As a Spurs fan, I do hope the Spurs get him. That way Manu can start and Maggette can be that scorer off the bench. Maggette has all the tools to become a great defender, being in the SA system and being a 3rd option on O will improve his D. They’ve won the championship with 3 scorers, imagine what they’d do with 4. I’m smelling a dynasty!

I’d also love him on the Magic, Turk-Lewis-Maggette-Howard can come out of the East.

I hope he doesn’t sign with the Celtics and take a free ride. He’s still in his prime. He can be a bigger contributor elsewhere. Come to San Antonio Corey.

Word from Yahoo! sports is that the Spurs are the front runner here. That could be scary for the rest of the West.

when someone says “it’s not about the money”, it’s all about the money. he will go to the highest bidder, which is either utah or orlando.

MoX,

Every team needs a trash man. I guarantee you he would be a big defensive help given spot minutes and he finishes well around the basket. A poor man’s David Lee, but Sixer’s never gave him burn in the regular season, so I’ll reserve further praise for his energetic style of play at another time.

@ K Dizzle,

You think Turkoglu is for real? I’m just not convinced he will help take Orlando to the next level. I always liked his versatility, but he needs to get up off the ball and let Rashard earn his keep and Jameer be a PG. a lot of times it looked like he was running his own offense out there, which is cool is he is the number 1 or 2 guy, but for development sake, dude is a 3rd option on that team or should be. They can’t let Rashard hide. He needs to work and know that he is the guy that has to make shots.

Excuse me, but where the HELL does Corey Maggette fit in in Boston? SG? Ray Allen. SF? P-Dub. He can’t play the 4, 5, or 1. Does he come off the bench? Does he split minutes with PP or Ray? I woulnd’t think a team that just won a chip would want to mess with their core unit like that. All this talk is really ridiculous.

Kuda- amundson is trash. He’s a D-leaguer dude for real
Murphy would thrive in Orlando tho, you’re right.

Spurs are going to be very tough to stop with Maggette. He’s the extra scorer and the type of scorer (bullish, gets to the line) that team desperately needs to balance itself.

If he goes to the Spurs, that’s just wrong.
