wow----this team is being depleted after there was some hope with davis. I really think there is opporunity for the Knicks to attempt to shave 2010 salary with the clippers. They need players and they have cap space

They signed the guy for a little over 6 million he is a proven player, it's not like they gave him a 7 year deal escalating at 10 million, owe we did that for crawford a 40% shooter. Maggette gets to the free throw line and scored 22 last year. He is an above average sg and they will play jackson at the 3 and ellis at the one.

I believe the Warriors are shopping Harrington for a PG. Those plans could be changing now since if they do deal Harrington they don't have a starting PF (even though Harrington isn't a PF) but in that system he is.

i think Maggette is dumb as a brick. he's the marbury of small forwards.

it probably does mean they're shopping Harrington though.

man, what a weird off season.

What is Chris Mullin doing?

He isn't making sense.....biedris isn't signed either right?

Monta Ellis isn't signed yet.....are they strong arming the kid? Is he a restricted free agent? Are they forcing him to sign an offer sheet to simply match it? Is Monta even a point guard. He doesn't really display point guard skills.

Its kinda retarded if you ask me.......ah well its not my team.

Personally, Chris Mullin has shown me nothing to make me think he's a good GM. I'll give him credit for the Monta Ellis pick, but that's really it.

Edit: I guess I gotta give him credit for the Baron Davis trade too. I don't know though, in 4 years he's made 2 good moves.

Wow 5 years? That's alot.

I guess I'm in the minority here, but I happen to think that Maggette is a pretty good player, he gets to the line a ton, makes his foul shots, always shoots at 44-45%, gets you 5-6 rebs a game. He does miss games though. I still think 5 years is too many though, 3 would have been a better number, but I guess the Warriors had to overpay.

He is good but they didnt need him. Keeping Pietrus would have been better bc he is better defensively. And if Monta doesn't return who is playing point. The Clippers and the Warriors will suck for a while.

Yeah, I definitely agree with that. I think this was a Don Nelson frantic move, since it's his last year as coach. This is why I think it's possible that Nelson wouldn't mind adding Zach because this really is his last year and he has one shot to get something done. He might think he can get something out of Zach and since he's only there for a year, he doesn't have to worry about the rest of the years remaining on Zach's contract.
