Jonathan Bender making a comeback 

Post#1 » by wadero » Mon Jul 27, 2009 10:17 pm

Read that Jonathan Bender is wanting to make a comeback. I think we should give him a shot he is 6'11 to 7' 0 who could play the 3/4 and the 5. What do you guys think.

I think it's fitting that he's looking to make his comeback with the Knicks.
Morey 2020.

I played a 3 on 3 game with him at LA Fitness once
i think he's still got some game left in him. hes a pretty good three point shooter
and he dunked a few times too. he seemed to have lost a step or two though.
and he was a cool dude :D . but no to getting him.

I was enfatuated with Bender when he was with the pacers a few years back. He obviously didnt live up to his potential and was forced into early retirement because a knee disease. I dont see any way he will get resigned, and if he does I doubt he makes an impact.
