OFFICIAL GSWARRIORS 2012 SEASON THREAD.

[luong1209]

Dland, I believe Bucks weren't gonna give up a big man without receiving one.
I thought about a little after the trade, and I don't think it's as bad as it seems...Especially not the way that Youtube guy makes it seem.

We've always said we wanted a competent center, well now we got one. Defense, boards, blocks, post game and etc.
We got rid of an undersized 2 guard, and the tempo last night was much better (who knows, maybe it was just 1 game and against the Kings).
Sure we gave up a little more than one would hope for, but it wasn't all that bad of a trade.

The risk factor - Bogut staying healthy...Read Andrew630's retweet where in a 7 year span Monta played 413 games and Bogut played 406.
The only thing I'm not sure what to do is Sjax...Do you play him, sit him, or buy out his contract? If you swallow that tough pill, you get 10mill (I think thats his contract) in cap space by the end of 2013.

Lastly, theyve got to start tanking...stop winning meaningless games.

 

[dland24]

Luong if you are right and the Bucks werent going to give up Bogut without a big man back, then we should have said "thank you for your time" and left the deal on the table.

Look, I know Bogut is good when healthy. But you have to be real about the trade we just made. In the NBA, there are three bargaining chips that are valued very highly: 1) premium scorers 2) top defensive big men 3) expiring contracts. We essentially gave the Bucks all three of these to take on an injury prone big man, a disgruntled me first player who already forced his way out of town and the chance to keep our draft pick. Those three pieces we traded are all very valuable in the NBA these days. I just dont buy the idea that this was the best we could have done, nor the idea that this is a recipe for success.

Plus I would have rather traded Curry. Curry and his small deal would have been the only way to shed Andris' contract.

^ best explanation i've seen. well said dland24.

 

[lazyj10]

Lacob's smugness of this trade is outright disgusting.

 

[luong1209]

Grimey how players found out while watching TV...That's what displeased me the most.

[h3]Warriors Leaning Toward Keeping Stephen Jackson Through Deadline[/h3]
Mar 14, 2012 2:38 PM EDT

The Warriors are leaning toward keeping Stephen Jackson through Thursday's deadline, according to sources.

Golden State acquired Jackson in a trade for Andrew Bogut on Tuesday and are listening to offers.

The Warriors could consider buying out Jackson, but that would leave the Warriors with just 10 active players.

Mark Jackson also indicated that he welcomes the opportunity to coach Stephen Jackson.

Orlando is believed to be interested in Jackson.

The Warriors sell out a lot even though they are awful and make terrible decisions....Its damn near ponzi scheme like how the organization is playing its fan base.

Doesn't make sense? Neither does the Warriors management. I used Hitler as an analogy. You know there's something wrong, when getting Kwame Brown is actually a decent move. Just because I have Jordan as my avatar that implies that I frequent the JB forum? I haven't bought a pair of J's in 5 years.

Warrior fans need to take an IQ test.

 

[jumpmanfromdabay]

Hitler though?

 

[wearinthefourfive]

A lot of you guys are forgetting the best part of this trade. Different trade, completely different circumstances, but I'll let Stephen A explain it.

 

[thapointguy]

That means management is mopping up their mistake signing of Kwame.

 

[downyboy]

I really hate seeing Monroe's stat lines. Smh.

 

[luong1209]

Klay 

 

[andrew630]

Klay is a great shooter. I don't think he's a superstar of the Brandon Roy type.

 

[endemic415]

Jim Barnett would make a great coach

 

[luong1209]

Why wasn't the "Foul to give" used?!


...

!

 

[bigbrandon]

Man I can't believe after yesterday the warriors kept it competitive with Boston. Kg got us though.

Good try Nate. Wish monta was shooting that.

 

[jumpmanfromdabay]

Best fans in the league

 

[fullmetal]

I know its not in our best interest to keep winning but a win tonight woulda been nice

 

[lavious]

Klay tonight... 26 pts on 16 shots, 3-7 on 3's. Not bad.
