Heck if he'd suited up, even MJ coulda hung at least 20 on the Wizards in front of the home crowd LOL

RE: Duke in the NBA

The only numbers that matter for Henderson right now:

2011-12: $2,250,600.
2012-13: $3,101,326 [Team Option].
2013-14: UFA 

Translation: He has a guaranteed salary (MJ's not dumb enough to not exercise the option) of $3 Million next year if MJ keeps him (or better yet if MJ trades him) then his contract is up. That's when his numbers on the court really matter so he can get the h3ll out of the mess MJ has built in Charlotte.

RE: Duke in the NBA

Henderson is the only quality player on the Bobcats roster. Gerald shouldn't have to pay the price for MJ's cheap, idiotic personnel moves

RE: Duke in the NBA

Bump.

Meantime Lawson (32 pts/6 asts/5 rebs) leads the Nuggets past the Lakers to force Game 7.

Congratulations Elton Brand, Doug Collins, Shane Battier and Dahntay Jones for making it to the 2nd round.

Dallas 0-4 flameout due to these three players

Brendan Haywood 15.3 mpg 3.3 ppg

Haywood failed to make an impact during the regular season and wasn't any better in the postseason, totaling 13 points and 13 rebounds in Dallas' four-game sweep at the hands of the Thunder.

Spin: Haywood is a top-candidate for Dallas' amnesty clause and likely played his final game in a Mavs uniform. With Tyson Chandler's departure, Haywood was expected to grab the reins at center. He was inconsistent and often was benched in favor of Ian Mahinmi

Vince Carter .293 fg% 8.3ppg

After a decent regular season, Carter regressed in the playoffs shooting 29 percent from the field and scoring in double-digits just once.

Spin: Carter is no longer the player he once was but proved he can be serviceable as a reserve.

Brandan Wright 6.8 mpg 1.3 ppg

And a belated fare-the-well to JJ Red-eye and Detrimental Dooohon of the Tuesday eliminated Magic.

And a belated fare-the-well to Marvin Williams, the latest "bona fide bust" from UNC.

Amnesty Watch: Why Atlanta Hawks Must Rid Themselves of Marvin Williams
By David Daniels on May 10, 2012

Fire and forget.

Marvin Williams is a bona fide bust. The Atlanta Hawks didn't select the 6'9'', 245-pound wing second overall to be nothing more than a capable starter. This summer they must use their amnesty clause on Williams and erase the evidence of their gaffe.

At the beginning of the season, ESPN labeled the former Tar Heel a likely amnesty casualty. But before I dive into why the Hawks must fly Williams out of ATL, let's clear the air of one misconception.

Joe Johnson isn't an amnesty candidate.

Yes, he's overwhelmingly overpaid. His release would grant salary cap relief equivalent to that of what the chair at the end of the Miami Heat bench experiences when Eddy Curry stands up. As splendid as that feeling is to imagine, it isn't realistic.
According to HoopsWorld, Atlanta still owes Johnson an average of approximately $22 million over the next four years. While that mammoth figure would vanish from the team's salary, it's super-glued to their payroll. I don't care if Donald Trump is part of the ownership-lighting around $90 million on fire isn't bright. Atlanta must cling on to Johnson no matter how painful of a burden he'll be to carry. But at least he's talented enough to be a top-three player on a championship-caliber team. And you can't say the same for Williams.
