Draftexpress.com/twitter according to NBA source, everyone could be had except Curry. Go get Randolph!
funny who would you want on golden state though besides curry? maybe randolph but i am getting less and less enamored with him i know he had some injuries but his style of play is suited for GS Ball and yet Nellie sat him a lot Ellis has a terrible contract and same with Biedrins Morrow is an amazing shooter but does little else I would be interested in their #6 pick but i doubt that is for sale
I'd take CJ Watson if we ever got rid of 1 of our pg's. He's 6"2 which is good height for a PG that can much up with other pgs and is reliable on offense.
Fire Sale means they are willing to dump young talent with Biedrins' and Ellis' nasty contracts. You could probably nab both Randolph and Morrow if you were to take on Biedrin's nasty deal.
Supposedly they are trying to make the team more buyer friendly for a new owner. We could probably pry Randolph and Turiaf for Jeffries expiring contract and a NY 2012 pick. Yao/Turiaf/Hayes Scola/Randolph/Hill/Andersen Ariza/Battier Martin/Budinger/Taylor Brooks/Lowry + #14 That roster would be ridiculously deep. We could probably then package 2-3 of our players to upgrade one of our starting positions and fill the rest of the roster with 2nd round purchases and MLE splits.
I would definately do that. Andersen + Jeffries for Biedrins + Randolph + Morrow. Brooks / Lowry Martin / Morrow Battier / Ariza / Budinger Scola / Randolph / Hayes Yao / Biedrins / Hill Thats crazy depth, while preserving a ton of your assets.
I wouldn't bite on anything GoldenState has. I have a feeling there is better talent out there and more teams willing sell to open up cap space. Minnesota has a lot I would want as does Memphis and they have r****ded GM's. I would wait and see what else becomes available, we can do better.
Biedriens is 9 mil per for 5 years. I'll pass. Give me Turiaf instead, as he is a great backup bigman who is one of the tougher guys and is a shot blocker. Could we use Ladry TE for a deal like this?
Biedrins' deal isn't that bad, did you see the damage he did during the their playoff run? Biedrins is legitimately one of the top defenders in the league today and IMHO isn't that overpaid considering he's still young and could still improve he went under a good coach. If this rumor is indeed true, I hope DM bites on a Biedrins/Randolph salary dump. At the very least we can use Randolph to trade for the 3rd/4rth pick.
false biedrins is terrible my roommate is a GS fan and i have seen many GS games he is not that good of a defender, numbers inflated because he was the only tall guy on the team. He hasnt improved any fundamentals at all and very poor bball iq. at that price tag he is as bad of a contract there is in the NBA...from the warriors board my roommate said that they would just gladly give up biedrins even if it meant not getting anything back just to get outo fhis contract
Biedrins may not be such a bad deal. He has a contract for $9M per season that runs through 2012-13 (three years) with a $9M season option for 2013-14. He is an athletic shot blocker and a solid rebounder. His shooting is weak, but he is a good garbage scorer. Since we need an experienced backup center (even though Biedrins is only 24), I'd take him, especially if we get an asset like Anthony Morrow -- far superior to J. Taylor -- and/or their best second rounder next year. We could offer them the expirings of Shane Battier, J.T. and Andersen.
