Hobson

I know a few people liked him pre-draft for this team and so when I came across this:

hoopsworld wrote:To say Bucks' ownership was not pleased with the situation surrounding Hobson is an understatement, mainly because Milwaukee has a track record of paying guys not to play due to injury and in Milwaukee with their revenue situation that's an issue for ownership.

The Bucks have guaranteed some of Hobson's $473,604 contract, and are handling his medical expenses. His deal has trigger points in which more dollars are guaranteed the longer he remains on the roster, but there is a very real chance that Hobson is going to be cut as the season progresses, mainly to recover the roster spot.

I thought it's worth mentioning. Is there any interest, from the fans, to maybe pick him up if he gets released? He won't be ready to go until next year but locking him up might not be a bad thing, especially if Rambis likes or liked him for the system which he does seem to fit on paper.

The only bad thing would be that it takes up the last roster space for a player that won't be contributing. Although, they could always just cut Telfair.

But what are your thoughts? Is this the kind of no risk move that Kahn should be making?

What do we want with another 3?

We got Webster, Brewer, Beasley, Johnson, Hayward and Ellington on the wings with Bjelica still oversea's. I don't think we should add anyone else on the wings unless that player is a serious upgrade (preferably a SG then).
