I don't even want to know how many times this had been said all summer, it would make me angry. I myself probably wrote it 5 or 6 times.
How could we have gotten a restricted free agent through any means besides a trade. I'm sure Petrie looked into it.
"Looking into it" and "getting it done" are two different things. We probably could've gotten him in a trade.
lol
Petrie did look into getting Wilcox, as reported a bunch of times in the last couple weeks. Maybe he still is. The only way we could of/can get Wilcox is through S/T.
We don't know for sure though. All we know is that there was/is interest in him.

Maybe you should take your resume down and hand it to the Maloofs.
If only I actually had a resume
Sorry but I am just getting kinda angry, I mean I am not one of those GP bashers but he still hasn't gotten us our PF/C guy yet. I had a lot of hope we could get Wilcox and this is like dissapointment, so I am kind of angry about it. I also believe the sonics would've done a SAR+Potato for Wilcox but then again I don't know. So yeah, sorry about acting retarded but I am kind of dissapointed right now.
And that's why he sucks and we'd be infinitely better off if some of the fans on this board were running things"Getting it done?" GP is an NBA GM, not a godfather who can make "offers you can't refuse."
eta: BMiller you do realize the Sonics just let Pot go, right? Stranger things have happened but its highly doubtful they want him anymore than we do.

Yeah he would just be in it for salary filler since he's an expiring contract so Wilcox could get the deal he wanted. Maybe it would work with Hart too. Who knows though, it's all over now so I might as well stop caring about that scenario.
Nothing is official until Wilcox is signed and there's an announcement by the team. Neither of which have happened yet, not even an agreement.

Yeah, I'm sure GP could have gotten it done if he offered Ron straight up for Wilcox. I mean, come on GP, just get it done!

I really think that seattle would take sar and Potato, lol for Wilcox. They did have interset in sar in the past and might still today. But what i really think happened was that Sac was unwilling to give up sar a proven player with a good contract for Wilcox an unproven player who only played well for half a season. GP most likely was only willing to give up Kenny for Wilcox and Seattle said no. And if I were in their position i would have said no also, lol.

For who???
It takes two to tango and is their anyone one our roster that you would want if you were Seattle?? The only player that I would possibly want would be Shareef and he has 4 years left on his deal. Why would you take that when Wilcox has a ton of potential, is only 23, and you are getting him on a 3 year deal when he would be easily moveable if it doesn't work out??
You can't just magically walk into a conversation and say, "I'm Geoff Petrie and you are going to trade me one of your better players for my crap".
