Should GS go after a big man or wait for free agency?
Monday morning, Brian Scalabrine of the Boston Celtics started non-football sports talk in the states, with spreading a crazy rumor like wildfire. The New England television analysis revealed that a particular team in green was in talks to acquire Klay Thompson – but wouldn’t specify who.
While the Golden State Warriors are in desperate need of a front court presence next June for the Cleveland Cavaliers, we have serious doubts Boston would get rid of Al Horford for another jump shooter. During morning shoot-arounds, soon after, Coach Steve Kerr addressed the rumors in the video above – citing the whole thing as bullshit.
Despite averaging 18 points alongside captains Steph Curry and Kevin Durant, he’s struggled from deep during the majority of the infantile stages of the season. Let us know in the comments below if you think Golden State will part ways with Klay if they lose another run at the Larry O’Brien Trophy next summer – or if they should pull the trigger right now.
By the way, he’s only in year one of his four-year, $70 million deal.
