Dion Glover has found a home. A day after clearing waivers, the former Hawks guard signed a contract with the Toronto Raptors for the rest of the season. Glover asked for his release from the Hawks Wednesday with the intent of joining a contender.
"They're going to make the playoffs, and I've never had the chance at the playoffs in Atlanta," Glover told reporters in Toronto.

The Pistons were fined $200,000 last week for what amounts to little more than a miscommunication. The Pistons thought their two new players — Rasheed Wallace and Mike James — were eligible to play because they hadn’t heard otherwise from the league. The league said the onus was on the Pistons to call and find out whether the deal was complete. Is that really a $200,000 offense? It’s absurd. It presupposes that the Pistons were trying to pull a fast one, trying, in essence, to cheat.
McCoskey calls the fine "Garbage"
If the league wants to fine someone, why not fine New Jersey president Rod Thorn? Tell me this isn’t tampering:
Thorn, when he heard that the Hawks were about to send Wallace to the Pistons, made two phone calls to Atlanta General Manager Billy Knight, trying to talk him out of doing the deal. He told Knight that it was a horrible mistake for the Hawks and that they would be better served using Wallace in a sign-and-trade deal over the summer. Fortunately for the Pistons, Knight and Dumars have an excellent working relationship and Knight rejected Thorn’s self-serving advice. But isn’t that tampering? Isn’t that a finable offense?

ATLANTA (AP) The Atlanta Hawks signed center Mamadou N'diaye to a second 10-day contract Saturday before their game against the Orlando Magic.
In seven games with the Hawks, N'diaye was averaging 2.7 points and 2.4 rebounds as a backup for starter Joel Przybilla. N'diaye also signed two 10-day contracts with Dallas earlier this season but only played in three games.
