RE: Forget Antonio Daniels . . . he's dealt to Portland

["Orion" <jlyell@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jeff McGinnis would be a great addition to the Celtic lineup. He is a
scrapper that plays with a lot of heart. He and Shammond would provide us
with adequate depth at the point. Can we move Williams in a sign and trade
with the Clippers for McGinnis and resign Rogers or are we out of cap space?

Some Combinations

Baker, Battie
Walker, Baker
Rogers, Walker
Pierce, Pierce
McGinnis, Williams

Interesting twist, though. Portland was interested in Jeff mcinnis. Do they
back away from him now?

And what is San Antonio going to do with 3 PGs all still under their Rookie
contracts? (Tony Parker, Speedy Claxton, and Erick Barkley?)  Hmmmmm.
