I say Monta is the best because he is cuter..

ecj-you are wrong. maggette is a wuss who wildly throws himself at the rim hoping to get a call, doesen’t even make a strong effort to make the shot. that would require some balls. he only scores when refs are calling everything and he can’t shoot(outside the freethrow line). nellie plays him because we are so small, problem is, he plays like he weighs 175lbs. trade him any way we can, now

All I have to say is.. I have never understood why everybody hates on Maggette. “He’s over-paid”.. “He’s a ball-hog”. “He sucks”.

No he doesn’t. He doesn’t suck. He’s a very good basketball player. He’s physical. He plays hard. He’s a consummate pro. He is a very good scorer. He gets himself and the rest of his teammates to the free throw line. He’s decent defensively. Not great, but decent. He’s willing to play out of position. He doesn’t complain. I wish the W’s had MORE guys like Maggette, and for $10 mil a season, he’s definitely earning his money.

Look at Maggette’s stats, for last season and this one. Then look at NBA salaries for SF’s. Maggette’s salary is at or BELOW the money that guys of his talent level and production are making around the league.

The ONLY critique that has been fair with Maggette is his history of missing games due to injury. But, no player is perfect.. and if he WASN’T injury prone, he would be getting paid a LOT more than $10 mil/ year.

Don’t trade Maggette. Keep him. He’s good with Monta. He’s a solid vet. He’s a pro.

`To AlsMouthgard…I disagree about the Warrior’s bigs…I believe that they can and will be an effective aid to this team…I think this team could play .500 or better the rest of the season if Beidrins and Turiaf (and essentially everyone else) stays healthy…if this is the case, could a .500 team this year (.500 with as many healthy players as they can field), adding a healthy Wright, Azibuke, Bell and unknown draft pick to a .500 team…can this be a truly competitive team? Damn right they are!

problem with this discussion is that its not asking whether or not, they are team players. these two dudes blow. one of em has got to go. the warriors are no better than the utah flash dleague team. no one should be untouchable…

Gilbert Arenas is a better scorer than Monta or Maggette I say we start the bring Gil back campaign, we create posters of Gil as a gunslinger, set against a backdrop of the golden gate bridge. I think he is going to be available soon, and he is definitely going to be cheap.
