A more reasonable target for Golden State is Milwaukee’s Luc Mbah a Moute. On the surface, he could perhaps be the best fit of all for the Warriors. If you examine the composition of the Warriors’ starting lineup, they have an arsenal of scorers. What they truly need is a prime-time defender on the wing and there are few better than Mbah a Moute. The Bucks may be reluctant to deal Mbah a Moute, yet where does he really fit into the Bucks’ plans? He only started 23 games last season, partly because of a sore knee, and the Bucks still have Mike Dunleavy, who is coming off an outstanding season, and an intriguing young player in Tobias Harris. What’s more, they could still keep Carlos Delfino, who’ll become an unrestricted free agent July 1. Would a package of Mbah a Moute and the 12th pick be enough to nab the Warriors’ seventh spot, along with another player for salary-cap purposes? Perhaps. And what would the Bucks do if they possessed the seventh pick? Some NBA officials contend the Bucks, in desperate need a center and legit power forward, especially if Ersan Ilyasova bolts in free agency, would likely look at two players: Connecticut center Andre Drummond and North Carolina power forward John Henson.
How do you feel about this? We'd get Mbah a Moute and the 12th pick for the 7th (and maybe Dorell?)
