Why do the Warriors do this? Give up their franchise player to get Milicic, who is basically a worse version of their own stud Euro big man, Biedrins?
because they have stated that they want to rid themselves of j-rich...oh yeah and him and nellie crashed heads so that might be another reason OFF TOPIC: can someone tell me how the hell is erick dampier even being considered as an all star replacement for yao??? there are 3 centers off the top of my head that are hafing much better season out west than him and they are andrew bynum, TYSON CHANDLER (id ont see how he's not a lock when damp is being even considered, and the biggest surprise of all, mehmet okur?????????? i did this so that i dont have to make another thread for it, i know some of you get annoyed by new threads

At this point JRich is expendable under Nellie's system. I actually like this deal a lot for the Warriors.

As far as this deal goes, I'd do it in a heartbeart. I love Richardson and we aren't giving up much. Also, it looks like the Warriors' fans are pretty high on Darko. http://www.justbball.com/forums/showthread.php?t=66141
I don't like this trade a bit. We lose our bigs just for a guard basically. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Darko Milicic Pat Garrity Carlos Arroyo J.J. Redick Fran Vazquez 2007 Second Round Pick</div> Highlighted is who I don't want to go, more so Darko than J.J. Bigs are hard to come by in the NBA, and Darko is one of the better ones(believe it or not). The kid hasn't even gotten a chance to start and we're just going to trade him away? Even when he doesn't start, when given the minutes this kid produces. I don't like it at all. I like getting J-Rich, but to give away so much just to get a guard and two mediocre/trashy bigs is....meh. If we could hold Darko and put Grant or Battie in his place, I would pull the trigger in a hard beat. Right now however, I'm not so sure. On the fence on this.
