07-08 GSW Look-Alikes

mont8ellis — Fri, 22 Aug 2008 23:00:15 -0000

Ok, since the spending spree we had earlier this off season, the rest of the off season was pretty darn dull and unexciting. Maybe it's because we had one transaction after another in the length of roughly about a months time period. So i'm here to TRY to add some "oohs" and "ahhs" here at the GSoM site. Yes, Yes, we all know Al Harrington looks like a TMNT and that Marco Bellinelli has the looks of El Sylvester Styllone. BUT how about any others? I only have two.. but they are pretty right on the bullseye. Here are the two GSW Imposters.

P.S. Feel free to comment about any other Warrior look-alikes you've encountered with. haha!

Ladies And Gentleman, may I present to you the 06-07 Most Improved Player of the Year... MONTA "Lupe Fiasco" ELLIS! (ain't it odd that the Warriors.com highlight reel about Ellis had the instrumental "Superstar" by Lupe Fiasco..)

Last but certainly not the least... Azubuike's competition for the most DEFINED WARRIOR is none other than........ COREY "Ne-Yo" MAGGETTE!

Flashback Jerseys.. Would be really ILL if we had these jerseys for the 08-09 season and so forth. Original or with a little revamped NewDubz touch..

To all Knick fans.

Dubs fan here. Just saw on ESPN, and i saw an update that said Baron Davis is reportedly interested in joining your New York Knicks. So I was just wondering if we had signed him and traded him to your team.. who would it be for?

Here's my possible trade:

Baron Davis, Al Harrington, Stephen Jackson and the TPE for

#6 Pick, Stephon Marbury, Wilson Chandler

Knicks would have Baron, Crawford, Jackson, Randolph, Harrington, Curry

Jazz/Warriors

Okay, I got a lot of heat with my other proposed trade so I decided to make a little more realistic trade. How About..

Sign And Trade: M. Pietrus

Trade:Al Harrington

Trade: Marco Belinelli

14th Pick

TO: Jazz

Sign And Trade: Paul Millsap

Trade: Ronnie Brewer

Trade: Morris Almond

23rd Pick

Marco Belinelli and Morris Almond to me are almost the same players; it's Almond's defense that separates him from Belinelli. Brewer Gives us a much taller defensive presence when Monta Ellis is on the bench. Paul Millsap gives us the inside prescence that we desperately desire and the rebounding that has torn us up in the past years. With the 23rd pick I say, if any of the two collegiate champions (Mario Chalmers or Brandon Rush) are on the board, take em'. I'd go with Rush to back up Jax at the small forward spot. Then draft Ty Lawson (if we take Rush) or draft Bill Walker (if we take Chalmers). Then, possibly sign DeSegana Diop to beefen up our center position, and sign Stromile Swift to Add some depth at the 4 spot.

Warriors:

PG: Baron Davis, (Mario Chalmers), [Ty Lawson], CJ Watson

SG: Monta Ellis, Morris Almond, Kelenna Azubuike

SF: Stephen Jackson, Ronnie Brewer, [Brandon Rush], [Bill Walker]

PF: Brandan Wright, Paul Millsap, Stromile Swift

C: Andris Biedrins, Patrick O'Bryant, Kosta Perovic

Im clueless when it comes to salaries, so somebody please tell me if this works out.

Unite Baron With His Twin Rick Ross?

I think this idea might really work for both teams. With the champion Spurs practically the oldest team and the rest of the west getting younger, I believe we're in the middle.. with Baron,Jack, And Al trying to win a championship in the imminent future and with our young guns who are still trying to develop and find their true NBA skills. I just don't think the team is on the same page. Straight Up, Trade Al Harrington, Baron Davis (sign and trade), AND Jax to MIA for their 1st round draft pick (projected 1 overall), Udonis Haslem, Daequan Cook, And Dorrell Wright. Hear me out on this one. Dwayne Wade gets more than he bargained for with thhree potential All-Stars (in the Eastern Conference) And they are in CHAMPIONSHIP MODE. seemed to work with Boston this year. Also with Key free agents on the market this particular year, who wouldn't want to join a team with Baron, Jax, Wade, Al, AND MARION !? For our Dubs. We compete with the best of the best in the future. Question is.. Who do we draft with the #1 Overall Selection in The 2008 NBA Draft?

Miami:

Head Coach: Erik Spoelstra

PG: Baron Davis, Jason Williams, Marcus Banks

SG: Dwayne Wade, Ricky Davis, Blake Ahearn

SF: Stephen Jackson, Kasib Powell, Alexander Johnson

PF: Shawn Marion, All Harrington, Stephane Lasme

C: Mark Blount, Alonzo Mourning, Earl Barron

Golden State:

Head Coach: Keith Smart (Can't imagine Nellie running this roster)

PG: Derrick Rose(1st pick), Chris Duhon, CJ Watson

SG: Monta Ellis, Marco Bellinelli, Daequan Cook

SF: Donte Greene(14th pick), James Jones(FA), Kelenna Azubuike

PF:Brandan Wright, DeVon Hardin(44th pick), Udonis Haslem

C: Andris Biedrins, DeSagana Diop(FA), Patrick O'Bryant
