What are you smoking, you can't trade Austin, he is a free agent, who
can sign with any team he wants and could just walk away from any trade.
How stupid do you think that Pitino is that he would trade for a guy who
not only is not yet signed and has made it known that he only wants to
play in a warm weather climate. By the way according to the Miami
papers, Austin will probably sign with Clippers again after an initial
discussion he had with Elgin Baylor.
