George traded to OKC for Oladipo and Sabonis.  That seems to be less than what the Bulls got for Butler.  It doesn't mean that GarPax are excellent either.

George is a FA after the year and is telling everyone he's headed to LA. It's a one-year rental.

That is fair, but Butler only has 2 years of control before he can opt out. I think GarPax suck, but the Butler trade could really have been the best offer and another two years of being an 8th seed isn't appealing.

Well, they sure won't be an 8th seed anymore.

Hopefully they'll be the worst team in the NBA....

Even then you still have to win a lottery.

Picking up on some posts that were made when Arnold Palmer died last September, Tom Callahan has a new book out simply titled Arnie.  Here is an excerpt from it:

Quote
Two men from Chicago, Jeff Roberts and Wally Schneider, were serving in Vietnam and wrote to Palmer seeking help with their bunker shots (when they weren't shooting from bunkers). Palmer not only replied, he sent two sand wedges and golf balls, along with his sincere wishes for a safe and speedy return.

Roberts went to the Western Open when he got home. He waited for Palmer outside the clubhouse at Olympia Fields and told him that he was one of the soldiers to whom Palmer had sent the sand wedges in Vietnam.

"Are you Jeff or Wally?" Palmer said to him.

I knew an old man who had met Palmer and he said he was as nice as you could have ever hoped.

The NCAA doesn't have nearly as much on the program as the press would have you believe.

Ironic that Houston Nutt and the Freedom of Information Act were his downfall.

Great coach and great recruiter, shame it ended like this...

And I would root for Isis over the Vols...

I loved that Dave.

I use that same line in regards to the Florida Gators.

Irving asks for a trade. Sure wish the bulls had Butler around to make a run at irving.
