<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>21st December, 2006 - 9:02 am Atlanta Journal-Constitution - Slava Medvedenko, former big man for the Los Angeles Lakers , went through a private workout for the Atlanta Hawks on Tuesday. "We liked him in the workout," said general manager Billy Knight. "Tyronn Lue and Zaza Pachulia know him. Lue has played with him, and we always reference those things with our guys. So all of the things we saw with him are good and positive." The Hawks roster is currently filled, so the club would be required to waive a player in order to sign Medvendenko.</div> - Real GMHey, I was wondering what had happend to Slava. I guess he recovered from his surgery/injury which was the main reason we had to let him go besides that fact that he was never that great of a player. Here is a great slava moment: http://youtube.com/watch?v=R_PJ5xFQeXg
I actually think that we should pick him up for cheap if we can. He already knows the triangle offense and has played for Phil Jackson and with Kobe already. He would be a good fit to come off the bench but who knows...it might mess up the rotation. Good luck to him if he can sign with the Hawks or any other team.
