Although the Golden State Warriors sent two second-round picks to the New Jersey Nets in order to delay giving up a first-rounder to New Jersey, that doesn't mean Stephen Jackson is leaving the Bay Area anytime soon.

The Warriors were able to push back the delivery of a previously traded, lottery-protected first-round pick one year to 2012, NBA sources told Yahoo! Sports. The pick had been sent to the Nets in July 2008 in exchange for guard Marcus Williams, who signed with the Memphis Grizzlies as a free agent this offseason.

For agreeing to delay receiving the first-rounder from Golden State, the Nets will acquire two future second-round picks from the Warriors. The first-round pick originally was lottery protected in 2011. It now has lesser protection for 2012, though sources did not reveal in detail the exact level of protection.

The move allows the Warriors more time and flexibility to package their 2011 first-round pick in a deal, if they so choose. A source, however, said Golden State currently does not have any potential trades on the horizon - including anything involving disgruntled forward Jackson.

Jackson was fined $25,000 by the NBA last week for telling Dime Magazine in August that he wanted to be traded from the Warriors. The Warriors have stated that they expect Jackson to be a part of the team and arrive at training camp.

While a source said the Warriors are open to dealing Jackson, his contract - with four years and $35 million remaining - makes moving him difficult.

Jackson averaged a team-best 20.7 points, 6.5 assists and 5.1 rebounds for Golden State last season.

2nd round picks are meaningless to the franchise anyway. How many have we actually kept who were drafted in the last 4 seasons?
 
3rd Annual NT Warriors Fantasy Basketball League


I'm looking for active participants. I'm trying to make this league reallycompetitive this year. Below are the details about the league. Yeah, the draft date is subject to change (trying to figure out when would be the best time foreveryone). Hit me up if you got questions.

League ID: 138396

I'm definitely active as I'm in the office before most of you are awake during bball season.

I'll double-check the calender at home to see if the draft works for me.
 
Paul, if anyone alerts you that they won't be active...or anything, cut them lose now/before Oct's draft. 14 team league is DEEP. 12 max is probably abit safer.

Imagine an injury plagued team (ie - my NT baseball team) trying to pick up some reserves....eeek.
 
I know 12 teams is pretty much the standard and 14's pushing it, but last year that we needed two leagues because there was so much interest. That'swhy I went with 14 teams.

The injury/reserves situation are always a concern. I'm trying to balance out getting people in that want to/are going to participate for the long haul andnot dilute the talent pool too much. That's why I didn't want to go with 16 teams because then, it would just be garbage in the FA. At least with 14teams, there might be a better chance of picking up a better FA.

And I'm feeling good about the people in the league. They have shown in the past from other leagues that they're active GMs.
 
I've done a 14 team league before, and it was definitely different than a 12 team league. But it wasn't as bad as the NT league where we hadthe max of 20 teams when we were trying to win NT shirts. Now that was bad.
