Re: Vin a Celtic
Vinny just dumped Falk as his agent and hired a Seattle based agent who
also represents Gary Payton. His reasons for dumping Falk is that the
Evil Hand is always in DC and and he wants a degree of 'personal touch'
in Seattle from his agent. Seems like he is inclined to remain with
the Sonics despite his prounouncement of wanting to return to New
England. Bummer!
