I'd rather resign Maggette than trade for Gordon. There should be good combo guards available in the draft position 5-7 that the Clippers likely will find themselves in. Gordon would likely be too expensive anyway unless the Clippers can find a way to get rid of Mobley and his contract, he was asking for 5 years/50 million last offseason.

i'm not really sold on gordon either. nor am i sold on corey moving back to shooting guard but the opportunity for us to move cat or tt's contract is nice. i'd never pay gordon $10 mil a year but luckily i don't think anybody else would either. we'll see if his demands come back down to earth this summer.
