    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">PHILADELPHIA -- The Philadelphia 76ers waived guard Aaron McKie on Friday and signed free agent Steven Hunter.

    McKie will be designated as the team's amnesty player under the NBA's new collective bargaining agreement. That allows the Sixers to release him and remove his contract amount from the team's salary cap for purposes of calculating the luxury tax.</div>

    He is saying that because he was surprised on how well the meeting between Mo Cheeks and him went, he didn't make the decision until after then because he was so impressed with Mo.
