No more PF in Center position, no more 120 pts offense and 130 pts defense, no more 110 pts from the guards and 10 from the centers, no more short guys freak show, no more run and gun, no more investing in strange players, no more draft nonsense. For the love of god i am sick and tired.

Gilbert Arenas wasn't traded away. The Warriors would of kept him if they could, but since he was a second round pick, they didn't have any rights to sign him as a free agent, meaning other teams can offer him much more which they did. Cohan even said that they'll re-sign him even if it meant paying the luxury tax. Unfortunately, Cohan knew beforehand that it wasn't going to happen. Since then, the NBA has implemented a "Gilbert Arenas" rule which gives a team Bird Rights to all their second round picks so that this can be avoided.

But you're right, the lack of bench should be a huge concern for the Warriors, but with them being so close to the cap, the only way anything can happen is if they trade one of the key players.

and you think consistently trading star players is the way to make star players want to come here?


and why can't you see any way for us to improve? we have 3 quality pieces, we just need some depth now [bigs + starting sf + bench]. good drafting and FA signings can handle that. Curry/Ellis/Lee got better with every game they played together.
