Anyone else feel this would be a good free agent pickup for us?

It seems like Flip Murray is available to us every year. There's a reason we haven't taken him, and there's a reason he can't stick with anybody.

It seems like you guys are going to buyout Cassell and sign Murray...

Los Angeles Clippers point guard Sam Cassell is expected to sign buyout papers with the franchise with an hour and he will sign with the Boston Celtics once he clears waivers, according to an NBA source.

Cassell and the Clippers have agreed to buyout terms and is expected to receive some of the money remaining on his $6.1 salary this season.

Once the 38-year old's buyout is official, he has to clear waivers within 48 hours so he can become eligible to sign with another team.

The 6-foot-3, 185 pounder is expected to be waived by Saturday and would be eligible to sign and play with the Celtics in the postseason.

Cassell will not travel with the Clippers to Denver where they face the Nuggets on Friday night.

The Clippers are expected to sign guard Flip Murray, who was let go by the Detroit Pistons, to replace Cassell.

Once the buyout is finalized, Cassell will have 48 hours to clear waivers and sign with another team.

The Celtics are expected to be the front runner to sign the 38-year old guard.

I'd say you have the wrong board, champ.

i want a good shooter for a PG
i mean if we want to replace AC, dont we want someone that shoots better than him. If we dont want a shooter than why dont we keep AC.

If you're looking for shooters, you might as well wait it out until Chucky gets back.

Flip is like an older and less talented JR Smith. No need for him, really.

Gordan Giricek was waived from the Sixers. He would be an excellent pickup (easily the best out there) for the Nuggets.

Now that is a good idea.
