oh oh


Theres no way we could do a 3 team even if LBJ comes? Anthony Randolph has sick potential


Randolph is still on is Rookie Deal, so it's not that hard to get him at all. But once Lebron signs it wouldn't be for Lee, and GSW might not want to deal Randolph to us after that.

If we do the Curry for Dampier Deal, then wave Dampier...we'd have more $$$ to do the Trade, and maybe sign a Mike Miller type.

Doubt they are both so in the dark on this.

I'd prefer making a move for Randolph and gamble on Chandler becoming a better playmaker. Team needs say Randolph comes first, IMO. Do I make sense?

If we cut Curry, don't we save 1 million and change? And salaries in a S&T don't have to match up? Please tell me if I'm incorrect here cuz I could be. What is Anthony Randolph's salary for this season?

Dantoni and Walsh knows what's up. Why would they say they knew where he was going? No point to that.

If they were really that much in the dark they would still be exploring their other options. He is just playing dumb.

Naah, it's a Twitter over-capacity error. The same thing happened yesterday to Hahn's Twitter.

The warriors would need to have the cap space. They are at 55 million. AR is at 1.9 mil.

Lee would be BYC so 50% of the contract counts on trade value. 14 mil 1st year would be 7 mil trade value. So A team would need to have 7 mil in cap space. I think at 1.9 we can fit that and 2 max contracts IF the warriors had cap space. And right now they dont.

Wasn't there a clause where we could waive fatso, and gain but a couple mil dollars for his lack of movement (playing time)? Man, I can't get my head straight.

The Knicks would never say 'yes he's coming here' or anything like that... but like the Bulls, i would suspect if they thought they were out it would leak that they have 'moved on' ... but at the same time again, they'd never make any move before hearing from Lebrons mouth
