Troy Murphy shot 43% FG and 32% 3FG...thats pitifull for a PF the guy is a streak shooter that has turned soft on offense. I don't care if my PF/C can shoot a jumper or not, they are the last people I want shooting jumpers.

I love how people say 'this guy has range'....just because you shoot three pointers and lots of jumpers it doesn't mean you have range...43% and 32%...not good 'range'.
First off, is Al Harrington going to start? I'd think so, over the inexperienced Diogu. Anyway, they moved the wrong guy anyway. Mike Dunleavy Jr. needs to go first. Ike probably will play center, even though he'd be undersized. Andris Biedrins will need more minutes too. And is Monta Ellis backup point guard? I think the Warriors have too many questions to make the playoffs. Atlanta made out well in this deal. Al wasn't coming back anyway. Pietrius is a solid all-around player, IMO better than Childress, and although I'm not to high on Troy Murphy, he is a good, but soft, power forward, and a above average rebounder with a nice jumper.
BCB, when you can shoot 3 ponters you have range. It doesnt matter what the percentage is. If a big man can make 3 pointers he has range. Also, Troy doesnt just shoot 3 pointers. He gets most of his points on deep 2's that most Power Forward's cant make. It also stretches the defenders out, and makes it easier on the other players to score points when the PF is out guarding the other PF on the perimeter..
Well if thats the case, every player in the NBA has good range because they can shoot three pointers.
