Almost wonder if Ainge may have been playing a little game here. It will be interesting to see if we sign Giddens. Maybe he is the guy who actually has to come prove it in camp and Ainge signs Walker to a 3 year deal.

You mean because of money?

That would be smart, but also a risk. Let's say someone like detroit grabbed him with one of their two 2nd rounders, and refused to sell.

ARGH!!! top ten picks, I will not make judgment until they are holding up jerseys.

I say this because I was in love with the mayo to minny pick. and he was just traded to the Memphis Grizzlies.

Memphis gets:
Draft rights to OJ Mayo
Marko Jaric
ANTOINE WALKER

Minny gets:
Kevin Love rights
Mike Miller
and other guys, not sure on all the details yet.

this was per espn.

So now memphis has both mayo and mike conley, and crittenton.

Wow, every team wants Antoine Walker! In the last five years he has been with six different teams. Is this some kind of record?

Haha, Chris Wallace traded for Antoine.

Guess Big Al's going to keep seeing time at the 5. I like this trade for Minnesota and Memphis, now the Grizzlies just have to deal Conley while they can. Maybe to the Clippers?

He is going to be known as:

Antoine Walker, most notably known for playing with the Boston Celtics, has also played with the Dallas Mavericks, Atlanta Hawks, Miami Heat, Minnesota Timberwolves, and Memphis Grizzlies.

That is hilarious, you can probably add another 2-3 teams in the future I bet.

Celtics are still the Best team Antoine Walker is noted as playing for.
Good Call.

I will go to my grave saying Richard Hendrix should have been a very good NBA player.
