    Well if you guys really wanted to, you could go after a guy like Joe Smith for a short contract, but I think him and the Bulls are working something anyways. Alexander Johnson got waived, he could be a guy to camp on the bench and see if he can be something for the team.

    This is a big loss... How much did they give him?

    ^He got the full MLE for 3 years! Not a good deal for the Kings at all. I remember watching a Access with Ahmad Rashard speical on Moore. I gained some respect for him after that show, he worked his ass off in the D-League and turned down alot of money from the Pistons to go to the D-League to get better. So, why go for the money now?

    I would not say no to ~$15+ million.

    What now? The Nets need to go after Magloire if he is still out there. Heck, maybe they don't need to do anything; they just drafted Sean Williams and have Boone, both players who have something to prove and will probably play their butts off more than what ever veteran the Nets bring in.

    Not a huge loss in my book. The only reason he was so productive is because he had JKidd running the offense, and the Kings will find that out shortly.

    I guess he was misquoted, or the feeling of getting more money got to him. I did post an article, where it was mentioned, that the Nets gave him only a certain amount of time to accept the money. I'm sure that had something to do with his decision. Oh well, time to move on.

    Not a big loss. Mikki was great as a spark plug, but sans a few great games, didn't do that much. Nenad will replace his outside shooting, but now we need to focus on signing Magloire.
