    I remember Omri Casspi from the HORSE game when he was a rookie. Poor guy was no match for Durant and Rondo.

    Caspi was really promising his rookie year. Not sure what happened.

    Birther Alert! Do you also think Malcolm X is Obama's dad?

    He probably didn't even vote for Jeremy Lin to be an all-star!

    I think he'd be a good rotation player on a lot of teams. In fact the Lakers or Utah may be a good fit.

    Not sure if its a coincidence... but why did evans, cousins, and casspi all have pretty great rookie seasons, but then just regress significantly afterwards? It must have to deal with the attitude/ personnell around them

    As bad as Chandler Parsons has played lately, I'd take Chander over Casspi any day of the week and twice on Sunday.

    Who the hell is he to request/demand anything? Does he actually think they can find a trade partner? He is lucky the dont just cut him.

    Truly a momentous event and a history moment for the Jewish community. I shall mark this down on my calendar and tell my grandkids that I was there when this happened.

    well he was actually drafted with the pick the Rockets traded to the kings as part of the Artest trade.



    I am a bit surprised thought that he went from starting and being a useful rotational player to not playing at all. I understand starting for the Kings is not the most glamorous starting gig in the NBA but he was trading to the Cavs who aren't overflowing with talent themselves. I thought he'd still be coming off the bench somewhere.

    I am sure some time may take a chance on him -- I am not sure the situation in Cleveland if he isnt playing just so one of their own higher draft picks/prospects can play instead
