Flip Murray re-signed with the Seattle Supersonics yesterday, inking a one-year deal with the team. According to the Seattle Times, the Sonics offered Murray a multi-year deal similar to the one The Omen signed but, like Radman, he turned it down. Good move, Flip! Have fun working at a taco wagon next year with Latrell Sprewell.
In less exciting news, after taking pretty much the entire summer off for paternity leave, I have re-signed with Supersonicsoul. Terms were not disclosed, but it is believed to be a long-term contract worth at least four tacos.

Paul, I'm suprised you didn't take the one-year (chicken) tender offer.

Nice to see you back where you belong, Paul. Count me in the "Whatever" corner on this one. Whether the Sonics have Flip or not isn't really that vital to the team's playoff chances. Yes, it's nice to have Flip for a game or two if Allen goes down; but let's face it, if Sugar Ray misses more than half a dozen games, this season is toast anyway.

All O, No D.
Well, if I was Bob Weiss, this is how I would set the nightly rotation:
1ST QUARTER & 3RD QUARTER
6 Minutes
C Vitaly Potapenko
PF Reggie Evans or Danny Fortson*
SF Rashard Lewis
SG Ray Allen
PG Luke Ridnour
2 Minutes
C Nick Collison
PF Vladimir Radmanovic
SF Rashard Lewis
SG Ray Allen
PG Luke Ridnour
4 Minutes
C Nick Collison
PF Vladimir Radmanovic
SF Damien Wilkins
SG Ray Allen
PG Rick Brunson
2ND QUARTER/4TH QUARTER
4 Minutes
C Mikki Moore
PF Reggie Evans or Danny Fortson*
SF Damien Wilkins
SG Ronald Murray
PG Rick Brunson
2 Minutes
C Reggie Evans or Danny Fortson*
PF Vladimir Radmanovic
SF Rashard Lewis
SG Ray Allen
PG Luke Ridnour
6 Minutes
C Nick Collison
PF Vladimir Radmanovic
SF Rashard Lewis
SG Ray Allen
PG Luke Ridnour
*If restricted free-agent Reggie Evans re-signs with the Supersonics by agreeing to the qualifying offer, which is for one-year worth $1 million, then Rick Sund needs to thereby trade Danny Fortson -- as well as those useless foreigners: Peter Fehse, Mickaël Gelabale, & Paccelis Morlende -- for an overpaid stiff with an expiring contract (e.g., center Scot Pollard of the Indiana Pacers). Immediately thereafter, the team would waive, and subsequently release after having gone through waivers unclaimed, Pollard.
2005-2006 Projected Roster:
C Vitaly Potapenko [12 m.p.g.]
C Mikki Moore [8 m.p.g.]
C Robert Swift [NBDL]
C Johan Petro [NBDL]
C/PF Reggie Evans or Danny Fortson [24 m.p.g.]
C/PF Nick Collison [24 m.p.g.]
PF Vladimir Radmanovic [28 m.p.g.]
SF Rashard Lewis [32 m.p.g.]
SF Damien Wilkins [16 m.p.g.]
SG Ray Allen [40 m.p.g.]
SG Ronald Murray [8 m.p.g.]
SG Tre Simmons [Inactive]
PG Luke Ridnour [32 m.p.g.]
PG Rick Brunson [16 m.p.g.]
PG Mateen Cleaves [0 m.p.g.]
Anyone have a take on Tim Grgurich wanting out of Portland?

Looks like Nate's cleaning house down in Portland. Any value for us to acquire someone like him as an assistant?
