The Kwame Brown signing shows the FO have done their thinking. I would rather see Kwame for 1 year than seeing Delembert/Prazbilla for 2-3 years, which prevents the team cap flexibility to do any major signing in next summer FA class, which is better than this year FA class.

I don’t know what he is looking for, but I’d have added AK-47 in a heart beat, then added a center after the fact. Udoh can back up Beans, and there were other guys out there like Dalembert who I like much more than Kwame. Man. If they had added Kirilenko and Dalembert to play defense this season, they would be a playoff team. Instead? A wasted amnesty move (which is HUGE) for a matched offer, and then Kwame Brown for a boat load of cash. Ugh.

We couldn’t afford Rudy and Brewer unless we released more players or didn’t sign our rookies. We needed a backup center which is why we went with Kwame. If we had the cap room adding depth with them would have been a good move..but we didn’t. Regardless, our depth is 10x’s better this year than it was last year. Klay will be a legitimate threat coming off the bench.

Notice how the Clippers matched to retain Jordan, Griffin’s “best buddy”? I really believe the Warriors need to keep Steph Curry’s friends on this team if they want to maximize the chance of retaining him as a Warrior. Big mistake letting Anthony Morrow go. Don’t let Reggie go either!

As always, Ws suck and missed out on getting Rudy Fernandez and Corey Brewer for a 2nd round pick. Both guys would have helped this sorry team. No one in the front office had the creativity to even think of this kind of trade. Kudos to Denver.

Ws are forever doomed.

Is Shawne Williams a defender ? If he is, get him because the W’s will be facing scoring SF/SG like Marcus Thorton from Sac, Durant, etc…If he can defend SF/SG, get him.

Between Curry, Ellis and Lee, they have enough scoring.

I love the idea of bring Richard Jefferson on board, but he’s at the point in his career where he wants toplay for a winner. Winners, we are not, unfortunately!

Kirilenko would be my choice but he would demand more money than the Dubs can spare, unless a player is traded outright. He provides defense at the small forward spot. I don’t like the K Brown move, would have taken a flyer on Pryzbilla and/or Fesenko for their toughness.
