He won a title with Miami, was All-Star in 1998, 2002 and 2003, and was on the All-Rookie First Team in 1997.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Arial">Sadly, Walker's post-NBA life has been marred by legal troubles and financial ruin, no doubt inspiring him to work hard to make a comeback in one of the few vocations where financial issues can get resolved quickly.

For all the talent they've signed on, they still don't have a starting-quality shooting guard. Fernandez could be that, leaving players like Korver, Brewer, and Bogans in the reserve roles where they probably belong.</span></span></div><div style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Obviously, Chicago has decided that the scales measuring risk and reward are leaning more towards this being a good thing, but first the Blazers have to figure out what they can get for their talented Spaniard on the open market.

style="font-size: small;">Mavs owner Mark Cuban confirmed that the 6-footer, who last year played for Maccabi Tel Aviv, will be in camp. Brown will come on a non-guaranteed contract.

"He sido bendecido con la oportunidad de formar parte del Training Camp de los Dallas Mavericks. No tengo contrato asegurado, pero estoy muy agradecido a la organización por darme esta oportunidad de ganarme un sitio".<br /><br />Mark Cuban confirmó que el base de 26 años hará la pretemporada con los Mavericks con un contrato no garantizado. Brown (6'0, 185 Lbs) se caracteriza por ser muy rápido, penetrador y muy luchador.<br /><br /></span></span></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Lo más posible es que su presencia se deba a la baja por lesión de Rodrigue Beaubois, quien se perderá la mayor parte de la pretemporada y quizás también el inicio de Temporada Regular con una fractura en el pie. Una vez Roddy esté recuperado, veremos si Brown ha conseguido convencer a los Mavs de que debe quedarse.<br /></span><br /></span></span><div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-size:medium;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px; font-size:medium;"><br /></span></span></div><div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img style="width: 236px; height: 236px;" alt="http://www.layoutlocator.com/graphics/dldimg/7d1e900d195f036b894f03a5005f204c_dee_brown_arton23658_220x220090607051839.gif" src="http://www.layoutlocator.com/graphics/dldimg/7d1e900d195f036b894f03a5005f204c_dee_brown_arton23658_220x220090607051839.gif" /> </div></div></div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1904797642989654566.post-1151815647718568382010-09-02T14:23:00.000-07:002010-09-08T12:10:06.560-07:00Etan Thomas to Hawks / Etan Thomas a Hawks<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 21px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Hawks assistant general manager D</span></span><strong style="font-style: normal; font-weight: bold; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">ave Pendergraft</span></span></span></strong><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> confirmed the team had Thomas in for a workout and said Thomas is one of a handful of free agents the Hawks are considering. </span></span></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 21px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">“We were pleased with the workout.” he said.</span></span></span></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 21px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"></span>Now they finally signed him, to complete the roster.</span></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 21px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Listed at 6-foot-10 and 260 pounds, Thomas is known as a tough, physical post player who plays with high effort.
