I don't give a damn about pietrus, we should let him leave this summer, but Baron-monta-jrich-ike-AB is going to be a killer lineup in three years if we can keep these guys. Baron is Baron. J-rich is J-rich. Monta looks like within two seasons he'll be a consistent 23 and 6 player and eventually be better than either baron or jrich. Ike is always a dominant scorer when he gets in the game (which is rarely. his stats don't do him justice) and Biedrins looks like he has great potential, and is already probably one of the top eight centers in the game (I'd have to look at all the centers in the league to make a more educated guess). Two or three years down the road, when these guys have matured to some extent, this lineup's gonna be sick. If Cohan can get these guys to stay then we could get some great continuity going with the warriors.
I think the warriors should make the playoffs this year and by 3 years from now they might be like top 4 in the west,
Why would you not care about Pietrus? He is having a pretty good year, especially under the boards. The couple games that I have seen, he has done great.But I have to agree, this team could be great in a few years. They are already a good team right now, but with the youth that they possess, they could be a top 3 team in the west. It all depends on the progression of Ellis and Ike throughout this season and the next couple as well.

That is a good point. Although, I bet Pietrus wouldnt be more than 6 mil a year at best, and im sure he would want to stick around because Golden State might have a chance at a ring in a few years. Or at least a chance of making it to the finals.
