Re: Seattle and Baker

[Celtic4Hire@AOL.com]

I don't think you will see any contract renegotiating. This isn't like the 
NFL. However, they may be willing to take Kenny who only has two years left 
versus Baker's 5. That may also depend on the owner's situation. I think 
Baker would flourish in a backup role, knowing he was going to get the ball 
in the box and be expected to score. Walker should be able to get Baker the 
ball where he wants it. I think Baker would play much better 20 pounds 
lighter. He just needs a fresh start and a different role. (You could say the 
same for Kenny but I think he has long term injuries that have taken away his 
quickness.) Baker is just brain damage right now on the court. He has no 
confidence. With all the water that has gone under the bridge with him in 
Seattle, I don't think he will regain his prior form there. It is a risk with 
his long term contract, but it is a risk I think we must take. I wouldn't add 
any more than a no.1. If we also traded away VP to someone else, that 
possibly could free up some money to take on Baker's riskful contract...
