from ESPN Insider Rumors:
Maggette sticking point for Warriors?
5:36 PM ET Corey Maggette | Warriors Top Email
Last month, there was a lot of chatter about the Warriors looking to deal, and deal a lot. But beyond cutting Mikki Moore today, the Warriors have been quiet on the transaction front.
But there could be a reason for that. According to ESPN's Chad Ford, the Warriors are looking to dump Corey Maggette's albatross of a contract (he's owed around $10 million a year for the next three seasons after this one), in conjunction with someone like an Anthony Randolph, and that could make it hard to swing a deal.
Ford writes in his chat today that Randolph is not likely to be dealt "unless the Warriors can get a team to take Maggette's contract too."
We asked ESPN's Ric Bucher for his take.

Problems bigger than personnel
"Sources say they continue to shop Corey Maggette and are willing to throw in Anthony Randolph to shed Maggette's contract and land a scoring big man. But their issue isn't personnel; too many players simply don't believe in the team's leadership. Maybe that would change if they landed Chris Bosh, but that's what it would take."

HAHAHAHAHAHA Stop crying about the last foul....was it a foul....no!! but you know what, denver didnt get a foul on nen when he grabbed the rebound and was hacked and could have took the lead, and yo uknow what else???? G State didnt get carry by curry or the fukcing travel by ellis on the go ahead basket so in reality that should have ended the game in nuggets favor anyways!
Scary, the officiating was terrible last night but it was clearly in Denver's favor. Warriors seem to get fucked on the most ridiculous game deciding calls Ive ever seen all too often.
BTW there was no travel by Ellis on the go ahead basket and the Nuggets shouldn't have even had the ball at the end because Maggette got the rebound and immediatley called a timeout but wasn't given it.
Fuck the refs and fuck the nba...Ill never go to a game again. Atleast not while Cohan owns the W's.

oh trust me im not justifying the call at all, i even said at home to my son wow that was not a foul, but we both agreed the non calls beforehand offset it and the team that should have won did anyway. they call the hack on nene he makes 1 or 2 game over, they call the carry on curry denver gets ball game over, they call the travel, same thing, etc...
I said it before and will say it again it was NOT a foul, but same time refs didnt f over GS when it was .4 seconds from screwing over denver just as easily.
