVincenzo opted out of his $4.7 million player option with the Warriors and is expected to receive offers from teams utilizing most of their mid-level exception, if not all of it. <strong>The Los Angeles Lakers, Dallas Mavericks and Cavaliers have been mentioned as possible suitors for DiVincenzo</strong>, sources said, with the New York Knicks also coming up in multiple reports around the league.”</em></p>

<p>At 26, DiVincenzo can still be a useful rotational piece for a team that needs depth. His time with the Warriors may be over, but he’s <strong>expected to have many suitors</strong> in the open market.</p>

<p>Not so long ago, the<strong> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/golden-state-warriors" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Golden State Warriors</a> </strong>made us all think that <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jordan-poole" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Jordan Poole </a></strong>was going to be their star for the future, signing him to a big contract extension <strong>right after the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nba" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NBA</a> Finals.</strong></p>



<p>That didn’t last long, as Poole was a constant talking point — for the wrong reasons — this season, looking sluggish and uncoachable in the playoffs and <strong>failing to build from that career-best campaign.</strong></p>



<p>According to a report by<strong> Mike Battaglino of AHN Fire Digital</strong>, that wasn’t much of a surprise for <strong>Steve Kerr and company.</strong> Apparently, the Warriors traded him for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/chris-paul" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><strong>Chris Paul </strong></a>because they didn’t feel he was an actual fit for their roster.</p>



<h2>Warriors Considered Jordan Poole An ‘Extraneous And Inefficient’ Player</h2>



<p><em>“What’s clear to me after a few days of checking around is that this all began when the Warriors decided that Jordan Poole <strong>was an extraneous and inefficient member of their roster,”</strong></em> wrote Battaglino. </p>



<p><em>“That was the precipitating issue. The Warriors wanted out of the $123 million deal they gave Poole only eight months earlier because his play last season didn’t meet that value, especially given their extreme luxury-tax pressure,”</em> the report added. “<strong><em>They knew he wanted a bigger role and they knew that almost certainly wouldn’t happen as long as Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson were on the team. The Warriors weren’t going to give Poole away, but they were ready to move on if the right deal came along.”</em></strong></p>

<p>Of course, one could wonder if the deal they got for him was the right deal, but that’s a whole different debate. Whatever the case, he’ll now be free to take as many shots as he wants and might even lead the league in scoring, and the Warriors can now build the roster<strong> with players who fit their scheme better.</strong></p>

<p>Though <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/damian-lillard">Damian Lillard</a></strong> has been the subject of multiple trade rumors, it looks like his intention is to stay at the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/portland-trail-blazers">Portland Trail Blazers</a></strong>. But not at all costs, as he reportedly hopes the team lands a teammate of <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/stephen-curry">Stephen Curry</a></strong> at the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/golden-state-warriors">Golden State Warriors</a></strong>.</p>



<p>While Dame has been linked with other teams on multiple occasions, all these years he proved to be loyal to the franchise that drafted him in 2012. But the front office failed to build <strong>a true supporting cast</strong> around the guard.</p>



<p>That’s what led to speculation that Lillard could leave for a contender, especially if the Blazers will once again rebuild this summer. However, the 32-year-old reportedly still wishes to challenge for a ring in Portland.</p>



<h2>Rumor: Lillard’s dream scenario would be playing next to Draymond Green in Portland</h2>



<p>According to Sam Amick of <em>The Athletic</em>, Damian Lillard’s dream scenario would be to have <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/draymond-green">Draymond Green</a></strong> as a teammate while the Blazers re-sign Jerami Grant, who becomes a free agent this offseason.</p>

<p>Green would certainly be the kind of star partner the Blazers couldn’t give Lillard all these years. His contract with the Dubs <strong>runs out in 2024</strong>, so his future in the Bay area is also in question. If Portland somehow manages to land Green, Dame would probably stay.</p>

<p>The <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/golden-state-warriors" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Golden State Warriors</a> </strong>aren’t excatly a young team. They’ve failed to make the most of youngins like <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jordan-poole" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Jordan Poole</a> or James Wiseman,</strong> which is why they needed to find someone who could contribute right away to their <strong>pursuit of another <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nba" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NBA </a>title.</strong></p>



<p>Finding NBA-ready rookies is never easy, especially when you pick <strong>outside of the lot</strong>tery like the Warriors usually do. Also, finding a guy for their system might be easier said than done.</p>



<p>But now that most of the attention will obviou<strong>sly center on Stephen Curry or <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/chris-paul" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Chris Paul,</a> Steve Kerr</strong> has plenty of confidence in this year’s first-round pick, <strong>Brandin Podziemski.</strong></p>



<h2>Steve Kerr Raves About Brandin Podziemski</h2>



<p><strong><em>“We were excited that he was available,” </em></strong>Kerr said on the Pull Up! podcast. “<em>There were a couple of guys we were really interested in knowing who might be available when we picked, and he was one of them. So we were thrilled.”</em></p>



<p><strong><em> “The reason we were excited is he’s got a really good set of tools,”</em></strong> the coach continued. <em>“He can dribble, pass, shoot. He’s unafraid. He’s got a good size. He can build a lot of momentum going to the hoop. He’s got a nice float game. He shot 43.8% from three last year at Santa Clara, and he averaged 8.5 rebounds per game which is almost unheard of for a guard. <strong>So, a lot of great numbers—numbers that translate well, too.”</strong></em></p>



<p><em>“There are certain numbers that usually translate, and rebounding is one of them that shows a real knack for the ball and anticipating plays.<strong> We like Brandin’s skill set, and also just his makeup and aggressiveness. We think he’s got a chance to be a really good player,”</strong></em> concluded Kerr.</p>

<p>The<strong> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/golden-state-warriors">Warriors</a></strong>‘ recent acquisition of point guard<strong> Chris Paul</strong> from the Washington Wizards demonstrates their commitment to supporting<strong> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/stephen-curry">Stephen Curry</a></strong> and their championship aspirations. However, they still have to address the contract situation of<strong> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/draymond-green">Draymond Green</a></strong>.</p>



<p>While the addition of Paul strengthens their veteran core, the team must also take care of their most important free agent. Considering the relationship the Warriors have with Green they are expected to retain him, but that’s not guaranteed.</p>

<p>Green opted out of his player option, so he is going to become a free agent. There were rumors that even the<strong> Memphis Grizzlies</strong> were interested in him, something that shows the defensive star should draw plenty of interest from other teams.</p>



<h2>The Warriors could lose Draymond Green to one of these teams</h2>



<p>Negotiating a new deal with Green is crucial to preserving his versatile skills and leadership on the court. The front office remains focused on creating a cohesive roster capable of contending for another title next season, so keeping him on the roster is a priority.</p>



<p>Green should be pursued by multiple teams in free agency, but those with more cap space have a better chance to get him. <strong>The Sacramento Kings, Portland Trail Blazers and Detroit Pistons</strong> are expected to make move for the Warriors’ player, according to Jake Fischer of Yahoo Sports.</p>

<p>The<strong> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/golden-state-warriors">Warriors</a></strong>‘ commitment to supporting<strong> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/stephen-curry">Stephen Curry</a></strong> is evident in their recent transaction.

<p>Head coach<strong> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/steve-kerr">Steve Kerr</a></strong> felt it was necessary to introduce a proven player into the rotation, and as a result, the team has struck a surprising deal that sent<strong> Jordan Poole</strong> to the Wizards. Not because Paul’s skill set, but because of the rivalry he has with Golden State in past matchups.</p>

" title="Steve Kerr explains why the Warriors traded Jordan Poole for Chris Paul" publication_id="BUS#20230624#BUS#17372"></div>


<p>This decision was especially unexpected due to the intense rivalry. However, it shows the front office will do everything they can to give Curry, Thompson and maybe<strong> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dryamond-green">Draymond Green</a></strong> a chance to go for another championship.</p>



<h2>Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson share their opinions on Chris Paul</h2>



<p>The players that hadn’t spoken about the trade were the two most important players of the team. However, both Curry and Thompson talked about the veteran acquisition ahead of the famous golf event called “The Match”.</p>



<p>“The business is crazy. We all know that. If you asked us six months ago if this was something that could happen, the answer probably would’ve been no just based on where we were. Then you get to the summer and are trying to find ways to get better and put yourself in a position to chase another championship.<strong> Every team that CP has been on gets better</strong>. That’s the most consistent thing about him, and who he is and what he brings to the team. Everybody’s going to talk about the age. It’s on us to put that all together and figure out how all the pieces work. we’re trying to win next year and CP can help us do that”, Curry said to Anthony Slater of The Athletic.</p>



<p>Klay went in the same direction than his friend. “Any time you get to play with a player who is one of the best of your generation it’s an honor.<strong> It’s a little weird because we’ve had so many battles in the past with Chris, and he’s led so many teams that nearly knocked us off or did knock us off all the way back in 2014</strong>. I think he’s just going to add such a calming presence and leadership component that we need. I know Steph and him have a long history together being both from North Carolina. For me, it’s going to be a smooth transition playing with such a passer and playmaker, I’m just excited”, Thompson added.</p>

Warriors could lose Draymond Green over latest decision

Chris Paul reveals his true feelings about Stephen Curry

Warriors could lose Draymond Green over latest decision - Bolavip US

<p>It became evident that the<strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/golden-state-warriors" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Golden State Warriors </a></strong>needed a bit of a shift, <strong>so moving on from <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jordan-poole">Jordan Poole</a> made sense</strong>. But trading him for <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/chris-paul" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Chris Paul</a> </strong>was rather bold.</p>



<p>While there’s no denying that Paul is one of the smartest players to ever live, his style of play doesn’t look suited for <strong>Steve Kerr’s</strong> run-and-gun, full-motion, rather chaotic offense.</p>



<p>That’s why former <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nba" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NBA</a></strong> player<strong> JJ Redick</strong> — who actually played with Paul — took some time to dig deep into the numbers and explain why this will be an awkward fit for both sides.</p>



<h2>JJ Redick Explains Chris Paul’s Odd Fit With The Warriors</h2>



<p>“<em><strong>Chris is smart enough; he’s one of the smartest basketball players ever,”</strong></em> Redick said. <em>“He’s gonna figure out a way to contribute and help them win games, <strong>but the contrast in play style is very apparent.</strong> He’s a methodical player, he’s calculated, all of that stuff.”</em></p>



<p><strong><em>“The numbers back it up,” </em></strong>the former shooting guard continued. <em>“There’s some great stuff on this. So speed on offense: Warriors this past year, they had the sixth fastest average speed on offense. Paul had the slowest average speed on offense amongst players with 1000 minutes played. Average touch length– <strong>Warriors had the shortest average touch length on offense at 2.7 seconds. Chris Paul had the seventh-longest average touch length at 5.6 seconds.”</strong></em></p>



<p><em>“The other part is, since Steve Kerr took over, the Golden State Warriors have ran the fewest ball screens in the NBA,”</em> Redick added. <em><strong>“Last year, Chris had the fourth most on-ball screens in the NBA. Warriors had the third-fewest. So in that regard, maybe there’s more pick-and-roll.”</strong></em></p>

<p><strong>Stephen Curry and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/chris-paul" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Chris Paul </a></strong>have been rivals and foes for almost a decade. The <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/golden-state-warriors" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Golden State Warriors</a></strong> star took his spot as the undisputed best point guard in the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/steve-kerr-explains-why-the-warriors-traded-jordan-poole-for-chris-paul-20230624-BUS-17372.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NBA,</a> </strong>and he got the best of him more often than not.</p>



<p>One of Curry’s ultimate highlights actually involves breaking Paul’s ankles, and there has been a bit of back-and-forth between them, with<strong> Draymond Green </strong>even admitting that he’s fueled that debate.</p>



<p>That’s why <strong>the J<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jordan-poole" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">ordan Poole</a> trade</strong> was rather controversial, as Paul will now have to serve as Curry’s backup. Even so, when asked about that, CP3 claims there’s no bad blood whatsoever.</p>



<h2>Chris Paul Says He’s Excited About Playing With Stephen Curry</h2>



<p><strong><em>“Me and Steph have known each other a long time,” </em></strong>the veteran point guard told ESPN.<strong><em> “My wife was at his wedding; I think him and his wife was at our wedding.”</em></strong></p>



<p>“<em>But we’ve known each other for a very long time, so I’m excited to get a chance to play alongside him, Klay, Wig, Draymond, all them, man,<strong> they got an unbelievable organization, and that team is just, they’ve been playing together for a while, and they know what they’re doing,”</strong></em> Paul added.</p>

Chris Paul reveals his true feelings about Stephen Curry - Bolavip US

<p>Some<strong> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nba" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NBA</a> players</strong> get paid and work even harder. Others handle themselves differently, even around those who were there first and actually helped them get their bag. Former<strong> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/golden-state-warriors" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Golden State Warriors</a> star </strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jordan-poole" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><strong>Jordan Poole</strong> </a>is one of the latter.</p>



<p>Reports from training camp stated that he had changed since signing that big contract, and it didn’t take long before it became loud and clear that <strong>he didn’t respect his veterans or even his coaching staff.</strong></p>



<p>That’s why it was far from surprising to know that<strong> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/golden-state-warriors" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Draymond Green</a> took matters into his own hands — sort of speak,</strong> and punched him during practice. And now that he’s not a part of the team anymore, Hip-Hop star<strong> Cam’ron</strong> finally revealed what led to this punch.</p>



<h2>Cam’Ron Reveals What Jordan Poole Told Draymond Green Before The Punch</h2>



<p><em>“The first day he told Draymond Green… <strong>‘I f— more b-tches at Michigan State than you,’</strong></em>” Cam’ron revealed. <em>“They was running sprints he told Draymond, ‘<strong>Don’t worry about it you’ll be in Sacramento next year.</strong>‘” </em></p>



<p>“<em>Then he told Draymond,<strong> ‘Why’s your Twitter handle MoneyGreen if u broke, u not gettin’ another contract.</strong>‘ That was the straw that broke the camel’s back,” </em>Cam’ron added.</p>

NBA Rumors: Two teams tried to trade with Warriors for Jordan Poole before the Wizards

Steve Kerr says trading Jordan Poole is actually positive

This is what Jordan Poole told Draymon Green before the punch - Bolavip US

<p>Just one year ago, the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/golden-state-warriors" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Golden State Warriors</a> </strong>signed<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jordan-poole" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> <strong>Jordan Poole</strong></a> to a massive contract extension, rewarding him for his breakout season and helping them win an <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nba" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NBA </a>championship.</strong></p>



<p>But Poole’s attitude and game changed right after getting paid, up to the point where it didn’t feel like he was enjoying his teammates’ company and vice versa, not to mention that altercation with <strong>Draymond Green.</strong></p>



<p>That’s why the team made the decision to trade him for<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/chris-paul" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> <strong>Chris Paul’s </strong></a><strong>expiring contract.</strong> Moreover, coach<strong> Steve Kerr </strong>recently admitted that might as well be a positive shift for the team.</p>



<h2>Steve Kerr Is Unbothered By The Jordan Poole Trade</h2>



<p><strong><em>“We’re going to be a lot different,”</em></strong> Kerr told The Athletic. <em>“The last thing I’m going to do is say anything about a team that just won a championship a year ago and then fought through a difficult season.<strong> Made a helluva run at the end of this year. I’ve loved this group that we’ve had (for) the last couple (of) years.”</strong></em></p>



<p><strong><em>“But the biggest point is that we sensed we needed a shift,”</em></strong> Kerr added.<em> “Didn’t mean we needed an overhaul, but we needed a shift of some sort. I think everybody in the organization sensed that. <strong>And it feels like we’ve made a pretty significant shift without giving up our identity and our sense of who we are as a team. I think, all in all, it’s a very positive shift.”</strong></em></p>

<p>Truth be told, Poole may have played his way out of the team with that careless and selfish attitude. The Warriors will find a tough time replacing his offensive production, but the locker room<strong> might be in a </strong>much better place right now.</p>


Steve Kerr says trading Jordan Poole is actually positive - Bolavip US

<p>For years, people in<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nba" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> <strong>NBA</strong></a><strong> </strong>circles have especulated about <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/golden-state-warriors" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><strong>Draymond Green’s</strong> </a>future. He’s been a <strong>major contributor to the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/golden-state-warriors" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Golden State Warriors </a></strong>since he entered the league, and it’s hard to envision him somewhere else.</p>



<p>But the fact of the matter is that Green is an unrestricted free agent, and as such, he’s got the right to sign <strong>with any team of his choosing</strong>. Moreover, he’s going to have plenty of offers sitting on his table.</p>



<p>However, <strong>NBA insider Marc Stein </strong>believes the Warriors will keep him around for the long run, as all it would take to keep him side by side with <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/stephen-curry" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Stephen Curry</a> </strong>would be<strong> a three-year deal worth around $100 million.</strong></p>



<h2>Green Could Get A Three-Year Contract</h2>



<p><em>“I continue to hear nothing but strong confidence emanating from the Bay Area that <strong>an agreement on a multi-year deal for Green to stay right where he’s always been is forthcoming,”</strong></em> Stein wrote.</p>



<p><strong><em>“(A three-year deal, league sources say, is a popular current projection for the 33-year-old),”</em></strong> the report concluded.</p>



<p>Those numbers are now possible thanks to the <strong>Jordan Poole</strong> trade. Both parties got together before Green’s vacation, so it seems like it’s just a matter of time before they sort things out.</p>
