... since they never made use of him in the first place.

Let the 4-way fantasies and ritual objections begin.

The question I have, is why do the Bucks want Luke?

West was stuck in a numbers crunch and as an expiring deal the Sonics had no urgency to play him when what they really wanted was to unload Watson or Ridnour. So taking him back wouldn't be that surprising. Delonte signing with them, however, makes no sense.

Eric Snow's 7+ mil expiring contract makes much more sense as the salary going to OKC, than Joe Smith who makes too little money to go on his own and can still play or Delonte on a 3 year deal.

CLE may open up S&T deals with West that it has shut down to this point in an effort to acquire some draft pick compensation to give OKC.

Yeah, it is a little wack. Delonte didn't seem to like playing in Seattle at all...
