Why would the Warriors take that kind of risk and trade Curry of all people especially since there is a good chance Paul won't resign? Unless Paul says he likes the Bay which would be news to me....GS would be idiots to trade arguably their best player for a rental

I think we should just leave the guy alone.. it was a poorly timed article, but he's still just doing his job.. can't hate on him... guys on ESPN and National TV/radio are doing a lot more damage than Jarrod did with that article imo.

OT- THIS IS TECHNICALLY MY 10,000th POST! :D :D :D :D

My first account was Ravenz_Rulz (and looking it up, I made it on Saturday, Sep 06, 2003). Haven't used it since I made my permanent one (DJRajX) way back in August 2004. But I still remember I had 92 posts with the first one though. So 9908 + 92 = 10,000 POSTS

:rockon:

So thanks magicman123 lol

Anyway, back to the thread at hand... carry on

I still don't understand why CP3 doesn't force his way to Orlando. If Orlando starts clearing some space, the threat would be legit.


Probably because he doesn't want to be a dick and force his team to trade him to a team with little to offer.

When Dwight is gone, you'll see how bad a coach he is. Dwight made him. All those wins that Stan has are because of Dwight. Can't believe people still don't see that.

Talks between him and demps were reportedly bumpy. Perhaps he has presented a list of 2 or 3 teams, I just wish we were one of those teams.

Clips can beat this offer by adding Gordon.

Clips saying they wont trade Gordon


i thought the problem was that Gordon wouldn't guarantee he'd extend with the Hornets?

either way, seeing that the Warriors are offering Curry, i can understand why NOH want to make a deal with them. i just don't see Paul agreeing to extend there. and if he does an extend and trade it can only be for one year, too. so Warriors have to gamble he'd stay, just to play in the Bay with Chandler, DLee and Monta (or whomever they can trade him for).

As much as the Warriors and Clips might be excited to be deep in CP3 talks, they cannot be ruled by hope. No extension in place, no deal.

Ya... I've said this before, Rudolph posts a lot on what HE thinks should happen. I mean he has sources and more insight than most fan, but this kind of stuff doesn't hold much water, don't think he is claiming it does either... But I would love to admit I'm wrong.

We're the only team that would trade for him without him committing to an extension.

Yeah right skin. Stan never had a winning season in Miami before he came to coach dwight :roll: . Who you want Adelman? Got adonis over there telling you "yeah man tell him Adelman"

Dwight's a goner. If he aint talking ow and finishes off the season as a free agent then he isn;t coming back to the team that Otis built. Doesn't matter who coaches them for the next year or two so money wise doesn't make a whole lot of sense firing Stan.
