Yyyyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeessssssssssssssss!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ESPN's Ric Bucher was on The Hot List on ESPNEWS this afternoon and stated that the Spurs, Jazz and a third team (can't remember which one, might have been the Heat) are all "very interested" in acquiring the Clippers' Corey Maggette. Bucher mentioned that the sub-.500 Clippers are apprently desperate to shake up their roster (they're inquring with the Kings about Ron Artest) and recognize the fact that Maggette represents their best chip.

rofl
dont hold ya breath, chum
Finley+Williams+Udrih for Maggette.
Keep in mind Maggette is currently disgruntled that hes coming off the bench, which is likely where he'd start for us too.
(Tho he'd be great for small-ball!)
We were not interested in Bonzi at 2.1 mil but now are in MeGetty at 7 mil who is signed thru 09, with a player option (not team) in '08.
Spare me. Soft ballhog who whines when he is asked to play team ball.
Had to be forced into it 2nd half of last season, the Clipps most successful in years.
MeMeMegetty.
No way will they trade Finley after him signing with us. It would have to be Barry-Udrih-Williams combo.

Manu is always best off the bench. And Brent can play a PG since Beno is no good and SF when White goes back to the D-League. I can see Maggette in the lineup.
Keep in mind that disgruntlement has a funny way of waning when you go from a team headed for the lottery to a team with the best record in the league.
No way they (or anyone else) take Beno.
If they do, they are worse than the Knicks!
It's gonna be a of a trading deadline!
Frankly, I don't forsee the Spurs being able to pull off a Maggette trade, at least not without a 3rd team being involved. The Clippers want an "impact player(s)" in return, so that they can hopefully get back in the playoff chase. They don't want expiring contracts, draft picks, rights to players overseas, etc. It would almost have to involve Ginobili, and I don't see the Spurs doing that. Again, likely the only way would be to involve a 3rd team which wants to unload a quality player (contract) and is looking for expiring contracts, etc. in return.
I don't know if it's possible, (mony wise) but if it is would you trade Manu for him?
....NO! I'd rather have Manu's intangibles then Magette's talent anyday.
If the Spurs can acquire Magette without parting with any of the big three (+Bowen), they should do it.
Magette would provide immediate scoring relief, some length and athleticism this team sorely needs.
i love maggette, but i would hate to see anybody on our roster leave for him. i love our current roster right now
i would be pissed if we traded away bowen or finley for maggette, they're not worth it
Maggette isn't the cancerous piece of crap that Wells is, and he doesn't need the ball on the block to score. The Clippers are re s for handing Magette's starting job to soft-ass Cuttino Mobley. Maggette's an aggressive player who goes to the line a lot (9.95 attempts a game in 05) and can actually grab a board... not to mention that he' just turned 27, so he's got plenty of years left. Even in 26 minutes a game (WTF is Dunleavy thinking?) he's still putting up 15 per. He's a bit of a China Doll though.
Eric Williams, Beno Udrih, James White, and the rights to Scola for Maggette and a pick? I don't like trading Udrih though. I'd still much rather have him than Jaque Vaughn backing Parker up.
Finley and Williams for Maggette would save the Clippers $17 million.
Barry for Maggette is an absolute no-go with how well Brent is playing this year.
The Clip-show is definitely about to get screwed in any Maggette deal though. When a player publicly asks for a trade, his team never gets equal value.
Magette blows.
whens the trade deadline?
Barry is shotting very well
i wouldnt trade him
It'd be awesome to have a wing player that can rebound and create
its in mid-Feb.
Read my earlier post. The Clippers are NOT interested in expiring contracts or future players. They want talent in return that can help them NOW (ex: Ron Artest).
