    Wonder who they are going to waive. Assuming it's Jason Thompson or McAdoo. Thoughts?

    Varejao uses a 3G phone? Weak.

    Not really understanding the need for Varejao.

    Warriors are at their best when they play small, and Bogut can defend the Duncans / Kanters / Jordans of the world. I don't get it.

    Bogut is suffering from achilles soreness.. probably won't be 100% for a while.

    Ezeli is out at least a month due to exploratory surgery on his knee.

    Their last remaining center is Mo Speights... so yeah, they needed Varejao.

    Yes, exactly. His skills and character seem like they should fit right in with the Warriors culture as well.

    Guess they waived Jason Thompson instead of McAdoo. Someone had to go, but it's too bad. He had barely even been in town long and donated $5000 to the Oakland PD's Thanksgiving Turkey Drive.

    His good friend LeBron just traded him for Channing Frye. Also, Barbosa is a close friend and Brazilian national teammate + Luke Walton was a former teammate.

    Insurance for Ezeli and Bogut. Competition for Speights who is sucking right now.

    I think they are just trying to troll LeBron. Varejao is about to win a championship, possibly in Cleveland, against LeBron. If this were to happen I think Lebrons legacy takes another hit.

    LeBron sent Varejao on a covert mission to sabotage the Warriors from the inside.
