Re: BskBall on Fortson to Warriors

["John Lyell" <johnlyell@hotmail.com>]

Marshall would be nice but he has a big salary, but can be impressive at
times (sounds like another 3/4 we have) . Blaylock could help us at the
point but if we can't move Anderson this wouldn't help, Vonteego cummings &
Foyle would be a good fit.

If we landed Blaylock could we move Anderson to the Clips for Magette  in a
package or Toronto for Christie ?

Blaylock
Pierce
Christie or Magette
Walker
VP

Not bad !!!
