I read on hoopshype.com that the Warriors offered Kosta Perovic a 2 year contract, have you heard anything about this?

by J Rich 4 MVP on Jul 3, 2007 3:21 PM PDT reply actions

Yea I heard it

And I don't believe it. He would have been on this squad if the Warriors planned to bring him over.

I'll be there!

to watch Pierre Pierce and Nate Funk!

More Hardware Coming!

continuing the tradition

of very cool names associated with the Warriors: Alpha Bangura, Mindaugas Katelynas, and Nate Funk, welcome to the fold!

out of these guys

who's got a shot of being this yr's matt barnes. i'd say nate funk. he was the best player for creighton and crieghton was the second best team (to SIU which was real damn good this yr ranked as high as 4 i believe) of the missouri valley conference. which is one of the stronger conferences in the ncaas.

looks like a pretty good squad

i think this will be a great oppurtunity for kelenna, josh and POB to show that they can be a part of this team and we'll see how good brandan wright is

by travisl212 on Jul 3, 2007 3:59 PM PDT reply actions

That's

why I was wondering if we gave him a contract because I figured he'd be on our summer league squad if we had. I wanted to read the article but it's in a different language.

by J Rich 4 MVP on Jul 3, 2007 4:00 PM PDT reply actions

whoa

Didn't Toby Bailey play with the O'Bannon brothers at UCLA? And Lionel Chalmers was a baller at Xavier. Him and Sato (Romain?) made up a sick backcourt (With a young David West, I believe.)

by bozaframa on Jul 3, 2007 4:01 PM PDT reply actions

Yep

And he rocked a half Jerry Curl.

by pree on Jul 3, 2007 4:14 PM PDT up reply actions

And Rocked it Well

from what i remember. I went to a Steve Lavin basketball camp and got the UCLA poster with those cats on it.

by bozaframa on Jul 3, 2007 4:27 PM PDT up reply actions

speaking of 'curl'

wheres bill curley at!??!!??!?!

Mindaugas Katelynas F Tennessee-Chattanooga

I was checking out some of the players from our summer league roster and this guy doesn't look half bad, he's even got his own personal website. There's not much on it but he looks like he could help us on the glass and he fits our style of play if you watch his videos.

Same school

TO is from. Maybe we can steal a few good years out of him like the Niners did before he goes crazy...

dude, Jerry Dupree, remember...

...him and Desmon Farmer @ USC?! those guys were a circus.

Pierre Pierce

looks like a head case. This cat has to register as a sex offender. Not sure how he made it on our summer league squad.

by J Rich 4 MVP on Jul 3, 2007 5:11 PM PDT reply actions

Yeah

He sexually assaulted his ex-girlfriend at knife point http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pierre_Pierce

where's Rod Benson?

after reading his completely hilarious blog, i thought he would get an invite for sure??

Let's Go Oakland! Gas, Brake, Dip.

by OaktownFunk on Jul 3, 2007 6:37 PM PDT reply actions

man

gotta feel for rod, hopefully he gets an invite elsewhere.

nate funk

was awesome when i saw creighton play during march madness

by llamalimbo1 on Jul 3, 2007 7:08 PM PDT reply actions

I wish it was on TV

Seeing some POB and Azubuike action finally would be a treat for me.

Tony aka Drawlz600 is AWESOME!!!!

by Zorgon on Jul 3, 2007 7:09 PM PDT reply actions

Oh, and Lasme

Can't forget him. He's also very awesome.

Carlos Powell

I wonder if he is the same guy who played in the NBL over here in Australia last season? Good slashing type player, very energetic. He led the league in scoring at 29ppg and won the Slam Dunk comp. Hard to judge how good is playing in the NBL though.

by Ozwarrior on Jul 3, 2007 7:12 PM PDT reply actions

also

Are the Powell's related? they both went to college in the Carolinas.

by jtoj @ Golden State Of Mind on Jul 3, 2007 7:17 PM PDT up reply actions

Sounds like him

He sounds like a pretty intriguing player. Is he short, is that why he hasn't played in the nba yet?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carlos_Powell

by yehyeh82 on Jul 3, 2007 7:40 PM PDT up reply actions

Not short.

He was listed as 6'8 in the NBL and is about 95kg (210) He has an NBA body and is very quick for his size. Suspect outside shot.

pierre pierce

could be intrguing. he was a stud at iowa before the rape thing...

we will miss your j rich

by ripjrich on Jul 3, 2007 8:34 PM PDT reply actions

Katelynas

i remember watching him in the ncaa dunk contest and think he won. i wonder if he'd be a good fit for our team, definitly exciting enough to be onn it.
