Does anyone else feel that if the C's think the 3 headed monster of Powe, Davis & Waalace can put up comparable numbers that Al will be moved, possibly revisiting the Garnett deal now with Ray Allen on board?

Assuming we plan to sign both Pruitt and Big Baby for about 
$427,000 each (hardly a given but Danny has yet to not sign 
a draft pick), that would total approx. $64 mill for 15 players. 

Since the 2007-08 luxury tax is $67,865,000, that means we
don't even have the full MLE ($5.3 mill) to offer without going
over the evil luxury tax threshold.

Looks like any improvement we make to our team will have
to come through a trade, not an FA signing.
