<摘要> According to sources, Fegan is selling Richardson as a franchise player, which would mean at least a $10 million starting price on an escalating deal. And Murphy is being compared to Carlos Boozer, who got a six-year, $68 million contract from Utah over the summer. 看来勇士队有一场钱斗了..... 消息来源: http://www.oaklandtribune.com/Stories/0,1413,82~10835~2448999,00.html Warriors Richardson, Murphy gone after this year? Both players would be restricted free agents if they don't get extensions By Dave Del Grande, STAFF WRITER Thirteen players went through two Mike Montgomery-led workouts Tuesday, wondering if this is the year the Golden State Warriors finally make the playoffs. Jason Richardson and Troy Murphy also practiced at UC San Diego in La Jolla, but they had something entirely different on their minds. They were wondering if this is their last year as a Warrior. Golden State's two first-round picks in 2001 will play out the final year of their Warriors contract this season unless either gets an extension before the Oct. 31 deadline. By league rule, 2001 first-round picks not signed to extensions by that date automatically become restricted free agents at season's end, opening the door for agent Dan Fegan -- yes, HIM again -- to explore other options next summer. Richardson, the Warriors' leading scorer last season at 18.7 points per game, and Murphy, a double-double machine (37 in 79 games) when he was healthy two years ago, are optimistic they'll get long-term commitments from Chris Mullin by the end of the month. "I'm hoping," said Murphy, who took the court Tuesday believing he was 100 percent cured of last year's foot and lung problems. "I want to be here, and I think they want to have me here." Neither Mullin nor Fegan would comment on the negotiations, the Warriors' boss acknowledging only that talks had begun. Richardson admitted he approached Mullin personally recently over concern with the current state of the discussions. "He told me he wanted to get it out of the way," Richardson said. The problem with re-signing either is it would kill just about any hope the Warriors entertain of being a major player in the free-agent market next summer. According to sources, Fegan is selling Richardson as a franchise player, which would mean at least a $10 million starting price on an escalating deal. And Murphy is being compared to Carlos Boozer, who got a six-year, $68 million contract from Utah over the summer. Signing either now would immediately count against the 2005-06 salary cap. But by waiting until next summer to do the deals, the Warriors could add a big-name free agent, then make long-term deals with their own guys. If they haven't already trashed the team and signed elsewhere -- remember Marc Jackson? -- that is. Richardson claims getting the money now isn't about achieving a comfort level. New deal or not, he expects Montgomery's more structured offensive approach to produce his biggest numbers yet. "I went through it last year ... have a good year, maybe get a good contract," he said. "I just don't want to go through it again this year." Murphy hopes the fact Mullin and his assistant, Rod Higgins, can relate with the pressures unsettled contract situations can put on players will help the deals get done. "The guys up there (Mullin and Higgins), they know what it's like being a player," he said. "I've been here three years. They know the kind of person and kind of player I am. "I'm optimistic. I really am. If the date comes and passes and nothing gets done? I don't know how that'll be." Well, it'll be like playing for the Los Angeles Clippers, who traditionally have allowed their young talents to become restricted free agents after their fourth seasons. Sometimes they've been able to get them back -- kicking and screaming in some cases. Other times, they've lost good players and gotten nothing in return. Mullin chose not to give Erick Dampier the big bucks over the summer. By opening night, Warriors fans will know where he stands with Richardson and Murphy -- 因为喜欢尼克 所以改型叫NYK 罗^^ http://www.wretch.twbbs.org/user/NYK 被叫去当拍照的MODEL 真爽^^ --
