    I am a little surprised they gave up so quickly on him.

    A little surprised they would take that little as well. I know quite a few posters here wanted him during the draft.

    Poor shooter, poor finisher, and doesn't play defense.

    Thought he was drafted because of his defense?

    LOL. I do hope he takes them "over the edge". But not for a title. :)

    After recently trading for 7-footer Fab Melo – the 22nd pick in the 2012 NBA draft – the Memphis Grizzlies waived him on Friday, league sources told Yahoo Sports.

    The Grizzlies could be spared paying Melo the $1.3 million owed him in 2013-'14 if another team claims him off waivers.

    Despite his shortcomings, Melo's size and shot-blocking potential could make him a worthwhile project for a team.

    As one Eastern Conference executive said Friday, "It won't be us, but I think someone will [claim] him."

    How lazy and unmotivated do you have to be to be a 7 footer and on a rookie contract and to be waived? I mean thats what Thabeet was supposed to be and he never got waived and is still in the league.

    France loses today. I hope that means they are done.

    Mark Woods: Nicolas Batum expected to play for France v Lithuania tomorrow despite ongoing treatment for foot problem.

    No, they play at least two more games. See explanation in the Eurobasket thread.
