kt/ward and a pick for davis? thats ridiculous...if layden pulled that out he would be a god in my opinion..but he wont because charlotte would NEVER do that. the clips would give charlotte wilcox and dooling - doolings better than ward and wilcox will be better than thomas, and they are both younger and cheaper. LA can let him walk if they want, or they can pay him, for that cheap it doesnt matter if he walks its still na amazing deal considering wilcox and dooling wont play anyawy. if the knicks want davis they give up sprewell, no question about it. if layden manages to get davis without spree or houston or dice then id say hes the exec of the year, hands down.

OK, first of all, you haven't even seen wilcox go up against NBA talent, how do you know he is better than Kurt?! Secondly "LA" can't let him walk, New Orleans can. Thirdly, fine, give them sprewell, he's playing out of position here anyway, Davis is much better for this team. Fourthly, LA wont trade for BD unless their owner changes his mind about paying a max contract, no one else has had success opening his wallet, what makes you think BD will? Fifth, and fianally, of course this trade is unbalanced, but NY might be able to get away with it because NO has no other suitor for Davis, and I'm sure they will trade him eventually...Anything else I can clear up for you my friend?

First of all, Wilcox is one of the most coveted rookies out there, and any team would rather have him than thomas. Secondly, I was saying that the Clips could acquire Davis and if they dont want to pay him they can let him walk. Maybe you should pay attention before you rant like that... Wilcox and Dooling arent going to play anytime soon for the clips with Brand and Ely and McInnis already there...so they dont lose much, and get davis for another year at least. Then when davis wants to leave they have leverage for a sign and trade since a lot of teams are going to be capped out. Thirdly, if we could get davis for spree and someone id do it in a second, because davis has the heart and the skill and the youth. Fourthly, the deal would only be for a year and perhaps furue leverage. Fifthly, the clippers could offer much better than the knicks..anyting I can clear up for YOU?

and btw, even if the Clips make a deal to get Davis and then let him walk, where do you think he's walking to? Oh, thats right, he's walking to the Garden...

He's not walking to NY. We're not under the cap, and we won't be in the next two years. And don't say sign and trade becuase if the Clips let him wake becasue they don't want to pay him, they won't want to pay someone else making just as much money.

ok, how about if he signs for the exception for a few years, makes up the lost money in endorsment contracts and then gets his fat pay day in a few years, spending the rest of his life as a Garden fixture...that work for ya?
