man thats insulting to AI and T-Mac IMO these guys can barely get any offer like that

I would LOVE to have AI or T-Mac sign with the Spurs as a backup. They would just need to put their egos to the side for a team. Look at Manu. An All Star type player who comes off the bench because thats whats best for the team. Having a good bench is big.

Hedo + Bosh + Jack for Jamison + West + Varejao + 3mil + picks?

Magic reach deal with former Knicks PG Chris Duhon
--- Quote ---ORLANDO, Fla. (AP)—The Orlando Magic tried to sign Chris Duhon(notes) in free agency two years ago only to watch him go to New York.
They finally got their man Tuesday.
Duhon reached an agreement with the Magic for a $15 million, four-year deal, his agent said. Teams can't officially sign free agents until Thursday.
Agent Kevin Bradbury told The Associated Press that the chance to play for a championship contender was enough to sway Duhon to the Magic this time. Duhon fills a much-needed role behind starter Jameer Nelson(notes) and could step into the starting spot should an injury occur.
"The last time Chris was a free agent, the Magic obviously pursued him hard," Bradbury said. "Chris didn't forget that, and he has a lot of respect for that team. The Magic called right away."
ESPN.com first reported the deal.
Duhon spent the last two years starting for the New York Knicks, never really living up to expectations and falling out of favor with coach Mike D'Antoni. He averaged 7.4 points and 5.6 assists per game last season.

please explain to me what you think. i'm sure it is wrong, but i'm sure what it is.
do you think the 21 mil he was owed if he had not opt out STILL count against their cap and luxery tax, even though he opted out of the contract and is playing for another team? is that what you think?
or do you think they couldn't have signed anyone that makes more sense than an aging pierce with their cap space money?

lmao
the answer is yes...boston is still on the hook for most of that 21 mill counting against their tax. learn up on the bird rule sonny.

He doesnt have a good enough mid range game, and cant take anyone off the drible like Bosh. He really needs someone to get him easy buckets.
--- End quote ---
but they got no other scorers on that team
watch the shot attempts go up and he'll still pull down ATLEAST his 20 and 9 a game. if not 25 and 9 instead.
