5 years, $34M. Damn.. that's Wesley Matthews-type money.

ESPN.com sources: Nuggets win race to Al Harrington and have agreed to terms w/Harrington on five-year deal worth $34 million. Link on way

JR Smith, Chauncey, Melo, Harrington and only one ball.

I am interested to see how that works for them. Hopefully it is bad for the Nuggets but good for Harrington - I have always liked him even if he is not the perfect picture of how to be a "team player".

Thank the Lord. I was dreading us wasting the full MLE on him. That's a huge relief.

I guess they'll be going SSOL on us. I wouldnt' want to coach that bunch of guys. I wasn't for getting Harrington here. More than happy to let Denver have him. Maybe they can get Nate Robinson too?

not sure how denver thinks he helps them. I do think he would be a good 7th man on the jazz and provide some outside shooting.

for denver seems like JR Smith part 2

[jazzfan1971]

Pretty obvious replacement for Kleiza.

He can be a useful player...when he's under control. That hasn't been a big priority in Golden State or New York, and it's not exactly George Karl's forte either. It'll be interesting to see if Harrington tries to adjust his game in Denver.

He'd not a bad signing if they an get him to buy into not shooting every time he touches the rock. With K-Mart and Nene being such wild cards to stay healthy having a guy like Harrington gives them more insurance than he does by adding a missing skill to their team.

I think Harrington is not good for them but could have been good for us. Tough team gets tougher, but low IQ gets lower too.
