BREAKING NEWS: Ukranian Savage Beast Passes on HOU Offer, Will be in Camp Tomorrow

No not entirely aware. I'm not the one who called fes an idiot for turning down "more" money. Calling a person a moron after he used the word idiot while not understanding the nuances of contract terms doesn't make me an *******. Finally calling Archie out after veiled threats also doesn't make me an *******.
I must have missed the story, but why do you get so riled up about Fesenko subject matter?
 
If the second year would have been guaranteed you would have been right. It WASN'T! Houston and/or Utah assuming they matched would have been able to cut Fes all the way up to January 2012 in which case Fes would be without a job and with all of the teams most likely with rosters that wouldn't require his services. Yeah that's great isn't it? How bout the fact that if he is under contract he can't play in Europe next year when there is by all accounts most likely a lockout. Hmmmm. Dude you are a moron. Just because you can't see the bigger picture doesn't mean it isn't there.

Imbecile, you needed just an ounce of intelligence to read my post in context, which was a response to Kenwood's statement: "Can he make up $2.9M in 2011-2012? Time will tell, but as an unrestricted FA, he won't be tied down by a QO and he will have a better chance." Turns out one ounce too many for you. Looks like alarmingly low intellect is something you and Fess both have in common.

+1. I especially liked the last sentence part.
 
In his description of Fesenko, I guess Hollinger didn't get the memo about +/- vs. the Lakers.

Fesenko hardly played in the regular season but started nine playoff games after Okur went down. He was unspeakably awful, averaging 7.3 points and 8.6 rebounds per 40 minutes and finishing with more turnovers (14) than buckets (13).

That's what boxscore readers--even boxscore statisticians--tend to do.

Fesenko wasn't outstanding in the playoffs, but the Lakers didn't outscore the Jazz when he was on the court, and the Laker big men didn't pwn the Jazz much inside with Fes in there.

Fes came into the playoffs with the equivalent of Ostertag's rookie playing time, so he was essentially a rookie with no playoff experience. The thinking of the likes of Hollinger is what kept Fes's price down. Good for Utah.
