Anthony Bennett undergoes knee surgery

Agree. Is he eligible to play for the Vipers? Is there a service time limit for D-League eligibility?

 

Here's another brick in the road to luxury tax savings. Since I guess the Clips hold his D-League rights, so long Mr. Bennett. I'd have liked to have seen what he could have done here.

 

Mike dantoni ain't got time for far"weed" and his shenanigans which is the reason he ain't get signed!

If they wanted far"weed" he would have been signed and perhaps the money Eric Gordon
Got could have been sent far"weed" 's way but Eric Gordon money went straight into Eric Gordon's pocket and far"weed" was sent packing!

Tell far"weed" to comb his hair!

 

Looked gud though.

 

We really need a big who is not sloth like that can shoot the 3.

DD

 

fwiw: D-League players who do not have NBA contracts are considered free agents by the NBA, and can sign with any NBA team regardless of what D-League team they are on.

Last year, Memphis signed Bruno Caboclo away from the Vipers.

 

The nice thing about Bennett is that he can do two things,

1. ROLL FOR DUNKS

or

2. POP FOR THREES.

Right now, we don't have one guy on the roster capable of both those things to really throw off the defense. Ryno and Clint are great, but predictable for the help. Bennett would be a massive wildcard because you would have to defend him honestly.

Bummed he wasn't able to show his new skills.

 

The Rockets can't lose his Anthony Bennett talent. A 3 point shooting Center, can dribble, has post moves, shot block, can switch in the paint. At least put him on the Injured list, rehab him, try him out.

 

no clue how there's people in this thread acting like he is something

 

a lot of people can’t help themselves from overhyping scrubs...it’s always the same “if he can just do things X, Y, and Z that he’s never been able to do then he can contribute”

 

you’re making him out to be some high level talent...Bennett is a scrub, if he goes then who cares

 

What shenanigans?

 

I think you must be confused, the folks you're talking about are all in the DMo threads

 

I guess it can apply to both lol

 

Dammit. Bennett was an intriguing pickup.

 

Fact check: he was off the bench in Dleague last year.
Chances he is relevant at NBA level are slim!! Sure, intruiging skill set, but unlikely anybody else signs him up whilr injured to sit on their bench. Let him rehab, then give him a 10 day?

So much fuss over a proven bust!!

 

Season over. Was hoping D'antoni would revive this guy's career.

 

If he could do all that he would have been chosen first in the draft.

 

The only person I did not see the hype applied to was MCW. Everyone knew he was a scrub even though he was wearing Rocket red.
