We dont have a 1st rounder to give... In the future, yes, but not this year.

But i think Hedo and Garrity would be a good deal for both teams.

Unless we can unload Garrity, I am one of the few not in favor of this trade. Maggette was great for us when he was here, and when he first went to the Clips, but I have watched him a lot and his skills really have diminished. He fell into T-Mac-eque injury woes and has been playing more tentative as a result.
I also dont see this happening as for some reason our franchise has a penchant for grossly overestimated Hedo's importance to our team. Like you guys I wouldn't mind seeing Hedo included in a trade, but Otis Smith said a while ago that he was one of our "untradables".

Well the Clips dont have many shooters at all besides Mobley. And their bench is nothing to get excited about. As much as Garrity sucks, maybe they will just remember that he is a good outside shooter....

Hedo would be a nice "throw it in to Brand, kick to Hedo" even though it doesnt work for us too well. Im sure they could put him to good use. Hedo doesnt have problems with coaches so im sure he will get along fine with Coach D in LA, even though Maggette didnt.

We dont have picks this year to give up but even if we did i would want to stay away from that. We have a tendancy (from previous years) to have a chance at picking someone but give the pick or player away.

This coming year will be a great draft and if Otis is smart he will package some 2nd rd picks and maybe a bench player for a 1st. This is all so we dont have to sign a huge contract this offseason. But if that dont work then just bring in Billups/Carter.

you make it sound like Billups would be just a "good" pickup? He is probably the best PG in the league and definitley the most clutch player in the league. Say what you want but Billups would be a HUGE upgrade from Jameer.

Lol no. I didnt mean it like that. I was saying that if we can keep the team we have now and add a less expensive guy to the team then thats a good idea. But if that doesnt work and Otis wants to get a more experienced and consistent guard then Billups or Carter could work. Im not downplaying Billups or his game and i never was. I would actually be ecstatic to get CB back playing PG with Jameer off the bench. That would be great. Most likely (since neither are on the team) he would be a better pickup than Carter.

Dunleavy: No Maggette Deal Imminent

Orange County Register -
On Tuesday, Clippers coach Mike Dunleavy said that a deal regarding Corey Maggette or any other Clippers player was not imminent.

"I don't feel we need to do anything, unless there was an opportunity we couldn't pass up that presented itself," Dunleavy said.
