I liked the guy. Ironic he had his most minutes during the first game (22 minutes 5-8 13 points). He was an energy guy, worked hard and played nasty. I hope he finds another team - dude deserves it.

I think the Jazz might look at him on a 10-day towards the end of the season if there are some injuries (hope not) to the front court.

If they are looking at players, they ought to go after young players from the DLeague.

Mike was ok. He deserves a chance to play in Spain with Tomic.

 

[Doc Cherno]

I wonder if this signals a trade in the works?

 

[candrew]

Well, there goes our most productive player according to 82games.com

That is along the lines of what I was wondering. Why now? Just trimming the fat or setting up something bigger?

The tank thanks you mike.

I like how the guy played. Especially during that first game (he fouled out but was an OKC pest).

Utah didn't play him the past few weeks, so maybe they're trying to save money?

Or perhaps we're taking on more contracts? At any rate, he was a DeMarre Carroll-type player.

I wouldn't be surprised to see a DLeague dude come through here along with perhaps a trade of Marv and/or Jefferson or both.

Its cuz his first game was the most impressive. Dude was defending Durant like it was the last game he was ever gonna play.

He's a bit older now-- hopefully he can fulfil a role on another team. Best of luck to him.

Why now? Because his contract would have become guaranteed later this week, no?

January 10.

No, today's the last day to cut non-guaranteed players so they can clear waivers by January 10, which is when their contracts become fully guaranteed. A whole bunch of guys around the league are getting cut today (like Andrew Bynum) for exactly this reason. It signals absolutely nothing, other than we are keeping Diante Garrett and Ian Clark for the rest of the season.

I heard there is this D League dude putting up double digit points and rebounds, and blocking a lot of shots. French guy, I think. Yobert or Gogurt or something. Maybe we should give him a shot.

Ehh. He had one good game and then did not impress me (or the coaches) much after that. I expected this to happen.
