Golden State makes large offer to Elton Brand


Chris Mullin is not likely to come out of this offseason looking, shall we say, golden. First, he drafted a[nother] lanky power forward who will need some time to develop. Then, he allowed Baron Davis to mosey down the state to Los Angeles by refusing to negotiate an extension with the fan-fave.

Now, the Warriors appear to be grasping at straws by throwing around as much money as they can at Gilbert Arenas and Elton Brand, to whom they apparently offered a monster deal to on Wednesday.
Flush with cap space after Davis' sudden exit, the Warriors have offered free agent Elton Brand a five-year deal worth between $85 and $90 million, according to league sources.

Brand, like Davis, opted out of the final year of his contract just before Monday's deadline, giving up a guaranteed $16.4 million for next season. At the time, Brand's agent, David Falk, told reporters that the move was designed to create some cap flexibility for the Clippers to add another top-line player.

Well, I don't see the harm in trying to bring in a guy like Brand. He's a real talent. They'll never get him, but it doesn't hurt to try.

Re: Golden State makes large offer to Elton Brand

The thing that sucks though is the team only has 4 gaurds now, the rest of the team is all forwards and centers. They should really look for another star gaurd to replace Baron or they will definately be lacking at point because Watson does not have enough experience and Ellis has major improvement to be made at the point position before he can start there. We will see how things pan out this next week .
