A small forward that can defend? What the hell is this team doing!!!!

 

[eagle 0n]

Weren't we trying to get Wright a few yrs ago for Harrington?

I always wondered why dude hasn't panned out. He's only 24 so there's still room for him to develop.

dead on.

I like this Wright signing, but only depends on the numbers.

And, i'm not sure about resigning Morrow. For a guy who can only shoot, ehh, although that is a pretty cheap contract. Morrow is a hard worker, so i see his handles, d, and shooting improving, but he has to be able to learn how to shoot off the dribble, which i dont see happening anytime soon.

[sriracha hot sauce]

Unless I see it on RealGM, I don't believe much other rumor sites out there.

I would trade Monta for Mayo in a heartbeat. I love Monta, but I think Mayo is a better team player.

 

[franchise 55]

3 years/11 mill for Wright.

Oh God.

You're right.

You don't deserve a player who's multifaceted who can defend and is very crafty around the basket.

[paul is on tilt]

3yrs/$11mil is not bad at all. I hope we can get this done.

 

[acidicality]

That's not bad at all. Good job by Riley if he gets that done.

 

[what up]

Wright at 3yr/$11 > Wes Matthews at 5yr/$34

Mark Mastrov, founder of 24-Hour Fitness, heads one of the final two bidding groups in the running to buy the Warriors, a source told Bay Area News Group.

The source confirmed Mastrov's bid to buy the Warriors exceeded $350 million.

Bay Area News Group learned Friday, through a source with knowledge of the negotiations, that two finalist groups were outbid and had dropped out of the process.

The field was down to four finalists: a group headed by Mastrov, another led by Oracle billionaire Larry Ellison; a group headed by Texas-based Wall Street financier David Bonderman; and one that includes Mandalay Entertainment chairman Peter Guber. All four finalists submitted purchase of sale agreements that included binding offers.

Warriors owner Chris Cohan, who hired Galatioto Sports Partners to sell the franchise, moved forward with the two highest bidders. The next step in the process is to refine each purchase of sale agreement, which includes all the parameters and technicalities of such a transaction. The tweaking could result in a revised offer from the remaining two groups.

The hope, according to a source, is that the winning bidder can be identified by August, according to a source.

[boys noize]

I would love to see Wright signed. 3 years/$11mil is looking great. We're about to see a Warriors team that can rebound and maybe even play a little defense.

 

[tommykairaa]

i really like the thread title just putting that out there lol

wishing ex warriors good luck thats whats up

hope d lee plays well with ya

 

[japanair21]

No one watched the Warriors game?

It wasn't really worth noting.

Caught the 4th, didn't see anything spectacular.

 

[acidicality]

All we have is Wright and Williams playing, Wright's been meh from the parts that I watched.

On the other hand, Jeremy Lin on the Mavs' summer league roster

. He'll more than likely have to take the overseas or D-League route, but if he takes the D-League route, he'll find his way onto the Warriors in no time.

 

[japanair21]

Lin really has been pretty damn good. He's really aggressive out there, and has a knack to get the loose balls. His effort on defense is very appreciated too.

Unfortunately, I know he has no chance of making our roster. Dominique Jones is too damn good at getting to the rim/free throw line that he's pretty much a lock for a roster spot.

Lin is unfortunate in that he chose to play for a team where he'd be the odd-man out, having no chance to show what he can do, no matter what, he won't outplay Rodrigue and DoJo because the Mavs would rather want to see how those two play together than let Lin try and make an impression.



Jordan Hill is quite possibly the sorriest player in the history of the NBA. He's straight Aaron Gray status, I can't believe I defended this bum dude. He's sloppy on defense, can't catch the ball, can't use his size to put the ball in the basket, he's BASURA.

 

[acidicality]

Jordan Hill is horrible.
Beaubois is playing a lot better today though.

And yeah, I don't think Lin's gonna be good enough to get on a roster...he'll have to work his way up.

If he continues as he has for his basketball career thus far, he'll crack a roster eventually.

He's not raw, very polished, doesn't mind contact, just a real good, physical player.


If he puts on 10-15 lbs of muscle, he'll be fine.

Scrappy young player.

Taylor has looked damn good though, him and Dominique Jones getting to the rim AT WILL.

 

[TheGodFresco]

Like the wright signing

 

[pistol maravich]

Not bad getting Dorell for that price.

About David Lee signing, well, he'll play well for the W's and get some much needed rebs. but the W's gave up a bit much to get him and I'm not even going to comment on how much they're going to pay him. Ehh get that money Mr. Lee...


LAS VEGAS — Restricted free agent Anthony Morrow is expected to sign an offer sheet of three years and $12 million from New Jersey on Monday, giving the Warriors seven days to match. Golden State’s front office hasn’t decided whether to match, according to league sources.

The sources stressed that the Warriors haven’t ruled out matching the offer sheet.

The team wants to study how the contract is structured before making a decision. Morrow, one of the league’s deadliest 3-point shooters, averaged 13.0 points last season, starting 37 of 69 games.

The 24-year-old former undrafted free agent could be caught in a numbers game behind starting guards Stephen Curry and Monta Ellis. At 6-foot-5, Morrow can also log some time at small forward. The Warriors are thin at that position, even with the recent addition of Dorell Wright.

Money is also going to play a large role in keeping Morrow. In addition to the $11 million committed to Wright over three years, Golden State signed new power forward David Lee to an $80 million deal over six years.

The decision facing Golden State general manager Larry Riley is whether Morrow is worth $12 million or if there’s a more cost-friendly alternative.

 

[paul is on tilt]

Random question here, but where was Baron living in SF when he was with the Warriors? Lazy, was it you that said he lived by where you work at?
