The Atlanta Hawks, in a bizarre move, release recently acquired Luc Richard Mbah a Moute.

Mbah a Moute did receive a Hawks hat as a parting gift, since he was not with the team long enough to be fitted for a uniform.

Jason Thompson is going to be a stud. I wish I'd been a quicker draw.

The ORLANDO MAGICS waive PF Elton Brown

THE ORLANDO MAGICS sign FA Power Forward Jason Thompson

A clearly weary Orlando Magics GM Gainesville Celtic held his 4th press conference today to announce the Free Agent signing of PF Jason Thomspon.

"All the GMs in the chat are going crazy over this signing, and with good reason.  I think the quote was "the rich get richer"..."

"You know all that great stuff i said about Elton Brown??? Well forget it!!!  Jason Thompson is a great addition to this team. He's a legit 6-11 and has a good touch and will be learning from the best in Tim Duncan. We tried about a week ago to get Jason Thompson in a trade so to add him from the waiver wire is like a dream come true."

"Ubuntu, Y'all!!" signed off the weary but jubilant MAgics GM as he boarded a plane for Atlanta to see if he too could be signed then waived by the Hawks in exchange for a Throwback Jon Koncack jersey.

  • I left Indiana. Because it was horrible.
Man, I'm not sure I like how waivers work.  Seems completely arbitrary and whoever can't make it is screwed.  Not that I have a better idea, but I could see how this could lead to some petty bickering (not that our group would stoop to that...)
CB Draft Bucks: Chris Paul, Dwight Howard, Tobias Harris, Zach LaVine, Aaron Afflalo, Jeff Green, Donatas Motiejunas, Jarrett Jack, Frank Kaminsky, Lance Stephenson, JaVale McGee, Shane Larkin, Nick Young

DKC Bucks. Also terrible.

Scratch that, Steve beat me to it. [dang] you!

Those are actually your last two draft picks, Steve.  You can add another guy off waivers should you so choose.  Pretty good strategy, even if it was unintentional.  Nice one.

The schedule is here.
