    Via ESPN's coverage of FIBA, we get:
    I guess having him on board would make trading an Kirk easier pill to swallow. And if the opportunity cost is Aaron Gray, it's probably not that high. At least unless he's finally gotten his fat ass in shape.

    We don't need a point guard, we've got a guy we need to trade, a backup shooting guard, and a 40 year old assistant coach.

    We don't have a shooting guard, either.

    Arroyo always struck me as having a skill set that was more valuable in the international game than in the NBA. I remember him taking apart USA Basketball in the World Championships a couple of years ago. The rules/game is different overseas and sometimes what works in one doesn't necessarily work in the other.
