That's a good question. There's something about a degenerate old man throwing up a dozen shots without a care in the world that impresses me. Most people would admit their failures and quit; Larry Hughes? No, he continues to try even though he sucks. Props to him.

Hughes had a career threatening injury??? :o

31 is not that old.

Hopefully when he plays for any team he continues to try and this time, DON'T SUCK.

Well, he did a reasonably job here. I won't deny that he disappointed me in NY and Cleveland but I was satisfied with his limited contribution for us.

Eddie House is a good pick but Von Wafer? Boston, seriously? How are you going to choose awesome Larry Hughes over Von Wafer?

LA still wants Shannon Brown but if he signs elsewhere, Larry probably goes there. It's a shame too, I'd really like to see him here for a full season.

I know most of you won't be thrilled but I'll have a mini-party if he returns. Dude's awesome. Screw Boston Larry, come back to the team that gave you a chance.

ChrisMannixSI Not so sure about Larry Hughes for BOS. Good guy, but a big time chucker and overrated defender. Gambles a lot to get his steals.

Personally I would rather give the spot to a promising young undrafted player. :roll:
