W's Looking To Move Lee

[Pugz]

The Golden State Warriors are searching for a trade of David Lee, who has three seasons and $44 million remaining on his contract.
 
The Warriors offered Lee in a deal for Andrea Bargnani, but the Toronto Raptors elected to send him to the New York Knicks.
 
The Warriors also have offered Lee along with Brandon Rush to the Portland Trail Blazers for LaMarcus Aldridge.

I was shocked at first, but between injuries, age and contract, makes sense.

The Los Angeles Lakers quickly rejected overtures from the Golden State Warriors about a David Lee for Pau Gasol trade last season.
 
The Lakers have been clearing salary from their cap for the 2014 offseason and Lee's deal runs through 15-16, while Gasol has one season remaining.
 
The Warriors are again trying to trade Lee this offseason, according to a report from Yahoo's Adrian Wojnarowski.
 
The Warriors have never received a call from another team about the availability of Lee as he's owed $44 million over the next three seasons. NBA teams are frequently in contact about strictly hypothetical trade scenarios to help gauge the value of their players.
