The Bucks requested waivers on forward Keith "Tiny" Gallon, former Notre Dame guard Tory Jackson and guard-forward Billy Rush
-------------------------------- When (Marcin) Gortat does try to showcase his offensive game with the Magic, he gets talked to by the coaching staff.
And that adjustment has not been easy for the 26-year-old big man.
"There are days when I'm about to explode and just say a couple of things or go to the coach and tell him what I want to do," Gortat said. "I feel like I'm one of the guys who has to sacrifice a lot to adjust to this team. I can tell you that it's not easy."
The Orlando Magic, meanwhile, are not overly concerned about Gortat's desire to play more offense.
"A lot of players feel that they can do more than what everybody's asking them to do," Howard said. "But you've gotta know your role. Teams that win championships, everybody knows their role."
----------------------------- The Atlanta Hawks have exercised the contract option for the 2011-12 season on second year point guard Jeff Teague. Executive Vice President and General Manager Rick Sund made the announcement earlier this evening.
---------------------------------- “This is my 13th season, so I can say that I really want to go through this year pain-free,” (Peja) Stojakovic said. “Next year I’m going to be 34, so I will sit down and make a decision on my next move in life, whether I am going to continue to play, which I would love to under one condition: that I’m healthy and that I feel physically right to continue.”
Is it possible, then, that this might be his last season in the league? “I don’t want to think about it,” he said. “It’s very hard for any athlete to think about that. I’m just approaching this year as another year in the NBA. I know that as the year goes by, you take hits on your body and you’ve got to accept that and make adjustments and roll with it.”
--------------------------- The Detroit Pistons announced today injury updates on forward Jonas Jerebko and guard Terrico White.
Pistons medical staff confirmed today through an MRI that Jerebko suffered a partially ruptured Achilles tendon on his right leg during the first quarter in last night's game at Miami. He is scheduled to have surgery on Friday, October 8 and is expected to miss the next five-to-six months.
