In 14 months, the Warriors have gone from being the toast of the league to just another NBA club in search of an identity.
Point guard Baron Davis - the heart and soul of a squad that in May 2007 became the first No. 8 playoff seed to knock off a No. 1 in a seven-game series - agreed in principle to a five-year contract worth a reported $65 million with the Los Angeles Clippers.
Davis will leave the Warriors after 3 1/2 seasons in which he helped return them to relevance and led that stunning playoff victory over the Dallas Mavericks but was unable to push Golden State into the Western Conference's upper echelon.
"It's tough, but you have to do what's best," Davis said Tuesday evening at a San Francisco screening of "Made in America," a documentary he produced about gang life in Los Angeles. "You just have to do what's fair. I'm happy with where I'm going."
