FIRE HENNY

The signing of Ben Gordon was a big, big mistake by Hennigan...paying out millions to an old washed-up player who has a questionable attitude...and will want minutes. Terrible move by Hennigan. :banghead:

I'm OK with Ridnour...he'll sit the bench mostly and is cheap.

with over 10 yrs in the league, he should provide some quality knowledge to Elfrid. 3rd PG

and.... what does this have to do with ridnour? And how many times do you need to repeat the same thing before gordon even has one practice with the team?

Excellent shooting stroke... A threat from beyond the arc... Looks for his shot first... Very creative at that... Excels in transition game... Quick hands... Lacks strength... Overmatched physically... No mean streak... Very poor defender.

This team is going to be fun to watch

lol did you really need to look up the scouting report on him? He's been around forever.

Crazy pass from his Seattle days. Certainly wouldn't mind him showing Dipo and Elfrid a thing or two.

This is what I'll be rolling with on 2K15 (lol):

Payton/Ridnour/Fournier
Dipo/B.Gordon/Green
Harris/Harkless/Marble
A.Gordon/Frye
Vooch/KOQ

Run and gun, with vet shooting off the bench (and some wing defense with Hark).

Well, technically 6 million. Still had to pay him 2 million to leave.

Never watched one of his games. His teams were always crap.

That would be a mistake, Fournier is a beast shooter on that 2k14, whenever i use the magic i swear hes always either my leading scorer or hes second

I always felt Jameer and Luke were pretty much the same player.

I'm certainly open to it, but let's see the contract details first.

(And all of you just know that he is gonna be signed for a little longer and for more money than any of us expected.)

I know he is going to destroy our cap space for this whole one year. So terrible. OMG.

Ridnour is a solid guy, Payton could learn some NBA tricks from him. Should be a decent contributor with the minutes he gets. I'm ok with his signing. Would have preferred someone to get a little buzz going, maybe a Nate Robinson type but he's not a free agent to my knowledge.

I'm hoping you're right. I'd like to see Payton getting some burn this year. Oladipo isn't a PG in my eyes.

The Ben Gordon signing makes me think that Hennigan believes otherwise. We shall see.
