Anyone notice he's been putting up some pretty good numbers..considering he was traded 3 times last year We could be using his type of production right now
He's a good shooter. If we were forced to play nothing but him, I'm sure he'd make some impact. Shooting touch is a gift. You either have it or you don't, no matter how good your mechanics are.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Bay_Area_Fan:</div><div class="quote_post">I bet Luis Flores would be putting up similar numbers if he played for the Hornets.</div> I doubt he would get 10+ assists a game but who knows..He just needs more PT period. The problem with our coaches is they only play our rookies a few minutes and as soon as they make a mistake they go back to the bench, it happened last year with Muss and now this year.. My problem with this is when the coach does finally decide to put the rookies in for a few minutes they are focusing too much on not making mistakes rather then just playing and getting into the flow of the game..Of course rookies are gonna be focusing on not making mistakes anyways but the more minutes they get, the more comfortable they will be..
Also the problem is we locked up Fisher for six years. We have no choice but to use up what we have as a long-term team member. Luis Flores might not even be re-signed. Mullin has to undo his mistake somehow.
^Yes excatly. Even though Flores is a second round pcik, he looks like a good one and Mully was really excited ablut him in the trade. It seems like Murphy, Biedrins, J-Rich, and Flores have really been his best things he has done all year

I still think he can be a good complementry player with the right team, he tries to do way to much here and it ends up hurting the team. He needs to know his role and stop forcing up 3's everytime up the court..With a guy like Kidd on this team it could do wonders for alot of our players...
^ For sure, if we had Kidd we would be a non stop running team. Just imagine. J-Kidd and and J-Rich running down the court on a fast break. J-Kidd either feeds the ball to JR, goes by himself, or if they are caught and have to slow down dish it to Murphy who shoots the transition three.
yeah but except for that one game where he made the two three's in the last 30 seconds of the game he has just been filling up stats in losses. He is a good player and i would definatly want him over fisher...without even taking into account there contracts.
If the Warriors were a team sure to be a factor in the playoffs,a team with a few real scoring threats,Fisher could be valuable. A team winning less than 40% does'nt HAVE "clutch",situations. On the Lakers,Fish never was the guy opponents worried about,so when the game was on the line he would get a good look at the basket. When he's defended,D Fish doesn"t shoot 3's better than the rest of the Warriors. IF the Warriors realize they MUST move,penetrate,push the tempo,and quit floating around the 3 pt arc,they will be better overall,and They will get some open 3's. Guys like Dickau who are savvy but underused are where a team can improve. I hope that is the next phase. I also feel the Warriors need to draft effectively and once they draft a guy...play him
The warriors have to play their cards perfectly because there's not a whole lot of maneuverability....
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting custodianrules2:</div><div class="quote_post">The warriors have to play their cards perfectly because there's not a whole lot of maneuverability....</div> Very true,you can get screwed signing the wrong guy-or failing to sign the right guy. The Warriors need a long range plan. Mullin has to get across to Montgomery that EVERYONE needs to play. Warrior coaches are caught up in trying to win 35% instead of 30% each year and The idea that maximizing the skills and value of everyone you have on the roster is THE real goal,gets lost,and this has been the pattern now for at least 10 years. On draft day they need to commit to the idea that they have to pick a guy with enough skills to play-and then play the guy. Any free agent signing has to make sense long haul,and,as the price is high,he must be a guy with a solid work ethic and something he brings that is important and you can count on it
What Mullin really missed out on last year was getting someone like a bigger version of Stromile Swift. Folye obviously wasn't worth the money we paid him and he defenitly wasn't Damp's replacement. I really thought the Warriors should go after someone like Swift who is quick, long, a good shot blocker, and can score. He is basically a smaller, quciker, better scoring version of Foyle. The guy that was a mistake to sign was Fisher. Look at him, he fouls, shoots threes, and drives as often as Warriors Redux posts. If he can't be the player we need him to be, we really ought to move him for someone like Swift. Mullin just really missed out
Dickau is a nice point guard. He can shoot the ball, as well as penetrate and find open players. This guy doesn't shy away from big situations and I think he could be a solid PG or backup in the NBA.
