    Did the 'Cats already pick up the team option though? Or would that even matter now since he's not even a member of the 'Cats?

    Hey man I put a disclosure on my original post. "based on the 5 minutes I've seen"

    Don't worry you'll be killing him soon enough.

    Well everywhere I read it says he's still on the books next year. Hoopshype says it as well.

    Ok so we use him as trade bait next year since it will be an expiring contract and teams want cap space for 2010. Perfect!

    Looks like next year is a team option, which likely means he won't be with us next year, unless he impresses like crazy to end the year and then kills it in the Summer League.

    wait so is it team option or guaranteed.

    First Shape says team option, then guaranteed. Now you say team option? Well Hoopshype says he is under contract.

    Wtf Mamba or huevon get your butts in here and settle this.

    Ok look at this from hoopshype.

    OJ Mayo was a rookie this year 2008 draft? http://hoopshype.com/salaries/memphis.htm

    Year 1 guaranteed 08/09
    Year 2 guaranteed 09/10
    Year 3 TEAM OPTION 10/11
    Year 4 TEAM OPTION 11/12

    Adam Morrison was drafted in 2006

    Year 1 guaranteed 06/07
    Year 2 guranteed 07/08
    Year 3 shouldn't it also be a team option for 08/09?
    Year 4 should also be a team option 09/10

    Year 4 is a team option, and as I found above, the 'Cats did indeed pick it up from what I found, which would mean we're stuck with him.

    I was right Mamba, but I didn't know the Bobcats picked up his option. Anyways I hope he does improve with us, but right now I can't see the upside.

    LOL i know... But Kobe should be able to put up 20+pts while shutting down someone... not shoot 4-12 at the expense of guarding someone. its like he shut himself down too haha... good thing the other guys were phenomenal.

    No point in Kobe forcing it if he doesn't have to. The rest of the team stepped up big time tonight, so Kobe didn't have to explode.
