My apologies 2210 - I did not notice your location, I realize it takes the Pony Express an extra day to make it to Jersey.

The Hollis thread that got shut down was just starting to roll. That one had real possibilities...

Very excited for Hollis. I guess he knew what he was doing when he decided to leave early and the opinion of a GM like Presti carries a lot of weight. He knows what will work in the league and what will not. Sorry to hear Hollis's condition was mis-diagnosed, but I am glad it did not really hurt his opportunity to be successful. How many second round players can claim guaranteed money right now with a full season to prove themselves?
Well done, Hollis, I wish nothing but the best for him.

I'll look forward to the extensive coverage this story should receive in tomorrow's OKC papers.

With the Harden deal, OKC now has two open roster spots, so one would assume that gives Hollis a decent opportunity to be re-signed.

He's still under contract with guaranteed first year money so I'm not quite sure how it works this being the case

Hollis had very little guaranteed money - $75k. That's nothing in the world of sports contracts.

I actually don't wish Hollis stayed. Hollis's leadership will be missed but I think Greg is a plus defender and will be able to spread his wings on offense this year. I was hoping Henry would make it since the Knicks big men are injured and/or old as dirt.

Just an example of a pretty good college player who left early but never played one game in the NBA. I hope this is not the case for Hollis. He was a nice player for us. Hollis had one of the most unique Hoya matriculations ever. Gray shirt and early entry. Don't see that every day.
