Harrington: Golden State Was The Best Situation

Baron Davis was probably the person who was the most upset about the Warriors losing out to the Pacers on Al Harrington.

"BD was with me in Vegas the whole time, so he was there every step of the way," Harrington said. "Obviously, he was very upset about it, but he understood. One thing I can say about (Warriors executive vice president Chris) Mullin is that he tried.

"If they wouldn't have gotten the sign-and-trade done, I probably would have wound up here, because this was the best situation at that time," Harrington said.

O'Neal Wants Consistency From Carlisle

Rick Carlisle has had a tough time settling on a starting line-up and a rotation thereafter. Jermaine O'Neal is beginning to tire of the inconsistency.

"We're going to have to pick a rotation," O'Neal said. "We have to find it soon. There's no way you can get a rhythm as a team with guys in and out of there. You have to pick somebody and you have to roll with them. If that doesn't work, then you change it."
