So Azu is here for this year AND two more. According to NBA rules options cannot exist on any year of a contract except the final year and ETOs cannot be put into contracts unless the contract is a six-year deal. So under no circumstances will Azubuike be a free agent next season (unless the Warriors waive him, which they are not going to do).    sorry, i was confused.  i was looking at espn trade machine, and it says that he has 1 yr left...

Not to be a party p00per, but I'm going to give this one to the Lakers in a double-didget victory. No way Phil Jax gets suckered into the Warriors brand of gadget-ball.

The Michigan team was good, not as good as the Fab Five team, in terms of talent. Tarpley had some talent. And just to cliarify, I was really trying to talk about talent which doesn't neccessarily correlate with winning. Billy Owens could be out of shape and hungover, show up late, and drop a triple-double in a win. That's talent.    Yeah. Owens was a man against boys in college.

I could see Melo forcing his way out of Denver after a couple of seasons of losing to the Lakers in the WCF. Losing wears on superstars. Durant will almost ceratinly force his way out of OKC at some point in his career. Roy could get dealt if the right deal came along.

If Monta continues to dominate on offense and show up on D then yeah, he won't be traded. But the odds are one of Monta/Curry/Morrow will be traded for a real '3'. Fortunately the warriors have some time before they round out their roster.

Lakers 82 Warriors 140

NBK, as the Warriors won against Dallas, are you going to credit Nelson?

They won 2 games but against 2 mediocre teams, Indiana and Toronto. Jackson seems like the same Jackson we had and I think the Bobcats will struggle with him as their main man, as any team would. Let's see how they do against Cleveland tonight. If I were the Bobcats I'd wait until closer to the trade deadline and try to flip Jackson to another team for a better fit.

Warriors send Corey Maggette and Speedy Claxton to the Nets for Terrance Williams, Tony Battie and Keyon Dooling... This would give the Nets a scorer to help out Devin Harris and Chris Douglas-Roberts. It will only add $3.5 million to their payroll next season. Which could (probably not) lure a bigger free agent to join an established set of players and with their 1st overall(odds are) pick they could be set up well for the next few seasons....

This win just brought the morale up for the warriors and warriors fans. GO WARRIORS!
