Dream Dead! Baron Signs With the Red Headed Step Children
Well it was fun while it lasted. Looks like my dream of landing Baron Davis in the Purple and Gold Armour is now dead. Maybe. Baron has agreed in principle with the Clippers for 5 years and 65 million dollars allegedly. Now its up to the Ciips to sign Elton Brand who most likely was one of the big reasons that Baron agreed to come to LA. So Elton should be next to sign right? Pretty much a lock right? Well hold your horses there, cause weve got controversy! Looks like the Golden State Warriors are not taking this lying down. In a move that seems out of sheer spite , they have now turned around with the money they saved with Baron and offered it to of all people…..Brand !!! The Warriors reportedly are rumored to have offered Elton a 5 year deal worth up to 90 million dollars . Some reports have that figure going up to 100 million. Now we know Elton probably had a somewhat handshake agreement with Baron to team up together. But 25 million is 25 million baby! Because the Clippers can only offer him up to 75 million for the same 5 years. Its going to be a tough one to decide for the Brand family but ultimately knowing the kind of guy Elton is , i can see him staying even for less money.
Around the NBA other Free Agency News
Looks like Maggette is all but done signing with the Spurs. Wow the Spurs actually signing someone that is not in their Golden Years wow!!! James Posey looks to be deciding between the Lakers, Celtics and Cavs. He is actually from Ohio. Josh Smith speaking to Philly as we speak but Hawks can match any offer. Not much news on Sasha Vujacic or Ronny Turiaf yet although Turiaf was said to have some interest from the Jazz.
