That Mullin is preparing to talk extension probably means Dunleavy is less likely to be traded this offseason. The period to extend the rookie contracts of players drafted in 2002 began Aug. 1 and concludes Oct. 31. The Warriors, who open the season Nov. 2, have until Oct. 31 then to sign Dunleavy to a contract extension. If they don't, Dunleavy will become a restricted free agent at the end of the season, and the Warriors would have the right to match any offer he receives. Mullin also said there's a possibility the Warriors will acquire veteran help for their young bench. Though they're over the salary cap, the Warriors still are able to sign a player using the $5 million midlevel exception. They also have a $5.2 million trade exception, which they can use to acquire talent without giving up anything. "There's potential to do that," Mullin said.

The Knicks have some big contract of their own, but since those of Tim Thomas and Penny Hardaway will expire following this season, they have become two of the most attractive in the league.
