i would guess that elson is the only guy that has a real chance to stick. as far as who goes, take your pick. probably barry.

All I can say is that it won't be Marshall.

Elson, Griffen, Barry, Newble... roll the dice.

I think they'll cut at least 2 of them. Barry will be one of them, I'm 85% sure on that.

Someone had to be waived to allow the trade. I guess it was Barry?

In order to complete the trade, the Sonics waived Brent Barry to make the necessary roster spots available. Barry was acquired yesterday in a trade with the San Antonio Spurs.

Plenty of teams especially in the west will like elson, a few will like barry... pot luck I suppose.

You'd have to fight Dallas, who has it's full MLE. That is IF, he is released.
