i think at this point unless we get another sf like harrington id hold on to jalen to play for us next yr then let his contract expire...although with our management i think the chances of letting an expiring contract actually expire is slim to none.
under their philosphy of not getting near/under the cap, this team CAN NOT let expiring deals expire. it's the only real way of aquiring nba talent. we gave up a lotto pick this year and a chance at a lotto pick in 2007. we owe another pick between 08/10. our assets to acquire nba talent is the MLE or trading expiring deals.
i'm not sure why everyone is so high on harrington, i just don't see it. i don't think he's what we need. i think we need more defensive minded guys at the 3 and 4 and not a tweener like harrington who's good on the offense. i'd rather have dmiles and reggie instead of the price of harrington alone. i think he's gonna stay in atl but you never know.
