It has been known that the Golden State Warriors, reacting to the surprise opt-out of point guard Baron Davis and the even bigger surprise signing by the Los Angeles Clippers, have tried to replace him with another point guard, Washington Wizards free agent Gilbert Arenas. But, despite Arenas' frequently professed love for the Bay Area, multiple sources say it's likely that Arenas will head back to the Wizards with a near-max contract in hand.
[table][tr][td] [/td] [/tr][/table]But here's what hasn't been known: Two sources report that the Warriors, flush with cap space now that they're not responsible for Davis' $17.8 million option, reached out with an offer to Clippers free-agent big man Elton Brand in an attempt to limit any potential PR damage from the loss of Davis. "Baron is very popular," one of the sources says, "and if they can't replace him with Gilbert, Elton is the next-best option."
On one hand, the loss of Davis creates a vast amount of cap space for Golden State and more flexibility to build on its young roster. On the other hand, cap space does not sell tickets, and the Warriors are lacking a point guard. Brand, one of the NBA's most personable players, would mitigate the loss of Davis. Further, coach Don Nelson might not be eager to preside over a rebuilding project in what is likely his final year as the team's coach, so the Warriors would need to add veteran help.
Golden State would be a long shot to sign Brand, who has said he wants to remain a Clipper. One of Brand's goals in opting out of the final year of his contract -- besides the obvious goal of longer-term financial security -- was to help force the improvement of the Clippers' roster. With Davis on board, the Clippers have accomplished that, and Brand could sign a new contract with the Clippers quickly.

Where does GS go from here if they can't sign brand? We know they will keep monta but IMO monta and jackson aren't enough to keep that team going.

I won't blame him if he goes to either the Celtics or the Spurs, but he'd be passing up a starting spot and a chance to be a real option on an up and coming team.
I expect (and hope) the Warriors pursue Andre Iguodala and Josh Smith hard, even if it all may be in vain. It does not hurt to at least try, eventhough ATL and Philly with likely match any deal for them. Mullin definitely has to do something before the season starts...something to make people forgetabout Baron a little bit.Originally Posted by tupac003

Also, the Warriors are shopping Al Harrington around the league.
Al is like Warriors fans on NT's inside joke.
i say we just try and get both Iggy and Smith and resign Monta and Biedrins
now this is the time the warriors should try to go after iggy. as i said earlier, it may be in vain, but do the sixers have the space for two hugecontracts? i know they have a lot of cap room..but i dunno.Originally Posted by JapanAir21
Josh Smith is going to meet with the Sixers to discuss a deal, but don't forget that the Hawks have the ability to match an offer.
that would be the best possible things that could happen to the Warriors. Mullin would semi-redeem this grand #%$+ up he did with Baron. I doubtArenas goes to the Warriors thoughOriginally Posted by NobleKane
I have a feeling Arenas will be a warrior when its all said and done...
"Clippers r possible, GS is where i wanna b."
As soon as he sent that text, he probably called his agent and said cool Ill take 65 mill
Screw the Warriors,
Maggette on the Spurs or Celtics
The Celtics really believe they can split the MLE between Posey and Maggette.
Lowballin' like a *substitute*
