Not a staggering loss or anything, but why didn't we sign him? Did he not want to come back? I thought he was alright last season, and he did have that one good game in the playoffs.

Two years at the minimum don't seem bad at all. :-?

He's essentially replacing LeBron on the Cavs so it was a good choice for him to get minutes, whilst we have added Harrington.

The 3 spot should be ok to find anyway... would love to find a vet somewhere that's achieved something (not Malik Allen or AC).

As long as Balkman gets plenty of play this will be fine. I just hope the FO doesn't take for granted what role players do for the team.

we added harrington who plays the same position(s)....and already have balkman as a benchwarmer to play the same positions as well.

rather have the roster spot for another true big guy. even a d-league all-star level one.

Are you on crack? Joey had a better handle than Melo and looked better in the final games of the playoffs against the Jazz. The team should have traded Melo and kept Graham.... :lol:

He doesn't fit anymore, so what Corona said was spot on, but he was too nice about it. Graham is gone because he doesn't fit the team going forward.
