    Is David Kahn some kind of Manchurian Candidate?

    In other news, Martell's psychologist just increased the dosage on his anti-depression medication.

    Darko's great in the locker room, though. Perhaps it's a good deal, since Darko can be everybody's friend?

    John Hammond has just been saved from winning the "worst deal awarded during free agency" medal.

    You can go to the Humane Society and adopt a nice puppy for about 100 bucks

    Meanwhile, they're trying to trade Al Jefferson because he's overpaid and doesn't mesh well with KLove in the froncourt. But they met with David Lee anyway, possibly just as bad of a match. He probably realized that and said, might as well lock Darko up early now before he goes back to Europe.

    He's worse than Isiah Thomas.

    Am I the only one who thinks that contract isn't that bad at all?

    $5 mil for a young center that can put up 8/6 off the bench and play decent D on a team that has no other centers isn't that bad.

    Darko actually made them a better team last year when he was there.....that's not saying much though.

    $5 mil per year for Darko is not bad at all.

    It's terrible.

    Webster deserves better than this. This is just cruel and unusual.

    It may pay dividends to sit back and watch all the over-spenders blow their money in the beginning, and scoop up a bargain with the MLE next month....

    In a league where Anderson Varejao gets a $48mil deal and Drew Gooden can get a $32 mil deal, $20 for a guy who can D up and score points from the center position is very reasonable.

    I bet he will put up double double numbers this year. Keep an eye on him for fantasy.

    I have an alternate take. Be wary of guys who don't love the game and have concentration issues putting up a decent-ish season in a contract year ...
