lol goon

That was fun while it lasted.

It's understandable though, he was in constant pain. It was pretty shocking he made it back on time for the season and has avoided major injury since returning. Good luck big guy

So just cut him, if it has to do with constant pain. Now they're just tarnishing his image even more than necessary.
 
This kid was so good. It sucks that this just happens to trees, sometimes.

Eric Gordon for Andrew Bynum and CJ Miles. Where do I sign?

He skipped the team flight to Boston, that warrants a suspension.

 

[BwareDWare94]

I didn't see that he skipped the flight.

Eric Gordon for Andrew Bynum and CJ Miles. Where do I sign?

No where, because I wouldn't deal CJ Miles alone for Gordon.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

I'm pulling a bosox...I wouldn't trade for Gordon either.

 

[Pugz]

he was so young after his first injury it left a bad taste in his mouth. if he doesn't want to play anymore he should medically retire, though.

 

[RipCity32]

Maybe he wants to pursue a bowling career?

 

[RipCity32]

Apparently the Cavs are aggressively trying to trade him before January 7th. Something about his contract being guaranteed after that day or some shit. 

 

[Pugz]

no one will take him if he doesnt want to play.

 

[elcheato]

Only 6 million of his 12 million dollars is guaranteed before January 7th, once that day hits, the other 6 million is guaranteed.
 
For a team in the luxury tax right now, he's a target if they want to get under. They trade for him, cut him before the date, and they're off the books for 6 million.
 
I imagine he'll just get released.

 

[RipCity32]

Yeah I just read on Twitter than nobody wants him and that he is likely to be released. 
 
I'd take him off the bench with the Pistons. If he would actually play lol.

 

[elcheato]

He's not engaged at all when he isn't the focus. Having him as a bench player makes your team worse. You have to start him and focus your offense around him, or he's going to be unhappy, or just not focused.
 
Not good for any team that likes to run, either.

 

[Pugz]

but he wont play an honestly, he wont mesh well. i like jorts more for us.

i really dont know what team would be willing to make a trade for him.

 

[elcheato]

If the Nets decide they're done and want to get lower with the luxury tax, Bynum for Pierce would be a start. Would clear around 9-10 million once they cut Bynum. Don't think it happens though

Ive defended the hell out of andrew in my day

Still love him as a player

But he joins the long list of what ifs

R.I.P
