Moderators lethalweapon3 Posted July 14, 2010 Moderators Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 For once, Cuban doesn't get his man... The Denver Nuggets reached an agreement in principle Tuesday night on a five-year, $34 million contract with free-agent forward Al Harrington, according to sources with knowledge of the deal. The Nuggets had to outbid the Dallas Mavericks to secure Harrington's signature after Dallas followed up its trade acquisition of Tyson Chandler earlier Tuesday with a hard push for Harrington, which included an in-person recruiting pitch at the NBA's annual summer league in Las Vegas from Mavericks owner Mark Cuban. But Denver would appear to have a greater need for Harrington than Dallas, given that the Nuggets expect to start the season with Kenyon Martin and Chris Andersen unavailable after both recently underwent surgical procedures. That enabled Harrington's agent, Dan Fegan, to land a deal starting at the full $5.8 million mid-level exception from the Nuggets which extends for the maximum allowed five years. ~lw3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Posted July 14, 2010 Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 Seems like that's happening more often. He lost JJ as well. We may be in the market for some of the same players - Shaq, and maybe Brad Miller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin capstone21 Posted July 15, 2010 Admin Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 I am not a fan of Harrington. He is a chucker this point in his career and his defense is pathetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
