Thought on the MLE......

Well looking at the free agents that are left i was looking and i think we can use another SF or PF with it and i saw were Bonzi Wells could be a great player for our rotation.

He is a unrestricted FA and he plays D and can put the bal in the basket.

But why we can get him:

 his salary is only 2,284,200

a 2 year 5 million should be great for him....

The hornets just gave James Posey 25 MILLION..... and they are similar players

Unrestricted free agent

Hey its Los Angelas!!

PG Baron Davis - Brevin Knight

SG Eric Gordon - Cuttino Mobely - Buke                                                                                                                                                            F Al Thorton -  Bonzi Wells

PF Marcus Camby - Nick Fezeskas

C Chris Kamen - Deandre Jordan

If I understand correctly..

the Clips do not have the MLE this year. They had to renounce it in order to clear up enough cap space in order to aquire Camby. The remaining $$ they have is now locked up in the offer sheet that Azubuike signed. If he ends up with the Clips, then there is no money left, and the Clips will only be able to sign players for the league minimum. If GSW matches the Clippers offer, only then would the Clips have enough money to offer Bonzi any sort of contract, generally the same amount they have offered Azubuike. Bonzi might be an option if things don’t work out with Azubuike, but we will have to wait about a week in order to find that out.

Bonzi can still play

And he has a history with MDSr. I wonder whether they got along.

i was under the impression that ....

Azubuike was going to be Thorntons back up.

That's what MDsr is saying...

I’m concerned that he’s a little small to play the 3. But with Camby and Kaman, I suppose you don’t have to have a big 3.

The Clippers! The (second) Best NBA Team in LA!
