If the buyout numbers are correct (around $13 million as the CC Times said??), it saves the Warriors a ton, including from a salary cap perspective. Brilliant move if it is accurate.

What the Foyle buyout really means: - dsigns 2007-08-14 08:21:54 (449 views)

all trading Foyle would have brought in was contracts longer than his. - stomper 2007-08-14 09:18:26 (143 views)

How much money do they save for buying out Foyle? - Tortoise 2007-08-14 09:05:13 (158 views)

Savings the next 2 years: about $3.0M and $3.3M ($660K owed the 3rd year) - statsman 2007-08-14 09:45:36 (107 views)

Man, this is a jaded group. SAVING MONEY IS GOOD FOR THE TEAM!!! - one flap down 2007-08-14 08:47:59 (146 views)

Re: totally disagree.. the team saves money AND it opens up a roster spot for someone who will - jer7o7 2007-08-14 08:41:40 (169 views)

Thats the point, he could have been used to acquire someone who will actually play - dsigns 2007-08-14 08:44:41 (125 views)

WHO? WHEN? - stick_doggie_dog 2007-08-14 09:48:35 (106 views)

No, the point is, they were NEVER going to do that. - gsw_hoops 2007-08-14 09:12:27 (123 views)

Re: lol.. who the hell would want to trade for foyle when he has 2 years left on his contract? - jer7o7 2007-08-14 08:49:38 (115 views)

next season. the warriors seem to be trying to win now. if they can use the extra dough - skippy mcgizzle 2007-08-14 08:46:36 (125 views)

wasn't Cohan the owner when Jamison/JRich/Dun/Murph/Foyle/Fisher were given big money? - seven-eleven 2007-08-14 08:37:56 (139 views)

Every one of those players has been moved...most due to contracts - dsigns 2007-08-14 08:39:43 (107 views)

Cuz they made bad decisions and signed those players to more than they're worth - Tortoise 2007-08-14 08:54:23 (118 views)

moved due to the genius of Nelson and Mullin - Garlicboy 2007-08-14 08:42:17 (107 views)

It's not so obvious now, but choosing Lasme/cap relief over Foyle will be a very good move. - Pointman 2007-08-14 08:33:11 (157 views)

Do you really think that Baron will get extended???...LOL - Khoee_Reborn 2007-08-14 08:37:28 (110 views)

If he stays as healthy as he did last year, definately. - Pointman 2007-08-14 08:51:17 (107 views)

Im a huge advocate of losing Foyle, but the moves Im seeing look very Cohan to me - dsigns 2007-08-14 08:35:02 (120 views)

maybe, but none of these moves lately hurt the team. these decisions don't seem random money saving - skippy mcgizzle 2007-08-14 08:41:04 (127 views)

It helps team dichotomy, both Coach and Owner - Garlicboy 2007-08-14 08:40:48 (108 views)

True, although at $13 million it's good for the team. - Ben 2007-08-14 08:26:11 (192 views)

Re: True, although at $13 million it's good for the team. - statsman 2007-08-14 08:28:45 (142 views)

I disagree - with only two years left, he could have been used in exchange for another bad (worse) - Ben 2007-08-14 08:31:23 (136 views)

Which worse contract? Miles? How would that help? - statsman 2007-08-14 08:37:17 (122 views)

Kirilenko? Jaric in a KG deal (obviously not any more)? - Ben 2007-08-14 08:40:05 (118 views)

WAS 1 year away, now the only time he would have actually been useful is out the door - dsigns 2007-08-14 08:41:55 (111 views)

Teams who trade for an expiring dont care about the player. Half the time they waive them after the - dsigns 2007-08-14 08:38:36 (122 views)

and Sarunas's too... good mid-sized expiring contract - gswfan4ever 2007-08-14 08:27:49 (115 views)

We will keep him and let him expire....just a guess - dsigns 2007-08-14 08:28:20 (111 views)

I hope so...I think Runi will have value at the deadline...veteran PG with an expiring deal... - Khoee_Reborn 2007-08-14 08:30:21 (107 views)

Let Tau Cermaica of the Euroleague buy him out for a case of Sangria - Garlicboy 2007-08-14 08:32:39 (116 views)

Yea, not complaining about the buyout numbers, it was a good deal - dsigns 2007-08-14 08:27:05 (121 views)

uh... those two intentions are not mutuallty exclusive. - gswfan4ever 2007-08-14 08:26:06 (113 views)

Foyle buyout was a great thing. There's nobody available worth trading for. - Garlicboy 2007-08-14 08:25:56 (112 views)

Nobody? In the whole NBA? - dsigns 2007-08-14 08:27:49 (108 views)

I'd love to have Oden, Durant, etc. No better AVAILBALE prospect than Biedrins at center. - Garlicboy 2007-08-14 08:30:43 (112 views)

Who said we need to trade for a center? - dsigns 2007-08-14 08:31:24 (104 views)

Okay, name an available PF or C besides JON... - Garlicboy 2007-08-14 08:35:56 (121 views)

Artest? AK? Rasheed? Who knows... - dsigns 2007-08-14 08:40:18 (104 views)

Utah would never give us AK, much like Detroit will never give us Rasheed - Garlicboy 2007-08-14 08:49:10 (109 views)

unless you get a worse deal in return... like Darius Miles - gswfan4ever 2007-08-14 08:28:25 (117 views)

You're off-base...the W's are trying to free up cap space for next year... - Khoee_Reborn 2007-08-14 08:25:36 (127 views)

Yep. Mullin finally has players that are worthy of big contracts (AB, Monta) plus - rick barry's rug 2007-08-14 08:32:09 (133 views)

Brandan Wright and Belinelli, 2 major talents from the draft. - Garlicboy 2007-08-14 08:37:32 (110 views)

Neither has played an NBA game. Let's wait til then to evaluate their talents - dsigns 2007-08-14 08:40:54 (120 views)

True, BW has not proved anything but Belinelli can definitely shoot! - Garlicboy 2007-08-14 08:52:48 (114 views)

LMAO...Baron will not get extended...I'm more certain about that than anything... - Khoee_Reborn 2007-08-14 08:35:31 (117 views)

Disagree unless we acquire another franchise player. No Baron, no playoffs. - rick barry's rug 2007-08-14 08:39:37 (107 views)

Yes, we resign Biedrins and Monta. There is no better center prospect than Biedrins. - Garlicboy 2007-08-14 08:27:57 (119 views)
