Comments on: 10 Questions for the 2009-10 Wizards http://www.truthaboutit.net/2009/08/10-questions-for-the-2009-10-wizards.html a Washington Wizards blog based in Washington, DC, member of the ESPN TrueHoop Network Thu, 09 Feb 2012 19:06:30 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Truth About It http://www.truthaboutit.net/2009/08/10-questions-for-the-2009-10-wizards.html/comment-page-1#comment-760 Truth About It Sun, 30 Aug 2009 20:31:40 +0000 http://www.truthaboutit.net/?p=1500#comment-760 I like Shane Battier just as much as the next guy, but Caron is waaaay more valuable than him. For one, turning 31 on September 9th, Battier's skills are on the diminishing side of his career. Butler is the Wizards' second best player ... and while the overall depth/firepower of the team looks good, giving up a talent like Caron seems to make everyone else caught in a mix of mediocre. The Wizards, in my opinion, have a better chance being led by two stars (Arenas and Butler) and a strong supporting cast after that. Houston might be willing to part with Battier for much less than Butler. I like Shane Battier just as much as the next guy, but Caron is waaaay more valuable than him.
