Title: Nuggets/Warriors deal Post by: OldNuggetsGM on March 31, 2005, 07:40:54 PM Nuggets trade:
Phillip Meyers Warriors trade: Nick Collison Hector Strom Brent McClendon This deal allows the Nuggets to cover the loss of Nene. Dealing Meyers was tough, but the Nuggs have their eyes set on replacing him via free agency. Meyers just wasn't going to get enough PT behind Allen. Title: Nuggets/Warriors deal Post by: GoldenStateGM on March 31, 2005, 07:50:27 PM Warriors agree...
The Warriors are thrilled to bring in a player who should have been a lottery pick. They will miss Nick Collison, but he was 4th on the depth chart at PF/C. Nick had been talking about leaving in two years as well. Meyers will back up JRich, and bring some great outside shooting off the bench. He will also give the point guard position a try, ala Andre Igoudala. Title: Nuggets/Warriors deal Post by: CavsGM on March 31, 2005, 08:08:05 PM He was a lottery pick, 13th. A pretty fair trade. The Nuggets gets some good frontcourt depth here. The Warriors I think though gave up a tad too much for Meyers. Or could have gotten a little bit more in return.
Title: Nuggets/Warriors deal Post by: GoldenStateGM on March 31, 2005, 08:16:32 PM Collison had been on the block for a while. He is really good scorer, but his defense leaves a bit to be desired.
To be honest, McClendon was a draft mistake... I was going to cut him anyway before free agency began. Strom looks good, but getting the 13th pick for Collison and 2 2nd round picks is all good in my book. He gives me the outside shooting off the bench I needed with Barry gone. And now McDyess will actually get on the court... he gets paid way too much to be on the IR. :) Title: Nuggets/Warriors deal Post by: RaptorsGM on March 31, 2005, 08:22:21 PM I second that. Very even and fair trade from both sides.

I have plenty of overpaid guys on the roster... :)

Title: Nuggets/Warriors deal Post by: CavsGM on March 31, 2005, 09:56:40 PM I think you should introduce them to former Cavs Ira Newble and Eric Snow. They have a lot in common.
