Before Antoine Walker filed for bankruptcy and before he got in trouble numerous times for writing bad checks and driving himself into debt, ‘Toine could play a little. Now when I say play a little, I mean he wasn’t going to win you a championship, but he could average 20, 9 & 4 for you and give you weekly nights of feast and famine.

For Mozgov, it’s good to see him dishing out some of that stuff that Blake Griffin used on him.
Rumors of Ron Artest playing in the UK were met with skepticism. The league he’s aiming for is probably the worst in all of Europe, and the team doesn’t even have the money to satisfy Artest. But now officials with the team he is signing with, the Cheshire Jets, are offering to help Artest with his career off the court.
