I exhausted myself talking to people about how Stephen Jackson could possibly be moved .. the only realistic deals that I could come up with are listed in this article.

They are ..
1) Jack and George for Yi, Sean Williams, and Hassell
2) Jack for Varejao OR Jack and Law for Ilgauskas
3) Jack and Law for Jared Jeffries, Toney Douglas, and Chris Hunter
4) Jack for Landry and Cook

I justify each deal and conclude with this: this whole situation sucks and the Warriors should just end this garbage and move on. Get out of his deal and rebuild.

Just got word that the Warriors have suspended Stephen Jackson for two games due to "conduct detrimental to the team." He will serve his suspension during the next two preseason games for the Warriors.

What would you ask Ronny Turiaf?


What's up everyone?

So most of you know that I like to share as much of my access with the players as I can. I'll be interviewing Ronny Turiaf sometime tomorrow afternoon and although I've got my little list of questions, I'd like to get an idea of what you guys want to hear from him. I'll obviously ask about Steph and Monta and some of the more general things, but what kinds of things are you looking for his opinions about?

Anything that's appropriate, I'll try to get to. The feature on him should probably be up on Friday sometime.

Thanks guys and I hope I can give you something you enjoy reading!

D-League-a-palooza today! Sounds like it's time for a lot of Marcus Williams .. there's also the possibility that a trade for a PG has gone down. I'll let you know as soon as I do.

Title really says it all .. but this could be good for the kid. Needs to develop offensive skills.

Something a little positive in some trying times .. although, the drama is kinda fun!

Taking Questions ..

Hey everyone ..

Just like I did on Friday, I'll be blogging during the Warriors game at Arco Arena tonight. If you have any questions for the guys, let me know and I'll see what I can do. Drop a comment either here or there and I'll hopefully get the answers to the kinds of things you'd like to know about.

As an aside - there's been a whole bunch of Gerald Wallae talk and I have to tell you that nothing that I have heard leads me to believe he is on the Warriors' radar right now. I believe the Harrington talk will increase next month, but for now, the team isn't getting what it is looking for. I would expect a package of two players that are younger, not the homerun that everyone wants.

Update: Let's just make this an open Q&A .. ask away ..

So yea .. he's not going to be healthy until mid-December for sure. Hefty, but fair nonetheless.

I won't link to these every week .. but we're doing another one of these chats. Last week honestly just turned into a Warriors Q/A, which is totally fine. Feel free to drop in on Saturday at 11 AM and we can do this thing again :)

So we're running chats nowadays over at HOOPSWORLD and I'll be doing my first one this Saturday at 11AM PST. You can ask about the Warriors or anything else and can get some questions in early. I'll pretty much answer anything you can come with, so come strong with those Warriors questions!!
