    Those three guys were at the top of the shopping list for many contending teams that need help up front.

    However, we have some new developments today:
    Malone retired , and Mourning's K was bought out by the Raptors , vitrually assuring that he will sign with the Heat for the remainder of the year.

    These two events make Robinson the #1 commodity on the market right now. This could work out EXTREMELY well for the Warriors if they do something good with the opportunity.

    Here are some teams that could potentially have interest in Cliff:

    The Atlantic Division (all of em)
    Cleveland
    Chicago
    Indiana
    Washington
    Orlando
    Seattle
    Minnesota
    Lakers
    San Antonio
    Dallas
    Houston
    Memphis

    There could be a few more or less . . . but there are 17 teams on that list. It's like those Lending Tree commercials: they compete, we win.

    I could see us landing a decent player and a first round pick straight up for Cliff, or a legitimately good player in a multi-team package deal.

    On top of that, remember that once Cliff is traded, Dale's value will go up as well.

    Cool, GSWScruff, but doesn't that mean if Zo gets picked up by Miami, they'll have to take on his old contract?

    ^Well Mullin seems to want Redd and there might be a big blockbuster. Dunleavy, Cliff, D-Squared for Redd and Van Horn. Whooo!!!!

    I don't know if that's anything to cheer about since the trade means we basically are guaranteed to keep Horn, but not Redd. Even if we did keep Redd, it would force Richardson to play out of position. Well, I take that back, he is a forward, but in a shooting guard's body (Kind of like Corey Maggette, Michael Finley, Desmond Mason, etc). I don't mind KVH, but he's still really soft on defense and his injuries are a question mark. At least he's an expiring contract next season.
