I'm not so sure that Antoine would be the best thing for our team. When I think of him I think of a player that is more flash than substance, can't play D, and is a ball hog. Granted, I haven't followed his career that closely, but a few Celtics games here and there have helped me come to this conclusion. Would we want a player like Walker who could potentially ruin the chemistry that Yao and TMAC have? I know he is a really good player, but would it be worth it to take the chance and acquire him, or would it be better to get somebody like Stro that could fulfill our needs and not take away from anything that we have going for us? Also, another question is, what would happen to Juwan if we acquired 'Toine?
you will notice that this thread that is still on the first page got locked already.. http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?t=98447 good luck with this one. but then again..the other one appears to be locked for stupidity...still good luck..Ihave no opinion about Walker...I trust the team.
I think the Rockets will consider him because they are in need of a talent upgrade, but will ultimately decide to pass. CD has done a good job lately with resisting impulse moves, and I think signing Walker would be a huge impulse move. He's very tempting because of his talent, but in the long term, he's just not the right fit as the 3rd scoring option and as the type of power forward this team needs. If they sign him, they'll eventually figure that out, like Dallas and Boston have.
i would have to say that this thread is redundantly redundant. however it is a more clear cut question and thus deserves to stay since the other was locked and will soon be deleted. i would say if stro passed on us, then walker would be my second choice. after him i would look at marshall and SAR.
