Nate McMillan has been offered more to coach Portland than the $4 million annually Seattle has offered him to return. McMillan can negotiate after Thursday but is torn because his son is a top high school player as a sophomore and McMillan wants to remain close by. ... Flip Saunders is said to be the Pistons' top choice if Larry Brown leaves. At a charity fundraiser recently, Saunders auctioned off four tickets to a game in the city where he is coaching next season. ... The news continues to be bad for the Grizzlies, with starting center Lorenzen Wright requesting a trade after being denied a contract extension. ....

the players are at it already....

Watch, no one will pick up Flip and he winds up coaching high school. "I got four tickets to the James Madison High Fightin' Superchimps game tonight!"

"Hmmmm", Lorenzen?

I don't know unless he came cheaper than Rasho. I consider them about equal, with an edge in mobility to Wright.

I like Wright. He's not the greatest shotblocker or rebounder but he's fairly mobile, decent hands, and pretty active in the paint.

He is publicly requesting a trade. Possibly not spurs material.

He's entereing the last year of a 7 year, $42 million contract. I'll bet he wants more than Rasho money.

Trade suggestions were floating around here yesterday about picking up Wright. I don't know, seems like an unneeded roster shake up if we were to ship one our bigs out there for him.

He has an expiring contract so he meets Holt Cat's talent requirement.
