The sad reality about the Leon Powe decision
redsarmy.com 7/1/2009 — I hate that Leon Powe was not offered a contract. Hate it. But I get it. Had the Celtics offered, and Powe accepted, the qualifying offer from the Celtics... they would have been on the hook for about $1.6 million dollars when you combine the contract and luxury tax. It's ...
C's to Powe: "‘Good luck with another team"
redsarmy.com 7/1/2009 — I still say that when it comes to pure business... not offering Powe a qualifying offer was the right move.

Wizards Should Be a Go For Leon Powe

Oh yeah... Lester Hudson was in town today
redsarmy.com 7/2/2009 — So we've been going nuts today with the Rasheed Wallace/Leon Powe stories... we almost overlooked the fact that Lester Hudson was in town today.

nba musings
I’m sick about this. It now occurs to me that my two favorite players in the NBA do not play for the Boston Celtics (James Posey and Leon Powe). I’m shocked by the Celtics decision to not extend Powe a qualifying offer. Powe’s agent said it best:

Leon Powe is Unemployed
As someone who advocated giving Sean May another chance to come back from injury, I'd be crazy not to advocate giving Leon Powe a shot. This upcoming season will be a tough slog, but after that? Whichever team gets him should "redshirt" him for most of this year, ...
