Maggette for Childress 

Post#1 » by loflin3hree5ive » Tue Jan 8, 2008 10:08 pm

Clippers Get:
Josh Childress
Tyronn Lue
Anthony Johnson
Lorenzen Wright

Hawks Get:
Corey Maggette
Sam Cassell
Dan Dickau

hawks probably won't resign childress this summer w/ all the big contracts they're going to have to start handing out soon. acquiring maggette makes the hawks better on paper for a playoff run this year since they're likely to lose chill this summer anyway, renting maggette makes sense for them. cassell puts them over the top for a playoff spot.

clippers acquire a glue guy in childress who would probably be their shooting guard of the future. he'll likely be cheaper to re-sign than maggette and is younger which is something the clippers are looking for.

You forgot JJ in your depth chart for the Hawks (kind of important).

I think this is a good trade for both teams, but it all depends on if the Clippers want to throw in the towel and remove some of their veterans at the deadline.

LA looks at this laughs and then calls a Toronto fan to get a better laugh

yeah i definitley have the clippers giving too much, i originally had maggette & dickau for childress & lue but i decided to make the deal bigger. childress will be in the price range for the clippers to sign this summer, it might be a better option for the clippers.

Where would Maggette play? JJ and Marv are pretty much set at the 2/3.
