Golden State will send Dan Gadzuric and Brandan Wright to New Jersey for Troy Murphy and a 2012 second round pick. Murphy is expected to be bought out by the Warriors and he would then become a free agent after clearing waivers. When he is bought out, the Magic, Mavericks, Heat and Celtics will be interested, according to sources. ViaAdrian Wojnarowski/Yahoo!

The Truth Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 man, I still remember Golden State trading the fan favorite Jason Richardson to Charlotte for Wright. now they're dumping the kid for a second round pick. tough break. injuries have really plagued his career.

Flash Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Orlando seems like the front runner for him, but it would be interesting to see him wind up in Miami. I'd rather go get another big body at center. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather go get another big body at center. Murphy is 6'11. Murphy would probably be a center on the Heat considering their lack of size or depth at the 5.

NomarFachix Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 But he plays no defense, which defeats the purpose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finch23 Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Man I'd like Murphy on the Spurs instead of Bonner... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Swish* Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Troy Murphy used to be a terrific player with the Indiana Pacers but lost his trade value moving to new Jersey where he sucked so not surprised the Nets want to trade him for such bad talent. Gadzuric and Brandon Wright aren't good players compared to Murphy so I think the Warriors would really benefit from this trade especially since they also get a pick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
