Elgin Baylor should thank Candyman for signing with Wolves else he would be searching for another job. Candyman is the worst #1 pick since I have been watching NBA. He leads the group by a mile to the group of Kwame Brown and Joe Smith. Elgin got some other reason to be happy these days. The most coveted free agent Kobe is ready to talk with his team and there is a high chance that he may sign with the Clippers. Clippers has someone what Lakers did not have that is Cory Mageatte. Another good reason to sign with Clippers is they have Elton Brand, the most underrated PF in the league. This guy just plays hard day in and out and got no ego. He is a 20/10 machine and plays hard 48 minutes unlike the most dominant center (needa name him???) Trio of Kobe, Cory and Elton is formidable and will be favorite team in Los Angeles. If he signs with Clippers he does not have to relocate and also can teach Shaq and the Lakers lesson how great of a player he is. He will still have his gorgeous wife. His wife does not want to move out from LA coz it got the best diamond stores ;) Lakers should be wise enuf to sign and trade him so they will get a good player in return. Clippers has Q Richardson and he is good. He averaged 17 points a game last year and ************************************* what you think of Coach K dissing Lakers? so much of Lakers and it's rich tradition, college coach doesn't even want to coach the team for $8 mil a year. What does that say about Lakers?
