Joe Alexander - W.V. 

Post#1 » by Dewey » Fri Jun 20, 2008 7:34 pm

Trade #3/filler to the Clippers for #7/Kaman, then draft Joe Alexander.

Then, for a team needing a SF, package Gomes/filler to get a decent veteran PG.

Start: Foye, Brewer, Alexander, JJ, Kaman

A number of LAC/MN discussion out there. I really like Joe Alexander and find him quite intriguing with his athleticism and upside. I still think I take Gallinari before Alexander though. Like them both a ton so would be ok with either in a trade back.

I like the Kaman based deals. From my perspective even though I like Kaman a ton, I'd still try to ship him to MEM for the 5 to conserve cap space.

I like Kaman as much as the next guy and would love to have him, but no way the Clips are gonna trade him. With Brand and Maggette likely gone this year or next, the Clippers have no one to build around except Kaman (Al Thornton is a nice supporting guy, but a supporting guy nonetheless).

Go tell the Clipper fans that, I know it isnt right to generalize, but one of the fans literally said Al Thorton was the next coming of Dominque Wilkins. I mean, really.

Does the name OJ Mayo ring a bell for you?

In a normal draft Joe Alexander would not be a top-10 pick. This is a weak SF draft. I am not a big fan of Joe Alexander. He reminds me a lot of Joey Graham.
