MySA.com: KENS 5: Sports Quote:
That the reason the Bulls did not get a deal done with the Grizzlies that would have put Pau Gasol in red and black was because they think Luol Deng has just scratched the surface of how good he cam become. Plus, Deng is a solid citizen who is well loved in and around Chicago. Pretty good reasons for keeping him, actually.
That no team the Pistons contacted before the trade deadline wanted Flip Murray, but that plenty were interested in former Spur Nazr Mohammed. Trouble was, Mohammed’s contract (five years, $30 million) made a deal impossible.
That Flip Sauders is serious when he says he has no interest in returning to his alma mater, Minnesota, to be head coach there.
That Mike Bibby’s ability to opt out of his contract this summer was not a major factor in the Kings’ inability to get a deal done before the trade deadline. His agent, David Falk, had indicated it was unlikely Bibby would opt out of selected destinations. Of course, Falk also had let the Kings know there definitely were some situations that would have moved Bibby to opt out.
That one of the reasons the Wolves could not move Mike James was their insistence that teams interested also be willing to take Eddie Griffin. |
