Question from a Magic fan 

Post#1 » by NEM » Fri Jan 20, 2012 5:03 am

What would you guys want for Mo Williams?

Would Jason Richardson + Quentin Richardson be sufficient?

If not, tell me what you would consider a good deal...

and please no, "Dwight or bust" because frankly, we are getting tired of that response LOL.

Redick + Anderson for Williams + Cook would be fine by me, but that's certainly not happening.

Though, all the guys you'd trade for Williams aren't worth trading him(we'd try to upgrade the team and not give him away for lesser or equal talent, as we want to win now) and that's why there most likely wouldn't be a trade between the Clippers and Magic, as long as there isn't a third team involved.

Yeah I dont think we would give up redick alone for mo, and I KNOW we wouldn't give up anderson for him, let alone both of them... Oh well, just seeing what you guys would be interested in

I agree w/ DET. Mo is too valuable on this team to just dump his salary; if he was traded to start somewhere else, we would want fair market valu.
Harden from OKC won the 6th Man last year, but Mo is showing the NBA that he can come off the bench (WEDNESDAY as an example) and lead the team. I also think by keeping Mo & keeping him happy, more NBA vets will take a look at the Clippers as a "real" team that can go deep in the playoffs.
Free Agents used to come here for $$$, now they think they can WIN!

If we trade Mo we need to get a defensive wing player that can shoot the three. Not sure the Magic have that on their roster.
I've been an LA Clipper fan since 1998 and that will never change. I hate our new logo and jerseys!

I think they have pietrus? not sure how his D is, but that's not much of an upgrade from gomes... i think gomes is the better defender of the 2

EDIT: nvm he's in boston lol

Clippers need a wing defender, but to be honest, I think they would try to move Eric Bledsoe before they move Mo, given how well he's playing.

that's if mo would prefer to stay, at this time he's showing his value and he is a FA after this season. I doubt we're moving EB until at least after things with mo settle, EB is a really strong and high potential youngin, i'm sure our FO knows that.

Absorb Gomes with the 4.25 million trade exception and you have yourself a deal. That even things out for us. We are at the bottom of the NBA in three point shooting and Mo is on fire from there. JRich and QRich are shooting career lows in that category in the low 30% but I would hope that maybe a change of scenary and maybe playing with CP3 might help them out (even though is suppose Dwight makes everybody around him a much better shooter). Whats up with JRich and QRich? Are they injured? I like JRich cuz he could play the two and three.
