Official 2012 NBA Trade Deadline Thread: The Dwightmare is Over.

He's not assertive, doesn't look confident, needs to drive the ball more often cause his jumpshot isn't falling.

Crawford or Allen should be our main targets @ sg.  MP is a good last resort. 
 
I expected a lot more for Wes when he came into the league... Not leading the Wolves on his back, but atleast a solid player that was able to contribute consistantly.

[h2]More Warriors[/h2]
  • Stephen Curry plays in Warriors' rout of Wizards 03.06.12
  • Warriors' Ekpe Udoh to start over Andris Biedrins 03.06.12
  • Outside shooting not helping slumping Warriors 03.05.12
  • Warriors stumble in 83-75 loss to Raptors 03.05.12



According to league and team sources, the Warriors have had conversations with just about everyone as the March 15 trade deadline approaches:

Atlanta: The Warriors think they could get Joe Johnson but feel he's a more expensive and possibly inferior player to Monta Ellis. They'd like Josh Smith, but they haven't found the Hawks willing to part with the forward.

Boston: The Warriors don't see any gains from taking on the expiring contracts of Ray Allen or Kevin Garnett and wouldn't do a Rajon Rondo-for-Stephen Curry deal.

Chicago: The Warriors don't think Luol Deng will get moved, and they believe the Bulls will match any offer sheet on restricted free agent center Omer Asik this summer.

Cleveland: The Warriors inquired about Anderson Varejao and were turned down. Ramon Sessions wouldn't help the Warriors unless the makeup of the roster changes drastically.

Dallas: The Warriors like their swingman tandem of Dorell Wright and Brandon Rush better than dealing for Shawn Marion. "I can't tell what Dallas is doing. I'm as confused as everybody else," one Warriors source said.

Denver: The Nuggets are trying to deal forward Chris Anderson. "He might get traded, but it won't be to us," a Warriors source said.

Houston: The Warriors like power forward Luis Scola, but they don't feel like they can get a fair deal from the Rockets.

Lakers: The Warriors don't think they can find the proper parameters for a Pau Gasol trade.

Memphis: When Marreese Speights was dealt to the Grizzlies, the Warriors were never involved.

Milwaukee: The Warriors haven't had talks about Andrew Bogut yet, but they believe the asking price would be too high.

Minnesota: The Warriors don't think dealing for Michael Beasley would change their team.

New Jersey: Brook Lopez isn't a likely trade acquisition, because the Warriors need a big man who rebounds. They also could explore signing him this summer.

New Orleans: The Warriors talk to the Hornets quite a bit, but they think Chris Kaman's play may have driven up the asking price.

Orlando: The Magic want Monta Ellis, but the Warriors won't deal him without getting Dwight Howard in return. Orlando's other players don't appeal to the Warriors.

Phoenix: The Warriors will consider signing Robin Lopez in the offseason.

Portland: The Trailblazers haven't shown interest in moving Nicolas Batum, and Joe Lacob says he turned down a deal for Gerald Wallace last season.

Toronto: The Warriors haven't had discussions about Leandro Barbosa.

Utah: The Warriors haven't shown much interest in either Devin Harris or C.J. Miles.

Washington: Though they feel their locker room could take on a potential headache, the Warriors don't like Andray Blatche. They are more likely to go after JaVale McGee this offseason than trade for him now.

I'd really prefer for him to stay in Memphis considering how they're using him lately.. But him on the wolves sounds very interesting running with Love & Rubio

With Hamilton getting hurt again, I guess the Bulls will now seriously consider adding another 2-guard.....:::sigh::::::

Interesting...the price seemed higher last season.

So does he truly deserve "bum" status as some of you guys say, or will a change of scenery help?
 
The chances that OJ is traded by the deadline are probably less than 15%. A few months earlier, and it was over 50%.

His role has increased with the team as a combo guard. He's a scorer off the bench, handles the backup PG duties and shooter. He's too important to the team right now to trade him. There's actually a good chance he re-signs with Memphis, if the team makes it deep into the playoffs.

Then, there's also a chance he accepts the QO next year to become unrestricted the year after.

heard they are interested in Ben Gordon

Boris Diaw has asked the Bobcats to trade him or buy him out. He's lost 20 pounds this season after coming into the season overweight.

Him passing up open shots to pass the ball has pissed Silas off and I've been ready to get rid of him. He's owed 9 mil this season and is an expiring contract. I'd take a draft pick or a young prospect for him

i think honestly the Pistons would take any expiring so they could use the amnesty on Charlie V this summer and just try and sign decent young talent.

Yup you're right. He wouldnt solve our need for a big shooting guard anyway. Pass.

I never understood why Detroit did that
 
Ew. Jamal Crawford would completely ruin the great ball movement that the T-Wolves have. Ray Allen and Grant Hill are the two guys they need to look into.
