monte at the point worries me.

changing (sort of) the subject: anyone get out to the sf pro-am summer league games? you want to see some hungry guys playing no defense and scoring in the 100s, it can’t be beat. admission is free, too.

Does anyone know that Maggette is more injury prone than Baron?

2. I think Maggette is a good sign – he’s going to flourish in the uptempo style the W’s play and I think with Monte and Jax on the court, along with Maggette, they form a difficult 3 some to deal with.

3. I have yet to officially read we signed Turiaf – so i’ll hold off on my comments.

Shaq has 1 year left – you don’t build a team worrying about him.

Duncan – and he’s my boy – a Deacon grad – is in the waning portion of his career – you don’t build a team to defend 1 guy and the W’s give him fits in match up’s on the other end

The W’s will continue to struggle on D until their youth get minutes and experience. I believe that Wright is 1 season away from being a legit player in the league – if you tell me you have:

Monte / Jax / Maggette / Write and Andre – I think that team is a playoff team.

Obviously they need to upgrade the backup PG position – I wouldn’t be surprised to see that happen shortly.

Baron did not spit on the Bay Area and yes I blame management. Baron wanted a new deal 5/$65M. Warriors said no, which I can’t blame.

Ok, we now have 16 MIL in cap space to sign anyone.

We signed Maggette for 9 MIL

and Turiaf for 4 MIL. This is where I blame management.

Keep the cap space and wait till we get someone who can lead this team. Let the younger players play and wait till AH’s contract is gone. Both the above players can’t lead the team. We are now stuck with this team for the next 5 years. You think this is a good thing?

Did I miss anything?

Do you think any of these guys can guard the Duncan’s, Amare’s, Shaq’s, Gasol of the West? If not, we are stuck again with no cap to get better players.

As for Hinirich please say no. The guy makes over 10 Million a year.

look at the starting 5

Monte

Jax

Maggette

AH

AB

That looks like a winning team?

Who’s the backup PG? Who’t eh backup C?

Randolph, Bellinelli, Wright will be good… but not now.

Good work Mullin! Remember him giving big contracts to Fisher, Murphy, Dunleavy and my favorite FOYLE!! Foyle cap # is still on our salary for this year.

Turiaf is all D – rebound and outlet – doesn’t look for his shot or need to look for his shot – so that’s a nice pickup. Wright is going to be a beast in this league — just needs to grow – he’s only a college jr so let’s give him time. Maggette is not THE ANSWER – but given we lost a scorer and dynamic offensive player in Baron, I love the pick up and I think the squad has a bright future.

From what I heard this morning, the Warriors signed Turiaf from the Lakers for $4 million a year. Add in Maggette’s 9 million a year and we just blew our cap space.

No PG, NO PF and No more playoffs for the next 10 years. Great job Mullin and Cohan.

Funny how people think Maggette was the answer. Josh Smith and Baron would have made an awesome team with all the young players.
