"It's the balancing act as far as what makes sense now, but doesn't hamper us in the future," president of basketball operations Bob Myers said Wednesday on 95.7 The Game's "Steiny, Guru & Dibs" show. "What can we do that maybe can be beneficial this year and into next year.
"We'll be aggressive. We'll look around. There were years where we had the best record and were pretty quiet at the trade deadline. We didn't really do much or make many calls. I think we'll be more open in making calls and listening to calls than we've been."

Will they actively shop Kelly Oubre, or instead make it a priority to re-sign him in free agency?
It's anybody's guess as to what comes to fruition. But it's fair to expect the Warriors to be involved in a bunch of rumors and reports over the next two weeks.
