		<description><![CDATA[The thing I like about Maggette is he is a baller with an attitude. You need a couple of guys like this on your team. With that said his is not a guy you can build around but he will without a doubt put points on the board, and shoot a high % at the ft line. Is he worth 50 mil over 5 yr?  Hard to say! He will help that W&#039;s with the lose of points that Baron would have put up.]]></description>

If all these youngsters step up plus a good team chemistry, (Bellineli, BWright, Randolph, Kelena, Hendrix and CJWatson)then we will be alright for 50 wins.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As for Maggette, sure he will compensate Baron&#039;s production But he has to get the ball first! Ball rotation will be a factor.

So the question is who is going to find him open and give him the ball?

Turiaf? The guy is a banger but he can&#039;t run. Why do keep getting forwards when we just drafted two?

Sign Biedrins and Monta now.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#039;m not saying we don&#039;t need a point guard, We do!

But if we really think about it, Phil Jackson&#039;s teams (from Chicago to LA) have thrived with success without a natural point guard.

True, a classic point guard is really a great help, It makes a great difference, but over relying on one could prove to be fatal as well. If your point guard goes down from an injury, What now?

I wouldnt mind Monta playing point, but for a grind of 80 games, He will definitely have to share it with a natural. Monta can play point. But he is a Band Aid point, not a surgical point.

But, CJ Watson is not a bad point guard. If you look at his stats in the NBADL, This guy is a scorer. I think all he needs is a chance. This guy is legit.  The pressure is on this guy now. Let the pressure bring out the best in this guy. I think he will deliver.

I  do think  acquiring Billups will settle the problem once and for all.

PG Billups/Watson/Monta/Jax
SG Monta/Jax/Kelena
SF Corey/Jax/Kelena
PF BWright/AHarington/Hendrix/Randolph
C  Biedrins/Kosta Perovic/Hendrix/Randolph

Bench: Randolph, Hendrix, Watson, Kelena, Perovic.

Looking at the equation above, we do have a lot of big men now, and they are younger with great potential especially Randolph who is still growing in height!!

This leaves Al Harington the odd man out and definitely the guy who should be traded.

Perhaps it&#039;s a good idea to trade Harrington and Perovic to the Clippers, (That way, Baron wouldn&#039;t be nostalgic haha).

One note however, Do not ever trade Stephen Jackson. He may have a very colored past but he will bring a lot of money to the table. And to think the way he has transcended to where he is now, Jackson is simply amazing.

Baron, Stop biting your nails! Use some Clippers!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[IF the W’s sign Turiaf and the Lakers don’t match (which they probably won’t because of the luxury tax) then it allows the W’s to have trade flexibility with Harrington as bait.

I think they should trade Harrington and perhaps a 1st rounder to the Pistons for Chauncey Billups! He would be a the perfect PG leader type that the W’s need to replace the selfish Baron.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[where do i start?  Well, I hate Maggette. and at 10million per year, i can&#039;t even aplaud 20 points per game beacuase that is expected for the the pay.  I also hate turf-head.  But, hey maybe he&#039;s a decent deal, and we are starving for a defensive, rebounder to play the 4 or 5.  I guess when you&#039;re starving you will eat just about anything.

I&#039;ve held alot of repsect for Mullin and Nelson since they joined the warriors, but i don&#039;t like any of this UNLESS..........they are positioning for a trade.

i suppose it makes sense to grab the next best FA with your money, since there is nothing else to spend your money on (assumming j Smith isn&#039;t worth it~ which i think he might be) so that you atleast have trading blocks. Otherwise, your money is just siting there.

Please hurry up and sign Ellis and Beidrins, and please be more responsible in those contracts, perticularly beans, who can&#039;t make an open jumper let alone a FREE throw.

btw, Buike can do everything Maggette can for less than half the cost.  Just my opinion.  Congratulations warrior fans on our consolation prize.

Anybody going to open tryouts?  I think i might be able to make the team this year....actually mybe we should head to LA for that.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Maggete will fit nicely in Nellies system.

Brand going to Sixers is a nice slap in the face to the selfish Baron Davis! LOL…

Screw Baron and the crappy Clipps…serves Baron right to be on a crappy team! Even if the Cipps overpay for the one dimensional Josh Smith…they will still suck! haha. Another player I would like to see W&#039;s who would fit the system and compliment Ellis is Ben Gordon.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Well I&#039;ve actually always like Maggette&#039;s game.  He reminds me of Jerry Stackhouse, a perfect 6th man giving you major offense of the bench.

I don&#039;t know where that leaves Azabuike, I hope they still plan on keeping him, but this is a step up from MP.

They do still need a PG and a PF, although they could sign Keyon Dooling and hang onto Al.

Starting 5 of:
1 - Dooling
2 - Ellis
3 - Jax
4 - Al
5 - Biedrins

Wouldn&#039;t be bad.  Maggette, &#039;buike, Wright as the rotation guys and Bellineli, Watson, Perovich, Hendrix and Randolph as spare parts.

Could be worse, we could have this years Clippers lineup.

Baron, Kaman, Fazekas, Thorton and Eric Gordon]]></description>
