Not a Joke! - Kareem Rush gets cut!!!

[ziggy]

It sounds like there was a heated meeting between Bernie and Kareem and the result was that Rush was handed his walking papers

Charlotte Observer Article

The end result is they could have got something for him a month ago at the trade deadline ( even a lousy 2nd round pick ), there were rumors that we could have even got Reggie Evans, but instead, our brilliant GM gets in n argument and cuts him and gets ZERO in return.

I agree we lose big time if this is true we could have traded him. The only thing good coach has done was giving Felton the keys at One guard.

Good riddance,

Now we don\'t have to be concerned with you missing games because of
* a hangnail
* skinned knees
* irritable bowel syndrome
* toothache
* ear infection
* menstrual cramps

Don\'t let the doorknob hit you Playa!

On a side note,

Which of these players do you think has the most to gain from Kareem Rush being cut? Which one will step up and prove to the team that they deserve heavy shooting guard minutes?

In my opinion
Matt Carroll: Likely, he has the outside shot, he gets to the line and works hard. To put it kindly however, he could improve on the defensive end.

Bernard Robinson: Maybe, theres been times in the second half of the season where BRob seems like hes been on the verge of \"getting it\". He really seems to be excelling when hes on the court with Felton and they are playing uptempo.

Alan Anderson: Not likely. There aren\'t really a whole lot of negatives to his game to gripe about, but I just feel that he needs some more court time before he could be counted on as a full time starter.

Opinions?

It looks like Phil Jackson might be interested in picking up Kareem.
