Final 4 NBA Free Agents

With the 2010 NBA Free Agency buzz pretty much dead, there remains four former mega stars that have yet to find new NBA homes. Stephon Marbury who last played in China is still on the market, former scoring champs Tracy McGrady, Allen Iverson, and Shaquille O'Neal are also waiting on that phone call from an NBA GM. At this point in their careers, these players must realize whatever team picks them up, they're no longer the #1 option on offense. Here's my take to the four free agents available:

  1. T-Mac: Ten years ago T-Mac turned down the Bulls to sign with the Orlando Magic and only lasted with that organization for 4 years. This week T-Mac worked out with the Bulls and even has Derrick Rose and newly acquired Kurt Thomas saying positive things. Even McGrady talked as if he were already a part to this team. If McGrady can give the Bulls 20 minuets a night, that's fine with me. Hope he signs.
  2. SHAQ - At this point in the career of the Big Cactus, he's slow, lost his scoring ability, and lost the work ethic to play a full 82 games. Reports are the Atlanta Hawks will pick up the Diesel. We all know there's no going back to Cleveland. 
  3. Starbury - If the NBA were only a 1-on-1 game, Marbury would make A-Rod money. Over the years this shoot first point guard has found it difficult to catch on to an NBA team whereas he played his 2009-2010 season in China....WOW!!!!!! If Starbury can change his tone he could become a decent backup for...........The Miami Heat. He's cheap but still an excellent passer and ball handler (he's a NYPG duh) and he'll have no choice but to know his role.
  4. The Answer - AI revolutionized the game today because all the young ball player emulate his version of the crossover, the shoot first point guard, and stat stuffing. After a brief retirement last season the Sixers resigned him only to send him home a few months later. This 1st ballot HOF player should sign with a team that's on the cusp on an NBA Championship. The clock is ticking AI!!!!!     
Michael Finley, Sam Cassell, Clyde Drexler, Dennis Rodman are former stars that signed with championship teams which resulted in a ring. Let's hope these 4 player are smart enough to do the same.

Game Recap

It's been two days since I attended the Bulls/Pistons game which marked the return of Ben Gordon and the homecoming of Will Bynum. Kerry Wood was shown on the jumbo tron and the crowd booed him. This guy spent 10 years in this city and he did not deserved to be booed...he's one of my all-time favorite Cubs.

Now to the game...when Ben Gordon entered the game he was booed the first few possession he touched the ball but they didn't boo him the entire game. I thought more people would cheer for Bynum but then again only a small few followed him throughout his young career so far. Coming off a sprained ankle, Gordon was extremely passive but did lead his team in scoring with 16.

Watching Bynum and Rose guard each other was what I came to see. It was like watching Simeon vs. Craine all over. Rose had two highlight dunk and Bynum had a solid game and even threw a great lob pass to end the 3rd quarter which was taken away.

Overall the Bulls won but unfortunately they did not score 100 so no free Big Mac for me.

THE ANSWER IS BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
