Sources: Dwight was working out on the bike during practice

Hi, I'm Deckard, ace Blade Runner and currently retired. I've only been here over a decade, so obviously I'm new. My post was aimed at a couple of folks who have been here a while. They probably know who they are.

 

LMAO

you people are so r****ded

 

god forbid those close to the team actually follow it

 

I'm not saying it'd be right but think about from the players perspective. If it's me, sure I might be paid $88 mill but I took a paycut and signed as a free agent in good faith that certain things would happen....I might have a right to call foul on how things haven't played out according to those expectations.....

Again I doubt this is the reality, just playing devils advocate on the issue of players not risking themselves as much for organizations that don't take equal risk.

Thank you for this well thought out contribution. Your brilliance is clear and apparent to me. I'm going to save and bookmark this post. Copy and send it to myself each morning for inspiration.

 

just to add to the Canaan speculation he just tweeted this...

Got three large EGOS in that locker room, which will turn into a cancer first?

 

The writing is on the wall...the kid is getting traded...and he knows it. Its why Mchale hasnt played him. But in some sort of twisted logic, Mchale is trying to be nice.

 

Maybe, but i think the tweet itself is just referring to him not playing. I don't think he knows anything.

 

Might as well sit Harden and PBev and call up our D league gems for Saturdays game.

 

If he is tweeting that because he has been told he is being traded, then a trade will be announced very shortly. They wouldn't tell a player unless something was locked in.

More likely he is tweeting it because he can't control whether or not he can get on the court, all he can control is how he reacts to the disappointment of not playing, and so wants to react well, keep his 'chin up', and get on with it.

 

Hello Rondo!!!

 

This is what someone sane would conclude.

 

thanks for clarifying this for us. as far as i know, dwight was not on the bench during the game -- anything behind that you know of, or nothing to worry about?

 

how does it benefit to keep someone on the bench when you want to build up his trade value?

i'm not buying it.

i chalk up canaan's benching to mchale's incompetence and sheer stupidity.

 

Thanks Clutch.

Please keep us updated.

 

Wow. Seriously?

 

It still seems odd to me that he wasn't on the bench...was it really that important to ride the bike during the game? I would think you'd still want your veteran star on the bench pushing the team and giving your bigs some tips here and there.

 

To be suspicious is human, to let your suspicion run wild and consume you is insanity.

 

per the thread title, dwight was riding the bike during practice…..perhaps i missed it, was there any report here that it was during the game as well?
