http://www.globesports.com/servlet/story/R...Basketball/home <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>The Raptors also signed former New Jersey Net Hassan Adams to be a back-up at the wing position. A noted defender and spectacular dunker, Adams was cut in New Jersey because the Nets were up against the luxury tax threshhold after the 2006-07 season and spent last season playing in Europe. He wowed the Raptors at a recent free agent camp and earned himself a one-year league minimum contract with a team option for a second year, much like Jamario Moon did last season. "It's a great fit for Hassan," said David Lee, Adam's agent. "He can lock down ones, twos and threes and will bring the Raptors the kind of toughness they haven't seen in a while." Signing Adams almost certainly means Carlos Delfino, a restricted free agent, won't be back with Toronto. It's expected he may return to Europe to play.</div>

I love Hassan Adams. Anyone remember him on that old LA Clippers show when he was just in high school?
delfino shot 40% from 3 last year right? and the nets are lacking in shooting and depth at the wing position...delfino for the minimum? great pickup by the raptors...hassan is absolutely ferocius in defense ( i remember he would viciously slap the ball (or boki's arm) out of boki's hands everytime nachbar tries to take a shot in practice ) and is a hard worker (when on the court, at least...he has had weight problems in the past)
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>delfino shot 40% from 3 last year right? and the nets are lacking in shooting and depth in the wing position...delfino for the minimum?</div> Im sure Thorn will call., but these European teams are paying pretty good these pays BTW how the hell does Hasan bump Delfino out? I love Hasan but....
Delfino's going to get a pretty substantial offer from a European team and the Raps are limited in how much money they can spend.
If you Raps fans dont know much about him, hes like Tony Romo. Hell make a few dumb plays but you cant stay mad at him
Hassan is one of the best pregame huddle hype men in the league. Just check out some of these moves: <div><object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/X36XWgxUTu0&"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/X36XWgxUTu0&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350" /></embed></object></div>

Good for 'ol Hassan. This could be a real nice signing for Toronto if they do indeed keep him around. I miss him rockin' a Nets uni but it is what it is. Enjoy him Raptor fans.
