    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">The Heat has been in contact with the Los Angeles Clippers about a possible trade for swingman Corey Maggette, according to a league source. The Clippers forward has been on the trading block since last season, and the Heat has players that are in a similar salary range to Maggette, including James Posey and Antoine Walker.

    Maggette is under contract through next season with a player option for the 2008-09 season.</div>

    I just don't see anyone the Clippers would be interested in except possibly Dorrell Wright. I can't imagine the Clippers wanting either Posey or Walker, both are downgrades from Maggette.

    James Posey would be a solid player, good defensive ability and ability to knock down the open three. But they already have their defensive man in Quinton Ross.

    Antoine Walker on the Clips...oh God no.

    Wonder what's up with Elton Brand this year.

    Loved Posey's game winning 3 in Memphis tonight...my gosh they needed that.

    Maybe James Posey and Dorell Wright (maybe + 1st rounder) would be a decent trade for the Clippers?

    With the way Dorrell is playing in really his first year of action, there is no way he is being traded and we need picks as well because our lineup is so old. There will be no trade without Walker in it IMO.

    Brand is fine, don't worry, just hasn't been getting the same amount of touches, and the offense has had a lot of stagnation problems which is crowding things up for him since teams have been doubling him more.

    Clippers wouldn't do Walker, if there was desperation to trade Corey, which there isn't right now, Posey would be a possibility because he's expiring.

    Corey Maggette? More like Craig Maggot.

    Just kidding, I love that guy.
