since it's looking more and more likely that we won't keep Jack, i think we can afford Landry.

Tyler Hansborough had his qualifying offer rescinded. I wouldnt mind taking a good look at him. Good defense and hustle. Why not if he's cheap.

only thing that sucks about D12 is his lack of post moves. Dude's been in the game for awhile now and still hasn't gotten better in that department.

He handled his exit from Orlando really badly, but as a Laker fan I don't have ill will toward him regarding last year, and he didn't do any diva/crybaby types of things. He came back from his back surgery earlier than people expected him to, played through pain, and didn't do anything to cause a scene despite it being a really s**tty year in LA. Now he's a FA and he's exploring his options. I don't see what the problem is. He was a douche in his last days with Orlando, but he hasn't done anything wrong since then.

If he wants to come to the Warriors I would accept him. Bogut, Klay, and Biedrins and a lottery protected 1st in 2015 for Howard.

Curry
Rush
Barnes
Lee
Howard

The Warriors would still need to get a backup big man ( Lopez) and maybe bring back Jack if the deal was reasonable and not over the top. DO that and CHAMPIONSHIP.

I think for many it comes to the asking price. If it's Bogut and 2 future 1st round draft picks, it may be worth the gamble but when you are talking about adding players like Thompson and Barnes to the trade, the costs may just be too much for other posters.

I wish there was a way we could get Howard without having to break up our core. If only we weren't strangled by Biedrins and Jefferson's contract we could probably sign him outright and not worry about having to do a sign and trade.

If we gave up Klay in a sign and trade would we be able to flip Bogut for a quality SG to replace him?

Replace Klay with Barnes and you have yourself a deal. I'll call Mitch right now.

Bogut and 2 future 1sts is as much of a "gamble" as betting that the sun rises tomorrow. You'd be giving up virtually nothing for the best center in the league, and someone who fits the rest of your roster like a glove. No way the Lakers would do it without Klay or Barnes being involved, and I think the Dubs would be absolutely insane to say no that.

I saw a rumor that we're willing to trade Bogut and Klay/Barnes for Dwight, and I came here to say exactly what John said. I'd be willing to give up Klay, Bogut and Beans, but I'd tell the Lakers to piss off if they tried to get Barnes instead. The Lakers should be ecstatic to get a potential top-3 center when healthy and a young potential star in the league, not to mention 2/3 contracts are expiring and one is still on his rookie contract.
