Said it long before this injury and was ridiculed for it. I'll stand by it until I am proven wrong (I can only hope that I am). Mechanically, his body is ill-equipped for the rigors of an NBA season (the team even went so far as hire a kinesiologist to re-teach him how to walk). Heck, the poor guy has missed significant time, each and every year dating back to his senior year at Spartanburg Day High School (six years ago).
Now, it seems that 25% + of our cap space is tied up over the next five years on a part-time player (at best) if the last six years is an indicator.
I'll bet the reason we didn't make a trade last week is because we need all the first round draft picks we have to get cheap rookie contracts to fill out the team.
