"Austin Daye vs. Omri Casspi turned into a real wrestling match. Casspi just manhandled Daye, really threw him around. It was a bit disappointing to see how little Daye was able to compete from a strength perspective—Casspi is a kind of a skinny guy himself. At one point Casspi cut Daye’s lip open--he had to go to hospital for stitches. The Nets should have done a better job of getting someone to call fouls. Casspi was fouling the hell out of Daye. Some of the guys were looking at each other like ‘what are we watching here?’
Josh Heytvelt was also very good. He shot the ball great. He rebounded well, and he looked tougher than advertised. He doesn’t say much, but he’s pretty athletic and his skill level is very good for his size.

I got a feeling I’m really not goin to like this Casspi guy one bit. Sounds like a big version of Ginobli and could see him falling to the late first where the blazers/lakers/mavs are.

When will we know?
EDZ,
When will we know if he’s staying? I’m in and out all day and am hoping for good news!

Probably right around the deadline
It’s at 2 PM so anywhere from that 1-2 range. He is reportedly working out for the Knicks today and is going to announce after that according to andy katz.

sportscenter this morning said austin should definitely stay TWO more years and become a star, or else he’ll be playing D league for the next two years.
