It’s an easy rumor to run through the NBA trade machines these days.
Golden State comes to town on Friday and not only drives off with the 140-131 win, but also with a Zach LaVine on the bus ride up to Milwaukee, while leaving behind four-time NBA Champion Klay Thompson.
Big salary for big salary.
Headache of a contract for fading star on an expiring deal.
Unfortunately, the on-line trade machines are the only place that deal works because reality says otherwise for LaVine’s services.
