Horrible deal for the W's that Nellie would do in a New York minute...
80% of the WW posters love the deal....hoop dorks
Would be great for Andris to get away from Nellie.

KAMAN would avg 20 and 20 with 5 blocks |:-)

This trade would make me laugh, just because it would essentially destroy the theory that Nellie hates big men and that he doesn't want Brandan to be a huge part of our future.
Of course, this deal would never happen. But its fun to think about anyways.

i heard that caller. i believe he said al and pietrus for kaman. not AB. still an interesting thought though.

Al and Pietrus is interesting. I think we'd get the better end in terms of value and talent, but we'd take a big hit in shooting, and I'm not sure how it would really play out.
Andris and Al is brutal *and* doesn't make sense. The only reason I can fathom for trading Andris would be, "I'm a mad scientist and I only want big men who can shoot and pass". In which case why would you target Kaman, who is a nice player, but it cut from the same mold as Andris?

Twin towers, Kaman and Biedrins?

i doubt the clips and the warriors would trade such essential pieces within the same division.

Yeah..right.....in his dreams.
Nellie would not be that interested in Kaman-and Andris is worth 2 of Kaman anyhow--so we add Harrington and I guess they add a healthy Brand?
I'm not sure I'd even do that.
If The W's really did do this Kaman-Biedrins + Al deal....Old Rem would be on major Jihad to have Newllie + Mullin both fired asap.
...and then both also get kicked in the snatch....

Either of those are silly trades though - why would the Clips give up Kaman (to their Western conference foes) for Harrington and a few million in savings? And while the Warriors of course take Kaman if he's being given away, why do they put so much $$ into having TWO starting centers? And why would they even trade Biedrins for Kaman straight up?
ANY deal is unlikely between the Warriors and Clips, especially an unbalanced trade talent-wise.

As a non-biased fan of neither team, I can say with confidence that Chris Kaman is a far superior player to Andris Beidrins. Kaman is a top-5 center, Beidrins is an average starter. I can't the Clippers going for this deal.

did you actually say you're not sure if you'd trade Harrington and Andris
for a healthy Brand and Kaman?
if you did, are you serious?
