What are the odds?

[Inside_Man]

One press report says that immediately after the court decision. The owners went into a meeting INCLUDING BELKIN[!/b]

What are the odds they sign Johnson to an offer sheet without a trade?

I would pay good money to have footage of this meeting

That shouldn't be the question.

The odds of getting Joe Johnson without trading for him are probably 1000:1 at this point, and Belkin knows this. He knows damn well that Phoenix will match the offer, and that's why he is stating that he will go along with signing the offer sheet. It gives the false appearance that he is willing to spend the money when he knows damn well that the Hawks won't land Johnson without a trade.

I shouldn't let something like this get to me. It's been a while since I've lost control with my anger, but this is pushing me to that point.
