I suspected it was only a matter of time before things fell apart there chemistry wise, and Klay was the guy I pinned as the one who would want out.  Like I said when KD signed there...  There was only one ball to go around, and it is a huge drop to go from the #2 option, to the #3.

I know Scalabrine backtracked, but where there is smoke, there is usually fire.  You can see the frustration at times on Klay's face during games.  Now, that being said, I would only do MKG + filler and picks, but IDK that they would do that.  It makes sense for them though.  Green would then move back to the third option, and they still have plenty offense with Steph, KD, and Green as their top 3 guys.  MKG would provide them a lockdown defender, so KD wouldn't have to expend much energy defensively, and they honestly don't need his offense.  Furthermore, he could essentially fill Iguodala's role (minus the outside shooting) as a extra ball handler, lockdown defender, and energy guy.  MKG also would likely excel more offensively there with his game as-is, because their shooters spread the floor and they love to get out and run.  He'd be a perfect fit.  

On our end, Klay is no slouch defensively either.  He isn't MKG, but he's really good.  And he gives us another shooter/scorer to pair with Kemba and Batum.  He would provide more spacing for a guy like Hibbert and/or Zeller (if he wasn't a part of the deal).

I love MKG, but the health issues are scary, so if we could use him as a centerpiece for a deal for a guy like Klay, I'd be all over it.  But, for the same reason I would want him to the be the centerpiece in the deal, I could see other teams not wanting to take a chance.

Or we could keep this unit intact and stay on a pace to win 72% of the games. 

 

Yall amaze me sometimes. We a having a historic start and run and some of you are still dissatisfied. 

This. Unity is something extremely undervalued in all sports. We are finally good, let's not fug anything up.
