Chris Wilcox only averages 7 rebounds a game which is only 1.5 different from Harringtons rebounding per game.

If you want rebounding, i suggest we go for david lee, he is a beast.

We gotta get Elton Brand if we don’t land no high draft pick. Yes, Jackson have to go. We trade JAckson, the 10 millions dollars,Brandon wright to see if the clippers will fell for it. If they don’t we trade them the draft pick with it too.

I, nor Mullin would do.

I don’t think we’ll make a play at Brand either.

Realistically, we use our 14th selection on Love, Arthur or Greene.

Re-sign AB, and Monta and let Baron exercise his option.

We play out the 09-10’ season with the same core players.

6. Warriors sign and trade F-Mickael Pietrus ($3.5m), $10.0m exception, and 14th pick to Seattle for G-Earl Watson ($6.0m), F-Chris Wilcox ($6.7m) [will this work??? Need clarification of trade exception rules]

No. It will not. The trade exception could be used on either Wilcox or Watson up until the time it expires shortly after the draft, but the remainder cannot be packaged with anything else to bring in a larger salaried player.

Sign and trades require players to be signed. The free agent period is after the draft and consequently, after the TPE has expired.

It’s also rather ridiculous to just toss in “sign and trade” as if any player is going to jump at this opportunity. Sign and trades require first and foremost the approval of the player involved. Pietrus has absolutely no motivation at all to take a sign and trade for less than the MLE, an amount he can try to negotiate with any team. I still suspect he thinks he’s worth more than that.

(For anyone trying to trade CJ Watson, he’s not under contract after year’s end. He is not an asset we can trade.)

First of all we cannot combine the trade exemption with another player.

Here is a way this trade would work. Keep in mind, we dont have many players under contract.

Harrington
Perovic

for
Watson
Wilcox

This trade is successfull in the ESPN trade machine. Not sure if Seattle would even make this trade unless we throw in a draft pick, but Perovic is a decent prospect. It may not be a bad trade considering we would have a PF who could finish down low and rebound and a backup point guard. Watson may be to expensive for a backup though. I am just hoping we can pull off a trade for Josh Smith, Artest type of player. Its going to be an interesting offseason.

This guy will be a free agent this year and when given playing time, has produced nice #s. Big guard ala Gilbert Arenas plus he shoot 3s @ 40%. Would be a nice cheap ($3M) replacement for Pietrus (I am assuming he won’t be back). There are a nice group of PFs in this years draft so I think we can land one of them with our 14th or higher pick and we can still go after Brand with our TPE. If we can do this, we will be a really deep team next year if Wright and Marco contributes. I don’t think we will be able to move Harrington with the $ he is making (let’s hope he works on his game and get better defensively)
