OFFICIAL GSWARRIORS 2012 SEASON THREAD.

Kaman sucks badly. Hes a selfish player he just like to fill the stat sheet up. Would be the dumbest move they ever did trading monta for kaman and trash just to help the magic. I think orlando made this trade up just to try and up the offers for dwight from teams
 
I rather have a C who is selfish and CAN fill up a stat sheet than one who can't do anything...Yes, that'd be Biedrins.

And sucks? You're using that word quite loosely.
 
Honestly, if we make that trade, I would strongly consider disowning this team forever. We are such a joke, its disgusting.

I have never, EVER, given serious thought to disowning one of the teams I love, but this has got to stop.  I dont understand how I can continue to stay emotionally invested in a team that doesnt have a clue.  Its not just that we are bad.  We have a horrible owner/front office which FINALLY sells the team to an owner that told us things would change and how the organization would be run would be different.  But no.  Its the same s**t.  No direction, no plan, no f***ing clue. 

I mean, what have we done since we got new ownership?

We give top 5 money to a top 20 PF.  We sign a coach that hasnt even coached 10 year olds before.  We have two incredible trade offers staring us in the face this offseason and we turn them down because we overvalue our top 20 PG.  The new CBA gives us a way to cut ties with a center who might be the worst player in the NBA, and we chose to use our amnesty on a cheap, expiring contract instead.  Then we say we wouldnt even consider trading our best player if we werent getting Dwight Howard in return....then a week later decide we are in talks to trade our best player for an injury prone, soft center. 

When will it end?
 
It's a frustrating franchise, but you and I both know you wouldnt disown the team.

There's no denying this team is a joke though. We've done nothing to better the franchise...Same %*#@, different day.
 
I'm 26 years old and have been a Warriors fan my entire life. I would never disown this team, but one thing I will do is not spend anymore $ on this franchise or pay attention to them like I used to. I don't think I've even watched a full game this season. This team has no direction. Once they show me they actually have a plan, ill start watching games again. Theres just no hope with this franchise and I thought having Cohan gone would change things.

From RealGM:
[h3]The $272,015 Microcosm[/h3]
By: Daniel Leroux

One of the most important components of a successful team is self-evaluation. This concept permeates every facet of decision-making, from identifying needs for the offseason to lineup management during games. Unfortunately, the 2011-12 Warriors fail at this in every conceivable level and the continuance of this problem has helped dig the team into their current hole.

$272,015

The Warriors’ role in the Jeremy Lin saga has been much discussed, including at RealGM. However, one underreported part of the story has been why the Warriors made the move. Since Lin was cut during the offseason, a few different rules applied to his departure.

First, it could not have been done for roster size purposes since those limits do not apply during that portion of the offseason. As such, the move was done for personnel evaluation and/or salary purposes. At first glance, that makes some sence because Golden State justified the move as one part of clearing the space to make an offer sheet for DeAndre Jordan. At first glance, Lin’s $762,195 salary goes a long way to making a better offer for the Clippers’ big man. The problem with this logic (which has not been discussed) is that since the Warriors were under the minimum number of roster spots, the NBA has a provision that a salary cap hold stays on the books for the minimum salary for each spot where there is not a player under contract. As such, the actual gain in salary flexibility for the Lin move is the difference between his salary and the cap hold: $272,015. That amount of money is pocket change in a contract offer, even to a notoriously frugal owner in Donald Sterling.

What’s more, the decision to waive Jeremy Lin came before the first team practice after a prolonged lockout that left players in dramatically different places physically due to the time off. The organization knew Lin was an extremely hard worker who was dedicated to making a career in the NBA. It would follow that an extended summer of time, clear knowledge of his correctable flaws, and a fierce desire to improve them would yield a better player than the one they saw on the court the previous season. So of course they coupled this hack job of a move on a contract the Clippers did not even wait a full week to match with delaying the signing of rookies Klay Thompson and Jeremy Tyler (both for cap hold purposes related to Jordan) while the team had a small window of practices to develop and analyze their talent.

Unsurprisingly, the Clippers matched the offer and the Warriors never used the minimal cap flexibility the Lin, Thompson, and Tyler decisions gave them since they are still under the salary cap (even after overpaying for Kwame Brown). The other problem here as it relates to management is that Warriors’ brass seems unwilling to have anyone take blame as being the person who made this decision- that may be one of the “benefits
 
If we were to somehow sign Dwight to an extension... what would the budget look like for picking up other free agents after 2012?
 
Thank you for posting that article wcghost.  It is spot on.  In my little rant earlier, I cant believe I completely forgot to list the fact that we cut a player that turned out to be what could be the biggest (and most positive) story in all of sports.

This team hasn't got a dime from me all year. Ya went to 1 game but they were free

I'd do Monta for Bogut (or something centered around that) any day of the week.

You guys were all wrong about Jeremy Lin

. Does anyone think Charles Jenkins and Acie Law are better than him now?

Cutting him to have the "chance" at signing DeAndre Jordan to an offer sheet was ridiculous. The chances the Clippers wouldn't match that was like 0.1%, and while DJ would definitely improve the W's, he wouldn't be the missing piece of the puzzle. And wasting the amnesty on Charlie Bell instead of Andris Biedrins. Unbelievable
