The decision this board surrounds ultimately brought in Josh Green. Later outcomes never rewrite the board.CHO on 2024-07-06: the governed pre-decision team-need layer did not support a target-fit conclusion. no source-clocked open candidate route was available. 0 open-market candidate(s) matched at least one listed need. Market access, basketball fit, price, salary route, and legality remain separate.
Why is he here?
Klay Thompson: the reported route for Klay Thompson was rejected, expired, agreed elsewhere, or otherwise not open. The team-need comparison was not supported. The salary screen was available, but contract-control records were ambiguous. Exact transaction legality remains withheld without a complete package and exception ledger.
era-correct salary lane screen only; exact apron team salary, post-trade salary, aggregation, exception inventory, guarantees, bonuses and full package remain required for legality
prior-season impact context: -0.0 per 100 (O 0.7 / D -0.7) — Prior impact context is separate from team fit, price, and transaction value.
Historical decision board. A public-market player is not presented as a team target without a named team link. Minimum outgoing salary is not exact legality. Missing asking price is not a zero price. Later outcomes do not alter the decision-date board.
