Ok in all honesty, this was the best free agent frenzy in years, or at least I can remember. But now it is getting kinda ridiculous. If the odds weren’t in Miami’s favor, then how about now? After signing ALL THREE big free agents out there, they sign Mike Miller, retain Udonis Haslem, grabbed Big Z and now have added Eddie House. Then in the yahoo reports, it says that they are still thinking about adding Tracy McGrady. Is there some kind of tampering that Pat Riley has done. Any fan of any other team besides the Heat, I think [...]

So I know that newly acquired David Lee has been injured for a couple of days, but I can’t help but hope that if I don’t write about it, maybe it will only be a sprain. Unfortunately for Warrior fans and David Lee that isn’t true. According to reports, Lee went up to block up and shot and jammed his middle right finger. Lee was flying back to the Bay Area to get the final diagnosis.
Seems unfair that all the Warriors get injured before the season starts. This is probably why Amare and Dirk weren’t allowed to play for their [...]

In the midst of all the departures and arrivals of free agents, I’ve almost forgotten to mention that the logo for the Warriors has changed. The official website of the Golden State Warriors has an evolution of the logo changes throughout the year. I actually like the new logo, but it is sad that the old one has to go away. A part me think that it is because of marketing purposes and they are probably trying to make more money. With that said, it’s a time to get a new jersey!

To continue the rampage of changing places and changing faces, the Warriors made a big splash in the free agency category by being sold to minority Celtics partner, Joe Lacob and Mandalay Entertainment CEO Peter Guber for an NBA record, $450 million. Front runner, Larry Ellison, CEO of Oracle (ironically the building where the Warriors play in), has been left out in the cold and Warrior fans are again shaking their heads. From sources around the nation, it has said that Ellison had the highest bid, but the winner for the team went to Lacob and Guber instead. The bid [...]

Warrior news: None as of right now. Hopefully we keep dipping in the free agency frenzy so we can rebuild. I do think that with the Miami Heat rebuilding and several players moving over to the East, the West is open for new teams to make an impact in the conference and new teams into the playoffs.
Around the League:
The Bobcats sent Tyson Chandler packing again. Instead of Toronto, Chandler and center Alexis Ainjca are going to the Dallas Mavericks for Erick Dampier, Eduardo Najera, Matt Carroll and cash considerations to Bobcats.
Zydrunas Illgauskas is following his buddy, LBJ, to the Miami [...]

Warrior news: Anthony Morrow is officially a New Jersey Net. News outlets say the Warriors did a sign-and-trade with the Nets for a $4 million trade exception, while getting a second draft pick in 2011. Looks like the Warriors are cleaning house on top of the pending sale of the Warrior franchise.
Around the league:
The deal that would have sent Tyson Chandler and Boris Diaw to the Raptors for Jose Calderon and Reggie Evans to the Bobcats have been axed as Bobcats owner Michael Jordan is thinking twice about it.
Raptors, however, will send Hedo Turkoglu to the Suns for Leandro Barbosa.
The [...]

Warriors are doing what they can to cash in on free agent frenzy this year. For once, they got rid of dead weight and brought in David Lee, Charlie Bell and coaxed Brandan Wright to come and help turn this franchise around. I’m glad we aren’t dead like the Clippers. They have to share the same building as the much more popular and successful Lakers. Every number 1 pick they’ve taken has either been really bad (Danny Manning who?) or get hurt (Blake Griffen). I’d say that last 10 years of picks, the Clippers have done a half decent job, [...]

So you have to sit back and really take in the impact of what LBJ did to Cleveland and the league. It’s unnecessary to write about what a hoopla it was for LBJ to have a one hour special to announce to the world that he was choosing Miami over his hometown, over NY, over Chicago, over anybody really. In my opinion, he was super selfish, arrogant and made a  fool of himself and his reputation. Lots of articles have been written about how he’s selfish and about this decision. After Thursday night, I’m still thinking about his decision. I’m [...]

So technically tomorrow isn’t the day where we are going to find out where all these big name free agents are headed, but it is the beginning of the betting. The biggest name out there? LeBron James. Other big names are like Dwayne Wade, Chris Bosh, Amare Stoudemire, Dirk Nowitzki and smaller name, Paul Pierce.  Technically, if Kobe didn’t sign his contract extension with the Lakers he’d be the biggest name out there. And to be quite frank, I don’t think I’ve heard the Warriors made one splash into each of these player’s radar. In all reality, would we be able to [...]

I think I tweeted, something like, “Who is this guy?” I still don’t understand why we didn’t draft Greg Monroe. Rumors have been flying all over place saying that the Warriors drafted Ekpe Udoh for trading bait, which seems to make sense in one aspect and no sense in another. The position Udoh plays is occupied by several players, like Anthony Randolph or Andris Beidrins to name a few. And according to Udoh’s statistics, he doesn’t seem like a player that will make an immediate impact so either some veteran players will be moving or Udoh will be a trade [...]
