Snow's retirement party and a #1 from Cleveland

"Book IT"

So, Jackson, Harrington, Perovic and Belinelli for Rasheed and a 1st?

That would certainly clear up some playing time, I think I like it.

Jack to Cleveland for Snow and the first.

Amundsen is not a Small forward...............I call bunk!

Please keep the Rasheed talk below a minimum. That bridge should never be crossed. In fact that bridge should just be bombed.

Amundson is a 3.85/5*

Anyway, positionality is a farce for Nelson so I wouldn't sweat it too much. Amundson gives the team more useful work than Kosta. Probably more than Busty, too. And he'll outrebound/block Al's sorry a$$ in his sleep.

Where is Stephen Jackson? Al is calling Atlanta reporters hoping the trade is official but Jackson is still lost somewhere in a Texas strip club praying he doesn't have to use his gun this time. This time. This time. Or this time. Or that other time.

Pass the Vodka bottle, please.

BREAKING NEWS:

Kosta definitely leaving the Warriors this Summer.

Details?

The problem with your posts, Rowell, is that whether or not you are truly an insider, it is impossible to differentiate between your opinion, commentary, or "official" reporting. WIthout being able to make that distinction, you just get lost in the oversaturated cacaphony of Warrior-related noise on the internet and in particular, realgm.

Rowell's taking an educated guess here in an attempt to wrestle back some of the attention he's lost to K...It's a good safe gamble..Very logical that Kosta will want a buyout...I'm sure being a ex-NBA player, Kosta can command more $$$ in Europe ...

Mean people suck!!!

Sid, you and Khoee sure have a lot invested in attention and directing traffic...

Chris Cohan · Post #13 » by **Chris Cohan** » Wed Jul 30, 2008 10:49 pm

Kosta will not be traded. He will play in Europe.

ROWELL, what is with the Sept. 22nd retirement date? Is that when camp starts?

turk3d · Post #15 » by **turk3d** » Wed Jul 30, 2008 11:56 pm

That's when he officially gets signed on as a Warriors PR man in charge of Chris Mullin damage control and hence is forced to retire from Realgm. I wonder how much they're paying him. :jealous:

Chris Cohan · Post #16 » by **Chris Cohan** » Thu Jul 31, 2008 12:03 am

More updates:
Josh Smith will not be a Warrior.

I like Amundsen alot and had my eye on him his draft year. He reminds me of the Birdman without the Heroin addiction. If Kosta is gone (praying hands emoticon), then Amundsen fits perfectly as a running, rebounding, shot blocking, energy big, who's not super big.

Chris Cohan · Post #18 » by **Chris Cohan** » Thu Jul 31, 2008 12:11 am

I'd love to see Amundson lead the league in personal fouls this season because it would mean he was playing the minutes to raise all kinds of hell for our opponents (say, 10 MPG). Amundson spells Maggette and Randolph after they get the starters in foul trouble and Amundson abuses whoever isn't in foul trouble. 6 useful fouls, instead of 6 fouls stuck in Bakersfield.

I doubt he goes the bakersfield route. I think that's reserved for Morrow and Hendrix. Amundsen has been around a few years now, so Bakersfield doesn't do much for him.

Chris Cohan · Post #20 » by **Chris Cohan** » Thu Jul 31, 2008 12:20 am

The Bakersfield reference was to O'Bryant/Perovic.
Amundson and Morrow won't be in Bakersfield this year.

Randolph, Hendrix, maybe.
