    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Milt Palacio, who played 71 games in his only season with the Jazz, has told the Seattle SuperSonics that, unless he receives a last-minute offer of guaranteed money this week, he will accept their non-guaranteed contract and report to training camp next week, the Seattle Times reported Wednesday.
    Palacio averaged 6.2 points and 2.7 assists last season and even started 18 games for Utah. But his roster spot as the team's backup point guard disappeared when the Jazz acquired Derek Fisher from Golden State in a July trade. </div>

    Utah's gm should never let Palacio go.

    To be serious though, he's a good enough player to recieve a guaranteed contract. That kind of surprised me. There's lots of teams that could use him as a 2nd/3rd point guard. But, Seattle seems the least likely with Watson and Ridnour already there.

    Yeah, they're in Europe [​IMG]

    The Miltness has been misused here in Utah, and was only brought in to mentor C.J. "The Calvin" Miles. He has picked up some of the Jordanesque type skills Milt brings to the table. Now lets hope the young grasshopper becomes as great as his master, if not better.......

    And if one of those two gets injured? Every team needs three guys who can run the point.
