I didn't see he was originally included in that Jamison deal, but apparently he was.

I know Danny had a long look at Al Thornton back in that draft, he might of even taken him if we didn't trade that pick. He averaged 17PPG last year for the Clippers, Washington might want to hold onto him, but I'd love love love if they would swap him for Giddens, Tony or anything else we could make work.

For a zombie, he can play some basketball. Kinda like that guy on Frankenhood.

Offer Glenn Davis for Al Thornton and Earl Boykins (salary filler)?

remember when we had players in the past that consistently took ill advised shots? (Antoine, Ricky). Thornton is as bad if not worse than those guys.

With all our good veterans who can score we need to be looking for the best shot every time. Something Thornton doesn't do.

Is Al a good defender?  I remember him as a stellar defender in college at I believe, Florida St.

He is the most selfish player in the league.  In his senior year of college he had the ball on every play and averaged less than one assist per game.  He hasn't changed in the pros. No thanks.

Yeah, possibly. Talk about tunnel vision. And he isn't even very efficient or versatile as a scorer. Insignificant contributions besides scoring. D-League kind of talent, very little separates him from Morris Almond.
