yeah, I know. I just like Hart better than Wilks, especially if Beno inst feeling it some nights.
Wilks hasnt signed back yet or has he?
I was talking about Brent Barry as the third (and possibly second) PG.
Parker/Barry/Beno
The Kings had a trade exception. The Spurs would have had to trade back a player.Quote:

Terms of the deal were not released. Brunson played with the Los Angeles Clippers last season, but had his rights renounced by the team Wednesday.
"Rick's playmaking ability, ball handling skills and size make him a nice complement for our team," Seattle general manager Rick Sund said in a statement. "He is a true point guard and I think he and Luke Ridnour will give us a good tandem at that position."
After never playing more than 59 games in a season, Brunson appeared in 80 games last year for the Clippers. The 6-foot-4 Temple graduate averaged 5.5 points and was ninth in the league in assist-to-turnover ratio.
Brunson previously played for Portland, New York, Boston, Chicago and Toronto. He started his career with the Trail Blazers in 1997.
Brunson should take Antonio Daniels' role as the back up to Ridnour. Daniels recently signed a five-year, $30 million deal with the Washington Wizards.
Would've been a nice 3rd PG for IR.
What's funny is that he'll probably be their 2nd PG behind Luke.
The Sonics really hit the skids this offseason.
That's okay though. It's good that they are losing a lot of players for someone I know. :)
Yeah, he's gonna have to carry more of the load. What's going to be funny is how quick he drops the 'team leader' schtick he had going on last season now that he's been paid.
Rick Brunson is terrible.
