Mo Taylor was once a very good scorer. He got that contract because when he was with the Clippers he could really put the ball in the basket.

Now he's fat. Maybe he's a guy that will really benefit from a change of scenery. With our guards getting a scorer up front isnt a bad thing, Mo is certainly better than Baker or Moochie.

Bottom line is its still a bad trade despite the upside. Mo hasnt been good for a couple years, he's NOT a hard worker and he's got a bad long term contract.

Maybe he's a good bench player in some system, but I think for $8-$9mm we could get more bang for the buck if thats the role your looking to fill

Hey man...if we gave him a 3 year extention, then we'd have a max expring deal to trade to people in the year 2010! Great idea! I love that you're thinking ahead!

you dont get it do u? bad contracts are ok as long as they expire before 2008!

if taylor was making 10mil in 2010 then I would be killing Isiah for this trade! but isiah is too smart. this is all part of his plan as well as thia year's draft

guns.. why are bad contracts OK? You excited about the draft picks? You ever want to see them play? Did it ever occur to you that if we draft some kid like Ariza or Josh Howard with that late #1 he will probably sit on IR all year because we have 12 10 other guys making over $6mm a year?

Wait and see... people dont think about these things

we have 4 draft picks in the next 2 years.

Only problem is we have 10 guys locked up for next year and thats NOT including Ariza, a MLE player or our 2 draft picks. What are we going to do? Waive someone with $20mm left?

Wake up people... this deal hurts us on many levels. If you dont see it put down the kool-aid
