Giants sweeping the Dodgers in LA was probably the last thing I expected this weekend. What a series they had.

Future looks bright! Maybe Fitzgerald is the next guy to get called up?

With all the injuries maybe sooner rather than later. I’m really excited for this youth movement.

Rumored Poole for CP3. Pretty good stabilizing force off the bench. Thought the two time-line approach was a failure anyway.

Glad Poole is gone.

Glad Poole is gone.

I’m NOT glad about acquiring CP3. He’s the enemy. I liken it to us acquiring Dustin Brown.

It's Jordan Peele btw. There was a huge typo...

Warriors trade away 2030 protected 1st rounder for Paul

the NBA is just sooooo stupid, no real rules, you can do whatever you want, freaking inmates run the asylum

2030 wtf

CP3 is old and less than half the player he used to be. The Warriors will probably regret this one day.

But yeah trading away picks 7 years down the road is exactly the thing I'd expect a joke of a professional sports league to allow.

The core has a 3-year window. Paul helps the team more right now off the bench more than Poole. You sacrifice the future any way you can if that means giving Curry a better chance at another Championship.

in b4 trade is voided for basketball reasons

I know Bettman gets a lot of shit around these parts, but he will never even be a fraction as bad of a commissioner as Manfred. Like seriously, what the f*** is wrong with this dude?

Manfred: A's protest followed years of 'inaction'

MLB commissioner Rob Manfred said one big turnout by Oakland Athletics fans doesn't change "a decade worth of inaction" as he defended earlier comments about the "reverse boycott" held in protest of the team's proposed move to Las Vegas.

Draymond Green (allegedly) being traded to the Lakers.

Good riddance.

That's less-so a rumor and moreso a baseless proposal from a random analyst.

 

[WTFetus]

Draymond reported 4 years 100 million; player option his final year. Not awful for a win-now timeline.

No truth to this.

I went to the Giants game today and what an embarrassing display. They were swinging at the first pitch the entire game, and I think there were at least three innings where Gilbert only had to go 5 or less pitches. The All Star Break can't come soon enough for this walking wounded team.

Any update on Brock Purdys recovery from surgery? Would love it if he was legitimately ready for week 1 of the season. Id love it even more if Trey crushed the pre season and showed he’s QB1
