SONICS SIGN RADMANOVIC TO ONE YEAR DEAL

SONICS SIGN VLADY TO ONE YEAR CONTRACT

As we have reported on 950, KJR’s Locked on Sports for most of the off-season the Sonics and Vlady Radmanovic were unable to find common ground on a long term contract. Instead, today the Sonics signed Radmanovic to the one year tender contract. This makes Radmanovic a free agent after the season. It also restricts the Sonics ability to trade him.
The ideal situation for the Sonics would have been to come a long term agreement. However, the asking price from the Radmanovic camp was more then they were willing to commit to. The Radmanovic camp thought the contracts of Kwame Brown, Tyson Chandler, Samuel Dalembert and Bobby Simmons set the market where the Sonics didn’t feel those were appropriate comparisons.
Dave Bauman, Radmanovic’s agent, said during the process that if Radmanovic signed the tender it was his first step out the door and was a sign of lack of commitment from the Sonics that Radmanovic would not forget going into free agency. Time will tell if that was negotiation bluster or if the Sonics have just taken the first step to losing a key piece.
Radmanovic is also in the news today for a fight he got in with a Serbian teammate at the World Championship in the locker-room after their shocking loss to France.

Does this mean that the odds of Reggie Evans signing a long term deal just increased?

and i made a few minor errors reading the thread and typing. big whoop. i slipped.

what appears to be your false claim of sharing the radmanovic news first seems like a bigger issue. notably you didnt defend or explain your side of that, just started throwing insults. as usual.

it is such a lame repeative act. the only funny part is he thinks he is impressing somebody with it. somebody that thought they could mop the floor in discussion about basketball or race or whatever would just do that and leave out all the crap.

I've stopped by this board a few times. I see an intelligent comment here and there but they get drowned out by the worthless name-calling. I'll stick to better forums.

Yep. Disrespect people by being a clown and a jerk and it doesnt really matter whether you have good points. People will remember you as a clown and a jerk and tune it all out.

Most of the guys in here are probably in their 30s, work minimum wage, live at home and can't get a date.

Vlade's agent is a fool for turning down a six-year, $42 million offer! Maybe his agent missed the NBA 3-point contest - yikes. This guy is always injured (as myk pointed out) and has much to prove. I'm thankful that the Sonics did not up the offer. Let's see if Vlade can back this risky move with his game. I'm betting he doesn't stay healthy for the entire season.

since you did not explain your claim to post the radmanovic news before locke. i assume you are a liar as well as a jerk. you have intelligence but misuse it. if you want me to bring something harder, try this:

Righteousness arises out of wrongs, personal and past, which may be horrible and unforgiveable. It can lead to feelings of indignation and hostility. It is natural. But you have to have self-control of hostility. It will eat up your message and even your righteousness if you let it consume you.. Maintain integrity, live with pride but keep faith with what is right with righteous behavior. Save the energy of hostility for when what is right is truly under attack. Those times come but one must not waste strength. Don’t make more enemies and indifferent bystanders to what is right by doing what is wrong. When you no longer practice righteousness, the right no longer knows you and no longer gives you its strength or protection.

now i will leave. cause this place doesnt do anything for me.
