Otherwise I'd do it.

The two guys on the original list who actually had nothing to worry about were Charlotte's Juwan Howard and Golden State's C.J. Watson (above, right). That's because, according to the Bobcats, Howard's veteran minimum contract was guaranteed for the season when he signed on Dec. 12. And because Watson, according to NBA front-office sources, has quietly played so solidly for the Warriors that he's likely to land a multiyear contract in the summer with the Dubs or someone else. I'm told that no Warrior generates more trade interest than the bargain-priced guard.

Shows you HOW bad we really are, when he is the most wanted of our players............although its obviously to do with his money.

Paul Pierce believes there will be changes, and he supports the concept.
"I wouldn't be surprised if something happens," Pierce said. "Usually every year something happens, regardless of if your winning or you're not playing so well. The team is always looking for ways to better itself, so it definitely wouldn't surprise me if we made a move."

And if the captain was shopping for the groceries, just what would he look for?

"It's kind of hard to say, but definitely you would like to get another shooter," Pierce said. "I think that could help us. I don't know if that's going to be coming from a range-shooting four or a 3-point shooting 3-man, but I think we could definitely use another guy who could stretch the defense." -- Boston Herald

We just have to find a team like Boston who is in a "win now" situation, and is willing to take on salary for a player who can help them (well, who they think can help )

I think Boston is a good candidate for that, especially given that they seem to be sputtering, and to have a option like Maggs off the bench would change the dynamic of there team alot.

But Boston is all about defense, that is Doc's thing, that is what they all do together to win............so if they see how lazy and clueless Maggs is on D, then Im sure that would put them off.

Saying that, Boston was one of the teams offering Maggs their MLE in the summer...........so they obviously were willing to accept his shortcomings for 5.8 mil............but would they for 9 mil.
