The Warriors are close to coming to terms with restricted free agent Brandon Rush and are also on the verge of signing free agent power forward Carl Landry, according to Mark Bartelstein, the agent for each player.

Nice signings. Warriors will be in the playoff hunt next year for sure.

Still think their team as currently build is way too jumpshot reliant and not too well balanced enough (Bogut is their only plus defender in their starting lineup - not a lot of defense off the bench either).

I don't think Harrison Barnes is any good, so as a basketball fan I'd kinda like to see them do some kind of trade for a proven SF like Iguodala, who'd complement the rest of their roster quite well.

If Bogut and Curry are healthy either GSW or Wolves will be in the playoffs ( Possibly both depending on Dallas)

Bogut / Biedrins / Ezeli
Lee / Landry / Green
Barnes / Jefferson
Klay Thompson / Rush
Curry / Jack / Robinson

Playoff team barring injuries.

So many teams improved. There will be 10 teams fighting for the bottom 4 seeds in the West.

I'm on the GS bandwagon this year. Lee and Bogut will be pretty damn good.

Nice move. Insurance for Bogut plus a solid 7th man.

Meh. They will get torched by every guard in the league. Lottery again.

I like that team a lot. They have good rebounding and post scoring with Lee and Bogut. Thompson and Curry are both promising young players who are excellent deep ball shooters. Now they add Landry who is the ultimate hustler and plays with heart. Jackson is going to love Landry. Plus they have Jack backing up Curry for insurance and he was a solid starter and now he will be the best backup PG in the league.

Thats a deep and talented team. They have all the pieces to be good.

Mediocre at best. They aren't doing anything relevant.

If they stay healthy they will compete for the 8th spot. The fact that their perimeter d is weak won't matter as much with bogut in the middle. I like what they've done with their roster...

So, here's my questions.

1. Weren't the Warriors over the cap? If so, then that means they used the MLE to sign Landry with, right?

2. If Rush is offered $5 million or more, doesn't this push the Warriors into the luxury tax?

It's time for Morey to offer Rush $18 mil/3 years so Golden will have to decide whether to pay the luxury tax or not.

They will do enough to keep Warriors fans excited. Although it doesn't take much to keep Warriors fans interested.

You said it. If Bogut and Curry remain healthy, they will be fun to watch and might contend for a playoff spot. If Bogut goes down, they will be sorry again.

One of my top 5 favorite Rockets of all time. Will always be a Landry fan.

I like their team. They have a good mix of youth and veterans.

They have great shooter's in the perimeter with Curry, Thompson and Barnes, and size up front with Andrew Bogut (top 3 center when healthy), and Biedrins. Not to mention they have two tough as nails PF's in Carl Landry(one of the best six-man in the league) and David Lee.

Good balanced team, if healthy, they can make some serious noise in the west.

They look pretty decent, but they aren't making much noise until their guards figure out how to actually defend.

Good signings for them. Glad to see Landry get signed. The team is ok but Bougut and Curry are damaged goods.
