Should Warriors consider trying to bring back Troy Murphy?

NO

Lmao.

It would be a good trade if they take him. In the same role, Murphy is taller, a better rebounder, a better scorer and a better shooter. He is a veteran of this franchise. If a Claxton-Rad work, it is definitively a good trade. We can clean a spot in thd roster indeed

He’s one of the biggest reasons (along with Corey Maggette) why those “fantasy stats” don’t mean a damn thing in terms of winning in the NBA.

Murphy was an underachiever the first,why would we want him back ??!!

Do not want Murphy back. Someone else did raise an interesting point, though, if it involved swapping Murphy and VladRad, sure, but that’s about the only way, and I don’t see a reason why the Pacers would do that…

in the my player mode, troy murphy is on the warriors. and i play as the pg on the warriors :) just a random fact

Troy Murphy is a losing basketball player. He not only has never been on a winning team, but he’s made almost every team he’s ever been on worse when he was on the floor. His defense is just that bad.

Do not want — do not remotely want. At least Vlad’s cheaper.

they play different ways but the production is more or less equal. Biedrins is younger and fits our style of play. What exactly is troy murphy gonna get us?

I don’t like the idea of trading for “decent” players.

We’re a (relatively) bad team; while a guy like Murphy may be a good fit on the warriors, he’s not the tipping point that takes us from lottery-team to playoff-team.

Right now, we have a team that, barring a miraculous second half of the season, will handily miss the playoffs. We should do two things:

1) Continue playing together. We’re just learning to have a lot of fun together, and the chemistry is showing. Players are learning to play together, while young players – Curry, Morrow, Martin, etc., – are beginning to develop. If we can be healthy next season (knock on wood), we will be a significantly better team. Look at the strides we’ve made this season….at the beginning of the season people said Monta and Curry couldn’t play together, 10 games in we should trade monta, 15 games in we should fire Nellie, 20 games in we should trade Maggette, 25 games in we should tank and play for John Wall. Now we’re coming together, Curry is a top-5 rookie, Maggette has embraced his role and become extremely efficient, Monta is stepping up and bordering superstardom, everyone is playing defense (still not a great defensive team, but we have made gargantuan strides in terms of individual defense), and there are second, third and fourth extra passes, energy back on the court and in the Oracle, camaraderie, and, most importantly, wins.

2) Explore options for an all-star to compliment Monta Ellis (though I prefer doing this via Free Agency, not trades). If we can get a good deal (Pau Gasol to the Lakers, anyone?) on the kind of player that is the piece that makes us a playoff contender, let’s go for it. By all means!

But until that right offer, we must continue to do the first thing, play together. Because we are getting better (In our last eight games we are 4-4, with the teams we played being a combined 179-125, with the only bad loss being to Portland. We had one arguably stolen in Denver, and lost to LA and Cleveland by a combined seven points). Much much much better. I see no reason to disrupt that chemistry and development by shipping off some mediocre player for a decent player.

If we land Bosh or Amar’e in FA this summer, then we surround with the perfect role players. But right now we’re growing as a team, and I don’t think we should disrupt the development of Martin, Hunter, etc., to bring in a guy that gives us 32 wins instead of 30.

just my 2 cents though.
