BARON DAVIS TO CLIPPERS

And just like that, not only is Baron Davis no longer contractually obligated to those Golden State Warriors, but he's a freaking Los Angeles Clipper. ESPN and L.A.'s CBS affiliate have both reported Davis has reached a preliminary agreement with the Clippers, and expects to sign a five-year, $65 million contract next week.

Is this a more shocking turn of events for the Warriors, or the Clippers? L.A. faced the risk of starting Brevin Knight and/or Paul Davis this fall had Elton Brand fled for greener meadows and had the decent point guard options (Sacramento's Beno Udrih, for one) gotten sopped up. Instead, the team looks like a contender for the eighth playoff slot in the West at least, which ...

... knocks those Warriors down a peg. Losing Davis hurts, but it seems the Golden State faithful had prepared for his eventual exile. But losing him this summer on his terms to a division rival without getting an asset in return ... that's not the plan, I'm guessing. Now, it's Monta Ellis at the point, unless Chris Duhon's your man.

Chris Mullin was a champion last summer in his hardball negotiations. This time? Not so much. Davis just did this to the Warriors.

What a blow for the Warriors. Pero kung ganahan mo-bawos ang Warriors, they need to sign Elton Brand. Nyahaha! So much for retaliation.

Actually, when Davis opted out, he created a major capspace for Golden State. They're gonna join Philly, Memphis, Charlotte and LA Clippers (they still have a enough) into signing major free agents this offseason.

I think maka-offer na sila ug dako2x sa mga restricted and unrestricted free agents like Josh Smith, Josh Childress, Corey Magette and others that fit their system.

CALDERON HAS NEW DEAL


Raptors point guard Jose Calderon said on Tuesday that he has reached an agreement with the team on a new contract, according to ESPN.com.

"Early this morning, through my agents, I reached a preliminary agreement with the Toronto Raptors," Calderon said on his Web site. "I want to thank [Raptors president and general manager] Bryan Colangelo, [assistant GM] Maurizio Gherardini, [coach] Sam Mitchell and all of the Raptors family for the confidence that they have placed in me."

He did not provide details regarding the contract.

Toronto cleared the way for Calderon to become their permanent starter when they traded T.J. Ford to Indiana for Jermaine O'Neal last week.

GRIZZ AGREE CONTRACT FOR GASOL


The Grizzlies will have another Gasol in uniform in 2008-09 after agreeing to a three year, $10 million contract with Marc Gasol - Pau's brother - Marty Burns from Sports Illustrated is reporting.

The contract has yet to be signed but was said to be near completion.

Memphis GM Chris Wallace said previously last month that Gasol could have been a lottery pick this year.

"He was drafted 48th by the Lakers last year, but if he was in the draft this season he'd be deep in the lottery," Wallace said. "He's one of the elite players in Europe."

43 pick over all: Sacramento Kings - Patrick Ewing Jr., Forward, Georgetown

Patrick Ewing Jr. – Brings a lot of energy. Need to work on his offense. He can rebound for you. He can run the court. He can guard a few spots. Great leaper. He’s a project, but Sacramento has openings.
