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.
Can you tell me where on God's green earth in my statement did I implicate Chris Webber as the sole reason why the Warriors didn't make the playoffs.


...Don't worry, I'll wait.

it was nelsons fault for running down our team. hes weird with substitutions and playing time. he should of used our bench much more. there were games when people were cold and playing like shit and he left em out there to lose. there were numerous times he never called time out to stop runs and to get our team focused. numerous times where our team jumped out to a huge lead then slacked off and lost it within the next quarter.

the brandan wright trade was a decent move because of the money issue.

mullin is gonna keep improving our team. hes made solid decisions the last couple years while coming into a fucked up ass situation. foyle was our 2nd highest payed player this year behind baron and he was on the magic. we have to pay foyle close to 10 mill next year too.

we are gonna sign ellis and biedrins obviously. maybe azauibuke, doubtful barnes, doubtful pietrus but maybe. doubtful croshere. maybe watson and maybe o'bryant.

i like jackson and harrington and both these guys are under contract unless we deal them. jackson had his best year but ran out of gas at the end. harrington keeps improving with whatever playing time and whatever role nelson has asked of him.

elton brand might opt out to be a free agent and jermaine oneal is definitely gonna opt out. either one of these guys makes us a serious contender but i like brand better because he's more solid.

baron ellis jackson brand biedrins is a pretty vicious lineup. along with buke, belinelli, wright, and harrington on the bench.

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!!!!!!!
i think the other one is sac cause of the bibby trade.

no its the bobcats, then bulls, then grizzlies, then warriors, then kings and sonics. all these teams have under 50mil total contracts for next year. bobcats have the most to spend with only 35mil towards next year.

other teams could be close depending on free agency and teams over the cap can trade and make deals anyways

im surprised to see the bobcats on that list with j-rich's contract. makes me wonder how much okafor and company are getting paid

J-RICH THIS YEAR IS PROBABLY A LITTLE BETTER THEN MONTA AND COULD HAVE HELPED US MORE BUT ELLIS WILL BE BETTER,

NELSON DID MAKE SOME BAD COACHING DESICIONS BUT WE WERE EXPECTED TO ONLY WIN ABOUT 45 GAMES THIS YEAR WE WON 48 BUT SHIT SUCKS THAT WE THE ODD MAN OUT,

MAYBE WE COULD TRADE THE 14TH PICK WE GONNA GET AND SOMEONE ELSE FOR A PEICE WE NEED, WE JUST NEED SOME MORE DEFENSE WARRIORS WERE LIKE 19-0 WHEN HOLDING OPPONENTS UNDER 100

j rich got 11 mill this year. foyle got nearly 9. next year both players go up a mill or so. except we paying for a guy thats not on our team.

wish i was gm of a team. never woulda drafted fagleavy or fag smith. wouldnt have thrown money away at foyle, dampier, etc and would have kept arenas

maybe someday.

ur right about philly. i didnt check every team. but they have 34.6 mill in contracts next year. just edged out the bobcats. memphis is at 44 mill.

but philly has iguodala to resign for a huge deal

todd fuller was another retarded ass pick. we had a lot of bad decisions.

well i remember that draft knowing kobe was gonna be good. and thinking jermaine oneal had a chance to be a star.

nash looked like a more solid pick at the time because of his college career. i knew kobe and jermaine would need time out of high school

my pick in the 96 draft would have depended on the number 1 pick in the draft before. i probably woulda chose rasheed wallace or jerry stackhouse... kg was an option too but im bein real and not saying things out of hindsight. i probably woulda took mcdyess over kg. but i liked the tar heel kids better.
