Big Slam, One of the players that you\'ve been hyping is now off the board.

I saw that. It\'s missed opportunity for us but in saying that, the Raps over paid for him. I\'m not sure he is a $5 mil a year for 5 years type of player. I would have given him a 3 year deal and a team option on a 4th.

I guess having Crash, Ammo, Hammer and Ando wouldn\'t leave a lot of room for Salmons any way.

What I would HATE to see though is for Flop Murray to be brought in and paid the same sort of money when we could have had someone with more overall ability like Salmons.

Flip Murray wouldn\'t surprise me at all. I think he meets their one biggest prerequisite (they can get him cheap).
This bugs the crap out of me. We\'re 6 million under the cap, and the Bobcats haven\'t done a thing in free agency.

looks like theres a hold up in that Salmons to the Raptors deal

Salmons has offically pulled out of the Raps deal.

He will now become an unrestricted free agent and is back on the market available to anyone who wants him.

Get him on the phone BB!!

Bernie & JB are too busy hanging out at Kevin Burleson\'s house watching Hannah Montana, popping popcorn and painting each other\'s toenails to get Salmons on the phone

Looks like Salmons is heading to the Kings.

Yet another missed oportunity for the Bobcats.
