<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Getting Closer George Karl expressed optimism that point guard Chucky Atkins could make his season debut Friday against Portland or Sunday against Sacramento. Atkins, though, was a bit more conservative. "I'm day to day, man," Atkins said. "I can't sit here and tell you exactly what day I'm going to play, but I can tell you that I'm close and I definitely hope to be playing before the end of the month." "I'm definitely close now, closer than I've probably been," he said. -- Rocky Mountain News</div>
I don't think Atkins is even that good. They should've tried harder to keep Blake around. Although, it's obvious he'll be important for this team now...since they don't really have any other PG.
Steve Blake would be an awesome PG for the Ws right now. Sadly, he costs $4.5M and not available. Maybe the W's can find Dickau or trade for Sergio Rodriguez up in Portland.
