Re: Baron Davis is a Warrior!
That's it?
Couldn't they make a deal for Spree's expiring deal?

Who cares what your starting 5 is. They are clearing cap for next year. They got rid of some big contracts and got expirings in return. Only thing I'm wondering is if they could have had some one better than Speedy Claxton? I'm guessing the Warriors did not want to let go of Pietrus.

I think you have to realize though that BD doest play the entire season...ever.
I LOVE BD. But if he is the best PG in the universe for 25 games a year that doesnt impress me. Id rather an average PG for 84 games.
BD simply has been injured his whole career. Its time to make changes.

Re: Baron Davis is a Warrior!
well on the bright side Speedy's a pretty good player, I think he will start instead of (dare I say it) Dan Dickau.
But Bdiddy will be missed, he is a Hornet for life...

yeah it's time to make changes but trading away the probable best pg in the league even if he just playes 50 games a season??? I mean Baron is still very young he will be the first Warriors All-Star (or had they one before  )...we could have swapped role players or even star players, but not our best man...

I also felt that we didnt get enough for BD...
I understand the move for building the future but I felt at the very least Pietrus should have been in the deal.

Re: Baron Davis is a Warrior!
Claxton has a team option that more than likely will not be picked up.

Even more cap space.
I still think should have tried for Pietrus or Dunleavy, or even their 1st. Oh well, they probably did try. Either way they unloaded a ton of cap in one day. Not that bad.
I wonder what's gonna happen with Magloire.

Re: Baron Davis is a Warrior!
This really puts the Hornets in a good position IMO...
We get TONS of cap space to make a FA play in the offseason. Which is rare for the Hornets...
AND
We still get a top 5 draft pick in whats looking to be a better draft than we first expected...
