Richardson join's 5th team this summer!!

Can't find a link but just saw on sportcenter that he was traded from the Clippers to the Timberwolves for Sebastian Telfair, Craig Smith, and Mark Madsen. When I find the link I'll post it.

LA turned Randolph into Telfair, Smith and Madsen. Since when were they a team that makes good moves?

Here's the link

I wonder if this is going to be Richardson's last destination before he becomes a free agent.

I really like Los Angeles frontcourt with Griffin, Camby, Smith and Kaman. Maybe they will make it. Maybe they will qualify for the playoffs. If they stay healthy, they're not such a bad team after all.

They are such a bad team after as long as Baron and Thornton are major options on offense

Well Thornton is pretty much a chucker while Baron tends not to exert much effort at all when he doesn't have his way.

And thus, Quentin Richardson replaces Keith Van Horn as the official currency of the NBA.

Kind of a lateral move for both teams, nothing special about it. Arguably slightly better for the Timberwolves because Richardson's $9 million will be off the books at the end of the year, either trimming their payroll further or perhaps giving them a useful trade asset. If they do him, adding another swingman wouldn't go astray. Madsen and Smith are also free agents at the end of the year so it's not too bad for the Clippers, if Telfair opts out he's off the payroll too.

I'll just realize it IF Wafer signs to other teams.

He didn't. It was a rumour. It said "Von Wafer to sign with the Suns", not "Von wafer signed with the Suns". There's a difference.

There's a high chance that he will really sign with the Suns, but until that is official, he's still a free agent that is still available.

Richardson = Darko Milicic
Richardson = Zach Randolph
Richardson = Sebastian Telfair, Craig Smith, and Mark Madsen

Damn, I guess many of those jerseys weren't even made for the press conferences.

I am surprised D'Antoni traded him. He was supposedly a good fit for the offense. But either way, Im stilling pulling for Lebron in 2010.

I hope this guy didn't commit to any real estate in those cities, yet.

I thought he would have been nice on the Clippers for a perimeter shooter that they can kick the ball out to. I am guessing with Sebastian Telfair going to the Clippers that those Allen Iverson talks are dead.

No doubt. It's a shame they don't count as teams that he's played for as well, he'd be halfway to the record for most teams held by Jim Jackson and Chucky Brown.

Exactly. He doesn't even get his name in the record books that way...though admittedly he'd only be halfway there.

There he goes again.

http://www.realgm.com/src_wiretap_archi ... n_to_heat/

Quentin Richardson has been traded for the fourth time this summer.

The Timberwolves have dealt Richardson to the Heat in exchange for forward Mark Blount, two sources told Yahoo! Sports on Thursday night.

Miami is expected to play Richardson a considerable amount, while enjoying the relief of his expiring $9.35 million contract.

After playing last season in New York, Richardson has moved to Memphis, the L.A. Clippers, Minnesota and now Miami.

Wow, 5th team of the summer. He's probably having the time of his life. Atleast he's on a team that will play him.
