Maggette Ends Up...

I still think the Spurs make the most sense.

i also think the spurs land him.  i think the spurs let barry and finley go and we pick up one of them.

It all comes down to the Brand thing.  If Brand sticks with the Clippers, I think Maggette goes to San Antonio.  If Brand jumps ship, I think Maggette goes back to the Clippers.

I'm leaning towards the Spurs scenario.

Also said the Spurs. I think that is the most realistic scenario.

I too think the Spurs land Maggette

I think Brent Barry should go to the Suns and the Spurs should then sign Spaghetti. But I'm taking the less traveled road and saying the Clips crap themselves for losing 2 super stars in the time of a week and retaliate by overpaying Spaghetti.

Who knows though, maybe he'll go to the sixers instead.

  If you're keeping score at home, my "other" vote was the first vote for GS.

The fans appreciate that sort of accuracy

I suppose I think Maggette goes to the Spurs if Brand goes to Philly, but I am not quite sure why I think that.

I haven't seen any comments legitimately attributed to Maggette that indicate a preference for San Antonio over Boston (please point me to something more than speculation).  

Logic creates no clear front-runner as far as I am concerned. San Antonio has better weather and a starting role.  Boston has Maggette's former coach, a cohesive team of veterans coming off a championship season.  Maggette has never played more than 36 minutes per game and will probably be right around 35 whether he plays for the Spurs or the C's.  Don't the C's as constituted have a better chance in the East to get to the finals than the Spurs in the West?  

If Maggette decides to choose among teams offering the MLE, I really don't see why San Antonio is the logical choice.  If the C's really want him, the 'sales' team of Doc Rivers, Danny Ainge, Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett has no equal.  Inspired by Tim Duncan? Wooed by Manu Ginobli?  Cajoled by Tony Parker?  If money is no object I cannot see why San Antonio is a more likely choice than Boson.  

That said, I am influenced by the power of consensus here and I think that if so many wise cbloggers think San Antonio, you must know something I don't.
