Straight from Flatbush
Nba is a cutthroat business

Kemba, wall, cousins, okafor etc.

If you can shut up and be ok with a few minutes here and there and be good in the Locker room you can stay around like boban, garret tenple , Taj Gibson
Kemba and Wall cashed out so they succeeded.. Everyone else you mentioned not so much

It’s crazy how fast things can change in the league. A year ago the Rockets were asking for a ist round pick to take back Westbrook for Wall. Now he’s getting straight up waived from a clipper team he was coming off the bench for who couldn’t wait to sign that same Westbrook and start him:wow:


That interview he did earlier this year where he was trashing teams prolly didn’t do him any favors either…

He can still play

It had to be some locker room shyt in LA
You missed when he completely shat on the rockets organization in a recent interview, right before he got sent back there.

He shat on the whole tanking/being the vet for the young guys role, when in reality that's the ONLY environment any team would want him in right now, atleast he'd have to ball out to get his rep back up, it was pretty instant karma for him when you look at the timing :mjlol:

I always thought he should’ve taken that first buy out offer with the Rockets as soon as he was offered (He hadn’t real basketball in years and needed to get up to speed quickly and prove himself)
Just showing out one year earlier with less wear and tear on your body could’ve got you a multi-year deal

eric bledsoe is in china and i'd say he's better than wall is right now
avery bradley started 45 games last year not in the nba
rajon rondo was decent last year not in the nba
elfrid payton in the g league
Nba is extremely competitive to get a roster spot especially for non rookies, but this leads me to the idea that the nba can benefit from an expansion

Pistons should’ve traded picked him up and moved Killian.

You telling me walls IQ alone and experience couldn’t help a young team like Detroit?
