I think this bench combo would destroy any other team's bench. We get pg - Dunleavy sg - Pietrus sf - some defensive guy / long distance shooter like Jumaine Jones's game or somebody pf - Murphy or Cliff Robinson (they are both good starting or off the bench) C - ??? Chris Mihm? Marcus Blount? Joel Pryzbilla? All these guys are bangers.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting custodianrules2:</div><div class="quote_post"> sf - some defensive guy / long distance shooter like Jumaine Jones's game or somebody</div>I would love to have a Reja Bell type player to back up this spot. But who would they be backing up if not Dunleavy?
I love Raja Bell! He's really underrated IMO. He could defend much bigger forwards kind of like how Trenton Hassel operates.
"I would love to have a Reja Bell type player to back up this spot. But who would they be backing up if not Dunleavy?" Rudeezy i think this will answer your question; Nick Van Exel would be the other back up PG. And i wouldn't say that Dunleavy(he's a starter so he really shouldn't count), NVE, Pietrus, and Clifford would be destroying every other team's bench. I think if you keep Cardinal and keep or get a good replacement for Calbert, Dampier, and Foyle, then it will definitly be a good bench. But if you looked around the league, there are a lot of good benches, starting with the Pacers, Mavs, Kings, TWolves, etc. And it's hard to say that the Warriors could have a bench as good much less better than those 4 teams along with several other teams in the league.

Just look at the Mavs, they really missed his defense this year to say the least. He is a hard nosed defender and he really helped Utah suprise a lot of people this year. I would love to have a guy like Bell come to the Bay.
I don't see Mark Blount as a player coming off the bench, he' going to get a decent amount of money in the FA market because he averaged 10 points, 7 rebounds, 0.98 stelas, and 1.29 blocks in 29 minutes a game, and shot 56.6% second in the league to Shaq.
Yea, the Raptors had him, he'll die in the West lol, he wasn't really what we expected, he was supposed to be a banger and good rebounder, but didn't show much of that, and he has that 14-15 foot J he can hit, but he didn't start hitting it till towards the end. He can bang kinda, but he's not going to control the paint or block shots or any of that.
