Maybe we can get Watson as well as Thomas? Hopefully we ship Carlos Arroyo and PG!

Seattle GM: How about Kurt Thomas for your trash?

Otis: I like our current roster.

ya he would be ok, won't help much on the reboundin but it would be another big body. plus if its him AND tony Battie, that would help in the playoffs

K.T. is a one year fix. What happened to all the talk about getting someone that makes sense long term? I know, don't believe anything Otis has to say, but c'mon. If we could somehow pry away Luke in the deal, it would be worth it, but I'd much rather have Wilcox. Thats a building block imo. This does fill a need, but its still weak.

For a team wanting expiring deals, why would Seattle trade away an expiring for an expiring guard(s)? When they already have a plethora of them?

I'd actually like Ridnour here in The O if we can package him alongside Wilcox/Collison/Thomas. If we can ship all of our expirings other than Mo Evans, and get one of those big men (maybe two for security if we get Thomas) and Ridnour, I'll retract everything I've ever said about Otis.

id like to get thomas hed be good to help the remainder of the season a big body with decent offensive capabilities but id much rather see otis shoot for wilcox. thomas is a quick fix for this year, id almost rather us wait to the end of the season (if thats what it takes) to get a guy lik wilcox

Quick fixes don't work. Unless we get Collison or Wilcox, it basically a waste of time.

quick fixes work Rasheed Wallace was one remember. He was expiring and they just decided to resign him after the season. Get it done otis, we only need his services for what 28 more games. When the playoffs start we will have kurt, battie, howard and foyle up front which is mandatory for going up against the pistons in the second round
