Golden State Of Mind, a Golden State Warriors community

"There is little doubt that the Knicks will shop for a point guard this summer, but at least one has come shopping for them. According to a person with knowledge of the situation, the Warriors' Baron Davis has made inquiries into the interest of certain teams around the league, including the Knicks. Davis, 29, has an opt-out clause for this summer that could make him a free agent, but the Warriors don't believe he would walk away from the final year and $17.8 million, which is money the dynamic but oft-injured guard likely wouldn't make on the open market. So Davis' only other play is to see if another team would pursue a sign-and-trade for him. According to the source, his representation, after a preliminary discussion with the Warriors, has put out feelers to gauge the interest of teams in need of an upgrade at point guard... Davis' agent, Todd Ramasar, has said Davis would prefer to remain a Warrior, but initial discussions with executive Chris Mullin have not developed into extension talks." -- Alan Hahn **************************************** Just some good negotiation tactics or a serious worry? Plea to the Warriors' perpetually clueless front office- please don't fail us AGAIN. UPDATE (5/23/08 11:03am : Check out GSoM friend Tim Kawakami's thoughts on this NewDay article.
