Ronny Turiaf will be Golden State Warriors and Matt Barnes to Phoenix Suns

Golden State Warriors will increase its stake in the paint after the acquisition of Ronny Turiaf, until now owned by Los Angeles Lakers. A week ago the Warriors made him an offer that the Lakers did not match.

That would have allowed the Lakers to keep the player, since he was a restricted free agent, but he did not think needed. Next year fully recover Andrew Bynum, who has lost more than half a season.

However, just one day after presenting Ronny Turiaf (who will wear the number 21), Matt Barnes is leaving for Phoenix Suns, forward until now owned the franchise from Oakland. So the Warriors are going to seem a completely new team, with Corey Magette and Ronny Turiaf without Baron Davis and Matt Barnes. And Monta Ellis and Andris Biedrins have to renew yet.

Phoenix Suns takes a player who caught on a good performance in the 2006-07 season but that the latter did not do so well. His scoring dropped from 9.8 points to 6.7. The Suns are content to remember the great year of Matt Barnes and hope to recover their best level, as shown in the 2007 playoffs, those playoffs the Golden State eliminated the powerful Dallas Mavericks, who came to get 67 wins Regular League.

And George Deaver are difficult to return to Dallas Mavericks after the Texans have hired the center DeSagana Diop. Offers not short anyway at the eaves of nearly 31 years as Phoenix, San Antonio, Minnesota, Cleveland and New Orleans have been interested in him.
