I think Powell's contract needs to be fixed.

would you keep fazekas or paul at this point?

Davis 100 times out of 100.

Yeah, I'll take P Diddy over Fazekas (as interesting a prospect as he is) any day.

What do you guys think is gonna happen with Q? I think a team like Phoenix is gonna step up and overpay him slightly, at least to the point where Sterling & Co. aren't gonna want to pay him to keep him. But I really appreciate Q's contribution...I wanna see him return if at all possible.

I think he'll end up leaving. His minutes have been kinda inconsistent this year, and I'm sure you're right about some other team willing to overpay him.

I'd take Davis over Fazekas as well. From that list I'd like to see Brand,Davis,Livingston,Powell, and Ross back.

i dont care about our third string center. i want to know if were gonna try to keep q.ross. we almost dealt him this season, i dont know if were gonna try to sign him to a small contract.

I think that Powell will be guaranteed at this point. He'll be getting just under $1.8M over 2 years if he's kept.

Davis could have really benefited by getting the extra playing time this season. Fazekas was efficient but the guy is just too skinny. Davis has the size at 270lbs that Fazekas lacks as a backup big.

As for Q, Phoenix wanted him at the deadline and that would probably be a good fit for him. He'd also have Bell to help shoulder the load. I'd like him to stay here as well though. We need somebody to defend these young stars out in the west.

I don't see Q staying. I think somebody will offer him $2 or $3 mil and he's gone.

He's a nice player at $800k, but not worth much more.

They need to sign Paul Davis out of this mix. Livingston isn't worth the qualifying offer and some other team will like offer Q more than he is probably worth - around 1.5 million per season.

Marcus Williams didn't show anything and should be let go. Invite Fazekas to summer league and training camp to see if he can develop. As a backup PG, Smush Parker could work, but I don't see him staying with Knight having another year on his contract to fill that role.

Smush must go. I had no idea how terrible he is.

I don't want Smush back either. I won't bash him much because he did play out of shape, but we should be focusing on someone who is a true PG.

Smush will politic to remain a Clipper and hopefully Elgin & Co don't get hypnotized. Ross should stick around for chemistry purposes but if he wants mo'money then C-YA!! Paul Davis was a keeper until he went down and Powell took his place. Fazekas is a serviceable big and should be invited to summer league along with Marcus Williams(we need youth!!). EB and Maggette should be re-signed I really admire their loyalty to this franchise through the good, the bad and the fugly.
