Worst player to demand a trade? 

Post#1 » by SaintofKillers » Mon Feb 4, 2008 5:35 am

This season's been marred by trade demands from some of the worst players in the league -- Marko Jaric (pre-Adriana Lima), Juwan Howard, JJ Reddick, Gerald Green, and now Jerome James -- prompting me to ask, who's the worst player to ever demand a trade? Jerome should be high on that list, I think, and no one seems close.

'Worst American-born player in the league today.'

'Worst player with two eyes.'

The answer to any 'worst ever' question will always be Jerome James.

he was asked what he thought about his coach calling him selfish, this was his response:

"I don't have the first clue who he is talking about, because all I worry about is Jerome."

At least DG was a pivotal part of LA's championship success. I remember he made some timely 3 pointers in their runs.

Rodney White asked to get out of Detroit.

Not much longer he was out of the league.

I only pray that Jason Colling secretly asked the Nets for a trade.

Gerald Green at least has some upside and had a good season, last year.

Devean George is having a horrid season, but hes in the last year of his contract making about 2.4 million.

JEROME JAMES is the winner. 88 games in 2 1/2 seasons, he sucks, hes making mid level money.
