Sorry Al

Can you imagin being player that the team seems to want to offload and judging by comments here, not much love for Harrington either.

I just wanted to say thanks to Al, I enjoyed many of his court performances this year more so the previous year and yet due to him having some bad games, mainly through lack of good supply, he now seems destined to hit the road!

Heart and effort was given by Harrington and in my books that makes him a Warrior, fair play fella, hope to see you here next year but seems unlikely.

i agree

i remember when the team needed him down the stretch he huslted, played better d, and rebounded better than i have ever seen him do any of those things b4 and in my opinion hes our only true nba ready power forward, i say we keep him, unless we get a really good trade

maybe

I agree to keep him if he plays like he did his first year here. Or maybe hit some more of those 3’s we really needed at least.

Yep, if you're reading this, thanks Al!

The W’s definitely wouldn’t have made the Playoffs without him!

Good luck in the Future Al

with the emergence of B-Wright, signing of Mags, and the reported offer to Turiaf it means you’ll probaly be traded. Hope we get a good player in return and i hope you go to a decent-good team. And hopefully you can play your more natural position at PF.

Teams that may be interested
Milwaukee
Charlotte
Detroit?

And in other news about the Dubz, we have shown interest in Keyon Dooling. I think hes an upgrade over Buike and he can play both guard postions.

I LIKE YA AL

Honestly I like you. You’re mobile, can shoot with range, you’re not afraid to bang and when you get hot, you the MAN! To keep it real though, when we needed you the most you weren’t there. You disappear in crunch time and never get hot when we need it. I like you man! I wish you the best and hope you blossom this coming year with us or someone else. Good luck AL and you don’t look like a ninja turtle.

love for harrington

i agree dude. i remember “way” back-or a few years ago-when he was with the hawks and a FA a lot of warriors fans thought he was the MISSING PIECE. mullin tried to sign him but he ended up going to indiana instead.
he was the key piece for us in that trade (at least initially) and after less than 2 years on the team everyone is clammering to trade him.

i actually a big fan of his game. you can’t criticize him for his effort. he always gives his all on the court but this season his shots were just not falling in too many critical games. if maybe 20 of the 3s he missed and maybe 50 total, we would probably be a lot higher on him.

harrington is definitely a talent who you cannot criticize for not trying on the court—unlike many players on the league. the only problem is that nellie doesn’t play to harrington’s strengths and harrington’s strengths (besides shooting 3s) don’t fit well with what the warriors need up front. if the warriors had a dominant center that would be a different story. i think he would look really good playing next to dwight howard (who wouldn’t) or yao ming or someone like that. he was pretty much a one dimensional 3pt shooter/spread the floor guy this past season and it didn’t allow harrington to get creative on offense.

i’m mixed. i think he could be productive if nellie doesn’t force him to be strictly a 3pt shooter. but he has more value to other teams and has a big contract expiring at the right time… as much as i like him i think we should trade him… hmm…. this is tough
