i doubt there will be news at 12 at night...the gordon situation will not be resolved in the first minute of free agency!.. this will probably carry out for a bit..

Important Ben Gordon fact...

He has played all 82 games 3 times in his 5 year career and has only missed a total of 12 games. That is simply a remarkable testament to physique, toughness and hard-work.

Whoever pays him will have the security that he will be putting in full seasons.

Touché

Little known fact - Morten can type in English, but can't speak a word of it.

Correct.

Whenever I try, apparently 'Viking' comes out. A language I also have yet to master.

Absolutely right, people forgot to mention that, he's solid.Thats why he will be paid by chicago, I except them to give him at least 12 millions over 5 next years considering what he didn't receive this year and what he refused previous year...

Yes, it is true. Like many Euro types, Morten has a bushy mustache and a unibrow and poses for pictures on the beach with two thumbs up while wearing an electric green body thong.

No, I take it back. Morten is the ORIGINAL (accept no substitutes) I KISS YOU!!! guy.

I'm just guessing, he may be a tad bit blonder, but I think the general certain je ne sais quoi is on point.

You are asking he could not do a trade that you just made up, so it doesn't really exist.

I need subtitles for this.

And Pax doesn't have the fiasco, Boozer created the incident and screwed over his brother, helping him lose his job.

Now, if you can find a way for Boozer and Brand to be teammates, that would rock.

it is actually amazing how little time he has missed considering how hard he thuds the ground when he falls. i have never seen a less graceful athlete consistently hit the ground with more authority than him. i literally feel it in my throat through the TV when he hits the ground.

David Lee's days in New York are effectively over, said a source who believes that agent Mark Bartelstein will find the Knicks' choking point and exceed it by a dollar in negotiations with Oklahoma City and/or Memphis. "It's a tough loss for New York, but they don't want to screw up their 2010 plan," the person said. The money will be there for Lee, especially now that Boozer is off the market. The only reason for Lee to think twice is the added bang for the buck he's gotten out of playing in New York. He won't be a known commodity anymore in OKC or Memphis.

Look like someone else said it before me. The NFL has it at EST time also and players actually sign 30 minutes after.

Do you like 10:00 AM NFL games? I don't think I would.

I have a feeling the Gordon negotiations will take a while. We've been trying to sign him long term the last two years.

If they're serious, they'll get it done quickly.

OOOH! They are the BEST! And Monday night football ends on.....MONDAY!

I moved from Philly to Oregon and one of my big joys is early sports. Read the Sunday paper and watch football? Yeah baby

I'll just check Kevin Love's Twitter throughout the night to see if anything's happening anywhere.
