Talked to agent Mark Bartelstein, who represents Brandon Rush, Carl Landry and Dominic McGuire -- guys intimately involved with the Warriors completing their roster. Rush "had a great year, he loved playing for the Warriors, the fans treated him great, and Coach (Mark) Jackson treated him great. Everything was real positive," Bartelstein said. "The nature of the business for restricted free agents is that they have to get an offer sheet from somebody else. ... With that being said, if we can work something out long term with the Warriors, we’d be interested in that also.” Sulia

Carl Landry is expected to decide where he's signing in the next couple of days, according to a league source. Landry would like to play for the Warriors. He thinks it's one of the better situations for him. But being one of the best free agents available may end up getting him a contract offer too rich for the Warriors' blood. No one has blown him away salary wise, but Landry clearly wants more than what the Warriors are offering (otherwise he would've already signed, right?). No indications from Warriors camp they are willing to go into tax territory to sign Landry, so you gotta figure their offer their offer. Sulia

We know Warriors have interest in Carl Landry and Kenyon Martin. But there is another guy they'd like to get: Andrei Kirilenko. According to league sources, Kirilenko is on GSW's wishlist of PFs to back-up David Lee. Kirilenko would definitely be the defensive presence GM Bob Myers wants. But Kirilenko is also a long shot. Even if he left his Moscow team, would he chose GSW or Mikhail Prokhorov? Sulia

While no deal between Charlotte and New Orleans is imminent, these sign-and-trade discussions are the reason that Landry hasn’t signed a deal with Golden State. The Warriors want to sign Landry outright, but the power forward would likely make more money if he were to be signed-and-traded to the Bobcats. He’s weighing his options and is no rush to make a decision. HoopsWorld

The Golden State Warriors have expressed interest in Landry, according to sources close to the situation. Jarrett Jack, who played with Landry in New Orleans, started campaigning for the Warriors to sign the power forward shortly after he was acquired earlier this week. Landry appreciated Jack’s comments and didn’t rule out the possibility of teaming up with him in Golden State. HoopsWorld

When the New Orleans Hornets acquired restricted free agent Ryan Anderson in a sign-and-trade with the Orlando Magic, it became clear that unrestricted free agent Carl Landry wouldn’t be re-signing with the team. Now, the power forward is weighing his options and considering a number of situations. “I’m still just trying to find the right fit for me,” Landry told HOOPSWORLD. “It’s still up in the air. Every day it’s something new. I’m just trying to take my time and make the best decision for me and my family.” HoopsWorld

The Bobcats are waiting for answers from free-agent power forwards Kris Humphries and Antawn Jamison. If neither of those possibilities works out, Carl Landry could be an option to fill the Bobcats’ last inside roster spot. A 6-9 power forward, Landry was productive when healthy for the New Orleans Hornets last season, averaging 12.5 points, 5.2 rebounds and 50 percent shooting from the field. The problem has been injuries: He’s missed at least 25 games each of the past three seasons (one with the Sacramento Kings, the last two with the Hornets). Charlotte Observer
