Re[2]: slightly different three way deal

[Ryan.Lee@parexel.com (Ryan Lee)]

     Hello jokiman, not to be rude but where have you been the last few 
     years when Penny was the point guard for Orlando?  Before Chuck Daly 
     turned Penny into a two guard, Penny was one of the top point guards 
     in the league.  He proved he could pass as well as any of them by 
     averaging 6-7 assists per game (granted Shaq makes an easy target).  
     Also because of his size he created huge mismatches against the 
     opposing team's point guards.  In terms of size, Chauncey is average 
     and he has a similar build to Kevin Johnson (6'2, 203 pounds).  Penny 
     would be a welcome trade to the Celtics or any other team in the 
     league.  A big guard who can penetrate, score, pass, and draw double 
     teams, we're talking about Magic Johnson proportions here.

now why the hell do we want penny, who basically plays the same position 
as mercer? unless if we move ron over to the 3 spot, and walter comes off 
the bench. penny is also a whiner.
