NEWS - POSTED BY: RASHEED MALEK
Are the Warriors finally getting rid of their horrid uniforms in favor of some fresh threads? That’s the word from 1011 Broadway as the Warriors are scheduled to unveil a new logo and new uniforms on draft night according to multiple sources.
Sources who have seen the artist rendering of the possible new logo describe it as an updated version of the team logo from the Run TMC era, the new logo will be a circular logo with a silhouette of the new Bay Bridge Tower and the words “Golden State

I made two because you didn't know what kind of border you wanted so you just stuck with the blue border since that's what I've been using for Warriors avys, but since this wasn't a Warriors avy, I used the color of the girl's shirt and used that as the color for the border and font. Pick which one you prefer. I thought I'd just give you some choices.
BTW, the chick's hot!

[h1]Warriors could leave Raiders only Oakland team[/h1]
Chip Johnson

With the sale of the Golden State Warriors now officially on thetable, East Bay residents stand to lose two of their three professionalsports teams, leaving the Oakland Raiders as the most firmly rootedteam at the city-and-county-owned sports complex.
Now that's a scary thought.
Less than a week after the NBA team owner Chris Cohan announced hisintention to sell, at least one potential buyer has expressed interestin seeing the club move from Oracle Arena to San Francisco, just southof AT&T Park, according to Chronicle colleague C.W. Nevius in hisThursday column.
The argument in favor of such a move includes a study that projecteda 30 percent higher franchise value should the team move to SanFrancisco. Corporate sponsorship opportunities, which have been meagerin Oakland, would also be greater.
Let's face it, Oakland's persona works for the Raiders more than itdoes for the other two teams. At a Raiders football game, you expect tobe jostled at some point by one or more of the team's proud but rowdyfans. You know how Oakland police catch troublemakers at Raiders games?They wear the jerseys of the visiting team - because that's about allit takes.
From a marketing standpoint, San Francisco has a reputation forcivility that Oakland does not share. Hey, I live in Oakland. I own ahome here, but I have to be honest.
The choice of attending a ballgame in San Francisco, where fanscould walk to a neighborhood sports bar or tony restaurant, or a gamein Oakland, where a car or BART ride is required to get you to a moreamenable part of the city, is a no-brainer. Geographically, a downtownSan Francisco basketball arena would be just as close as the coliseumfor many Oakland residents.
But if the team did move, Alameda County Board Supervisor ScottHaggerty said, the new owner would face a contractual poison pill - theremainder of a $140 million upgrade paid for by a municipal bondapproved as part of the Oakland Raiders' return to the city.
"If they leave prior to 2027, they have to close the debt service onthe $140 million upgrade," Haggerty said. "Whoever buys the team maynot know about that debt service."
In addition, the estimated cost of buying out the Warriors' lease in Oakland through 2027 is around $60 million.
As a financial resource, the Warriors are about a breakevenoperation, said Deena McClain, interim executive director of theOakland-Alameda County Coliseum Authority and its chief legal counsel.Revenues from Warriors games brought in about $12.7 million last yearwhile operational expenses cost about $15.5 million, she said.
If the Warriors were to jump ship, the team would join the Oakland Athletics as the latest sports franchise to bail on Oakland.
Never mind Oakland City Hall's last-stand attempt to cobble togetherthree possible sites late last year, A's owner Lew Wolff has set hissights on leaving town.
Oakland City Councilman Larry Reid, who represents East Oakland andserves as a commissioner on the Oakland-Alameda County ColiseumAuthority, is adamant about retaining the basketball team. He isequally convinced that unless redevelopment efforts are undertaken nearthe sports complex to build hotels with convention facilities, officeand retail space and housing, the city could well lose those teams.
Reid regularly drums up interest in the area and leads developertours through two city-owned properties near the sports complex. Hehosted former state Treasurer Phil Angelides last week. Angelides is apartner with former NBA star Earvin "Magic" Johnson in the developmentfirm of King and Johnson.
"It's going to take two or three developers working together to pulloff this vision, and the city needs to step up its game and findsomeone interested in partnering with the Raiders," Reid said. "If wedon't do something, and continue to drag our feet, we may lose allthree sports franchises," he said.
I guess turnabout is fair play, after all. San Francisco certainlyisn't the only city or county ignoring boundaries. Santa Clara Countyofficials are hoping a new stadium proposal will lure the 49ers south,and San Jose has not given up on the Athletics.
Finally, if Coliseum officials have their way, Oakland will soonhave a football-only stadium that is home to the Raiders and itscrossbay rivals, the San Francisco 49ers.

[h1]Writing on Wall for Warriors' Morrow[/h1]

Retaining Anthony Morrow appears to be a long shot for the Warriors.

I like Reggie Williams as much as the next guy. Probably more than the next guy, actually. He might be a legitimate find.
I also like the fact the Warriors locked him up for next season. But let’s be honest, it more than likely means Anthony Morrow is done.
Look, unless they can move Corey Maggette and/or Kelenna Azubuike there’s really no reason for the Warriors to re-sign Morrow. And there’s really no reason for Morrow to re-sign here, either.
There’sno way the Warriors, in their right mind, can keep Maggette, Azubuikeand Williams -- and then re-sign Morrow this summer. Particularly whenit will probably be another team offering Morrow a contract.
Ifthe Warriors have something up their sleeve with Maggette -- or ifAzubuike suddenly decides not to exercise his player option -- all betsare off. But until that happens, Morrow isn’t part of your future plans.

Don Nelson got a big win on Sunday-- well, big for him anyway -- against the Clippers, He now needs threewins in the Warriors’ final nine games to surpass Lenny Wilkens on theall-time wins list.
Whether it happens or not will likely bedecided during a stretch of four consecutive road games, starting nextSunday: at Toronto, at Washington, at Minnesota, at the L.A. Clippers.
TheRaptors are fading in a big way … the Warriors are better than theWizards and Timberwolves … and the Warriors just handled the Clipperslast night. Still, the Warriors are 5-30 away from Oracle Arena thisyear so you can’t just say they’ll win two or three of those.
The most critical game remaining, however, could be this Friday’s against the Knicks at Oracle Arena. For Nelson, it’s a must-win.
