OPEN THREAD: NBA Trade Deadline, 12pm PST

The NBA trading deadline is today at 1pm - just a few hours away. Are the Warriors going to make a deal? Are any more NBA deals going down? Heck, if you have a trade question you can ask Chad Ford of ESPN.
Let's start this off with some general NBA trade rumors from Marc Stein of ESPN.
Ron Artest
It sounds like the Kings would indeed rather move Artest than keep him at this point, given that they're unlikely to re-sign him in the summer and could use the final 29 games to get an even better feel for what John Salmons and their three point guards (Beno Udrih, Anthony Johnson and Tyronn Lue) can do. But Denver is still showing reluctance.
And here are some more trade rumors from Chad Ford. He writes about 15 teams in the article and the Warriors don't appear once. Either Mullin is being super secretive or nothing is brewing.
Post any rumors or actual trades (PROVIDE LINKS!) in this thread and discuss.

Warriors in the History Books... AGAIN!
Last season when the Warriors sent #9 overall 2006 Draft pick Patrick O'Bryant down to the D-League they made history by making him the first ever lottery pick to get sent to the place where NBA dreams are supposed to start. With their signing of C.J. Watson they've made NDBL history once again- and this time it's a good thing!

KBLX brings smooth R&B on the hardwood.
See how 102.9 and the Warriors have made history again after the jump!

Warriors Call Up Charles Watson aka CJ Watson aka Quiet Storm
Well we knew something was coming. The Warriors have called up NBDL point guard Charles Watson aka CJ Watson aka "Quiet Storm" from the Rio Grande Valley Vipers. Looks like Nellie will get to rest Baron Davis a little bit more now. Watson will be on a 10-day contract, but hopefully he's a longer term solution for the Warriors backup PG needs. For more check out Call-Up #9: CJ Watson to Golden State [DraftExpress] and Warriors to sign CJ Watson [Inside the Warriors].

A storm named CJ is coming to the Bay!
Make the jump for some more info on the Quiet Storm.

Hey Mr. DJ. Goodbye Mr. DJ
It looks like the Warriors are beginning to make moves before the trade deadline. Perhaps this might be the gateway move that will snowball into a trade for more talent. Perhaps its a sign that the Warriors are looking to upgrade. Starting today, the Warriors look like they're positioning themselves as major players in the near and far future.
Or maybe this is just a routine move to open up space for another NBDL stud to make his mark on our team and the NBA at large?

Looks like Warrior fans won't be able to take awkward candid shots with DJ MBenga anymore
The Warriors cut DJ Mbenga, as reported byJanny Hu in SFGate.com.
Though he played sparingly, his size and hustle (and low cost as Hu reports) was appreciated. Thank you Mr. Dj and farewell. Best of luck in the future. Please do not become a Warrior Killer in your next stint with another team.

Mickael Pietrus Becomes Tradeable on January 1st
When the clock strikes 12 am on Tuesday we'll be welcoming in 2008 (don't forget to participate in the GSoM New Year's Resolutions Contest) and saying goodbye to 2007. Will we also be saying goodbye to the currently longest tenured Golden State Warrior Mickael Pietrus soon after as well?

Where will Air France be flying in 2k8?
From Geoff Lepper [Contra Costa Times]:
After signing Pietrus to a one-year qualifying offer worth $3.47 million, the Warriors have been prohibited from dealing him for three months -- a limitation that ends Tuesday.
While both sides said they're not actively seeking a divorce, there is no doubt that Pietrus would still like to wind up with a team where he'll get more consistent playing time. And it's equally clear that the Warriors are open to the idea of dealing their longest-tenured player.
"If a trade is offered, I'll go," said Pietrus, who has the right to veto any deal because he would have to relinquish his "Larry Bird rights," potentially costing himself money on the free agent market next summer. "I'll give up my 'Bird rights' for 35 minutes (per game)."
According to executive vice president Chris Mullin, the Warriors are not shopping Pietrus' wares, but they are amenable to a trade if offered something suitably desirable.
Hop onboard Air France for a few thoughts and links after the jump!
