    Either that or roam around the streets at night with shotguns mounted on his back. He is not mentally fit enough to play in this league.

    The Celtics are the team that drafted Delonte West. He was a Froot Loop from the very beginning though not as much as now.

    I wonder if West is like Tyson in that the meds take away from his ability to excel at his profession. Bi-Polar meds make you lethargic and docile -- to compete in a pro sport I don't see how you could take such strong meds and succeed.

    The downside of course is you act crazy when you are off the meds.

    nah, the lakers are loaded on pgs Nash, Blake, Duhon, Morris and Goudelock. Plus rumors are that they are trying to bring Fisher back as backup.

    This might just be the perfect time for Morey to finally net a big-name player

    You're right, he might not be a bad guy.
    But he is mentally unstable. And he's proven it time and time again.

    True hope he gets it together. It's crazy that while in college you never saw him acting like this. I know it was St. Joseph but they got a good amount of coverage his last year there.

    He'll be in prison before the end of the decade.

    It wouldn't make sense to "weasel" their way out of contract given that he just had a productive year and he's making minimum salary.

    To me, it sounds like the Mavs just don't think his talents are worth his baggage anymore. It seems preposterous they would suspend him if he didn't do anything wrong, I think that getting signed to a minimum really rubbed him the wrong way and made him extremely disruptive to the squad, and I guess a lot of players complained and wanted him out, otherwise you'd have sympathetic tweets from his homies on the squad.

    Anyway, I kinda' feel bad for him, getting the "disruptive" tag kills careers in the NBA. Teams will sign bums like Curry, Rasheed Wallace or Hasheem Thabeet any day of the week but they'll stay away from "cancer" guys like Starbury, AI or that dude who said he can't feed his family with 9M a year.

    He needs to team up with Jameer Nelson again.
