Well if he wants to go somewhere else why dont we trade him? Maybe a Troy Hudson or Sprewell from Minn? Make a package for Brand, ya I wish! But either way, we got cap room for a player who wants to play.
Geez and I thought I had a headache from the way back from Coventry.... <font color="DarkGreen">(Yes, I PHISHED Coventry and it was great. Too bad some folks couldn't make it in. It was awesome, Mud and ALL!)</font> Ok, back to the GP issue: I understand GP's anger with the Lakers. It's pretty clear they lied to(or at least mislead) him to get him to sign. If he doesn't sign, we get immediate cap relief. Honestly, I don't know why GP doesn't suck it up for half a season and just report and play hard until DA can trade him somewhere. One things for sure though, his family is not the reason for this. Nice excuse, but if you just want to be traded to a contender, then say so GP. Houston and Minnesota aren't in the greater LA area.
