@sportslarryk NO is treating Murphy like he’s a #1 on a title contender. They want a ton. What’s he done for them? How’s he elevated them? They’ve had some talent there and stink.
@KG10247201@BillSimmons I think the NBA hates the Warriors franchise even though they love Steph. They're the reason for the 2nd apron rules when Lacob paid the huge payroll taxes instead of breaking up the team. The other owners bitched to the league to stop him.
@UnderdogWNBA@kendra__andrews Then the new CBA is absurd. It's better for a team in only it's second season to throw away the 8th pick in the draft for nothing?
I guess not too surprising since the NBA is the worst run league. Now, they're screwing up the WNBA.
@nathancanilao Cap flexibility only works if the player you want to sign wants to play for you.
They must have really not liked any player available from #8 forward.
I've never seen an NBA team throw away a high first round pick for cap reasons.
