    I have to give Riley credit. Think about what he's done:

    SJax with almost an impossible contract, Gone;
    Jamal Crawford, Gone;
    Maggette with an impossible contract, Gone.

    Here's the topper as well, its reported he got $2M for moving 10 places in the 2nd round. Amazing, I heard the maximum amount in any trade is $3M. $2M for 10 spaces in the 2nd? How did he do that?

    Okay, he's not perfect, he let the expiring contracts of Speedy and Raja Bell go without anything in return but I figure that was Cohan's decision not his.

    Overall, the Warriors are a much brighter place than at the start of last year. Now if only Brandon Wright and Randolph can stay healthy and can mature/explode, look out. Of course, Nellie needs to go and the W's need to hire someone who will develop young players, not alienate them.
