Clearing cap space for what? You know everything is right in the NBA world 
when the Warriors are destined to stink. The Warriors had a nice young, upcoming 
team last year. They now have lost their two best players in Arenas and 
Jamison and also lose valuable momentum changer Boykins. They still got some nice, 
but untested players. They have to hope that one their young guys will step up 
because I don't know why any established player would want to sign with them 
just to struggle to make the playoffs.

The Warriors had a nice young team. They should have bitten the bullet during 
the draft to open space to retain Arenas, kept Boykins (by dumping Dampier 
and Pietrus) and forget this madness. Take from the poor and give to the rich....

<< It looks to me like the Warriors are clearing cap space, and Jerry West 
wants 
 a rugged center with expiring contracts to dangle.  I expect to see Dampier 
 in Memphis before too long. >>
