Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand the Chandler deal falls through.

http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=3917505 

From a different article somewhere that somebody C+P to me:

Quote
The Oklahoma City Thunder doctors have red-flagged a turf toe condition with newly acquired center Tyson Chandler and the New Orleans Hornets trade has been voided, league executives said Wednesday night.

?The doctors told him that he can?t do surgery on the toe, and it could be with him for a couple years,? one league source familiar with injury said. ?It?s not going to end his career, but it could hinder it.?

(Caps Lock Ahead warning)

GET ON THE FUCKING PHONE ED STEFANSKI AND OFFER THEM SAMUEL DALEMBERT NOW.  DON'T ASK QUESTIONS.  DO NOT PASS GO.  DO NOT COLLECT $200.  REPLACE ONE WITH WATSON IF YOU WANT.  I WANT THIS DEAL DONE AND DALEMBERT GONE.  PLEASE ED.  DO IT.

(Caps Lock terminated)

Sorry about that >_>

Despite the similarities between Chandler and Dalembert, I have heard nothing of them being interested in him.  Wilcox and Watson (didn't check the salaries) would be ideal, some beef with an expiring contract for this year in Wilcox and an additional year of a true PG in Watson as some Miller insurance.
