    I hope they don't get rid of DA. I'm sure Cleaves is gone at the moment too. if we get rid of BRob or Illic, we can definitly get Hite, who I think is worth having.

    I'd be really surprised if Armstrong got cut</p>

    So weird. Just as I had this thread open, I was watching Scrubs, and the head doctor just said "Another one bites the dust".</p>

    Too bad to see him go, I wish he coulda stayed to help this team. Then again, I wouldn't be surprised if he got hit with injuries as soon as the season began.</p>

    Really thought he might have got the end of the bench. Oh well.</p>

    Well he got paid and it sounds like a guarantee. Most money around the league has already washed up. Where's that money for Ilic? Bring him home.</p>

    I like Jumaine Jones. He must've aged badly in the last two or so seasons to get to this point.</p>

    Jones has really fallen off, going to Charlotte, than Phoenix. At least a Euro made him a nice offer.</p>

    Yeah, Jones was pretty good in Charlotte. He came to Phoenix and got injured, which basically left him riding the bench for a whole season. Then, when he got his chance with the Nets, he had a couple injury problems, and didn't really show what he did in Charlotte and LA. I'm disappointed with him.</p>
