I wonder if we went and signed Thanasis antetokounmpo next year, would it entice Giannis to come as well.

Ouch, actually he died of a heart attack last year. Probably too soon.

It's funny how Youtube can make someone look really good.

True, but he doesn't have anywhere near the size or athleticism of his two brothers.

With Kostas, you're just hoping he has something that puts him on the court.

Motley to the Clippers. I guess he got squeezed out after all. Good luck to him.

Barry Jackson: Undrafted Arkansas point guard Daryl Macon, who was offered a contract by the Heat after impressing Miami in summer league, has decided to sign with the Dallas Mavericks. 6 hours ago – via Twitter flasportsbuzz

Apparently Macon took an Exhibit 10 contract from us. I really wasn't familiar with that kind of contract so I looked it up. I figured I wasn't the only one who didn't know what it was so I posted it.

Exhibit 10, a new type of deal in the most recent collective bargaining agreement (CBA).

A player who is signed to a contract with an Exhibit 10 will receive a bonus up to $50,000 if he signs a contract with the team's G League affiliate upon being waived from the parent club.

However, there is a catch. A player waived by Oct. 17 must report to his G League affiliate by Oct. 20 and remain there for at least 60 days to receive the bonus (in addition to the G League salary). Unlike last season, when a team would incur a salary-cap hit for players with partially guaranteed money who were eventually waived at the end of training camp, an NBA team will not have a cap charge for the bonus money awarded.

A player signed with an Exhibit 10 can also be converted to a two-way contract by the first day of the regular season. The bonus would then be rescinded and the two-way contract would apply.

Macon is a bulldog. I'm an Arkansas fan so watched him closely the last two years. He's got a little size and can shoot it, but not sure he projects much at the NBA level. He showed some decent flashes with the Heat's summer league squad. Will most likely be a G league type.
