What Will Chris Mullin Do with Golden State and 10 Players in Free Agency?

The Golden State Warriors have ten players on their roster in free agency this year, leaving them with many decisions.

Who should stay and who should go? 

The Warriors are going to keep restricted free agents Monta Ellis and Andris Biedrins.  They wouldn't have gotten rid of Jason Richardson last year if they were planning on losing either.

I also believe Kelenna Azubuike will stay with the team.

Same goes for CJ Watson who has shown that he can be a back up guard in this league. 

But now things get tricky.

Unrestricted free agents include Austin Croshere (who I am a big fan of), Matt Barnes, Patrick O'Bryant, Mickael Pietrus and, if he decides to opt out of his contract, Baron Davis. 

Monta is not ready to be the leader of the team.  Golden State needs to keep Baron Davis. 

I believe with the system they run they have to have Davis on the team to compete. 

He is a big physical guard who can guard the 1,2 and 3 positions. 

The Warriors outscore their competition in large part because Davis is the highest scoring point guard in the league.

He is also one of the best defenders on the team.
