He hates Dunleavey and Foyle. Was it Mullin who gave these guys extensions?

Dave (Los Gatos, CA): Hi Chris...Do you think it is time for a change of scenery for Mike Dunleavy. It has gotten to the point where the fans boo everyone one of his missed shots. I think it would be difficult for anyone to play under those conditions. Do you think changing teams would help or is he just not very good?

Chris Sheridan: Yes, I do think it's time for Mike Jr. to move on, and it's quickly becoming appoarent that he is not one of Don Nelson's favorites. The Warriors were trying to move him over the summer and were involved in multi-team trade talks with the Clippers, Hawks, Nuggets and Pacers (Maggette was the other big piece), but they could never find a deal that satisfied everyone. Dunleavy is a base-year compensation guy, so he's difficult _ but not impossible _ to move. By the end of the season, I expect him to be elsewhere.

The Warriors, according to NBA front-office sources, are trying to buy out the contract of center Adonal Foyle, who played just six minutes in Golden State's first six games under Nelson and clearly has no role in Oakland given Nellie's preference for smaller lineups.

This is the first of four seasons left on Foyle's, uh, burdensome contract, with the 31-year-old due $37.4 million in that span ... but only $1 million of Foyle's $10.6 million salary in 2009-10 is guaranteed to make the actual value just under $28 million.
Personnel chief Chris Mullin has taken more shots for Foyle's original six-year, $51 million deal than any other move he's made -- and justifiably so -- but the Warriors insisted at the time that serious interest from Orlando and Milwaukee drove Foyle's price up.

To Think the Warriors could Have Gotten Tyson Chandler instead of Foyle, and Peja instead of Mike Dunleavy WOW! Well at least one of the Two, preferably Tyson, because they really need a big man, not a rock.

Finally! I will still never comprehend, until the day I die, why Foyle was given the contract he got. He's just plain terrible. Dumbleavey leaving would make me really happy as well. Nellie ain't puttin up with this bullshit. Fuckin Mullin.

Trade Dunleavy, and a second round pick for Bonzie Wells?
