So, what of this most recent deal, sending the aforementioned Russell to the Wolves in exchange for Wiggins and a first-rounder. Did the ‘Swindle God’ strike again?
It’s not how anyone imagined Andre Iguodala making his Chase Center debut. He’ll be wearing the wrong color, the wrong number, playing for the wrong team.
For the first time since the Warriors traded away Andre Iguodala to the Memphis Grizzlies as a salary dump in order to acquire D’Angelo Russell, the Warriors will have a chance to see Iguodala on the court.
The Warriors did a nice job of trying to act like D’Angelo Russell was in it for the long haul. Actually, “nice” might be an overstatement. They did a job.
It’s as if Bob Myers is making up for lost time. Since taking over as GM in 2012, Myers has done almost nothing at the trade deadline, electing to stand pat as his first-place teams geared up for championship pushes.
