But if I am right, I would just as soon cut him loose as soon as possible.
I agree, dond.
He (or his agent) put a lot of pressure on himself by not signing the contract the Sixers offered. He's trying to prove he's worth an amount that he isn't worth, that has to be frustrating.
He expected to play and put up numbers like a legit max (or close) contract player, which he isn't. I'd go so far to say he's embarrassed about the whole contract situation, and some people don't respond well to embarrassment. This is what we're seeing.
I think he's got his mind on his money and his money on his mind 24/7
Perception isn't reality, and I'm no psychologist but that's how I see it... but I'm a cynical mofo that thinks $$$ is the root of everything.
