With so many season ticket holders, you’d figure the Warriors would be a little more willing to use $$$, but sadly no. There is so much support for this team, but the owners are too cheap. I totally agree with JUSTSOMENAME, if the team does well they get coverage which = $$$.

O well, I guess we will always be underdogs!

Rowell busted Cohan doing something he shouldnt and is now using this power to become the Man

This is no big deal. They are just reserving the right in case he doesn’t recover; it is the smart move. Both parties here want the contract to work out, and if monta recovers, but not to what he was—but still something, it is unlikely the warriors would still void the contract, as doing so—at that point—would draw the ire of the NBAPA. Therefore Monta isn’t too likely to be too irritated at their reserving the right.

plain flat shot down a decent extension for BD. the best player on the Warriors. Maybe he thinks that he was doing the Dubs a favor and avoiding a Dunleavy/Murph situation. The two aren’t even remotely comparable. If Rowell manages to push Mullin out and take over, we’re done. Idiots who come in assuming they can apply standard management principles to sports crack me up. While the fine on Ellis made a bit of sense – deducting pay for games he wouldn’t be able to play — the fact that he insisted on doing so to “make an example” and power-play Mully at the same time — ridiculous.

others have made this point better previously, but it deserves mention here – it’s NOT about spending the money, tis about spending it WISELY. Cohan’s crew ate some big $$ on Montgomery, and have spent on Mullin’s mistakes in the past (Murphy, Foyle, Dun, etc.) and the majority of NBA teams operate between the cap and the luxury tax – precisely where the Dubs are operating. They spent on Maggs and Turiaf, so it’s not that they won’t put the $$ on the table. If anyone wants to rehash whether they spend money or not review some of AB1’s posts and the replies they generated from esteemed posters

this is just a guess, but for a team that has lost as much as it has under Mullin it must be baffling to Rowell, Cohan, et al that Nelson and Mullin enjoy such love from the public and press while they are vilified – this may be an extension of simple envy
