Pops Waived

[TMU]

Doesn't make sense, aren't we still over the luxury tax, and by a decent margin that Pops smaller contract doesn't have that much bearing on it? Whenever he came into the game, his energy was electric, even if it was in garbage time. Has to be more to this coming later - otherwise I have no clue why we'd do this.

It's possible if Pops didn't have a fully guaranteed contract. What this indicates is that Pops' presence isn't worth risking the luxury tax. After all, he's only a bench warmer who sees very little PT.

Maybe, Yao is ready to play. lol

I say a trading is progress.

Yeah, that's valid too.

Dork Elvis is lurking, like a sith lord in a statistician's cloak.

Beware. Trade's brewing. And don't expect to like it when you 1st hear about it.

Did you happen to see DE and Simmons' "breakup" on twitter last week? Epic.

[Smash3]

Why waive Pops? Seemed like a good hustling big that rebounded, on a small salary. :S Unless a trade is coming...

I was under the impression that his deal was guaranteed for only $50,000?

And Now, Pops has rejoined the the RAPTORS!!!!!!!

[Canucklehead]

All the Raptor fans loved this guy didn't they? Hopefully a team in need of rebounding picks him up. Thankfully a little extra rebounding power is always welcome on teams.

Yes we do and he's back! Thank You Houston!! Love the energy

[Rendezvous]

the only thing that would help us raptor fans if you took these guys

Brian Cook
Joey Dorsey

Yeah, thanks for giving us Pops back, guys. Obviously he's not the next coming of Hakeem (to randomly pick another African player our teams have shared), but the Raps really, really need him.

But any move your GM makes, I would tend to support it on principle. He's clearly got some magic statistical formula for winning in the face of massive injuries.

You're welcome. Now trade us Bosh and Evans for Mcgrady and Scola.

Good luck to Pops.
