Tomasson: Clippers Free Agents Attractive Targets
Tomasson: Clippers free agents attractive targets
November 15, 2002
Denver Nuggets general manager Kiki Vandeweghe still has a home in Los Angeles. He figures to spend a lot of work time there next summer.
The Nuggets will have plenty of salary-cap room. One of their top priorities probably will be a raid of Los Angeles' Clipper ship.
The list of Clippers' free agents resembles their starting lineup. Center Michael Olowokandi is unrestricted. Forwards Elton Brand and Lamar Odom, swingman Corey Maggette and point guard Andre Miller are restricted, meaning the Clippers could match any offer tendered by the Nuggets.
But nobody expects the Clippers, who have no track record of giving anybody big bucks, to keep too many of those players. So let the bidding begin in July.
Just read the article:

It would be awesome if Denver could get two of those guys on the team. Getting Miller is really the only priority I see, though. They have Tskita, Nene, Posey, and most likely Lebron. They really only need Dre.

Clipper ship may go down to the bottom of Pacific Ocean tonight
Warriors have hot hands now. They are confident they can beat Clippers.

Interesting article. I would love to see some of the young Clippers in Nuggets jerseys next year. Nevermind whether its Olowokandi, Miller or Magette. If Denver could sign two of those three players and keep Posey, I think it would be a huge improvement next year.

I just don't know why these players really wanna go to denver .
Got the feeling you'll end like the bulls a couple of years ago when they could only land Mercer.
I think trading howard is your only chance gettin good playwers to denver.
Trade his deal to miami !!!!!!!!!!

Maybe, and Lebron could easily replace him. Or, Odom.

Clippers have only three #1 drafts for the pass 14 years. They need 2 more #1 drafts for the next two years, man.

im thinking we target kandi first since we have a good chance at signing him...then he says who he likes playing with and we go after the 2nd guy. if its a max guy like miller we are done. but if its a sub-max player like maggette we should target arenas.
adding arenas (pg), maggette (sg/sf) and kandi (cn) PLUS our draft pick would be a great offseason.

I'd love seeing Olowokandi and Magette or Arenas or even Miller in Denver. Combined with Posey, and Hilario it would be a good line up to me

it's time to trade for Clippers. don't let any of 6 FAs go away.
it is not easy to have #1 draft.
