Although they made it further than some people expected, theGolden State Warriorsended their season in disappointment.
Now they have some choices to make in the offseason in order to get back to the NBA Finals.
While the thought of trading Stephen Curry or Klay Thompson is still preposterous, there are other players on the roster who could be dealt away.
Former Warriors star Gilbert Arenas has an idea.
According to NBC news, via NBACentral, Arenas said Golden State should part ways with Jordan Poole for a bigger star.
I m going to try to move him and maybe if I can move him I can get Jaylen Brown? Arenas proposed.

Both Poole and Brown have been attached to multiple trade rumors over the last season.
Poole recently signed a new deal with the Warriors but he has been a bit lackluster since then, especially during the playoffs.
For the season, Poole produced 20.4 points, 2.7 rebounds, and 4.5 assists.
Yet, during the playoffs he was only good for 10.3 points, 2.2 rebounds, and 3.5 assists.
As for Brown, he has been much stronger with 22.7 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 3.3 assists per game.
Yet, there has been consistent speculation that he would like to try his hand with another team, one where he could be a more central figure.
If the Warriors ever pursued a deal to swap Poole with Brown, they would certainly get a lot of star power that could help them.
As for the Celtics, they would get a young star who has plenty of potential but has been hit or miss lately.
Would this potential deal help both teams and would either be interested in taking it?
