Drew Gooden amnestied - option? 

Post#1161 » by pbj » Wed Jul 17, 2013 2:11 pm

Big body - 6'10 240
Can spread the floor
Kinda looks like Common
Spot minutes at C
Veteran presence with experience winning with the Cavs
Excellent facial hair management

Eh? Any takers?

Put him onto the "if we tank/trade Rudy" pile with Arenas.

I think we'd be better off with the actual Common.

Just say no to mediocre vets filling bench spots when we still aren't sure which direction the team is going.

On Gooden specifically, he's been a solid player his whole career, but fell off a cliff last year. I'd leave that reclamation project for someone else. Maybe back to Chicago or Cleveland.

I love how when anyone is amnestied or waived, someone on this board will offer him to our team.

If we didn't sign Hansbrough, he will be a great pickup.

No thanks. Years ago yes. I believe Gray is better than him so that is our low in rotation!

7.7 PER last year. Shot 32 percent. Wow he's never been good but that puts him in WOAT category.
