That's a stupid trade for the Nets. But the Nets are stupid so there you go.

The only benefit for the Warriors there is that they'd still have Monta Ellis and could turn him for something else.

Curry is one of the best shooters I've ever seen and Klay Thompson looks the same. If they can get a playmaker at the 3 that will make them very dangerous.
I would offer David Lee and a 1st round pick to Philadelphia for Andre Iguodala. Don't know if Philly would take that, but that's better for Golden State. Yea, David Lee and Andrew Bogut sound great together, and Lee is a very good passer, but you need a playmaker at the 3 and I can't really think of any other options.
That sounds horrible. Big men are a premium and you're gonna give a top 7 pick away for Iggy? C'mon! Klay will be solid and can play the 2 or 3. There are plenty of 2 and 3s always available, but the fact is there are rarely any 4 and 5's available, especially ones who aren't head cases.
