Don't let the door hit your ass on the way out!You are not alone. This year, i will root for the Rockets
When asked to comment on the trade of a second round pick for Beno Udrih, McHale responded with..
"Hey, you guys don't get it. Pop tossed in one of his favorite wines for us to do the deal. Which wine ? The one in the box. Besides, I've been making trades all summer. I want a player I can cut and Beno will be fantastic in that role."
Do you think we'll make a move for Juwan Howard or PJ Brown ?
I will root for Chicago and SA too...
Woah, let's not say things we can't take back.
Timvp needs to curb Timvp's emotions.
yes yes yes. and we didnt have to waive him. thanks kevin!
this is n national news, lets go out and celebrate
In the crazy world of NBA salarycapland:
Eq. 1: Beno + cash = protected 2nd-round pick
Eq. 2: Butler + Scola = Spanoulis + 2nd-round pick + cash
now protected 2nd-round pick = 0, therefore Eq. 1 becomes
Eq. 3 cash = -Beno
Combining Eqs. 2 and 3,
Butler + Scola = Spanoulis + 2nd round pick -Beno
Butler = out of league = 0
Spanoulis = out of league = 0
Beno = out of league = 0
therefore,
Scola = 2nd round pick
It all fits together, Q.E.D.
I am going to miss partying with Beno and the guys.
Bliss just won't be the same without him.
Especially drunk nights at Las Palapas.
Oh well.
You are not alone. This year, i will root for the Rockets
Manumaniac...your thoughts?
Holy , this week will be such ing win.
Monday: Beno gets traded. ST celebrates.
Tuesday: NBA starts. Life=better
Wednesday: Halloween. Shagia is ed at for scaring neighborhood chlidren.
Thursday: Last day of work for the week.
Weekend: Anime con.
I believe he also got cut by the wolves...
We managed to get rid of the two most useless contracts we had on the books. We managed to keep our 1st rounder this year in Spain to polish his skills and be a monster next year. We dumped our 2nd rounder who wasn't good enough and non-guaranteed. We got cash for VSPan and signed Udoka, et all with it.
We are LEAN and MEAN!!!!
The Wolves traded a conditional second-round pick to the Spurs for money and guard Beno Udrih. The Wolves waived Udrih and the pick will be lost only if the Wolves finish with one of the four top records in the NBA this season.

Holy crap.
Talk about a safe pick.
I know I'm late to this party, but after the ty day I had, this news makes me so happy that I want to cry.
So there's a chance.

I'm sorry you had a bad day.
Considering the whole "2006" pick, are we sure it's not "one of the four worst"?So there's a chance.
That would make some sense, actually.
Why would the Wolves be concerned with protecting picks in the high 50s?
Why would a team trade for a guy and then waive him? How in the does that save money? Someone care to explain?
Spurs sent cash, too.
, I'd of sent cash, some Santikos movie tickets, some Pace Picante, a case of Shiner.. whatever!
The 2008 Master Plan lives!So there's a chance.
Two questions for everyone
1) Did the wolves send us a trade exception back, or were they far enough under Salary Cap just to eat beno's contract. If they did send us a trade exception, how big?
2) Sure, the pick is protected in 2008. But what is the protection in 2k9 and 2k10? Remember, protected draft picks don't just dissapear. THey need to wait some number of years that I don't recall right now (either 3 or 5) before they become void...
That sounds like a GTG.
Didn't the Chicago pick disappear this past year, or do we get it this year if they finish in the top 8? As far as the Timberwolves' pick is concerned, even if it lasts for 3 or 5 years, I don't think they'll finish with a top four record.
