If Radmanovic wanted playing time always, he should not have gone to the Clippers. How can he get PT with Chris Kaman, Elton Brand, and Corey Maggette at the F/C positions?
Vladimir Radmanovic will forever be remembered as the man that turned down $40 million dollars. With this trade you have to believe that Reggie Evans or Danny Fortson will be gone. I really want to see what Chris Wilcox does.

Um how so, Maggette is out for a while. He will probably start at small forward. It's not like he'll back with Clippers next year. This is a one time rental, with the Maggs injury. Sonics take on another young big to stash, but one whose more ready to contribute.
This will benefit both teams because wilcox will give them an inside presence they were looking for and could finally give them their starting center.Radmonovic can help the clippers with his height and ability to spread the floor for brand and maggs. I think Radman will be a rental, but will but very handy in the playoffs (im hoping). Wilcox will finally get the minutes he deserves and maybe be a potent player in their future outlook.
pretty good for both teams, but i think the Clips benefit a little more, if Vlad can control his attitude. They get another 3-point threat.
I think this a good deal for both teams CLippers get a good shooter they needed so that Bradn can get some elbow space and the Sonics get a young big men (one of my favs) in Chris Wilcox who really didnt get that much playing time in LA due to Brand and Kaman being there but I think he will turn into either a 15/10 guys or somethin else like a Drew Gooden type of player. I like this deal more for the Sonics due tthat Rad wasnt gonna resign with them and they had to make a deal fast
This could be a pre-cursor to a much bigger trade rumor that has been floating: Ray Allen and Nick Collison to Chicago for at least Tim Thomas, Ben Gordon, A #1, Luol Deng. This trade though helps both teams get more of what they are, the Clipps get more shooting and the Sonics get a tough inside presence, but not really someone who scores at will.
Corey Maggette is out indefinatly...So he's probably gone for the year.Come on guys, instead of asking simple questions take 2 minutes to find out for yourselves.
Why? Whats the matter with asking a simple question? We are he to discuss basketball, so what better place to find my answers then here?
Radmonovic is a European Shooter, while Wilcox is a banger down low. The Clippers got the better player right now, but Wilcox is improving steadily. The Sonics have too many bruisers down low though.

He should be back in a few weeks. I hope he soesn't screw with the Chemistry (i.e. Chris Webber).
