Corey Meggette coming to Oakland!!

[3VID3NC3]

^actually the Warriors could use a pure shooter, but Maggette aint it...dude is a scorer but not a shooter..just like alot of other Warriors(Harrington, Jackson, Ellis)

 

[MOESES SOULRIGHT THE 2nd]

Warriors biggest problem after J-rich leaving was not having anyone who would take it in to the hole consistantly and put up two points...
he's an explosive player in the hole and we'll glide by guys and use his body to get the dunk!!!

all W fans should be VERY HAPPY...

^J-Rich never had the ball handling skills or quickness to consistantly take it to the rack...he didn't draw a whole lot of fouls and when he did he could never knock down his free throws... Maggette is much better in that respect but he can't shoot the ball as well as J-Rich.

LOL @ people saying "who"

If you dont know who Maggette is, you shouldnt be watching basketball. period.

I hope they were just joking about the spelling of "meggette" in the thread title...

Seriously. Not like this guy is unknown, or a scrub.

He's just been playing for the bastard stepchilds of LA. lol.


Another thing I'm hella excited to see is B Wright, Bellinelli, and Randolph getting pt.

???? J-Rich took it to the rack A WHOLE MOTHAFUCIN LOT
only year he didn't was his last year with us...he played timid after the knee injury

Like I said, he didn't have the ball handling skills and quickness to consistantly do this against better defenders. With the kind of athleticism he has he should be getting to the line WAY more than he does. Maggette in his first 7 seasons in the nba played 444 games and shot 2,738 free throws. J-Rich in his first 7 seasons played 520 games and shot 2,078 free throws. Thats a huge difference and shows J-Rich clearly wasn't taking it to the rack enough and drawing fouls.

AND J-RICH PLAYED FOR THE WARRIORS AND DIDNT GET LOVE FROM THE REFS

He still only had 331 FT's in 82 games with Charlotte last season...thats pretty weak. Last season Maggette had 681 FT's in 70 games.

 

[D.I.R.B]

Everyone knows JRich had sub par handling skills, ie he couldnt really create his own shot. not as bad as sjax tho lol. but jrich was a boss bc he could hit the j and the 3

Not really...we still got a grip of folks here that are blinded by J-Rich homerism...otherwise I wouldn't be discussing him in this thread.

 

[BayBuryYa]

I'm excited for Maggette playing for GS. Dude shot the 6th most FT's in the league last year... that's desperately needed on a team with dudes like Jackson and Harrington who live to shoot the 3. With Maggette and Monta, Warriors have one of the best backcourts as far as getting to the rim. Should make life for Andris Biedrins very easy.

 

[D.I.R.B]

Jrich couldnt create his own shot. take it as you may, its the truth. he was still really good though

Are you tellin that to me?.. Cuz thats the point I've been arguing this whole thread and I agree 100%. Other folx here dont see this tho.

 

[T-Rip]

I over did how good J-Rich is but i still think he fit in with the Warriors perfectly and will never say otherwise. He plays a different position then Maggette so there not totally comparable. J-Rich is definitely a decent shooter and plays his position well. I never even thought about after that injury happening to him, him being so passive and now i realize that is probably the reason the W's traded him besides the money issue, they probably thought he was injury prone like BD.
