at somebody calling Brand a tweener

He is like 6'8", come one now.

Brand isn't a "tweener"

. Brand isn't an SF. He's a PF...
make no mistake about it.

Ok, I should've clarified. He is undersized, having Brand will make you guys small, again. Why not go after Chauncey, and make your lineup bigger and more defensive. A much better idea then trying to grab an
undersized PF, throw big money his way and he is just coming off injury. You guys have a soon to be great PF in Wright.




Billups would make the W's a better defensive team and Brand wouldn't?

Billups is a good defender but Brand gives us a post presence offensively and defensively. Brand is also one of the best shot blockers in the game and paired with Biedrins would help our perimeter defenders.

So you'd rather stunt the growth growth of Wright for Brand? Wright can't play the 3 and you guys have no point guard.
Chauncey brings a lot more things to the table then Brand. Chauncey will bring the best out of everyone with his leadership. Wright can EASILY develop this season to be one of the leagues best shot blockers with the his length and athleticism.



He wouldn't necessarily "stunt" the growth of Wright. Wright can come in and play the backup role. Nellie can also use Wright at the 5 whenthey decide to go small. Of course, we won't go small with Wright guarding someone like Dwight, because that'll be a huge mismatch. Wright can'thandle Dwight Howard

.

If you're talking about Chauncey bringing the "leadership", we already have S-Jax, who is a captain in his own right and can be the leadertoo.

I think you're putting too much thought into this... If it happens, then it happens and then it'll be up to our coaching staff to coach accordingly.

I'm using mine now

. This whole Baron fiasco has made me hit the limit 3 days in a row

.

 

[mississippi bullet]

Brand will definitely aid in Wright's growth.

I'm treating this thread like AIM today...

 

[TheGodFresco]

Damn this thread grew since i went to work

So... i also heard somewhere that if the Clips want to re-sign Brand at a bigger contract they would have to do some sort of sign and trade with us.

[h2]The Elton Brand Update -- Not expecting anything to happen today[/h2]
From Janny Hu.



OK, here's the latest on the Warriors chase of Elton Brand: Golden State has offered him a five-year deal worth $90 million, which is right around the maximum allowed, and more importantly, is about $15 MILLION MORE THAN THE CLIPPERS CAN OFFER.



Why? Because in order to sign Baron Davis to his five-year, $65 million deal, the Clippers will have to renounce their rights to both Brand and Corey Maggette. Which means the Clips will become subject to the same salary cap constraints as any other team. Which means they cannot add a sixth year onto Brand's deal. Which means that five years at about $75 million is roughly their limit.



Basically, the Clips had about $27 million worth of cap space to work with once Magette and Brand opted out of their contracts Monday. According to multiple league sources, that was to be divided between Baron and Brand, with Brand coming away with a little more of the split than Baron.



Now? Baron is headed to L.A. ... And Brand has both the Clippers and Warriors playing a waiting game. So stay tuned.


This is getting real interesting.

 

[daprescription]

yes

 

[daprescription]

come on Hu, proof read your articles

.

 

[patrickcakes]

^ Thanks for the update. Hopefully this comes to a resolution soon.

I agree. I don't think he's coming.

 

[daprescription]

no

 

[mississippi bullet]

Who should we be looking out for in summer league? I know there was a roster posted up earlier. I laughed when I read Tamar Slay.

 

[paul is 0nline]

I doubt Brand will come here too.

 

[offbad]

he's just waiting to see if the clips will give him money better than what baron has.
