FWIW, it was indeed Arn's article on HuffPo that was on the ticker the other day... the "for his next act" thing, where he ends by asking LeBron to consider the Hawks. ~lw3

Your thoughts on Horford's extension negotiations now that Durant has signed for 5 years, $85 million? How much would you offer total over five years? ~lw3

He's with Al Hilal in Saudi Arabia. Earlier he was with the Leones de Ponce (in Puerto Rico, not Midtown). http://www.asia-basket.com/Saudi-Arabia/basketball.asp?NewsID=191578 ~lw3

Love Dimino talking baseball all day long. That's it. Too much demographic indoctrination over the years from Nick and Steak to have any relevance when discussion turns to the ATL Bird teams. I'd be upset at Kamla for wasting his time. What, was Neal Boortz not available? ~lw3

Soon as I get my $120 mill I'm heading straight to Walter's, first place I go. That aisle of lime green Air Force Ones is mine. ~lw3

Also check out Smoove's stats on NBA.com's HotSpots. Yikes! He's got like one "spot," and you can guess where that is. ~lw3

For those wondering, Orlando's blogger/newswriter (whose opinion is not necessarily that of the team's) suggests J-Will is not likely to be courted as a third PG for the Magicians. http://www.nba.com/magic/news/denton_duhon_070610.html ~lw3

Major star player at PF, eh? hmm... only one such player I can think of that's looking to change addresses. How funny would it be to have Shaq and "The Ru Paul of NBA Big Men" together on the same team? Horf and Bosh can trade the starting C spots from game-to-game, then shift to Diesel when needed. ~lw3

Was DA's notes posted somewhere already? I can delete it, if so.. http://www.nba.com/news/features/aldridge.2010.freeagency/#Shaq ~lw3

That's the Dribble-the-Ball-From-20-Feet-Out-Off-Your-Own-Foot-Kill-the-Clock-and-Launch-a-Prayer-Joe, which is an altogether different Joe. In the flow of the offense, Joe attacking in the lane and drawing contact and getting to the charity stripe will be a definite improvement. ~lw3

Yippee-Cay-Yay! ~lw3

And, as we've learned to this point, Angry Josh does not equal Focused Josh or Better Playing Josh. So Bitter Angry Sulking Josh in another NBA playoff contender's uniform can actually help our odds. Just being hypothetical, I'd still rather he be here growing into the Level Headed and Focused Josh we know he can become. ~lw3

I'll take a season of Catch-and-Shoot-Joe and Drive-the-Lane-for-the-Floater-Joe over Iso-Joe anytime. ~lw3

"should not"? perhaps. "will"? you betcha. If A$G was competing with itself, we'd only have "should not" to work with. ~lw3

At this point I just want to see a roster. Unless Teague is gonna be spending his summer mastering the lost art of the self-oop. Hoopinion's blogpost cited Scott Schröder of Rid Ups, and noted James Augustine may join the Hawks next week anyway after his cup of tea with the Jazz. For any Othello Hunter watchers, he'll be on the Nuggets team. Any of the Utah Flash guys going to make this roster? I wouldn't mind giving Dontell Jefferson, Orien Greene, or Kevin Kruger a spin. ~lw3

And as we've learned this summer, to NBA owners in NY and ATL at the very least, that fact doesn't matter. ~lw3

After Shaq, I'd really like someone at SF to push Marvin for starting time, since he won't mind either way. Since we're on the veteran tip, I'd like this guy, a "Q" who apparently can go to a star's birthday celebration without getting shot... and calls out a good actress job whenever he sees one. ~lw3

Memo to all single chickenhedz ages 35 and up, season tix are on sale now! The Superman logo would look really nice in blue, red, and silver. Just sayin'... ~lw3

http://www.rotoworld.com/content/playerpages/player_main.aspx?sport=NBA&id=1057 Top-notch, eh? Hmmm... I'd make the trip to New Orleans a couple times a year to watch Smoove in action! :) Just see if there's anything other than Mek worthy of getting in return. ~lw3

At this age, his most valuable physical asset for this team will be his mouth. frontcourt rotation: Smoove/Al (starting) Al/Diesel Al/Zaza Smoove/Zaza Smoove/Diesel (repeat) Works for me. Sign him up. ~lw3

Ground Rule Double. Sportswriters had the "Joe Got Paid WHAT?" diatribe in their left drawer, and the "What a town, Atlanta can't even get their own free agents to come there!" diatribe in the other. How we grade A$G+JoeMax+Sund is determined by what happens next. ~lw3

Tried to reverse a few but like Damon Evans I'm "over the limit" on positives. ~lw3
