Poor guy. Total pro, solid role player, but no team ever keeps him.

He deserves to be on a better team. Unfortunately things haven't worked out for him since his trip to the Finals with the Magic.

PJ Hairston is a nice pickup for Memphis.

That's 2 playoff hopefuls making key deals today. Interested to see if this changes Danny's short term focus at all
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

you vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about

WHy for either side? Money

Lee is a solid 3+D guy for a playoff team in Memphis.

Charlotte already has Lamb as a two guard who can score that they also just signed.
The Nets will finish with the worst record and the Celtics will end up with the 4th pick.

I agree and may catch some flack for this but I have to wonder if a Walker style return is in the works? I really wouldn't be shocked to see a big man (zeller or Sully if the intent isnt to resign) + Jerebko + 2nd sent to Memphis for Green. Not a sexy move but Green as the Cs backup SF/PF makes them a better match up for Cleveland in the playoffs.

Will be interesting to see if he can pick up his game in Memphis. He reportedly showed up overweight for training camp, and his play this season has been very subpar to say the least.

I thought the same thing.  if Memphis is conceding a deep playoff drive this year with Gasol hurt, then picking up an interesting prospect in Hairston for a journeyman like Lee is good move. 

Lee should add decent backcourt depth for Charlotte to help nudge them closer to the playoffs but it's really uphill for them -- need a player that provides more impact than Lee I think
