he has got to be worth at least the bi-annual.

The best choice today is Okkafor,but Bobcats had a PG,Chauncey + Mcdyess in a trade joining Denver in the trade could be possible.

Livingstone is very risk option,without Chauncey,Affalo,Stuckey and Rip Hamiltond could have more minutes per game.

Renouncing Livingston could end up being another big mistake. If the kid comes back he could light them up for years. They should have atleast held on to him until he got back on the court and see what he could do then let him go if he couldn't produce.

Looks like Joe let another possibility slip thru his fingers


Rodney White Signs With Maccabi Elite

This news makes me want to puke.

Maccabi is going to be stacked this year...they also have Esteban Batista and Lior Eliyahu. Talk about a Big Three.

Matt Barnes just signed with PHX for the Vet's min.

Has there been any talk of Kurt Thomas? We do need a center . . .

The guys that are left or those that matter anyway, are restricted. We could have done worse than get Barnes here. he could've worked out as the annual bench veteran Joe signs.

Oh well, Childress is thinking of going overseas to Panathinaikos. That's well, the first time I've heard of a commodity in the NBA signing over there. Usually we get the guys who uhm have a hard time getting on a team, but I'm reading that Childress has many suitors. I guess the Hawks are really offending him.

Livingston hasn't been signed yet. Okafor. Deng. Gordon are the restricted still out there with Iggy. Louis Williams is rumored to be eyed by the Warriors as well.

Let's go Joe.

The Hawks have managed to offend BOTH of their restricted free agents this year, well done!

Sounds like we are going to start to hear of more and more players going over to Europe:

Marc Stein - ESPN
After one season of great financial sacrifice to try to make it with the Grizzlies in Memphis, Spain's Juan Carlos Navarro couldn't say no to a lucrative return to Europe with his old friends at Spanish giant Barcelona. Argentina's Carlos Delfino followed suit this week, leaving the Toronto Raptors not for the return to the Detroit Pistons that he was offered, but for a fat contract from Khimki BC in Russia.
Sources say Delfino will be earning nearly 3 million euros annually -- tax free, of course -- with his new club. One expert on the matter says that equates to an NBA salary of more than $9 million when you factor in the exchange rate and the tax money Delfino won't have to give back.

Delfino in Russia?

Did anyone read Paul Shirley's book? He talks about his dismal days playing in Russia.
