He is already responsible for changing the Nets in one way: With Magloire's salary added to the payroll, the team waived energetic, second-year wing Hassan Adams just to get back under the luxury tax threshold. NBA teams with salaries exceeding the $67.8-million mark for 2007-08 will have to pay a dollar-for-dollar tax next year; removing Adams' unguaranteed, $687,456 salary gets the Nets down to $67.5 million. Though Thorn did not admit it, the move could have been avoided had the Nets found someone to take the guaranteed salaries of Mile Ilic ($850,000) or Bernard Robinson ($1.08M) off their hands, but there were no takers. "Trust me, nobody wanted this to happen," Frank said of the Adams move. "We loved Hassan." Thorn said his team still has to add another combo-guard type, but their primary free-agent target -- Jannero Pargo, late of New Orleans -- figures to be out of their price range. The Nets are likely to fill this vacancy with a player who falls through the cracks next month. 因為避免差一點點就通過豪華稅門檻， 籃網只能揮淚斬亞當斯... 而至於為什麼不砍Ilic or 小羅賓森 因為他們的薪水都已經是Guaranteed 受到保障的了 除非交易這兩個人，不然Waive是無法減薪幫忙的 但Thorn的說法是沒有球隊想要這兩人 所以沒辦法只好找亞當斯開刀 如果不早點砍 好像過沒多久亞當斯的合約就會變承受保障的了 法蘭克也認為沒人想見這事情發生 Thorn 也說球隊目前也會找一個雙能衛種類的球員遞補上來 目前最有興趣的是 Jannero Pargo 會跟黃蜂競爭取得他 http://0rz.tw/632Rg --
