more negatives than positives if we kept JRich......#1. Monta's growth this year. No way he could have improved as much as he did this year by sharing time with JRich. #2. JRich's contract $$$$$$, if he was still here, we would have no chance of signing Ellis and Beans this offseason. #3. Made the playoffs last year, AND got a lottery pick in Brandan Wright. No one knows how good he is gonna be, but I'm willing to take that chance cuz he's long.
Let's see who's here next year !!! It dosen't look like Barnes, Croshere, CJ, maybe Buke will be back. Hopefully Petrius can resign for not a huge contract.....Also if they can package Al for something, i'd like that......maybe like a Jjason Maxiell type player would help.

I agree totally.

Something people have quickly forgotten though...Chris Webber's bitch ass, short-lived, non-existant vertical leap, stint this season. He should be fined for every minute he played, since he pretty much slowed us down to a middle-school B-team pace every time he stepped on the floor.

fuck man, i wanted CWebb to do good, but at 35 years old, with only 4 weeks of "trying" to get in basketball shape, a FUCKED UP knee, and not touching a ball in 8months wasen't gonna happen !!! when he was with the Pistons he was a 12ppg and 7 rpg, and that was with a full season........that would of helped us out ALOT !!!
Baron and Jacko were great this year, but just ran out of gas the last 15 or so games. good season fellas !!! but they did it to themselves losing to Minn, Chicago, Atlanta.....

baron just got too tired. he DID play his healthiest season in a while. if baron got injured we would been eliminated a while ago. the west is just too deep this year.

and theres no doubt j rich woulda helped us THIS year but it was a trade that had to be done.

Who cares? Dude came back for the league minimum, no trades, played a couple weeks, couldn't hang, and moved on. Not the reason they didn't make the playoffs.

first thing we need to do is extend baron for 3 years at 15 a pop and and cancel that 17 mill he is owed if he doesnt option out. there is only 2 teams with cap room for next year and 1 is the grizzlies. the other i forget but baron will be a warrior for sure.

we are only 2 nice moves away form being a top 5 team in the west. believe!!!!!!!

Mullins fault for that dumb ass trade. Still.
Yep!!! And for those that think it was a good trade, heres why it wasnt!! It was what they got for him!! Wright contributed nuthin this year! I wouldve atleast trade Rich for a big man that wouldve helped this year, then maybe yall wouldve made the playoffs!! Got Em!!

You're wrong. No trade = No Monta/Biedrins/Wright.

U can think what u want, but that trade was weak! Wright for JRich!! Wright aint shit so if and until he does shit then its a wack trade!! I understand about Monta's development etc.. but I am just talkin about value in a trade! I wouldnt have minded the trade if yall wouldve gotten a better player who wouldve helped yall last year! if u cant see that then whatever!! Got Em!!

we will reap the rewards from this trade for years too come so i aint trippin..baron and jax were worn out and webber slowed us down . imagine if would could have got 1-2 wins if web never played that would be the difference. gotta address our lack of real big threat and "d" in the off season. i got faith in mullen to do something this off season.
