Guessing we give a second so we can fit him into our trade exception
I think its better than just adding Dennis and throwing our hands up and saying "well, what now?"
But only slightly. Not much
I will eat crow if I am wrong, but how did you go from it "might be a sign and trade" to "losing Monk" for a Schroeder sign and trade? Nothing said anything about losing Monk. In fact, a lot of sign and trades are done with nothing (except a heavily protected/distant second round pick, or rights to some guy that was drafted 6 years ago and is still overseas) going back to the other team. The sign and trade is usually a solid for the other team so that they can create a trade exception.
Maybe I am totally wrong, but jumping to total speculation that we are trading Monk for Schroeder seems totally bonkers to me.
Softening the blow?

I mean one of our guards have to go
Monk is levels better than Westbrick and Schroeder what are we doing here
Some of Yall wanted Monte gone *you know who you are*, gotta live with the results
Chavano Rainer looks lile a competent player on the Warriors, think how Monk will play there.

I’m not worried about the Warriors. I just want the Kings to improve and accumulate talent. Kuminga has huge upside
If it is Monk for Schroeder that is terrible. Like "what the hell are we doing" levels of terrible. But that isn't what anyone said. It says Schroeder will be a sign and trade. Separately, it says Monk will be the odd man out. I still think it is probably a Schroeder for second round pick sign and trade that allows Detroit to create a TPE and allows us to keep our MLE intact. Then, I would assume we would acquire some other asset for Monk in a separate trade. So I think the appropriate question will be is whether we would rather have Monk or rather have Schroeder plus the additional asset.
And if I am wrong, and it is Schroder for Monk, I agree that it is terrible.

It’s hard to say with Monk. We all love him but he doesn’t play defense and would be my choice to go between him, Keon and Devin. If he has no market (alleged) it might be good just to clear off his salary and have money for another position

So we’re giving up assets for a downgrade hoping we get more for monk in a separate trade either way it’s idiotic we’re not OKC/houston we don’t have picks to be throwing away while not making the playoffs

Honestly, this is a good move. Garza at that price vs. Kornet? Heck yeah.

Warriors fans also once claimed Buddy was going to be better than Klay Thompson.
Except that Kornet is pretty good
