    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Memphis point guard Chucky Atkins, a free agent at the end of the season, said he's interested in returning home to Orlando to play if the opportunity presents itself.

    "I would love to come back and play here for the Magic," Atkins said before the Magic/Grizzlies game. "This is my home. They have a good young team with a lot of potential, and I certainly could add to that mix, give them some veteran help. We'll just have to see how it plays out this summer."

    Atkins has played for the Magic, Pistons, Celtics, Lakers and Grizzlies in his career. This season, he is averaging 13 points and 4.3 assists, mostly as a reserve as they try to play their young guys.</div>

    I'd take him over Arroyo, but I would prefer a bigger backup pg.

    You beat me to it.

    It amazes me that Chucky Atkins still has a place in the NBA. He's a 6'0" shoot-first point guard that's never played defense in his life. He's a total liability. It's amazing that teams continue to let him run the point, because he's the most selfish player in the league and his shot selection is horrible.

    Hopefully you guys will never find out what I'm talking about.

    Jameer, Arroyo and Diener don't play any defense either. He fits right in.

    Wow, if you want to downgrade your point guard position, then look no further than Chucky Atkins. An even more shoot-first guard than Arroyo or Nelson. The guy has ass clown written all over him.
