On January 10th, all players with their teams since the beginning of the 
season have their contracts become guaranteed for the rest of the year. 
Waiving Szabo frees up his salary (league minimum) for the remainder of 
the year, and the team can resign him to 10 day contracts later.

Thomas hamilton is out there again (cut by the bulls).  So is Dawkins. 
Others include Benoit Benjamin and (I think) dwayne Shinzius.

This may be true.  If the  Celtics get an exemption for half of Dino's 
salary + Szabo's salary + the difference between augmon and brown's 
salaries - they could have close to 4 million to offer Williams - which 
might get it done.
