Morey needs to pull the trigger on the Josh Smith move. Warriors played their card, now we need to play ours. If anything we'll still be better with Smith & we have room to explore trade options with other players (i.e. Horford, Rondo)
30/30 teams would take Iggy over Jarrett Jack. Warriors have improved with or without Dwight. Is it even debatable?

Peter Vecsey @PeterVecsey1 2 minutes ago Warriors remain determined 2 sign EHoward, either in sign-n-trade or outright. Can clear enough $ by trading Bogut 4 No. 1, I'm informed Read more: http://hoopshype.com/twitter/media.html#ixzz2YD2yKqsW
Utah is just stupid. It's the only way they can entice players to come over. Taking on ridiculous contracts.
If Dwight wants to play with Curry so be it. If he wanted to play with Harden (whose better BTW) he would have been here by now. He likes the idea of playing with a guy who turns his ankles once a month I guess.
The upshot: If Dwight Howard chooses Golden State as his free-agent destination and the Lakers are amenable to a sign-and-trade arrangement, the Warriors are willing and able to engage, league sources told CBSSports.com. The centerpiece of any Howard sign-and-trade with the Lakers would be center Andrew Bogut and his $14 million expiring contract, plus one of Golden State's young studs -- Harrison Barnes or Klay Thompson, league sources said. However, there has been no indication from Howard's camp -- holed up in Aspen, Colo., to make his free-agent decision -- that he's made a decision. Nor has there been any indication from the Lakers that if Howard elects to leave, they'll be willing to facilitate his departure. If the Warriors fall short in their pursuit of Howard -- and a person briefed on the matter told CBSSports.com on Friday that Golden State is of the belief that the All-Star center is bound for Houston -- they at least know they've added an elite defender in Iguodala to a team that advanced to the Western Conference semifinals last season. Howard is considering the Lakers, Rockets, Mavericks, Warriors and Hawks. Golden State is the only team among them that would have to pull off a sign-and-trade to fit him under the cap
There is no way he's considering taking less money. Not that much anyway. I mean, maybe to join Lebron? But Steph and Iggy? Doubtful.
Yep. have to dump both Lee and Bogut for Dwight and Iggy together. Lee's contract is untradable now that they've sent all their picks to Utah.
te difference is the Lakers don't have anything to do with it if they just let Dwfht walk an make a decision for himself. AND they don't have to deal with a GSW WCF giant every year. a) they want their hands clean of creating a multiple WCF champ b) or they want a high level star or prospect, none of which GSW have to justify creating a WCF beast that you still have to beat every year that YOU helped Ben if you reload very well next year if Dwight has to walk they don't need to worry about getting attention on helping a team nor do they need to play them (in this case GSW) every year in the WCF.
Question is, does Dwight want to go to that team without those two. GSW really forced there own hand. There in trouble.
LMAO Lebron & DWade WILL NEVER play in HOU!!!! you kidding me? This was their chance to land and compose a solid contender. If Dwight chooses GS then HOU better build thru draft. Only way they will get a Star
