    "RT @TheAkronHammer: Hasheem Thabeet went from No. 2 overall pick to amnesty waivers in 30 months. That's impressive."

    Can anyone confirm this?
    or is this just the expectation if we offer Marc the offer sheet.

    i dont think they will waive him unless they get commitment from gasol first. IF the wave him early gasol may go back to memphis and they will have no center

    If we know that Memphis is going to match for Gasol, why waive Thabeet? I'm feeling a sign & trade agreement in place.

    Goodbye Hasheem(if true).

    Could have something to do with Gasol or Nene.

    We are about to sign a big man. This waive definitely has a meaning behind it other than the fact that he sucks.

    Sounds like they have another center in mind. Gasol? Nene? Dalembert?

    If we amnestied Thabeet and Marc Gasol stays a Grizzle plus Nene signing with another team... Murray really done struck out.

    This is probably just speculation by the reporter.

    So we still have a chance to sign Nene? He will be a great sign but we don't have the cap room for him unless we get rid of some of our contracts.
