    He also elbowed Rob Kurz during practice. I was wondering why he had a band-aid on his chin.

    That's okay. You guys can always trade Randolph to the Grizzlies. :D

    Anyone good we get will invariably end up peaking with another team anyway, I don't see why it matters anymore.

    Such as whom? I can think of Larry Hughes and Michael Dunleavy having possibly a little bit better seasons after leaving the Warriors. But otherwise, Ike Diogu hasn't done too much, POB hasn't done anything, Barnes and Pietrus are about the same, Baron's not doing that well, JRich is/has been about the same, Donyell Marshall was probably about the same.

    But I hope nobody is saying let's trade Randolph on the Warriors. Perhaps he is a couple of months from being in position to really contribute anything.

    Earl Boykins! JK, well, he did alright after he left us but now he has disappeared. But if you look back more than a couple years (more like 14 years), it seems that the Warriors have had a history of being the NBA farm team.

    Gilbert Arenas, Jamison, Sprewell, Harrington, Webber. I mean, these players all had different circumstances that lead them elsewhere, but it's pretty disheartening to know that all of these players were once on our team at a young age.

    I can't believe Webber was our last best big and naturally he gets shipped out after an argument about Nelly wanting him to play one position bigger.

    Ugg... Arenas was a heartbreaker, but how many franchises actually get far when their combo guard doesn't really play defense and he dominates the ball and he doesn't always sends the best messages to his teammates.

    I think a sadder list is the players we missed out on that were franchise makers. We need a sure thing... We need our version of Shaq or Tim Duncan. Something that no GM could screw up on as a building block. We're missing dominant players.
