He holds the ball most of the time. He’s an underrated passer, but he has to have the ball in his hands. The Pistons took the ball out of his hands. Bad call.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

At his age, not too many are going to allow that. The guy was a walking turnover last year. That&#039;s why he didn&#039;t get the ball.</description>

Why is that weird for the Celts?Odds are he misses most, if not all of next season with the knee injury.
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I was pretty disappointed when the C&#039;s didn&#039;t make the qualifying offer, but I doubt Powe will get too many offers - he might decide to rehab and then come back when he&#039;s healthy, maybe a late season acquisition for a team.  Hopefully, it&#039;s Boston</description>

&lt;/blockquote&gt;

As what a distraction? The guy plays balls out, but for whatever reason his teammates have never like, nor got a long with the guy. When he&#039;s on the court his teammates play so tight it&#039;s just tough.</description>

It was written before they decided not to. 

Leon Powe is unrestricted. The Celtics made no qualifying offer, thus opening that up.</description>

&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I thought I read Larry Brown saying the Bobcats wouldn&#039;t be a fit for Iverson.</description>

		<description>As I was saying to Sparty earlier, if you&#039;re a free agent, don&#039;t expect to get the money teams have this year.

a) they&#039;re holding out for next summer
b) and most important, a team isn&#039;t overpaying to get a TAD bit better in this economy. Thats why the real contenders (SA, LA, DEN BOS, CLE, and ORL) are going to spend spend spend while the others take it easy.</description>

Leon Powe is restricted.

Juan Carlos Navarro is not coming back to America unless there is some crazy offer from a good team. Barcelona is set to pay him about $15.5 million after taxes and his house and car over the next four years.
