Baron Davis is incredibly talented. I don’t think Golden State’s style of play can produce a championship, but they were fun to watch.

Davis and coach Don Nelson were meant for one another. It’s a shame that politics had to get in the way of a great partnership.

I’ve never been a fan of Baron’s game, but he’s clearly at his best playing for Nellie in Golden State. I don’t think they would be anything more than a 7 or 8 seed even with Baron, but they certainly needed him just to remain in the hunt.

As for the Clippers, it was over when they failed to get Brand.

Both franchises are going backwards. As Barkley would say, what’s going on in Golden State is absolutely turrble. Just turrble.

I don’t think B. Diddy and Dunleavy can co-exist in LA.

I think the Warriors made a big mistake by letting Baron go.

It wasn’t as if there decision was a financial one. As Kawakami pointed out, they gave Baron’s contract to Maggette. Big mistake.

Great article. Loved the reasons section. Things are really messed up there in GS. The Clippers seem to be on the right track so far. After the Warriors’ Cinderella run in the 2007 playoffs, they were never able to keep that momentum going. GS needs to figure something out in the front office so that Nelson and the team can do their job.
