Pietrus has not gotten the offers he and his agent were expecting this offseason - Pietrus' camp was expecting a full-MLE offer from the Toronto Raptors, which they would have likely taken, but the Raptors decided to give their entire exception sharpshooter Jason Kapono. The Warriors are unlikely to match any big offers to Pietrus, who still has interest from several teams including the Miami HEAT and New Orleans Hornets.</div></font></span></font></p> http://www.hoopsworld.com/article_22779.shtml </p>
I think most evaluations of Kapono vs. Pietrus would suggest that Pietrus was the better fit for our team at this time, but maybe it goes to show how much faith our management team has in Joey Graham?
I never thought of that. The reason of not signing Pietrus was because of Joey. Seeing how Graham has so much potenial, there would be no need for Pietrus.
Kapono's got that lkethal shot but Pietrus has that raw energy, it matters what the team is looking for.
