The W’s need to hire a real respected basketball guy to earn some respect from players and teams around the league before they’ll be able to work out any decent trade. No player wants to come here right now, so we have to build from the top down.

I like the young core of this team, but it’s obvious that the W’s need a star who can raise his game at crunch time. This team is basically a team with 12 6th men. Any one of them could contribute to any team similar to what Pietrus did with Orlando. But none of them can take over the game at crunch time.

Once the front office is handled, we might be able to work out a 4 for 1 deal with someone who needs depth, but probably not until then.

#23 Fierce South – Thanks! When Rowell credited Riley at the GM introduction press conference for stuff Riley didn’t do – often belittling and demeaning W’s Franchise Son Chris Mullin, I actually cringed several times (couldn’t believe what I was hearing) and realized Rowell was a complete PRICK/JERK and ridiculous spin doctor. Of note was Rowell’s blaming of Mullin on missing the playoffs 4 of 5 years low blow. Rowell has shown us very poor character and absolute no class and symbolizes whats wrong with the W’s organization. Anyone hiring this moron Rowell to help run his organization for over a decade (with promotions) has to be a complete imbecile himself (Cohan).

Mullin and Nellie have much to do about what’s good of this current roster. Once Nellie got here, his input influenced Mullin decisions – good and bad. It could be so much better if Rowell wasn’t involved. It would be awesome if Cohan were to sell… wake me up when I’m done dreaming…

It was fun to watch Don Nelson get enjoyment watching Morrow as he got closer to 42 points. He even stood up when the crowd cheered at the record breaking shot. The Warriors have fan’s, short of a Laker game or two no other team packed the house the way the Dub’s did.

I was sitting with some media people from various parts of the country and Europe, it was funny that many of them had not heard of Morrow. They kept saying “What college is he from? Why wasn’t he drafted? Did he play last year?”

Morrow’s game still needs work but I am sure he will put in the work. His dribbling is suspect, especially if he gets trapped at the top with a double team. The coaches were right, he has to be aggressive and know where his outlet passing lanes with come from. He also seem’s to be very vocal now. When he’s not playing, he’s giving pointers to his teammates and like a vet working the ref’s for the next call.

Curry need’s to practice with Morrow and Randolph. Curry’s shot is smooth but Morrow’s is pure.
Curry looked winded. He’s not in Dub’s running shape yet. His shots were on the mark but he had no legs. He’s not ready for back to back nights at the NBA level.

I know it’s summer league and most of these guys playing will never be elite pro’s so when our guys are playing head and shoulders above them, at least we know the Dub’s are heading in the right direction.

Bring on the the regular season!

Yes. I am trying to get numbers and find out if the Warriors will match.

MT2, is this true?

Based on the current roster who do you guys think should be starting and @ what position?

Im thinking:

Ellis
Jax
KA
AR
AB

I know Nellie wants to move Jac to the SF, but I like KA there because he is a much better rebounder. Also Magette was much more effective coming off the bench.

It may be over optimistic to expect Curry to start from day 1. At one point I was convinced that Monta could not play PG but I think he actually looked pretty good at PG when he finally played. Although he does need to work on his ball handling.

What do you guys think??
