It's becoming common courtesy in the NBA for GM's to buy sought after guys out who aren't playing before the playoff deadline. I'm sure they talk and know the favor may come back to them someday.Mr. Sun wrote:There is zero evidence the Sixers are considering buying him out. His salary is $4 million. I'd assume he have to take less for any buyout. Sixers do have to release 2 players I believe. So it might be him?

I would be interested to see him get some time outside of Utah. Jerry Sloan has been known to beat guys down and he could have a bit of a rebirth under MD. I wouldn't be surprised if he played well under the freedom that this system allows.

As a Jazz fan who watched Giri for 4 years, I'll tell you right now, Giri is an atrocious defender. He dances around and makes it look like he's playing D, but he ends up using his hands. To be honest, Korver is a BIG upgrade defensively from Giricek.
He is a very streaky shooter and likes to create his own shot. He does a pump fake move which gets called for traveling 95% of the time, which was Jazz fans main complaint.
Giri is a nice guy and would probably do a lot better in your system than Sloans. Give him a shot.

carrer average: 1,36 TO Per Game
every Suns player (with playing time), except Raja Bell, has more TO!
