ehh its good cuz it sheds his contract i guess, but maggette has been a stud lately and we dont need another pg or sean may. haha

2 great contracts!

If for nothing else we can move Maggette out and bring in a true point guard (at least temporarily). The Maggette contract was bad from the beginning, and the prospect of him in a dubs jersey the next few years makes me sick.

Another positive aspect is of course the two expiring contracts, whereas Maggette’s gonna keep raking it in. We need to free up space in order to give us an opportunity at signing an impact 4. I don’t mean we need Bosh or Amare, In fact I think those trade thoughts are bad on the W’s end (odds are we’d mortgage our future for a guy who’s gonna opt out and leave us dry). The type of 4 the W’s should focus on is more like David Lee, Paul Milsap, or Lamar Odom.

Anyone who thinks Maggette is a keeper, feel free to leave with him when the Ws manage to send him packing.

is because although Felton would be a decent pg for our team, to somehow think we can easily trade our glut of overpaid guards for something useful is just ignorant (besides the fact that Larry Brown would HATE Maggette.) Although I like Crawford, hopefully he will opt out this summer so that our back court is a little less crowded and we will have the cap space to bring in what this team needs way more, a PF who can rebound. All these Maggette trade proposals are coming a month too late, I would have agreed with you then, but seeing as how he is healthy and giving us a great spark off the bench, one of the things we were missing most last year, I don’t get why everyone wants to unload him asap (aside from his contract, which is inflated, but not by that much.) And as far as competing, given the Chemistry we have seen develop recently with everyone healthy, if we added another big to the rotation, I would consider us a lock for the playoffs next year, albeit no higher than a 6th seed.

But why the hell are the dubs so infatuated with Maggette? He is such trash, it makes me ill watching him. He’s an anemic defender both on the ball and help, and the guy intentionally slows down fast breaks. All he does is hoist and drive, and even when he gets to the line, he’s turned into mainly a clanker…
Also pisses me off how Jim and Bob love the hell outa this guy, always trumping up how much he scores in how few of minutes; ’cause all he does is hoist the rock.

Anyone who would take Maggette off our hands would be doing us a favor, and I don’t think Larry Brown is that stupid. The GM in Charlotte, Mr. Jordan might be dumb enough though.

The W’s need to, themselves, start trying to stockpile expiring contracts- in fact I see that as the only positive of bringing in either Bosh or Amare (anyone who thinks they’d resign w/ the dubs or that Cohan and Rowell would resign them is a naive W’s fan- know the track record)- that they have expiring contracts though is kinda a positive.
