LOL! Gladdy's favorite player.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) -- The Minnesota Timberwolves kept up their aggressive push to upgrade their promising young roster on Thursday, waiving center Darko Milicic and formally submitting their offer sheet for restricted free agent forward Nicolas Batum.

Milicic received the amnesty designation, a one-time provision allowing a team to let a player go without his remaining contract counting against the league's salary cap or luxury tax. The Wolves still must pay the 27-year-old Milicic about $7 million more.

shouldn't have amniestied him, he only saves them $7 mil and they will spend it unwisely

Is this a surprise. LOL! I beat the Heat go after him now. LOL!

Darko Milicic went unclaimed on the amnesty waiver wire and will become an unrestricted free agent.

Woody what is your team doing? LOL!

Darko Milicic has agreed to sign with the Boston Celtics on a minimum deal, according to a source.

The Celtics expressed interest in Milicic when he was amnestied by the Wolves in July.

Celtics got a nice big man in Chris Webber... wait, who made that comparison again?

I don't know why the signed him to that contract. The Wolves front office doesn't have a clue.

But he is the best European player since Dirk!

I would think Pau & Marc Gasol, Tony Parker, Manu Ginobili, Luis Scola, Ricky Rubio, Andre Kirilenko, or any other European player to ever play in the NBA is better than Darko. LOL!
