Shouldn't the Celtics have intense interest in Wells? You'd think so, except Danny Ainge almost certainly is keeping an off guard position open for restricted free agent-to-be Quentin Richardson."</div>

    This is Richardson's breakout year, finally the kid is putting it all together.

    This was the kid getting all the "hype" (damn I hate that word now) before Bron and Melo splashed down.

    Future all star.

    Yeah, but he won't get enough touches in LA with Maggette and Brand there, though he's a very nice third option.

    Mos def. He can really make some noise in the East, and possibly get an All-Star nod. I think he and Truth can be a dangerous 1-2 punch, much more so than Pierce/Walker was.

    Q is a good young player.Expect alot of teams to throw the MLE at him.Teams with more money will throw alot at him.Don't be surprised to see him get Andre Miller/Corey Maggette type money.Meaning from 48 to 55 million.

    Allnet's prediction

    Boston won't have what Q is looking for.

    I think he could possibly end up in Orlando, especially if they get an injury exception for Hill next year. Utah's a chance too, though i don't see Q wanting to sign with them.

    True. But he could still end up in Orlando. A sign and trade that lands Giricek for the Clips wouldn't be a total loss either. I thought Q would fit with either TMac or Truth.

    However, i mentioned in another thread that the celtics' trade for davis might be temporary. When it comes time to resign him, since his contract is almost up, they might sign and trade him to get at Q, and Donald Sterling might just agree to this since he'd inevitably pay less for Davis than for Q, who he'd sign knowing the new contracts wouldn't come off the Clips' books, and knowing Sterling and his tight wad...
