Mikki Moore to be bought out (rumor)

[Lucky17]

According to Sacto's RealGM boards, but the source seems to be credible.

This is obviously from ESPN.com

Marc Stein: Chicago's Thabo Sefalosha is headed to Oklahoma City for one of the Thunder's five stockpiled first-round picks in the next two drafts.

• I'm also told that Sacramento will be releasing Mikki Moore after the Kings were unable to include him in any trades before the deadline. Given the leaguewide need for big men, there figures to be a fair bit of interest in Moore once he clears waivers. Expectation is high that he will wind up in Boston, reports ESPN The Magazine's Ric Bucher.

• The Kings have also agreed to a minor deal with Toronto in which they will receive guard Will Solomon and cash considerations for a future second-round pick.

I think i'd rather have the Phone Booth.  At least he's got some meat on his bones and won't get pushed around so easy.  I am NO mikki moore fan.

Wait is that Boo - or Moo-reeee.....

I'd rather have Joe Smith, thanks.  Moore isn't that good.

Even if you think that he stinks but he would be the best player on our bench over 6'10

Nice hair, plays hard, too skinny, but better than POB.

Someone like Moore might not be on the open market for long. So does Danny jump all over him, which baffles me as Moore is mediocre at best (16 mpg, 3.5ppg, 3.3 rpg)but is the coveted 7 feet tall mark, or does he wait it out for Joe Smith ? I don't know how I feel about "missing out" on Mikki Moore, we need the size as we now have 0 7ft's on the team. God this is killing me

[LarBrd33]

I think ESPN just has a running joke where if any player is possibly being bought out, they automatically just say, "sources say he'll end up in Boston" ...

I'm convinced they are just cracking each other up over there.

I'd like him in the locker room, but we don't need another veteran leader with the Big 3 filling those roles.  I would like him a lot more if he was a strong defender or better rebounder.  He's better than what we had, but I have higher expectations than Mikki.  I'm also pretty sure that he dots the i's in his name with little hearts.

Roy, I'm feeling to lazy to look this up in Coon's FAQs, but if Smith is bought out  can teams claim him off waivers? Will Cleveland be able to do that?

Didn't the Celtics essentially do the same thing by getting rid of POB?
