The Warriors are in the early stages of discussions for free agent big man J.J. Hickson, according to league sources.

Armed with a mid-level exception, the Warriors are seeking frontline help to play behind starters Andrew Bogut and David Lee. Hickson — a 6-foot-9, 242-pounder — figures to address the Warriors needs for athleticism, rebounding and some scoring.

The Warriors wanted to get Hickson after Sacramento waived him late season. But Portland claimed him off waivers, and Hickson averaged 15.1 points and 8.3 rebounds in 19 games with the Blazers.

But Portland opted not to extend Hickson a qualifying offer, which would have made Hickson restricted. But according to the Oregonian, Portland wanted to avoid the $5.9 million cap hold.

Portland still has interest in Hickson. Including the Blazers and Warriors, about six teams are in the mix for Hickson.

Golden State has also expressed intrigue in free agent big man Jordan Hill. The Warriors are also keeping tabs on center Kwame Brown, who played well for the Warriors before a torn chest muscle knocked him out for the remainder of the season.

Brandon Roy probably pulled a slick move to get away from the Blazers.

The most recent proposal, sources said Sunday night, would call for the Nets to send the expiring contracts of Jordan Farmar, Johan Petro, Anthony Morrow and Jordan Williams along with the signed-and-traded DeShawn Stevenson and a future first-round pick to Atlanta in exchange for Johnson.

Other free agents on the Mavericks' list include Marcus Camby, C.J. Miles, Steve Nash, Ray Allen, Josh Howard, Joel Przybilla, Brandon Roy, Hasheem Thabeet and Dallas Wilson product Anthony Randolph.

I think it's obvious why the Nets don't want to give up Marshon, they plan to use him in a trade for Dwight.
