RE: Anthony Carter? Go for it now!!!!

Why do we always look for deals with the leagues Doormats like the
Wizards, Clippers, Nuggets, and warriors.  While there may be an
occasional gem like Rodney Rogers, most of their players don't amount to
much.  There is a reason that these teams are perennial visitors to the
lottery drawing.

I don't envision Chris Childs as a savior, but at least he comes from a
winning program and expects to win evry time he laces up his shoes.  We
could use a little of that attitude and experience around here.
