Blanche and Wall for Curry and Biedrens. Yes Curry and Monta are a good back court, I think they can and do play well together, howver those two are the only trading chips Riley has left. The idiot traded all the others for nothing or let them walk without compensation. This team can’t win. The team can’t win without a decent big man. A rebounding, defensive minded big who can also score when needed. Biedrens is done, he’s totally worthless, an over paid back-up.

I hope the warriors can build on this win and like Starks wrote play with a purpose to WIN GAMES. I was very impressed with Monta’s disciplined playmaking . This team can make it work but they HAVE to play like this consistently. Between Nate,Monta,Steph, and D.Lee theres too much playmaking ability to be wasted and if they’re smart about it they could win games consistently provided they play solid defense consistently
Should Riley be fired..maybe. Getting Brandon Rush was a great deal for us, and how Earl Barron can help this team is yet to be seen. If the rookies keep progressing and earning playing time he and the f.o will get the credit
But AB isn’t working out and if Riley is half as smart as we think he is he’ll get someone who can do the jobs Beidrins isn’t and

ugh, yea that Greg Monroe thing still gets me.
Also, passing up or not trading down to later draft Marshon Brooks.

@Rotfogel – Not sure how you got ““hey we won A GAME…ONE FREAKING GAME…let’s go out and celebrate and feel good now” out of my post but OK. I’ll clarify.

I guess you’re so pessimistic that not even ONE FREAKING GAME is worth tyring to build some momentum on. You’re (rightfully) so pissed off from the constant losing that you can’t see ANYTHING positive about this season. So, I guess we should just forfeit the rest of our games, huh? You would not last long on my roster.

This team CAN win, believe it or not. (Well, apparently you don’t.) With a center doing anything whatsoever, this team would be in a much different position. But, I digress.

I am not so disillusioned that I think the team is suddenly playoff bound after last nights’ win. If you cruise the other Warrior fan sites (which I’m assuming you do), you’ve seen my other posts where I’m pretty much unhappy like everyone else.

Frankly, I’m tired of bitching and moaning about it. If you want to help the team win as a fan, how about not pissing down their victories, even if they are somewhat irrelevant? ANY win is positive. Go with that.

If I was in the Warrior locker room, you could guarantee that I’d be the one of the guys who’s had absolutely enough…to the point where I’m coming out of the locker room pissed and ready to throw punches if I have to in order to get a win.

Dang John Starks, you are one optimistic guy. Excuse me for being a warriors fan for my entire life, but I’ve seen this before. Look, we’ve got exactly a .93 percent chance of making the playoffs this year. We need to overhaul the lineup big time and we MUST get into the 2012 draft (way too much talent to be outta that one).

I’m not down with “hey we won A GAME…ONE FREAKING GAME…let’s go out and celebrate and feel good now”.

I’m not a freaking loser, I want winners, I want players who want to win. With this group, can’t do it. Can not coach with them, can not play with them, can’t do it. -Singletary

The Greg Monroe gaff eats away at my soul, but we can rectify that quickly by drafting someone like Jared Sullinger.

@Derek and Tay – Having Curry and Ellis on the same team is a pretty rare treat. Most GMs would kill (OK, maybe seriously maim) to have a backcourt that can do what the Warriors’ backcourt can do. You’d have to seriously consider every consequence of breaking them up.

I’m so over debating which of these guys should go, as if they simply cannot play together. Well, they DO play together and they CAN win together. We should be finding excuses to keep them both, not which one has to go. DONE.

Beyond that, it’s great to see this team get a win. I know these guys work hard and it doesn’t always pay off so a little positive reinforcement helps. For the most part, they’ve been holding down the fort…until the 4th quarter. With efforts like last nights, they will be in the hunt in most games they play.

Tay I agree with you 99%. I have no problem with the dance, but I agree Curry should be traded while he’s healthy.

Monta is the better player and he stays healthy, in fact he also plays hurt.

The Dubs need to fire Riley before trading anybody. Riley gets fleeced in every trade he makes. The guy blew up a playoff team, 11 deep in real players only to get what they currently have. Riley is by far the worse GM in the NBA.

Agreed trade Curry keep Monta don’t care about Curry’s 30 point night a few of his 3′s were so open I would have made them and what was up with his goofy dance after he made a 3 and then of course CSN shows it like 5 more time throughout the game. I’m sorry but I’m just not a Curry fan how soon before he gets hurt again? One game against ate am played their 3rd game in 3 days doesn’t mean squat! Warriors need to make a change trade Curry before the rest of the league sees what I see a string bean shooter who can’t guard anybody turns it over way too much for a supposedly smart player who has been around the league his ENTIRE life! But gets so much love bc his jumper is pretty weak get rid of him while we still can!
