    Fox says its Us vs Seattle. Seattle has Baker and Horace Grant. Where does Taylor fit in? I see no place for Mo w/ Seattle or Toronto( Davis, Oakly).

    If FOX is right it looks like Houston.

    On Friday Mo is supposed to announce something. I hate to have my chain yanked, but it feels so good.

    I just hope Seattle dosen't try to dangle
    Vin Baker to the Clips in a sign and trade because the Clips could really use Baker
    over Drew and KT.

    Who said anything about a sign and trade.

    The Clippers wouldn't take Stoudamire or Jermaine O'Neal for Derek Anderson, why would they take anything now?

    Taylor to Seattle makes no sense at all. Seattle doesn't need him. Besides, he'd want starter's minutes. I doubt they'd trade Baker because the rumor is he slimmed up this summer and will be going into camp in shape. If Taylor really is only considering us and the Sonics, I think we've got it in the bag. Bring 'em on!!

    Besides, Seattle has Gary Payton and nothing else, whereas the Rockets have a lot of young talent and the opportunity for Taylor to display his offensive talents.

    Gideon:
    About that rumor, i could swear i remember hearing the same thing last year. I would be surprised if Baker really does slim down

    Yeah, it seems we hear that every year. Has it happened yet? [​IMG] Well, the sonics can at least hope its true. It really sucks when players who used to be really good suck down more food than a large horse and can't play worth crap anymore.

    If Toronto has signed Mark Jackson, get ready Houston, here comes Mo. Toronto has no room now to sign MO assuming Dadid Faulk wanted them to CLEAR space.

    Colby don't worry about Toronto. The team to worry about is the Sonics. Mo is in Seattle as we speak.

    heard the actual Clipper deal was to bring Greg Anthony for Derek Anderson. The Blazers never offered Stoudamire. I'm not sure about O'Neal though.

    If in fact Seattle tried to do a sign and trade with the Clips (which I don't believe is the case), there's no way on earth the Clippers would go for it. Have you seen Bakers salary?
