A man of 23 years of age has his parents looking after his finances? He'll never grow up like that. Independence with guidance is the best way.

The Golden State Warriors have two open roster spots and according to The Oakland Tribune, co-owner Joe Lacob said the team might fill the 14th position before the end of the regular season.

That spot might go to a former member of the team -- Dominic McGuire.

"He was great for us, and I have a lot of love for him," said head coach Mark Jackson on Wednesday night. "I appreciate his professionalism, the way he battled, the way he competed. ... I'm very comfortable and confident in our guys. But we will talk, ownership and management, and make a decision which way we will go. Dominic McGuire is a guy who's out there."

McGuire played well for the Warriors last season, especially on the defensive end of the floor. The Warriors are not strong defensively, so bringing McGuire back makes sense.

The Warriors are currently about $295,000 below the luxury tax and they can sign McGuire and still stay below the threshold by giving him a rest-of-season contract for the veteran minimum. McGuire has already played this season with Indiana, New Orleans and Toronto.


I thnk this would be a great idea.

I would LOVE McGuire.

PLEASE, Joe... Bob... Logo... WHOEVER is mulling this around, MAKE it HAPPEN.

I've been clamoring for a shut-down perimeter defender for months; was willing to deal Barnes or Klay to get one. If McGuire is an option and there are two open roster spots, there is NO reason not to go out and get him. For real.

He'd be a SF and that would mean less minutes for Green and if he's still doing anything productive, RJ. Think he would be good though, because of his defense which is always a plus.

Looks like they've filled one of those spots with some guy named Malcolm Thomas.

"The Golden State Warriors will sign Malcolm Thomas to a 10-day contract.

The Warriors have two roster spots available following their cap-saving trades of Jeremy Tyler and Charles Jenkins before the deadline.

Thomas played for Maccabi Tel Aviv this season until February and recently joined the Los Angeles D-Fenders of the D-League."

Makes sense, no?

The veteran minimum for McGuire would push them back over the cap, right? Which would undo the deadline deals when we gave Jenkins and Tyler away.

As long as green gets more minutes than Mcguire I am fine with it.

And 32, we wanted to avoid the cap deadline because repeat offenders have penalties. We got under before the deadline, so now we are fine again.

At this point, they don't need another front court player. They need a guard. Preferably a point guard, especially if Jack plans to keep taking the second most shots in the game. He's basically a shooting guard for the Warriors.

Game 5 vs the Spurs Richard Jefferson checking in, was on the spurs side. Manu and Duncan did not take kindly to it, and Jefferson did not really react (which I did not like), strange stare down though by Duncan near the end.

I know this isn't about the Warriors, or basketball at all, but, it just reminded me of our often discussions about statistics. :mrgreen:
