FA money for next year

[JOzersky@aol.com]

OK, so now the deadline has passed.  Figuring there is no way Ike Austin will
stay in clipland, who do we spend our 6-7 million dollars on?  This isn't
chump change, unless you are talking about perennial all stars.  I would
spend most or all of it on Mike Stewart, who is a phenomenal athlete.  This
guy could be all defensive some day, and he can run like hell.  I don't know
if we can afford Ike Austin, but we should go after him.  Stewart can
probably be had, however, although Sacramento will probably take care of him.
 Who does that leave?  Forget Matt "The Hills Have Eyes" Geiger, who hasn't
shown me anything.  Just another goon, basically.  I like Andrew much better.
 We might have a crack at Divac, too.  I think we might be able to work a
trade for Mashburn in along here, if we give up our lottery pick, but if we
can't buy a center, we might do well to take Brian Skinner, or one of the big
men left when we pick.

foresightedly,
Josh
