"In yet another sign that player agents either really believe that the NBA will lose games to a lockout next season, or that player agents are at the very least hedging their bets on a shortened schedule next season, ex-Grizzlies/Kings/Hawks/Wizards guard Mike Bibby(notes) has reached a buyout agreement with the Washington team that traded for him last week." -Yahoo
He was gonna make $6.2 Mil next year, but hes givin that up to hit up a playoff contending team.

Bibby was due to make $6.4 million next season, and he's in the midst of earning $5.7 million this year. The veteran guard clearly believes the up-front cash handed to him by the Wizards to forfeit the remainder of that deal, coupled with any money that he'd earn by signing with a new team for the rest of 2010-11, and whatever he earns in 2011-12, are enough to risk giving up guaranteed cash coming from the since-bought out contract he signed in 2009.
And what would any prospective NBA team pick up, should they sign Mike Bibby for a playoff run? A great shooter, as Bibby is hitting over 44 percent of his three-pointers this year, but little else. Bibby is a terrible defender at this point in his career, he doesn't ? or create much, and he's a terrible finisher in the lane. -
Good ? hopefully this will open up some PT for Crawford
