Does this mean the Mahinmi is expired?

Larry Sanders is a very good addition if he signs at the veteran minimum.
Bye bye Beal.

No. If anything it makes Mahinmi want to get healthy sooner.
Bye bye Beal.

I think this means that the Wiz don't expect Mahinmi to return anytime soon (this season).

I like Sanders, his game always reminded me a bit of Dennis Rodman. Gortat is playing way too many minutes, getting somebody with his upside could be a boon for the team.

One Ben says yes, the other Ben (Standig) says the report is false according to a close source on his podcast. Either way, it does appear that they have little faith that Mahinmi is going to return this year.

Yup.

I don't trust players who don't appear to like basketball very much. Sanders walked away from a huge contract and a starting role. That's not a guy you take on unless you have absolute confidence in your locker room. I don't think we're there yet.

Pairing up the Sanders with the Marky Mo
And firing up the VC like a stick of moto
Gotta see them execute the cop and roll
Watch them put the flame to the lower bowl
I'm hearing your objections but I just don't feel ya
Skieffers bring the heat like a blaze of sinsemilla
Add LaSand to Kieff and put the boil to the pot
And when Brooks says, "Got it?" they'll both say, "What?"

Noted. You on the side of Hope vs Dope
Like how just annointed our american Pope
or King or Despot (gag when I say president)
(hoping he don't even last as a 4 year resident)
Sanders, the demand is solid, understood
Keif my belief is he's half a hood
still unconvinced itd do us good
the same trepidation I had when they traded
smoke the DC weed and see if you stay motivated.

I dunno.

Oh and you just got inducted or abducted to the poetry thread,

For the first time in Ernie's 13 years here, the Wizards can actually be seriously considered as destination for a player like Sanders to return to an NBA playoff team. If Ernie had not blown his off-season load on his Front Court signings, this could have potentially worked-out nicely for us....and it still can, at-least for this year. But I suspect Sanders will want to go to a team where he can be part of the rotation and perhaps be the #1 or 2 C.
