Salmons that is incredibly accurate turned down 23 mil because he didnt want to play for toronto. what a dork.

he probably thought it was $23mil in Canadien $.

Sadly, the difference isn't all that great these days.

so much for being a league icon...nobody even wants him...i wonder why

you really have to ask???

hes a under six foot shooting guard in his 30's

hes not going to command a lot right now

no its because he is a cancer and no team would want him.

we've already established that no team wants him...look at the offers so far.

and stop insulting cancer.

no team wants him for what the sixers want in return. for the sixers they dont want another barkley, yet no one is going to give up any young up and coming talent for a guy everyone predicts will decline with a yr or 2. no one wants him? im sure plenty of teams want him as boston even made a serious push, gs, atl, and im sure others we havent heard about. just cause it hasnt been done doesnt mean anything cept the sixers didnt accept the offers as good enough.

hunt · July 24, 2006, 10:46:30 AM

no...they don't want him.
they're only offering longer bad contracts in return for a1...that's what it has come to. he's a shorter contract for a team looking to dump a long term bad deal.

phew.

maybe another offer will surface....if not, i'd reconsider the boston deal. ratliff is washed up but he only has 2 years left on his deal so i'd look at him and some combination of jefferson, green, telfair, rondo, west...whatever they can get.
in 2 years, theo & igy's boy come off the cap.

A lot of teams want AI, it's just a matter of what they would give up. No one respects Billy King, so he's going to get bad offers. That's how deals work. You start off with your worst offer and work your way up. You don't start by offering the whole house, you start small. Eventually AI will be traded. Right now the offers aren't big. Eventually they will get bigger when teams realize the Sixers are ready to start the season with him.

i bet you he starts the year on the team

The BIGSTUD · July 24, 2006, 08:56:40 PM

I think he will too.

BigEd76 · July 24, 2006, 09:30:33 PM

Salmons signs with Sacramento. No compensation for us. yay

MDS · July 25, 2006, 01:31:46 AM

Why the hell havent they traded Dalembert yet? He sucks.

mpmcgraw · July 25, 2006, 01:38:46 AM

who the hell would want him?

Iverson not being traded.

The BIGSTUD · July 25, 2006, 06:56:14 PM

Jasner was on Daily News Live and said Billy King told him he fully expects AI to be here next year. He said that unless the Cavs come out and offer Lebron for AI out something crazy, then AI will most likely be here.

Magical_Retard · July 25, 2006, 11:39:21 PM

sweet.

SunMo · July 26, 2006, 08:33:16 AM

sweet? being below average and maybe making an 8 seed is sweet?
