Set a record by getting banned for the 8th time!
After rehab I saw the light and promise to be kinder and gentler!
Probation is a very slippery slope!
Go watch the WNBA.
NBA-caliber athleticism is wasted on you.

lol please leave
don’t let the door hit you on the way out
Randolph is a garbage-point collector and Wright is probably never going to be an NBA starter, not JONeal at all.

Suck a fat one
Anthony Randolph is like Chris Webber, blah blah blah
How about Anthony Randolph is like Tyrus Thomas? Thomas: Super athletic, raw basketball skills, giant BUST. Anthony Randolph? Same as above, except bust in waiting.
You know how they say people go into denial during traumatic experiences? I’ve had a few real-life traumatic experiences, and I was never in denial. With regard to this trade, however, I’m going to deny it until I see Lee in a Ws jersey.
Then I’m gonna puke.

Someone let me have their shoulder
Imma shed some man tears
"I tell him straight, 'If you're going to lead, you have to be the first to practice. You have to come in, get your work down and be prepared for practice,' " assistant coach Keith Smart said. "He needs to figure out why he is having stomach problems and he's got to watch how LeBron (James), Kobe (Bryant) and D-Wade (Dwyane Wade) work. He needs to mimic that if he wants his teammates to speak volumes about him." -Keith Smart on Motna Ellis
DAVID LEE!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have been saying a sign and trade would happen for Lee since the all-star break. Curry last year and Lee this year. One star at a time!!!!!!!

Yeah! Woooo! What other undersized, non-physical players can we get? They need to get out to some girls jr. high games and start recruiting! the Ws are going to set a record for getting dunked on in 2010-11! Woooo!

Haha Lee was guarding centers all year last year. Obviously you did not watch the 10 min highlight video. Kelenna, Randolph and Turiaf do not have enough highlights for a 5 minute video combined.

Steinmetz said the trade will be official tomorrow.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Will the Warriors ever stop being a STUPID TEAM? I’m done. I am becoming a Kings/Clippers fan!
What did we trade
and underiszed 3 with a badly damaged knee, an underiszed 5 with little game, and a back up 4 who is too skinny and a headcase!

u obviously don't understand the nba...
and talent especially with big men..they need 4-5 years….u just don’t get it..have fun cheering for Lee when he’s 32 making 15 mill…have fun.

Were you as surprised when the Pistons traded Darko Milicic?
Big men need 4-5 years? Waa waa waa? GTFO you’re a Knicks fan now.
i am a knicks fan,...
doesn’t mean I can’t post here….randolph is not darko…darko never put up 28 14 with 5 blocks EVER in his life….just remember that you support this lame duck front office and this terrible move when RAndolph becomes an all star in the East and David Lee is 31.

not as soft as dunmurphy, that's for sure
and i don’t think you’ve watched lee play. he’s a hustle guy and far from soft. He’s also pretty damn athletic, go youtube the 2001 McDOnalds all star dunk contest. He’s not blow-your-mind athletic, but he’s pretty fly for a white guy (SEE WHAT I DID THERE)

Hahaha.
I love it. No wonder so many fans are unhappy, we actually made a good trade.
'Like' my band. I mean, it'd be awesome if you did that.

I know. I think it must be AR's relatives or stupid trolls from another site.
This is the best move in years by the W’s!

Stinkyfingers, I’m not a big internet guy, so thanks for defining troll for me. It’s you. Take a look at the Ws roster…

Haha, i know right? the dude better not touch the floor at all
His name is Bond, Brock Bond, and his adopted father? ME, any questions?
the sky is falling! the sky the falling!
people on this site are hilarious. Lee is not THAT great – neither is AR or neither will AR ever be. Its a trade that improves us for the short term, and if we add a decent SF then we might have something.
Lee is not our savior nor is he the end to our demise.
Hilarious.
Read Chad fords tweet..
He put a link.. Randolph, turiaf, buike, among others… Wats that meen?
Vlad better be the only added peace in that shit...
…but if he is doesn’t that make Lee’s contract is bigger?
Woa… so the warriors are definitely losing more players than receiving, so they’re going to have to pick someone up via FA
His name is Bond, Brock Bond, and his adopted father? ME, any questions?
good lord... here we go again, huh?
i just don’t see how the warriors spend more money on a dude from FA

i trust the riley front office
they’ve pulled some shrewd moves and non moves during the short time they’ve reigned. i feel good about this trade though it’s hard to see randolph go. Randolph is like the problem child who aces every intelligence test but can’t seem to do his homework or follow class rules. An underrated genius, maybe, but in the famous (paraphrased) words of JD Salinger, what’s the point of potential if you don’t do anything with it? (Referring to Catcher in the Rye)
Randolph is a garbage-point collector and Wright is probably never going to be an NBA starter, not JONeal at all.

On the fence on this one.
I think Lee is a very nice fit for this team, but that’s a lot of money for one guy. Especially with 2 large contracts on this bad team already. I think the x factor here is Monta. We finally add a veteran presence in the post, so he needs to shut up and play team basketball. I think after seeing that Curry is a ball player and now the addition of Lee he might be back on board with GS.
9 per for a center is hardly considered big.
13 for a 4 who averaged 20/11 is a good deal, especially when many experts think of him as a better choice than other available 4’s, including bosh and stoudemaire.
12 for an undersized 2 is a bit too much but not as retareded as say, 16 per for Rudy Gay.
Our contracts are significant but not bad, much better than the free money being doled around this season

1) How many minutes will Lee play at center? Is anyone here dumb enough to defend that reality?
2) We had a need for a SF, and we just traded our projected starting SF. Does anyone want to tell me that is a good thing?
Forget that Lee is better than AR. That’s not important. The Ws still suck, and they’ve just made their roster even more imbalanced.
