<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>The Milwaukee Bucks signed guard <u>Royal Ivey</u> to a one-year contract on Tuesday, the day after backup point guard <u>Charlie Bell</u> signed an offer sheet with the Miami Heat . "Royal has shown that he can play both the point and off-guard positions," general manager Larry Harris said in a statement. "He has good size and athleticism, and brings a defensive mentality to our roster." The Bucks have a week to match Bell's five-year, $18.5 million offer, and have not ruled out re-signing Bell even though he said Monday he did not want to return to Milwaukee. "The Bucks said they didn't have this kind of money and didn't want to give me a long-term deal, so I would hope they stick to what they said and let me go," Bell said.</div></p> interesting.</p>

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Kidd)</div><div class='quotemain'>We don't have to discuss every move other teams make.</div> </p> sorry, i just HAD to do it. i didn't see it posted anywhere else, and when i saw Royal Ivey, i couldn't stop myself.
Ivey is not an NBA caliber player, I've suffered through plenty of him on the Hawks and the defensive moniker is only because it's better than his offense and thats really not by a considerable amount either. The Bucks need to make nice with Charlie and match that offer, the Ivey signing in no way means the end of Bell in Milwaukee. It actually shows just how badly they need to bring Bell back.
We (as in the staff) don't want to curb your activity, it's great. But I think Kidd is trying to say there are other parts to the site. Feel free to check them out, post there, it's still a smallish type community and easy to get to know others. Some guys who have been here longer can attest they (others on the site) are pretty cool. </p> -Petey</p>

Here's the point: with Charlie Bell, the Heat off season could turn around. </p> They can now use Jason Williams' expiring contract to make another deal, perhaps for Pietrus...or they can do a sign and trade for Bell that would free up some cash for something else. The Heat are trying to get younger and under the tax threshold. THAT matters big time to Nets fans. </p> And Larry Harris is an utter incompetent, not to mention a liar. NO ONE in their right mind would sign Royal Ivey to an NBA contract if there was any chance that Charlie Bell is coming back. </p> </p> </p>
damn..i didn't know this was so serious. this is probably a one-time thing, i just didn't wanna pass up the chance to show that video.
