Rox waive T-Witter

Think anyone picks him up?

I'm thinking a stint overseas might get him focused.

Charlotte needs to sign him. I can get past his stupidity but there's too much talent there to pass up.

We now have two roster spots open.
Bye T-Will.

Gerald Green's second 10 day contract ends this weekend.
Hopefully Nets won't sign him for the rest of the year so we can pick him up.

That's what we've all been saying since he got here.

Every time something happened that we thought would get him to click he just seemed to regress. I thought for sure that not getting his option picked up would have put him in the mentality that he was now playing for his next contract; but instead we get reports of missing practice or skipping team meetings. When he did get some playing time a few games back he responded by skipping practice the next day (bringing on another string of DNP-CD).

I really hope that the guy figures it out because there is so much talent there.

I can't believe we lost him for nothing

I thought at least we would make a trade on draft day for a 2 rounder or something

He's an idiot, but to lose his talent for nothing?

If there was a trade market, we obviously would have traded him.

If we thought he was an all-star type player we wouldn't have cut him.

We may have thought that when we traded for him.

He's talented, don't get me wrong, but if you can't play for three of the better coaches in the NBA you just might want to look in the mirror.

2009 wasn't a bad class. I'd field a team of Griffin, Evans, Rubio, Curry, Derozan, Clark, Jennings.

Ok, maybe not Evans.

You forgot James Harden, Ty Lawson, Darren Collison, Jeff Teague, Jrue Holiday, Rodrique Beaubois, Taj Gibson, DeJuan Blair, Marcus Thornton

I can't believe we couldn't even get a 2nd round pick for him.

yeah he's at least worth a late future 2nd round pick. there's teams that can take a chance on him. maybe if dwight frickin howard wasnt flip floppin we'd get something useful. still, even that its strange. did morey just wanna get rid of him asap?

Yep, looking back it's a great class. That guy James Harden, might be the best player who came out that draft.,

I didn't forget Harden and Blair (I did forget Taj, but shouldn't have), I just didn't write them down when I actually got around to typing the post. :)

He and Griffin were actually the main ones I meant to mention, and he is.
