  Indeed Dewey.
  
  And Don't trip BD. Obviously the front office didn't take care of business, so you had to do it yourself. Regardless, you will be sorely missed. The poor management of Warrior's team for more then 12 years is a real loss for Bay Area sports fans.

  Baron, Monta can't do without you. W's management woudln't give you a longer deal, but d00d, you effed us over good. It's like a member of the family died. The least you can do is run a full page ad and thank the fans for their support before the start of the season.

when Brand signs, either he or you will have to take less $ since the W's offered the max deal to EB. Clips have no bench either since they have to clean caproom now. Both of you will have to go 40 a night to sniff the playoffs. I'm betting you guys dont even make the playoffs. Lakers own LA and always will.. go be a movie star. You have a better chance doing that than ever wnning in LA. Go Lakers!!!!!

You made a sound business decision when you signed for 5 years and 65 MILLION DOLLARS.

If fans want to be upset with anyone they should be upset with the Warriors front office who low-balled you on the contract offer.

Hey Boom i dont see you making to many comments on here so I dont know if you even read this. First of all though congrats on that new contract. It is about time you get the respect you deserve and who better than the hometown Clipps. Serioiusly though, what is wrong with the Warriors? They just continue to be boneheads and let players get away. Chris Mullin is an arrogant _ss. HIs hoop game was completely overatted all he could do was knock down spot up jumpers that someone else created for him. You clearly stated that you wanted to remain in the Bay, so all Mully had to do was find a way to make that happen. Just give my man Baron a decent extension with some years on it. Say 5year 65mill. That seems fair. I know this was going to be a tough off season in GS with alot of expiring contracts. I know Monta has to get paid because that boy has some game, but clearly something could have been worked out on GS side. I saw that ridiculous offer to Agent0, Mully you have to be out of your head. How can you offer a garbage PG 100mill, but you cant put something respectable on the table for the player who restored your franchise. BOOM you made the Oracle electrical, that was one of the most exciting teams in NBA history. Dont worry Golden State is once again screwing things up. I saw that desperate attempt for Brand. How can they throw out that kind of offer for a player who doesnt even fit into Nellys system. I sure they will let Monta get away and then things will be realllybe jacked up.The Clippers are the team now. I am following Boom Dizzle over to LA. No more trips from Chicago to Oakland for me. I am going to be staying in Orange County and driving up the coast to the Staples to watch you get a ring. I am no longer GSTATE5 on yardbarker. Iam officially now CLIPPER5. Once again congrats. Keep on getting in that gym and working on your game.

      I am not saying Baron was out there all by himself, but come on if you watch the Warriors you know he is the backbone of this team. Of course there is some other talent on the roster. Monta is going to be great and Stack Jack finally found a system that he can excell in. Baron is the one who makes that engine go though. Look at the numbers and the things he did in that playoff run. Absolutely unreal on the big stage. Just a reminder where was Monta Ellis in that postseason. The reason I keep saying GS is because I am talkiing bout the front office. Surely you have to realize something is wrong there. Is Gilbert Arenas twice the player as BOOM? Elton and Baron are both the same age and Elton is coming off of an injury, but he is a 100 million guy. Baron was not even asking for that kind of money. Clearly he was not in the Warriors plans. So everybody needs to chill. BOOM is not the one who is unloyal it was the Warriors.

Boom, you do realize if Falk has Brand ask the Clips to match the Warriors offer they can't sign you for more than about 7- 8Mil per year. He has to lose his bird rights and can only sign for 5 years max by opting out which means the Clips can't offer anything close to the Warriors offer if they keep your offer where it is. By the way, Brand is with Falk now from what I heard.. I'm sure David is ok with him taking $15-20 million less to sign with the Clippers , haha... Hello!!!

  Elton Brand opted out, hes not a restricted free agent. which means the clippers dont have to match the offer, they can offer whatever they want and its EB's choice.
  - Maximus replied July 03, 2008
    
    correct, he's not restricted but they hav a cap that is at 30M right now with 5 players and they still need other players to fill the roster. So this is EB's shot at making his biggest payday and he has to take about $20Mil less for Baron to sign with a team that is a borderline playoff team? I'm certain David falk is looking the other way while his client signs for around $20 Mil less. EB is a fool if he walks aay from that much money, especially afetr coming off achilles surgery. He can't pick up the endorsements to make up for it as this is BDiddy's team now. The entire thing is a mess. you'll see in the next week. EB is the loser in this if he doesnt take the Warriors offer

  Dude, loyalty and business is a two way street and often the lines are blurred. I believe Baron genuinely wanted to make something happen with the Warriors. But, we don't know what happen behind those close doors. Often a company will only bring up the word loyalty at their convenience. When they want to screw you over and convince you that you like it. Then will turn around and call it business, when they shop and trade your butt. To free up cap space, for two years from now. I like BoomDizzle's game. I can care less what team he plays for. I say be happy and don't be nobody's fool..... Business is business. You can show me love , by the way you pay me.
  - GSWfanFROMday1 replied July 03, 2008
    
    im not mad he made the decision he made, im mad at the way he made it. yes i know its a business, but dont go and say your going to do something to all your loyal fans that your not going to do. besides, he didnt even want to hear anything the warriors had to say by how fast he made an agreement with the clips. if it was really a business decision then he would have atleast entertained more offers. but as you mentioned, we dont know what happens behind closed doors did they make him an offer? was there an under the table offer to go home? what was he thinking after the season ended? did he already know he was leaving the bay? we dont know and never will. all we know is that he left without a 2nd thought and left the W's hanging.

      How come everyone is a Baron hater now. Yeah the front office didnt make the decision to opt out, but they sure didnt offer any kind of extension. They would rather pay double for Gilbert Arenas that is real smart. He doesnt have any injury problems either. What was the man supposed to do? nobody showed him any respect.
speedwell said July 03, 2008

I gotta say, the Dubs made a big mistake not offering BD a multiyear contract. There is no replacement for the excitement he brought these past couple years. Heck, I saw 12 games in person this year, and some of them were the most exciting that I've ever seen. Comebacks from 30 point deficits, wins over championship contenders and so on. That being said, BD might not be worth a 5-year contract. Injury prone, 40% shooter. When BD is forcing his shot, he builds a brick house. Then again, Gilbert Arenas sure as hell ain't worth $100 mil over 5 either.

- Rickro replied July 03, 2008
  
  Of all the heartfelt and misinformed attempts to make sense of Baron's decision; yours says like it is. Let the Clippers make the boneheaded decision to take Davis. He lucked out playing a whole season uninjured, and the Warriors did well not risking their future on his shaky health history. While many people fell in love with Davis because of his flair for the dramatic, most gave him a free pass on his weak free throw shooting (timely misses!), clanking 3 pointer after 3 pointer off NBA rims, and his turn around fade away (I'm not Jordan) jumper. Serious observers of the game know what I'm talking about. This isn't about LOVE nor HATE, as Baron has just showed us it's about taking care of yourself and business; therefore, my assessment is the Warriors made an excellent decision not keeping Davis!
  - gaucho replied July 03, 2008
    
    time will tell. but don't be surprised when the warriors are not a playoff contender for at least a year or two, maybe longer. you can point out flaws on anyone but bottom line is he was the heart of the best the warriors have had to offer in years. if you want to really look at history look at what the warriors have done under the cohan regime. if that gives you confidence that they're heading down the right path fantastic. if your lucked out logic is accurate then the warriors have lucked out too and will be back where they have proven themselves to belong under cohan
    - speedwell replied July 03, 2008
      
      I never said the Dubs are better off without BD. He was the heart and soul of this team the last 3 years. The fun factor of their games is going to fall a few notches without him. I would not bet on them to make the playoffs this year unless Monta gets a 3-point shot, distributes better and some of their other players like Azibuke and Wright develop fast.
    - Rickro replied July 07, 2008
      
      Why is it that people use regime to describe something they don't like when in fact it's the ownership of Cohan? Regime seems to always be equated to something terrible? A little history lesson: Dan Finnane & Jim Fitzgerald hood winked Cohan into nearly sueing them in order to honor a verbal agreement to sell Cohan the GSW. So, as far as committment, Cohan has shown the Warriors his loyalty; not only investing tons of dollars, and losing plenty, too; but, trying to make the Warriors better even as he was handed the Chris Webber fiasco. Heart? Oh, do you mean when the Warriors started 1-6 with Baron playing every game? Heart is Stephen Jackson. I don't need to recount what happened when Jackson returned. Even everyone's heart & soul (Davis) couldn't lift the Warriors out of a 1-6 start, and essentially a playoff hole they would never dig out of the entire season.

I'm going to miss Baron and definitely feel like he made the best business decision for himself. Any anger I have is with the Warriors. They really have poor business practices, as they have proved year after year. They should have been prepared with contingency plans in case Baron opted out and its ridiculous to offer EB a better offer than they made Baron. EB is about the same age and is coming off a serious injury. Why would they make such a huge offer?! We need a point guard, not a forward. They should have given Baron a counter-offer or scrapped the whole thing and prepared to re-build a young team. I am really gonna miss Baron!

gswarriors08 said July 03, 2008

On Friday, he was on KNBR saying how he was excited to come back and finish off his contract out of "loyalty"...take B's word with a grain of salt i guess.

Anyways Warrior fans (true Warrior fans), keep ya heads up, I'm sure Nellie and Mully have somethin up their sleeve, if not this is gonna be a developmental year for our young guns, and we're gonna have $20 mil for the 2009 free agents (thats worst case scenario).

If he doesn't want to be here, then its best he go, lets focus on rebuilding our team, a team with a rejuvenated fan base and style of basketball. What most people don't understand is the "run and gun" style of basketball that has been so successful, especially for Baron only works with the proper pieces in place (i.e. Nellie, Jax, Monta, Biedrins, etc). It doesn't work when you have a half-court offense (Dunleavy). Also, Baron excelled because the floor was spaced by excellent perimeter shooters and threats...The Clippers have Mobley (hardly a legit 3 point threat), Al Thorton (can't shoot), Chris Kaman (too slow), and Shuan (who is lucky to be walking if anything)...hardly comparable to the Warriors shooting ability and offensive talent. But, should be interesting to see what develops...

Notice I didn't mention Elton Brand, thats because hes pondering a $100 mil 5 year deal...theres a guy who wants a ring on his finger...make the right choice EB, and come to the Bay Area, we're young, we're coached well, we're loyal (unless you dick us over). Mad respect.

Elton Brand has been saying all along he has every intention of staying in LA and opted out in order to give the Clippers payroll flexibility. So when it comes to Elton Brand, going back on your word is the "right" choice?

Just like J-Rich is a "forever Warrior" I feel the same about you. I am still shocked and devastated that you are actually gone. No idea what we will do now, guess it's back to square one if we can't sign anyone decent to take your place. Anyways, best of luck in LA.

Damn i dont wanna hate on u, but im just upset with u because it just doesnt seem fair to let us in on this NOW... after we hear it from other places!
ugh... im effin ready to throw down a crap load of money to keep u here! I mean if its happiness u were looking for and u found it back in LA then im all for it cuz its hard to find that.. but were we really that bad to be around that u werent happy here?
anyways baron, play the game.. dont be a sellout like everyone thinks ur gonna be... just keep those true colors plz.
We all care and we miss u sooooo much that were angry. Its hard not to get mad about the way u handled the situation but we all love and support u deep down in our hearts. we cant always be in the same place forever right? we gotta move on someday to something thats gonna keep us off the streets and with bread on the table.

I'm not mad at your decision but I am disappointed in how you continuously said you wanted to be in the Bay and love the Warriors fans, yet immediately after the trade exception expires you go and agree with the Clippers. You knew what you were going to do even before the draft and that is how you screwed us over. And just know that you won't get the same love that J-Rich gets when he comes back to Oakland. We supported you from day one when NO OTHER TEAM would. I do thank you for the 2 1/2 years you played here and the playoff run was great. But 2 1/2 years doesn't make you a "Warrior For Life". Have fun playing second fiddle to the Lakers.
And you Clipper fans - Don Nelson said for 2 years the team MVP was BD. He always defended him, always gave him chances. But for whatever reason he held him out of the entire 2nd half vs. the Suns last year when making a playoff chase. Good luck with the baggage. Nelson is more of a player's coach than Dunleavy ever will be. No way Dunleavy coaches BD. It will be ugly.

    are they tryin to slap baron in the face for what he did cuz thats not right either.
    
    also baron played through his knee injuries... damn im annoyed with this kinda now,.... tryin to slowly get over it...
    - BayAreaFan replied July 03, 2008
      
      baron hasn't played a whole season since the 01-02 season. His knee is pretty messed up. Except for 3 years, Brand has played over 70 games every season. Treatment for a ruptured achilles generally very effective. Also signing or at least offering is just a big EFF U from the GSW to the Clipps. If they want to sign both Baron and Brand. They are going to have to go over luxury tax now unless Brand is willing to take 20 million dollars less from the Clipps or whatever they up their offer to. Most people would probably take the 20 mill unless you are truly loyal to an organization like Baron never will be (Hornets, Dubs). Baron is a punk. Sign and trade and fuggen steal one of their players

There is absolutely no problem with taking less money so you can be near family.
I would normally commend this choice.

HOWEVER, the way you chose to do it was very classless.
Waiting until the last minute to opt out, after the draft had already passed and the mid-level trade exception had expired all while assuring nellie and mully that you were not going to opt out is pure garbage.

I went to UCLA with you and love the Warriors. I would have continued to root for you even if you went to our biggest rivals. But you make it so hard the way you went about things.
I feel more betrayed than anything. In many ways, the way this situation has unfolded is a million times worse than the Webber situation.

Good luck with the Clippers. Go Warriors!

If you wanted to stay in the Bay Area, you would've stayed. simple as that. But i guess I understand people a little better when they try to get they want. and you didnt want to stay here and to be around the people that loved you.

we understand your reasons for leaving- family, home, film career, a guaranteed 65 mil... i think it's safe to say that most of us would agree that those are all good reasons for leaving. but like what a couple of people have already mentioned, it's how you did it that makes the fans feel like sh*t. don't tell us that you aren't going to opt out, the bay is home, and the fans mean so much to you and then turn around and say how you couldn't be happier as a clipper. you are hollywood-hella fake.
you'll be missed for sure, but if you don't need the bay, we for damn sure don't need you.

Lastly, if you had felt "soooooooo grateful" to The Warriors and The Bay for salvaging a career that was on the rocks, you would have at least allowed The Wariors to trade you for something in return. I remember seeing a feature done on you at x-mas time with The Warriors and you talked about creating a list of things that you wanted your friends to give you. I thought it was odd that you would do that, especially when the items that you wanted you could easily purchase on your salary. It was then that I gleaned an insight into the level of your vanity and greed. What a piece of work.

If I found a job that would pay me a lot more you best believe I'd leave too. You made the Warriors matter again, and for that I'm thankful. When you come back to the Bay to play the dubs there's no way that I can possibly boo you....why should I? You helped the dubs back to the playoffs....I wish you good luck in LA, except of course when you play the dubs. Say "Hi" to Jessica Alba for me!!! LOL!!!

What kind of lesson could Baron really have taught? He "could" have chosen a course of action that was about completion, loyalty, the manifestation of excellence and pride in finishing what one starts. Instead, he "opted out" for low hanging fruit, while turning his back on a job that would have taken "committment" to finish. Moral of the story; "he quit."

JClr182 said July 03, 2008

Baron, as a long time Warriors fan, I feel betrayed. You said in one of your last blogs in May, "I want to be in the Bay!" For a team to bring you in and help boost your career, then opt out AFTER the draft and AFTER Nellie said he's going to come back partially for Baron, its like a kick in the face. I understand you want to win, but maybe you should have reconsidered the potential with the Warriors. You saw it in 2007. I'm a little mad as you can tell, but even worse, everyone in the Bay is disappointed.

Why is he having to teach lessons? He is a grown man ,who I'm sure in his mind, took the correct "course of action". Maybe he knows a little better than anyone else where that manifestation will occur. Perhaps B.D. sees L.A. as an oppurtunity. I bet he has a better insight than anybody else.

SlamDharma said July 03, 2008

You know, you might be right. I'm just offering up my perspective. We all have to follow our inner dictates, sometimes at great peril to our reputation and the world will not be as supportive as we would like it. This is in a larger degree what the message of Jesus is based upon. That said, Davis has not demonstrated to me any quality that even remotely resembles a form of mastery. When Byron Scott tried to reign him in for the betterment of the team, he pouted and management chose Scott over Davis. Their reward? Chris Paul who is more than willing to carry out Scott's gameplan to perfection.

Davis quit on Monty, feigning injury or at the very least, not playing through pain. Management chose Davis over Monty and even thouugh I didn't agree with his metod, they made the right choice because Monty was not fit for the pro game.

Then Nelson sits him and voila, he's gone again.

There's a pattern here and one that reflects someone that runs from challenges and chafes when he is given direction.

If Davis had acheived a level of mastery in GS, which included getting out of the first round of the playoffs, I'd look at his choice as being the outgrowth of having dug deep and extracted everything he could from himself and the situation, but in many cases when I watched him get owned by Chris Paul, Brandon Roy and Deron Williams, he shut it down, fouled out and sulked.

Just my feeling, but I think he's doing the same here.

Mission unaccomplished.

You had a hell of a year last year, 82 games, contract year, ring a bell?Your first 82 game season since 01-02. Im pretty pissed that you left but really I dont blame you. Chances are you will play 60 games next season and that would have been like us throwing away 17.8 million. You brought bay area basketball back and I love you for that. But 5 years is a bit too long to invest in a point guard that has leg problems and skips multiple games at a time, that wouldnt be a good move by management. sucks about the 10 mill trade exception, thats where you truely fucked us. Have fun in LA, I hear brand is coming to play for us, a trade we would have surely made!

DubFanSince84 said July 03, 2008

Baron, I respect and am grateful for all you did for the Dubs in your short time in the Bay. As non-bandwagon fan, which I blame you for the abundance of band-wagoners these days (as they were no where to be found during the days when Jim Jackson was the "offense"), I can say there was not a more exciting moment in my life than watching the Dubs make the post season and then beat the Mavs since Christmas morning when I was 5 years old. So for that I thank you. I totally understand why you left and can't hate on your reasoning, you need to think long term. That being said...
The way you left was classless. I couldn't have lost more respect for you. Don't be telling the media and the coach you intend to stay a warrior and stab us all in the back at the last minute by opting out. You can't possibly have love for the Bay and the fans. You could of just as easily told the media you wanted to stay in the bay but needed to get an extension, instead of completely backstabbing the organization. Your move royally screwed the Dubs out of the trade exception. You know nothing of loyalty you spoke of on KNBR and have no business in the Bay Area. LA and the land of two faces should suit you well. So as I wish you best of luck and success in the future understand I say it with the same loyalty you showed us. I will LMAO if Brand signs with the Warriors... but also cuss loudly because that is a retarded move for the Warriors at that price. Monta for President, Baron can lick my b*lls.

It's one thing to opt out, we can handle that. If you had insisted all along that you would opt out, or if you didn't flat out state that you wouldn't opt out, then we would have wished you good luck in LA. But it's a completely different thing to wait till after the draft, after the trade exception expires, after the Warriors can do ANYTHING to prepare for your departure...and THEN insist that you're leaving. I expected better from you, Baron, and I've lost all respect for you. I know this is a business, and you had a legal right to do what you did. But even businesses have ethical codes, and you violated every code in the book. Lying to the media and the fans is fine (I'll admit, I'd still be mad, but whatever). But to lie to your own teammates and front office, that's just classless. A few people still love you in the Bay, but I'm almost positive that you'll be showered with mostly boos when you return to Oracle next year. Have fun making your movies, believe me, no one will watch them. Have fun ballin' it with Brand, you'll have fun until one of you gets injured by the All-Star break. At which point, we'll see you at the draft lottery.
And by the way, if Brand DOES return to the Clips...you should learn a lesson from him. Loyalty > $$$. And if he doesn't come back, karma's a boomerang, buddy.

I agree with Annt74. There has been a lot of B.D. bashing, and regardless of what a GS fan feels like what they think was his best decision and that he backstabbed them, the decision was made by B.D. and obviously the front office felt like he was not worth a long term agreement. To me, the question is not why wouldn't he stay, but why would he.

were just smarter to not say some of the stupidest things like everyone else.
the true friends have chosen not to follow the haterade bandwagon and back up baron, even thou we DONT AGREE that what he did was the right thing, but we are behind him for WHAT he did for the bay.
i mean geez how can i explain it more to ppl who arent real fans ANYMORE. the ppl that decided to get upset at barons DECISION of leaving are giving him one rude hell of a time, and suddenly everyone jumped on the wagon to start hating too.
No one realizes that we STILL HAVE A WHOLE TEAM LEFT.... why we still focusing on baron...?
If youv turned on baron and are now cussing the life outta him, make peace with this and move on, if ur upset with his DECISION fine be upset, but why stoop so low to praising him in all that he did and then changing what u said at the end...
and i dont wanna get replies saying that what he did was wrong... OMG WE GET IT... dont u alllll get it by now!? why u gotta keep repeating everything. its all the same stuff only worded differently.
stop bashing the fans who do support him. whats the problem.
we aint all gonna like him at this point, so get on with ur life if ur pissed off and made ur point. what are you trying to prove to him.. that u can get him to just ignore what u say? that hes grateful for his fans and then they go and write pages of horrible insults about him and his choice. shady way of doing it but in this sport, if u wanna get somewhere u do what it takes, and yea it sucks what he did but its a choice of survival, survival in the bball world and in life, u think someone whos poor is gonna be able to live out in LA ? or even the bay? no. it was a choice not a personal bash on the bay.
you guys are the ones that stabbed him in the back after those things u said.
he lied to us, and thats f'd up, but the things he did for the bay area... the kids.. no one else has done or would of done...

wanna let all u haters know that i was never a bandwagon fan... i didnt know who the warriors were til the pre-season games came in september, and i found out about the warriors because i met one of the dancers @ the old gym i used to work at. and i started talking to her and what she did and she told me she danced for the warriors, and i told her my brother was a huge fan of the warriors (saw him wearing a tshirt with the warriors on them on facebook in august and remembered)
so she told me how i could get free pre-season tickets.
i went to my first ever basketball game with 3 friends.
i was in awe. the minute i saw the court, the players, the ppl i fell inlove. and most importantly i fell in love with the team. The team who i believed i had a connection with. Who had conviction and drive, just like i did when i swam. Who loved the feeling of hard work after a tiring workout, who had the passion in their eyes for basketball.. especially Baron along with all of their outside work.
Considering the location of the team, they have done nothing but do good deeds for the bay to keep us going strong and not giving up on the things that keep us happy in life especially for the younger kids in troubled neighborhoods.
iI love my warriors, i love baron, they changed my life in so many ways im not even gonna START to tell u ppl cuz it wont do a damn thing to ur ungrateful minds.
You cant find happiness in everything but when u do find it, it means everything. and i found the warriors which made happier than iv ever been.
If baron is happiest in his home town, then who are we to take that away from him. Money aint gonna make no body happy... maybe for a while, and get u whatever u want if u have enough of it.. but money cant buy u happiness, thats why baron went back home.. cuz maybe hes happy out here and he loves it... but hes not the happiest out here.. money is just something u have something u need to help you get by in life. its not gonna make u happy.

What has happened to our warrior nation? the best fans in the nation?
--sigh--

Peacing out now.
Best of luck in WHATEVER happens Baron. WIn or lose on whatever team u on B, thanks for taking time out of ur LIFE to help make a difference in the Bay.

BD, thanks for helping bring the GSW back to respectability. It was fun while it lasted. I cant blame you for going home but it would have been nice to have known you were going to opt out so we could have used trade exception. Good luck...

I have mixed emotions about you Baron. I know Im gonna miss watchin you in a Warriors uniform. I have been a die hard warrior fan since the day of birth and I must admit that you probably gave me the best warrior moment memories. You're a great player and can be the most dominant when you want to be and I still believe in you. I know I have been talkin sh*t about you in other comments but I was devastated at the time. I now realize that Chris Mullin didnt do his job in gettin you to come back cause if they can offer Arenas and Brand that much money then they could've offered you your 65 Million. But damn you couldnt take a small pay cut so that you can play with Monta and Bierdrins? Just do me a favor and work on your perimeter defense cause when you come back to the bay against the warriors MONTA IS GONNA TEAR YOU UP. Be safe have good season.

i cant believe the way u guys are treating him... geez.. its his decision.. its the front offices fault for letting him go... so maybe u guys should yell and cuss at the front office. Hes thanking u guys for wta uve done for him... but all u can say is that he baskstabbed u??? Im sorry im not a Warriors fan.. so i didnt watch BD play until the two weeks leading up to the end of reg season.... im a Celtics fan, so u mite prolly automatically dismiss me.. but im worried about one guy who mite leave, James Posey.. but if he did.. u wont find me cussin and getting mad that he left... they choose wat they feel is best for their careers.. thats all.. so u guys should be appreciative for wat hes brought for this city....

  What Posey meant to the Celtics does not equate to what Davis meant the Warriors. Baron is a punk. Kept saying he wouldn't opt out. At least have the decency to tell us that you were going to opt out so we could use the TPE or draft differently. He had an under-the-table deal with the clips. Hope Brand signs with the Dubs so you can team up with the unstoppable Kaman. You hurt every organization you have joined. Im just glad Hornets are coming up again.

Clippers? I thought L.A.'s team was the Lakers. Is there a CBA team there too? I guess you're just tired of playing in the NBA. As far as eventually stabbing Clippers fans in the back . . . he'll have to find some first.
I guess the W's think multi-year contracts should be reserved for people who have actual cartilage left in their joints.

It sucks that he's leaving, but you shouldn't be mad a BD. He got us back to the playoffs and gave us some great moments. Good luck to him. Except when he plays the Ws.

Remember he wanted to be a Warrior before signing elsewhere. Good luck Baron, thanks for the excitement and memories...

amhd388 said July 03, 2008

I am goin to try to be as impartial as possible, which is tough cuz i've been bd's fan ever since he was at ucla and a warriors fan for as long as i can remember. obviously, i go to ucla and live in the bay...

anyways, i don't understand how any of you feel betrayed by baron. if you're a true fan, you would've seen this coming since the early end to our season. The warriors don't own b.d. Imagine rebounding from a potentially career ending injury, consistently playing at an all-star level (without getting any all star recognition from the league's money loving ...), reviving the warriors franchise, and putting on one the most solid and the most exciting pg performances in recent NBA memory. Not too mention showing young players like biedrins and monta the demands and expectations of a star in this league. But despite all of this, you'd still be doubted that you had much more in you.

i genuinely believe that baron did want to stay on the warriors, why wouldn't he? With him plus cash they got a great future. But warriors execs (mullin) just couln't trust him to keep it up. They couldn't see him in their fairy tale, excuse me for thinking so, future of wright, randolph, biedrins, and monta. Would you play for a team that would wanna bounce you in 2009 or underpay you for a measly 2 seasons, then be stuck having to find a new joke contract with a new team that doesn't really respect you as a finish to an amazing nba career?

No, you go to a team that you could make an impact on now while you're playing at your fullest potential, be loved, and continue to be loved. He'll probably finish his career with the clippers, too.

Remember j. rich's 42 point game versus the dubs with only 7 of those pts being free throws? I saw a jaded player who still wanted to play for his team. i just hope baron doesn't surpass that performance for the warriors' sake.

-also this wasn't unbiased at all, in fact it was extremely subjective. sorry, couldn't help it.
-----and baron i hope you have an excellent, healthy, and long career with the clippers....seriously eff all you ***holes who said something to the effect "i hope your injuries get worse and you never play a full season again"...have some respect, this a real person, not just an icon.
-and to all you warrior fans, let's pray, we gotta rocky future up ahead.

BoomDizzle, congratulations on your move to Los Angeles. When players of your caliber ditch a franchise and upset all its fans, I'm normally bitter to them, so if I seem that way, don't be offended. Yes, you ditched Golden State. Yes, you ditched New Orleans. Yes, it was always all about the money. In the end, I think karma will come back to get you. I truly do wish you the best of luck, but I don't see your fortunes changing because you went all HollyBoom on us. Good luck on your quest for a Championship. You'll need it.

benbrung said July 03, 2008

amhd, just like it's not Baron's responsibility to stay if it's not in his best interests, it's not the Ws responsibility to wager the future of a young team in order to show some "respect" for Baron. The Ws took a bit of a chance when they brought him here and maybe they are done pushing their luck. Who knows, maybe he does have 5 more great years in him but it would be a shame to be tied to a long-term contract if he's done after 2 and be mired in mediocrity with no possibility of signing a player who can take them to the next level (probably a big forward).

Baron was compensated for the time he spent with the Ws, he doesn't need to be compensated into the future for his past accomplishments if he is not on the Ws priority list. Management and athletes alike have encouraged treating sports as business making loyalty a distant memory. Certainly the Ws wanted it both ways and were hoping that Baron wouldn't walk away from 18m, however, if the alternative was a 5-year contract I bet they see this as their 2nd best option.

I agree that no one should be wishing injury on anyone but I can't say I blame the Ws for rolling the dice to try to get farther than the second round.

Warriors fan of many, many years. Very disappointed to see Mr. Davis leaving the Bay. Welcomed my first baby into the world during last season and (thanks to family leave) got to watch every game. What a treat to see the Warriors play so well. I was truly looking forward to next season. Now I am left with questions. Have all the loyalties in sports dissolved? If a player loves an area and fans so much, wouldn't the player stay in the area and play? Is $17.9 not enough?
I was angry when Mr. Davis was snubbed by the "all star" voters as well as the olympic selection committee.
Clippers fans will enjoy Mr. Davis' strength and fearless play inside. They will also enjoy how he makes other players on the floor that much better. Warriors fans (this one included) are left scratching their heads.
If Mr. Davis happens to read this post, I hope he understands that he has let me (and many bay area fans) down. Life goes on. Enjoy.
With sincerity,
Shane

Hey Baron. Why are you leaving the Warriors? It was because of you that I was able to average almost 10 points. Now that you're leaving, I'm going to be averaging less than 10 boards because I wont be able to rebound you 7 pull up 3 pointers and your step back jumpers that go "clink in the night". But it's ok. I believe CJ Watson would be able to give me the rock more when you guys decide to stop launching 3s. Cya Baron.

Hey Baron! Its me Goose. Biedrins. Dre. You know that number 15 center you started to ignore under the rim towards the end of the season? Well thanks for helping me average almost 10 boards because I was able to rebound your missed 7 3 pointers per game and rebound your step back jumpers that go clank. Oh yea thanks for helping me get defensive boards when you don't close out on shooters and give them open lanes to the basket. Sorry I was unable to rebound the missed layup against the Twolves when you choked, I thought Slim Al got it. Well I will be seeing you in LA Baron.

It must be good to be home Boom, huh! The Bay's gonna miss u, but both parties will be better off. BTW, classy way of saying thanks to the fans of this area. Now with the extra cap room, who do you think the Warriors should get to make it back to the playoffs and past the 2nd rd? I'm thinking Josh Smith would give the kind of presence in the paint the Warriors have been missing. If that happens, the Bay will thank you back for allowing the cap room to be freed to get the missing piece. "Sometimes one must take a step back to move forward."

Good luck with the Clippers and thanks for the memories, esp the dunk over AK-47.

Yo Baron, all these haters are trippin'! Don't get me wrong I'm a Warrior fan for life, but anyone who's done their research and has an objective mind can see that the Warrior's front office screwed this one up big time, yet again. I mean, you made it pretty clear you wanted to secure an extended contract and stay. In a league and a world were it's all about the money, you did what you had to do best your situation. Unfortunately for us fans in the Bay we have to sit by a fickle administration and hope for a miracle because of it. Regardless, best of luck next year man, stay healthy, and get yours.

thanks a lot for all those memories.thanks for that dunk over karilinko.thanks for that biggest upset in nba history,thanks for ressurecting a team and there fans in a city were winning hadnt been there for a wile, thanks for being a big part,if not the biggest,of the warrios making playoffs after those 12-13 years.but also thanks for reminding us that us average joes have more love for the game than u pros. its funny to think that theres always going to be that one player thats diffrent and wouldnt mind a lil pay cut because to the fans he is there ultimate idol.he does the impossible and he is wat everyone want to be.from buying ur number 5 jersey to going to the nearest basketball court by our house and counting out loud:"3, 2,1 baron step bak three! its in warriors are the champions".well baron wat im really trying to say is thanks for being a sell out.

ur EX fan,

Hey B Your boy Elton looks to be leaving you with a shitty Clippers squad... In my opinion your still welcome in the bay B! Sign you to a 3 yr 30 mil contract, you down?

Suck It Baron LMAO. Guess Brand ain't ur boy at all. Its cool tho, I heard Kaman is gonna be a force this year. Have fun being in LA making your movies. You should make one about the epic fail that just occurred.

hahaah I just read that post on Brand goin to Philly sorry im late on it but damn Baron. You are stuck with a super wack squad. You better hope you guys sign Josh Smith before the Warriors do hahaha. Good luck on makin it back to the playoffs before your five year contract ends. I wouldnt be surprised if you flaked on the Clippers and just resigned with the Warriors cause thats just the type of player you are. hahahaha
