The Bulls front court is getting crowded... I wouldn't be surprised if they moved Gibson before the season.

Decent price for Wright, figured he'd get more than 6 in this market.

Anyone know what the Hawks gave up for Splitter? I can't find it anywhere. I mean usually in a trade, both sides give something up, no one is reporting anything exchanged.

Tiago Splitter's goodbye message. Damn. Now I'm sad he's leaving

quote:

tgo_splitterI want to announce that I have completed my cycle in San Antonio Spurs. This way, I end a glorious stage with the Spurs Family, that I started 5 years ago, and in which I've accomplished something as unique and amazing as winning a Championship. From the first moment when I came to this city, I felt the love and warmth of its people, so I can only thank you all. Here I grew up as a player and person. During these years, we went through unforgettable moments, the hardest and the happiest ones. I'll take them for my whole life. I would like to express all my Respect, Admiration and Gratitude to my coach and mentor Gregg Popovic for his confidence and tremendous professionalism. Also, I would like to thank all the employees of this great family, who always showed their love, gratitude and respect to my family. I have also to thank my teammates for everything they teached me during these years. Thank you very much for your endless generosity. Finally, I would like to show my sincere thanks to the fans for their support during all these years. They've always been faithful regardless of the outcome! I wish all the best to everyone who keeps working and fighting for this Great Spurs Family. Thank you all, I will never forget you!
