R.C. sure seems like a class act..good luck Malik. This does have seem to speak to how they see Gee, Neal, and Anderson.
Mike Monroe, San Antonio Express-News: "With an opportunity to make guaranteed money for two seasons with the Italian League's defending champion, Spurs swingman Malik Hairston(notes) asked the team to release him from the final, non-guaranteed season of his contract. Having signed free-agent swingman Gary Neal(notes) to a three-year contract last week, the Spurs on Thursday complied with the request. 'We valued Malik and had invested a lot in him, but this is an excellent opportunity for him and we were happy to honor his request,' said Spurs general manager R.C. Buford. Hairston must clear NBA waivers before he can sign a two-year deal with Montepaschi Siena, winner of the past four Italian League les. Acquired on draft night 2008 in a swap of second-round picks with the Phoenix Suns - the Spurs sent the draft rights to point guard Goran Dragic(notes) to Phoenix - Hairston appeared in 62 Spurs games over the past two seasons. He split most of his time between the Spurs, where he averaged 2.4 points a game, and the club's NBA Development League team in Austin, where he averaged 24.9 points. 'We've enjoyed having Malik in our organization,' Buford said. 'He is a hard worker, a talented basketball player and an outstanding young man.'"

Or how much Hairston sucks ass. Potayto, potahto.
That still may be technically copying the E-N.

yahoo would be breaking the copyright laws not me
and all they said was their source was the en

Seeing as they run the advertising on mysa.com, it's probably safe to say Yahoo has permission, so maybe both Hearst and Yahoo can sue.
Off topic:
Did I create some technical difficulties with the thread "Equality on Spurtalk"? I know the thread was getting a lot of post per view but damn I did not think it was that much. I did not expect Kori Ellis to be forced to take the thread off the site due to overload of activity. Or was this a deliberate act to silence the voice of the outcast, to further perpetuate the discrimination that the greys have worked long and hard to over come.
Where in the world did my thread go? Does this even happen? I thought threads just got locked. I need answers.
translation:
"after being called up and then reassigned to d-league 546 times the last few seasons, and doing nothing but warming the bench and watching flat footed scrubs play year after year despite solid contributions when i did actually play, i decided im tired of this "
Indeed.
Ha! So we got Hairston for the same guy who dropped 30 points on the Spurs in the 4th quarter in game 3 during the Phoenix sweep.
Fate is cruel.
They gave us their 2nd rounder for last years draft also.... Which got us Blair. So it was pretty much Dragic for Hairston/Blair.
dragic 1 good game dont mean wtf did he do after that 1 game huh not a goddamn thing malik>rj,dragic,bonner,bogans,mason
Good luck to Malik. I liked having him on the bench here, but the problem was he was super-glued to it.
This is an example of why NBA players consider San Antonio a good team to play for. They are treated fairly and with respect in situations like this.
This is what happens when you keep a consummate professional like Finley around in the locker room too long.

?? Spurs have done this before Finley dropped his request this spring. IIRC, they let McClinton go last fall at his request before training camp so he could catch on in Europe.
