Fri, 25 Jul 2008 14:33:40 +1900

Ray Ratto of the San Francisco Chronicle: "For the moment, though, Monta Ellis is the Warriors. He had to be, for there was no other foreseeable outcome once Baron Davis left." Tim Kawakami of the San Jose Mercury News: "I think Andris Biedrins' agent, Bill Duffy, is hoping and talking about Europe to get every dollar possible out of Mullin, and that's wise agenting.

Fri, 25 Jul 2008 20:52:36 +1900

Remember how we reported that Maurice Evans signed with the Warriors ? Yeah, scratch that, it never happened.

As it turns out, it was a wise move for Evans: he just agreed to a three-year, $7.5 million ...

The 25-year-old adds another needed shooter to the depth chart, which Donnie Walsh was hoping to add. To say he'll be a rotation player is a stretch at this point but it does create a little more competition for minutes in the Knicks backcourt, which already has Jamal Crawford, Chris Duhon, Nate Robinson, Mardy Collins and, yes, Stephon Marbury.
