Players who could be had cheap.



I was wondering, if some of you have been following the  sprewell-carlesimo feud. This has been on from the time when Carlesimo told 
sprewell to lower the volume of his boombox which he did at that time but not 
without harnessing some ill feeling. 

Yesterday there was a report on KNBR 68 <local sports radio>, saying that the 
situation got aggravated during the Laker game, where-in on one hand the Lakers 
were blowing out the warriors while sprewell was discussing hair styles with 
Kobe and laughing. Seeing this, Carlesimo called Spre to the huddle, which he 
overlooked..PJ then called him again a little bit sternly this time. To which 
Spre replied as "PJ you are f'ing joke". 

The warriors want to trade Spre now, who is making about 7 mill, and is a base 
year compensation player. Do you think that the celts could have some interest 
in him? We could atleast get reid of atleast Ellison, Dana or Dee and maybe 
DeClerq. The problem with Spre is, he plays well, if he doesn't have to be the 
team leader <like when Chris Webber was around>, but goes berserk when the 
coaches keep telling him, that he is the man etc. Now, if he comes to the Celts, 
he will see a kentucky dominated ball club and may not be able to assert his 
dominance the way he does in warrior locker room where he clearly is the best 
player. Assuming Spre to be onboard, Walker clearly is the best player on the 
team, so Spre gets to play his game..Mercer ends up sharing time with McCarty at 
SF and Spre at SG. I feel if a deal, such as the one outlined above happens it 
may have it's merrits any thoughts?
