There’s a connection between Myers and Roy; Myers used to be Roy’s agent. “It’s a possibility,” Myers answered, when asked if the Warriors would have interest in Roy. “He’s an easy phone call to make.” The Warriors have Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson in their backcourt, but Myers has said frequently over the past months that the team needs to get more veteran experience. Assuming Roy can still play, he would fit the bill there. CSNBayArea.com

Bob Myers: "“I told (Roy) when he was amnesty-ed … ‘I hope this isn’t it for you. Make sure this isn’t it. He’s said publicly he wants to come back, so I’ll start to talk to him. It depends how everything goes for us and what his expectations are and all of that. But absolutely I’ll talk to him.” CSNBayArea.com

Warriors general manager Bob Myers on Friday made his most definite comment ever on swingman Brandon Rush. "We have a restricted free agent who we really like, and who we're going to keep." In other words, opposing teams need not sign an offer sheet with Rush. The Warriors are matching any offer. Sulia

Warriors GM Bob Myers said he had trade discussions about moving up from No. 7 as recently as Thursday and joked during a one-hour group interview with local media that were making him miss out on potential deals. "We’ve showed that we’re not afraid to move if we like what’s presented. We’re open to moving the pick and we’re open to keeping the pick. ... I’m not trying to be equivocal in my answer, but that’s where we are. It’s uncertain right now." Sulia

A prospect walks into a small hotel room, a room that has had the bed removed in favor of a round table and offers Walgreens-purchased water as the only refreshments. The prospect sees two headboards on the wall, but no beds. He sees a table, half glasses of water and eight people (Jerry West, Bob Myers, Travis Schlenk, Kirk Lacob, Mark Jackson, Larry Riley, Larry Harris and Speedy Claxton) ready to interrogate.

The Warriors are trying to get a feeling for the prospect's personality, but the prospect doesn't know that. He knows only that his agent has prepped him for a certain number of questions. "You try to keep it casual, because we're looking for a genuine dialogue," Myers said. "The agent's prep work runs out after about five minutes. Then, they become themselves and it becomes comfortable. It becomes a fruitful conversation." San Francisco Chronicle

Once considered a top-five prospect, Sullinger could slip to the Warriors at No. 7, where he'd be a logical fit to fill their needs as a backup power forward/center who rebounds and scores from the low post. "I like him, and I think he's going to be good," Warriors general manager Bob Myers said. "He wins and he's smart, and those are things that shouldn't be overlooked." San Francisco Chronicle

Or they could trade down, acquiring an experienced backup at point guard or post or an improvement at starting small forward. If they move back, they still might be able to draft forward Terrence Jones or center Meyers Leonard, both of whom have the attention of the Warriors' brass. "The nice is having the assets," Myers said. "Now, we have endless possibilities." San Francisco Chronicle

Warriors general manager Bob Myers once again denied any tanking by his squad at the end of the season. "Hopefully, we dispelled that by winning a couple of games and competing at a high level. We actually let the chips fall where they may. I think it was a tribute to the coach to see the guys play the way they played. We kept our pick and kept our integrity." Sulia

The Warriors have four picks in the 2012 draft, and GM Bob Myers doubts they'll use all of them a year after selecting three rookies. "Seven in two years is a lot. That’s the nice thing about having the assets, though. Now we have endless possibilities. That’s a good feeling." The Warriors will most likely consolidate the picks to move up, trade for a veteran or grab future picks. Sulia

Warriors general manager Bob Myers said Wednesday morning that its “highly unlikely” that he’ll be able to swing a deal with Utah to keep the 2012 lottery pick, regardless of conditions. The Warriors and Jazz had been discussing a deal that would remove this season’s stipulations. San Francisco Chronicle

Myers wouldn’t discuss the specifics of why the pre-lottery talks couldn’t net a trade, but he said he would continue to aggressively explore trade partners after the lottery. When it locked up a playoff berth, Utah lost its own pick (No. 18) to Minnesota, so it could be deducted that the Jazz want to give themselves a chance to obtain a first-rounder and the Warriors’ conditional pick might be their best option.

"I don't think anyone within our organization believes in the NBA draft lottery conspiracy theories," Warriors general manager Bob Myers said, "but if we lose our pick, we might change our minds." Myers was joking, trying to lighten the stress of Wednesday's all-or-nothing lottery in which the Warriors lose their pick to Utah if it's not among the top seven San Francisco Chronicle
